No, it's sites gatekeeping their dodgy tracking cookie policies.

US companies don't want to comply with data protection rules of other territories, so they block our access, just so they can continue their exploitative tracking

What item do you own that has an unexpectedly high value? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

I have a lot of family military memorabilia, several pre world war 2 medals, one of the British military crosses (might be Victoria Cross), sword of honour from Sandhurst, signed documents/certificates from George VI.

I haven't got it all valued together, but I know the pre WW2 medals are £4k+ alone. I'd guess it's probably all worth ~£10k but it's nothing I'd ever sell, so it might as well be worth nothing, as I won't be liquidating that money.

I was playing Minecraft on and off since the alpha, and refused to upgrade to Microsoft account. I bought computer lego, not a Microsoft tracking app.

Noodles are synonymous with east Asian cuisine, come in varieties such as soba, egg, glass, upon, etc.

Pasta is synonymous with Italian cuisine and comes in varieties such as penne, tortellini, spaghetti, rigatoni, etc.
