What is the best style electrical outlet?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schuko
I've used many plugs and in my opinion, the schuko plug is the one that makes the most sense.
Reverse Polarity (can't use it the wrong way, and you can turn it in case some power adapted is in the way)
also the symmetry makes it look more pleasing
only 2 pins stick out (the ground is in the body, 2 pins are a reduced area of failure in case you drop it.
very good and secure fit

Americans are asleep, post European windows
Honestly, I think the verti slide windows make for a better breeze infrastructure than the tilt windows , because the tilt windows can be force shut by sudden strong winds.
And in the summer when I need a strong breeze at night and have to fully open the windows, I have to hold them open with a chair or something because they will slam-shut in the middle of the night.
I complain a lot about silly american building stuff but in the case of breezes, I think the verti slide is superior.
Also, they're more adjustable. Euro windows can do tilt or open, but the vertical slide windows have a range.

I miss the old days where a macbook came with a bunch of creative apps that kids in the 60s-90s dreamed of.
That innovative creative freedom train is long gone from that company

What's the best tool available on Linux for downloading Spotify albums without DRM?
I absolutely love how Much easier it is to pirate music over Spotify. Artists don't get shit either way.
