My older sister showed me the hand-in-blender pic when I was like 12 and I can still picture it in my mind. All these years later I still haven't stuck my hand in a blender -- thanks, sis!

Done! Wouldn't have bothered voting if I hadn't read your comment, so thanks for sharing. Voting was really easy, just had to enter my member number and zip code.

Excellent service, highly recommend! I pay for the "Lite" plan which is dirt cheap and allows me to create aliases under my own domain. So my accounts all have unique email addresses and I know when a company sells my contact info because I start receiving unsolicited spam to that alias. I use aliases for temporary needs too, like RSVPing to events, and I deactivate them afterward if I never want to hear from the organizers again.

It also recommends a Chinese browser which IMO is a lot worse than using an American browser.

Doubtful the UK will be first choice for many Americans after it neutered itself with Brexit.

Good question, but we pay close attention to the news and hopefully we'll get out before that's a problem. If we're unable to leave the country then I guess I'd contact the Swedish embassy to see if they can help.

Chile. Maybe it's because I'm American but nobody there was interested in talking to me, sharing their culture or learning anything about me. I tried multiple times but all my interactions with Chileans were purely transactional and most of them seemed annoyed to have to deal with me. I've been to ~25 countries and wouldn't bother returning to Chile.

I've never understood the appeal of Target. There's a huge Target 60 seconds down the street from me and I never shop there except to get one or two items. It's expensive, has a ridiculously small grocery section while clothing takes up half the store, and they're so worried about shoplifters that they have multiple security staff standing at the door giving everyone leaving the stink eye.

Not preparing at all, just living my life like normal. When things get really bad here I'll sell my car and move to Europe with my girlfriend (I have dual citizenship and can sponsor her).

Haha yeah, maybe Qobuz was hinting that my taste in music is trash! I do appreciate the occasional Johnny Cash though, just not mixed in with my deep house!

As for the recommendations algorithms... You no longer have to read artist bios/interviews or suffer through radio programs, instead you effortlessly get a list of recommended tracks based on whatever song or playlist you specify. It works so well that I don't really follow any artists these days and currently all my top 30 tracks are by artists I didn't know existed two months ago. It also allows you to deep dive into new and obscure subgenres with basically no effort.
