Went on Amazon and found a Seagate barracuda 8TB drive for 130€

Probably not the best for an actual server, but for a personal NAS seems reasonable

They are the most efficient way of transporting goods on land. Using huge cargo ships si still the most efficient way, once the distance is far enough and the volume high enough.

It's not only about copying or distribution, but also use and reproduction. I can buy a legit DVD and play it in my own home and all is fine. Then I play it on my bar's tv, in front of 100 people, and now it's illegal. I can listen to a song however many times I want, but I can't use it for anything other than private listening. In theory you should pay even if you want to make a video montage to show at your wedding.

Right now most licenses for copyrighted material specify that you use said material only for personal consumption. To use it for profit you need a special license

Copyrighted material can be used or reproduced only with a license that allows for it. If the license forbids you from using the copyrighted material for business purposes, and you do it anyway, then it's pirating.

Oh I feel you, I too think it's overpriced, also I think it tastes like shit.

Pretty sure Red Bull is Austrian fwiw.

Anyway, there are lots of Irish, Scottish, English whiskeys. Don't know about honey flavored ones

It's definitely dangerous if you don't know what you are doing. As in, "you can die" kind of dangerous.

But if you know what you are doing, nah, it's perfectly safe, and kind of easy to do too.

Probably most definitely illegal in most places too, but if you just shut the f up and don't blabber about it to everyone you meet or try to sell or give it away, there's pretty much nothing they can do about it, cause they don't know about it, and neither does anyone else.

It was a fully unified country way before 1929, unless you are counting Alto Adige and Trieste as conditio sine qua non to have a fully unified Italy, which I wouldn't.

As for the Vatican situation, the Italian kingdom completely conquered and annexed the papal state in 1870 (Breccia di Porta Pia).

In 1929 the Pope formed an alliance with Mussolini to get a state in exchange for the approval of the fascist government from the Church (and other stuff, but that's the gist of it)

It's a small one, but if you're ever in Italy, it might warrant a visit (depending on time and route). The medieval old town built on top of mount Titan is really beautiful and the view from the walls is breathtaking.

San Marino had a constitution in 1600, was a republic a lot longer than that, and it's still an independent republic. So it's very arguable

With the Guano Act the US "acquired" lots of islands all over the world. Choose one of those bird shit covered rocks and put him on there

I'm like, wait, what happened in the 1930s that meant the wipeout of the republicans and what happened in the next 60 years?

Oh yes, an overinflated market crashed during the republican presidency, the burst ignited by the proposal of a tariff increase law, made to shield American industries and that was actually signed into law and significantly worsened the great depression. This pretty much caused the rise of Nazism in Germany and WW2

What happened then in the next 60 years? Oh yeah, the US won the war and became the biggest world superpower, the economy boomed and you had pretty much the most prosperous time in America's history.

Maaaaybe a republican wipeout isn't that bad now, is it?
