Pirate it since the Devs were screwed over.

I completed up to rule 13 but couldn't do 14 because I couldn't load the image of the country.

Here is my attempt, with the CAPTCHA at the end: Hqh$mayVVIIshellyPb🌖55-y5w28

That will be even more susceptible to malware because Linux is easier to hack than iOS or Android. Linux has a weak threat model against malicious software.

As the title says, I was wondering what the URL is for AudioBookBay. Is it the one that ends in ".lu" ?

Appimages use the deprecated fuse2 dependency, never integrate well on the system, and run unsandboxed. I personally hate them.

For real, a good font.

Adamant transphobe, but in that insidious way where they justify letting people get bullied in the Discord because their "not on anyone's side and value different opinions". A trans person in the Discord server was targeted by another member and intentionally misgendered repeatedly. They spent multiple blogs basically saying "people are snowflakes, we dont want an echo chamber". Like wtf. (IIRC, working off my memory since I read about it like 2 months ago)

I do not agree with the Dev who stepped down.

But on the topic of C, I wouldn't measure the quality of a language based on its adoption. C is a relatively old language and therefore benefits from getting wide-use before other languages were born. It will never die because who would ever want to rewrite every project in existence in another language.

Memory safety is very important since it has consistently been one of the largest sources of vulnerabilities throughout software history.

C is not a bad language, but it has flaws. Performance at the cost of safety is not a good trade-off in most scenarios. There is no such thing as a "perfect programmer" who won't make mistakes.
