I'd put a question mark at hobby equipment, since hobbies help with destressing and contribute positively to mental health.

Same for books (assuming you consider reading relaxing). Unless you pirate ebooks of course to bypass Amazon purchases and the likes.

Sounds like you have no idea how shares work.

I've had them in Nigeria where you basically just boil them peeled in salt water and then mix into freshly boiled rice and eat it with some type of beef stew as a main course, and in China where you boil them with their shell in a mixture of water with black tea leaves, dried chillies, Sichuan peppers and salt, then let them cool down and eat as a snack.

Fully agree, ideally sardines in oil or mackerel in tomato sauce with peas (not sure the latter is a thing outside of northern Europe?).

Toast needs a health layer of butter to keep the sauce from mushing it up as well.

Didn't actually know about Aqua Panna, that's the only one I occasionally consume when going to a fancy Italian place where this is the default when ordering still water.

I'd say a good 90% of the rest is completely unknown to me. All the rest that I do know seems to be overprocessed junk food that's easily avoided by buying fresh ingredients exclusively.

Streaming sucks, I need to own my content. 1080p and higher download quality only.

I doubt every single employee was involved in downloading that.

Triggered me to do a quick check:

Their privacy policy looks alright; and while I don't like ads, they are gone in the minimum donation package of just 1 EUR, I think I did that just shortly after I started using them. https://www.lonelycatgames.com/docs/xplore/privacy - all the other parts seem privacy respecting, and the company is based in Slovakia, so has to respect GDPR by default. Website looks very dated and some of the other software has been abandoned a while ago, but they clearly state that and offer it as-is. Funny enough, I've also been using Disk Map for ages and never realized it's from the same developer.
