What city would that be? Fellow francophone catholic here :)

What founders are you referring to? Do you realize this is about a legal decision in Brazil?

What's the first?

Terrible for Portuguese speakers, as it sounds like a popular alias for penis

Yet Another Post Against Chrome. Yes it's bad and it spies on us but it's also damn good for web development and so far I've found no decent replacement :)
