Telling someone they're biased must be the most low-effort comment there is. Everyone is biased about any subject where they have even a nuanced self interest in. And in your case,…

"which cost almost nothing for low traffic" you invented the retort "what about high traffic" within your own message. I don't even necessarily mean user traffic either. But if you…

They're always more common in metro areas of the US. You must be from a relatively rural area and don't get out of it much. That said, uh, the use of getting a taxi to drive you to…

I don't know that I agree that it's crazy. Any time I see a base64 encoded string, I decode it, because I want to know what's in there and what I'm working with. Don't use b64 if i…
