I would also like to point out that English spelling is obsolete and should be abolished (/s). The text of the CRLF abolition proposal itself contains more digraphs, trigraphs, diphthongs, and silent letters than line-ending sequences.

The latter. Plus 2 EUR/month for ad-free video. On top of 50 to 90 EUR/year for Amazon Prime. If we consider it as a sneaky way to increase prices, it's less steep than YouTube Premium price hike. At least you can ignore Prim

If learning durations were log-normally distributed, how would people be able to graduate from universities and finish studies, mostly in time? Or accomplish anything substantial in their limited time span? I agree that distribution of most

That's a valid observation, but if getting a 12-pack of identical decks is not a problem, it's enough to build 13 custom decks (all Aces, all 2s, etc). Edit: if the players can announce only what suit they are buying and selling b
