Good to know! What's the practical use for a L2 VPN?

Ah, I didn't know that was possible. I don't think it was last time I used iPhone circa 2019 or so.

Functioning ad block, background video playback, to name two extensions that are very useful on mobile.

Nowadays Wireguard is a more performant protocol, but it does the same thing.

So the average human is, what, 0.05 HP?

It's called honing and you can hone a blade on a piece of leather, like an old belt. It's not sharpening per se, but it keeps the little burs on the blace's edge lined up nicely so it stays sharp and if kept up, prevents the need to sharpen with something more aggressive like a sharpening stone (or the bottom of a coffee mug in a pinch).

No singular entity.

My Level 8 solution after about an hour:

And an honorable mention to this clue:

My attempt which worked for Level 7:

Stuck on Level 8, though.

You're most certainly right, but a pirate can dream...

I'm talking about double-edge blades that fit into a handheld razor that looks a lot like a Gilette or Bic, except it's all metal, and about 2% of the price per blade, not a straight "safety" razor that you might see a professional barber use.

They probably shaved about the same but mostly used double-edged (100% steel) blades that could easily fit in a slot, rather than the plastic-clad, quadruple-blade nonsense sold for $8/cartridge.

You can still buy double edged razors for about 10-15 cents apiece, by the way.

But my ActiveX applets!

I was initially skeptical but if they actually sold lossless, Blu-Ray quality rips of videos, I'd pay more than a few bucks per movie or show for that.

Would it help to run it under WSL?

I'm not surprised. I guess they follow on Google's footsteps of anti-competitively neutering search results for things like weather and stocks from Firefox for Android vs. Chrome, which work fine if your change the user-agent. -_-

can't, or won't?

It's amazing what you can accomplish by exploiting Chinese immigrants to do the most dangerous work for $1/day (half of what white Canadians were paid for less dangerous work) (source).

So building a high performance rail network in the 21st century will cost a lot more, but it will still be worth it.
