I don't want to make a separate comment since I am also not from US, but damn, this sounds overblown to me. Especially for someone who's just related to your friend.
And especially from a student, since students are generally quite poor.

Not sure if you'll find something that cheap, but RackNerd has some pretty cheap offers sometimes. Thing is, they don't seem to expire, so there's this: https://racknerdtracker.com/?sort=price

But I haven't tried them yet.
Also keep in mind the monthly bandwidth limits.
You get what you pay for, and $10/year is basically nothing.

Oh, and you may be responsible for random people's traffic depending on the provider. I think I've read in ToS of some VPS provider that you have to notify them about running a public service for this reason.

I don't use it, but Slovak QWERTZ is the standard in my country. But using it feels like a pain in the ass (for me). Some characters need ctrl+alt rather than just shift, others may only be written with alt codes, at least on Windows...

Part of my graduation exam was literally to just type \ % @ & on a computer. Thankfully for me, settings wasn't blocked, so I just added US layout.

If I need some slovak characters I do either one of the following:

1. Say "fuck it" and write it without diacritics ("like SMS")
2. If needed in forms, use KCharSelect
3. Smartphone virtual keyboard
4. Like 1 but printed on paper with diacritics added using a pen
5. Write it in English even if I am not supposed to and wait for the outcome
6. Write it in English, pipe it to Google Translate (I find writing in English mostly easier anyway - doesn't mean I am good at it)
7. Write it in English, (attempt to) translate it myself
8. Good ol' pen 'n paper all the way (I mean, I've got a fountain pen too)

Where did you hear that?
So far I've only heard about teaching kids how to use it as a tool rather than trusting everything it says, or even replacing a human. And I'd agree on that. Too many people (by far not just kids) take what ChatGPT, Gemini and chatbots alike say for granted.

I sometimes get this with Mullvad in official YouTube app as well.

Any chance he might be used to a different name? Like [L]R03 (L for alkaline ones).

So, what are you in prison for?

There is no deal on the table I think that they will want me on it for at least another 2 years before release is considered

OK, 2 years or 6 years then?
Anyway, your legal team has said there is a chance. Only one way to find out.

Really, what are you going to loose? Excessive sex drive?

Well, I can't directly answer yes/no. I think that refusal should lead to more restrictions on your freedom. I don't mean this as a punishment, but more so as a protection measure, of others.
You need to understand that you are currently unsafe as-is, and try to work on fixing that.

Searching about the specific drug (for risk assessment), hard to tell for me. I am not a medical doctor. I don't even know the dosage and length of treatment (in case it's not long-term).
It does seem like one of the riskier drugs, but do they outweigh the other risks?
It also seems to be commonly used by MtF trans people (it's a T blocker, so it makes sense). If the risks are worth it in those cases, I'd wager it's worth in yours too.

And from Wikipedia:

In addition, it has been found to decrease the rate of reoffending in sex offenders from 85% to 6%, with most of the reoffenses being committed by individuals who did not follow their CPA treatment prescription.

Sounds effective.

I encourage you to go ahead with it. If that attraction/desire is so strong that you cannot control it yourself, this will most likely help you feel better too. At least that sounds logical.
Plus you should obviously get some psychological help too, not just meds. You can't really loose anything by going to therapies, except for a few minutes of time.

Unfortunately, you can't fix the past, but you can work on the future. You won't seem weak by trying to get help, quite the contrary. Don't bullshit others and yourself with excuses. So please, do go ahead with the treatment. It's not just for others, it's not just for you, but for both.

Also, maybe it would help if you read or listened to some stories of survivors, and try to imagine yourself on the victim side instead, to build some empathy. You didn't steal someone's wallet, sexual abuse creates lifelong trauma.

Again, I am not MD, psychologist or even some good writer, but it sounds like a good choice from the options you currently have.

Description of how tritium smells like by Cody's Lab: https://youtube.com/shorts/PvRP3Jor19M

I wanted to say allergies, but I am not sure you mean abnormal stuff too.

Breathing otherwise. Annoying + can't stay underwater for long enough.

Though if add, direct thought + feeling sharing. Current communication is way too inefficient.

If random source is to be trusted, it cost $34,500 in 1957. You could lease it for $3,200/month. The 2TB card is $180 in 2025.

Adjusted for 2025:
2TB MicroSD: $180
5MB HDD: $398,852.50 or $36,995.01/month

Adjusted for 1957:
2TB MicroSD: $15.70
5MB HDD: $34,500 or $3,200/month

Well, not for KDE it seems.

I was referring to the ?i=number part, just like google uses si for YouTube.

Isn't it called Meta?

Now I wonder if there are motherboards with easily re-flashable firmware (from a read-only device that couldn't be tampered with).

Probably just an identifier for tracking who ran it.

Possibly.
BTW, certain malware may be able to break out of a VM.
On the other, some malware may recognize that it is being run in a VM and do absolutely nothing to avoid analysis.
