Same in the Netherlands. There's a couple more sites like that. Just a blank page or a 403. I guess it's their way of complying with gdpr. You'd expect them to have a courtesy page but nope.

Then again those courtesy pages are condescending as gently caress anyways "out european visitors are important to us and we are working on a way to deliver our conc
ent bla bla" yeah sure thing bud, it's only been 2 and a half years. Aaaaany day now.

Blocking European visitors is the correct reaction to being told to put up a cookie warning popup.

first octet is 70, BGP AS6327. it resolved itself after about a day and a half but that was definitely an annoying period of "the internet just doesn't work anymore because one company dominates an entire type of service"

i worked as a line cook once for three years and it sucked. a lot of people can't handle kitchen work but i did alright. i'd be completely exhausted after every shift though.

oh yeah kitchen work sucks. with low and slow bbq there's probably other challenges but at least you aren't trying to rush out 100 tables in a 4 hour dinner services. the two biggest downsides seems to be the constantly monitoring the fire/shoveling coals and and you have to wake up at 2 AM every day.

wearing a mask might help. it helps a lot with particulate pollution (as i learned living in a hyper-polluted city in china)

that one isn't mine i just found it, i've never been to the dolomites myself (yet), but i've been to the alps a few times. it's inspiration for places i'd like to visit sometime. the other pics i've posted are ones i've taken though
