There is no such thing as a "good reputation" datacenter ip. They should all get blocked by anyone who cares about bots.

You're assuming the owner rented the VPS to run the but but it's more likely intended for something else and is infected with malware / some intern being cute. After all there are cheaper plans than DO.

Starlink bot here, but you won't see me because I'm behind a VPN

Their API business model seems to be hope enough people accidentally go over free tier: $0 for the first 5000 monthly places lookups, $40 per 1000 after that

It's been criticized, but "time since last meal" is still known to be a predictor of harsher sentences (even when you control for legal representation / severity).

I'm convinced that those weird purple blotches on POTUS's hands are caused by transfusions from his blood boy.

I thought you were going to say skibidi toilets.

The labor Waymo reduces is Uber drivers. How is that me basically? I'm not an Uber driver.
