I don't really care about that. Python3 usually comes pre-installed, but not always sh comes preinstalled, nor bash.

For some reason there are a few channels that I'm subscribed, but their new videos don't appear on my feed...
Either YouTube shadow-bans them (which I doubt), or the feed is badly made and omit those videos randomly (or from other channels)...

And I don't know where to start.

> Taxes are applied every time money changes hands.
That's not true. If I give you a 20€ bill in person, nobody is taxing that money again, it's already taxed when I earned it, but nobody taxes you for getting that 20€.
> If inheritance tax prevents working classes from accumulating wealth [...]
Not true either. We're prevented of accumulating wealth because we don't earn enough to do it, and the cost of life goes up without our salaries being adjusted properly for this.
Every time inflation goes up, we should get our salaries adjusted to that percentage (whatever it is), but we're not (As an off-topic comment, we have a law in Spain that forces companies to do that, but nobody abides by it, and the government does nothing to force it).
I think taxing money it's already taxed is another way of stealing from the people. We pay enough taxes, we only need to get good people that manages that money correctly, benefiting the citizenship for paying such taxes (looking at Norway, where they pay a fucking load of taxes, but they get the benefit of paying them).
--
Ah, and in case it's not clear enough: this applies to the whole political spectrum. I don't give, and can't make enough emphasis here, a single fuck who is at the government, in any country, at any given moment.

No, man, what are you talking about? Inheritance tax is being taxed for getting money from a relative. A money that is already been taxed, when the person was alive.
Getting taxed for getting money from someone, a quantity that has already being taxed, is taxing the same money twice, or as many times as that money is inherited by someone.
You're talking about the normal process of taxing a product, and I don't see the problem with that process, because each part of something is taxed, the same as the final product, because they're different parts.
Also, if you abolish taxes, public and social stuff cease to exist. It's the point of paying taxes. Another thing is that politicians aren't managing the money correctly, as it should, and instead it gets stolen or wasted into stuff that isn't improving the quality of life of the citizens, which is another, completely and different topic.
Otherwise, welcome the USA way of life into your country.

From the next year, manufacturers of mobile phones are obliged to provide an USB-C port to charge and connect devices (too late, to my opinion, since almost every manufacturer already provides an USB-C to connect your device to your computer).
But the problem with this approach is that, if it's not regulated, it can lead to manufacturers forcing users to buy _their_ cables instead using any USB-C cable you may have at home, and thus, reducing the capabilities of the device itself, like limiting the charging up to a 75%, for example.
And yes, I'm talking about Apple. Because that company is known for being obnoxious toward users.
