I got engaged and travelled across the Atlantic to be with someone I met on irc

Interesting. Any idea why this is happening to SmokeAPI but not cream?

I used to use aptoide for piracy many years ago. I guess that’s not a thing anymore?

How does the process of requesting a street charger work, wouldn’t that require council approval or some such?

Because it doesn’t have millions of users in the EU and near a billion in revenue
