Why on earth is my game crashing on launch... in the garbage collector

I intended to play a game and now I'm compiling KiCad

Since people are getting restless about Hetzner again: yes, those kinds of TOS are problematic. However, and this is crucial, they are also *common* - even if not every hosting provider tells you upfront.

Does this justify such terms? No. But it means that you need to think carefully about what your actual anticipated problems are, and whether moving to a different provider is actually a good solution.

When it comes down to it, virtually every cheap hosting provider is going to be extremely strict on acceptable usage of their services; usually they will enforce a strict and conservative interpretation of the local legislation, because simply put, fighting legal cases costs money.

Hetzner sticks out right now due to recent incidents, but consider how big they actually are; at that scale, two incidents do not make a pattern, and unless you *know* that another provider is more friendly to your cause (and this will likely have a pricetag attached), other options are not necessarily better.

(For a bit of background context: my diet is *extremely* difficult to cook for, because basically every salt replacement runs afoul of some other dietary restriction...)

So I booked a short stay at the Efteling for next week and I asked them whether they could find a way to accommodate my kidney disease diet (low salt, low potassium) at the hotel breakfast/dinner.

I had kind of expected them to get back to me with one specific improvised option, but no, they sent me a whole list of potential options and their nutritional values, along with suggestions of what would combine well, and a question whether there's anything missing from the list that I would like to eat.

Wow.
