@ataulm That looks way to thick. You know you're only supposed to add a few millimeters at a time? :)

OkHttp lacks support though, and iOS support is also missing.

Who wants to live in a world ruled by hatred? A conversation with a Holocaust survivor | Hédi Fried
An Auschwitz survivor Hédi Fried passed away today at the age of 98.
Hédi was born in a Jewish family in the Romanian town of Sighet. In 1944 she was deported to #Auschwitz. She was liberated in Bergen-Belsen. In July 1945 she came to #Sweden with the Swedish Red Cross.
