Cool, please do.

Happy I stuck with my older Samsung dumb TV. Great screen, decent size, flat enough to mount on a wall, and does everything I need it to do regarding hooking up my little i5/8GB baby office PC turned media hub. I don't care that it's only 1080p, looks just fine when I'm in bed and watching movies on it. Even when smart devices were first becoming THE thing to have, the idea of having to download updates for my TV got me thinking about the more nefarious aspects of such tech the future may hold.
I think a lot of it comes down to me just not being very materialistic, or needing my household devices to be internet ready with installed apps and no way of managing permissions or data harvesting. Even my cars are older, and were made well before integrated SIM cards and constant data collection, and I've no plans to upgrade any time soon. I guess I just never 'got' the appeal of having a smart device that wasn't just my phone (and even then, I barely use any apps on my phone outside a web browser (which eliminates the need for most apps anyway) and the camera.)
No, and the answer isn't policing speech. The block button exists for a reason. Use it.
Legitimately yes. You can call me whatever you like.
The very same AI that shows pictures of black people with dreadlocks when asked to show a typical viking also has a braindead response for a question involving Hitler and a guy who posts retarded tweets and regularly pisses off his shareholders? I am shocked.
AI is still so ridiculously tainted by bias and the relative infancy of the tech.
Aussie here. What's a tip? /s
imo Tooie it's vastly inferior to the first game, and feels like it has no concrete identity as to what kind of game it wants to be. Banjo-Kazooie even to this day is a tight, defined, and perfectly balanced game that genuinely holds up, but I've never been able to get through Tooie without becoming either bored, frustrated, or both.
I get that Rare were trying to push the boundaries for video games at the time, but it just didn't translate to a better experience.
Yes. People keep spreading the myth that Jack and Jane in the same job working the same hours at the same company during the same year earn $1 and 70c respectively. Even the government sources used to back up their arguments state that the pay gap is as a result of an overall snapshot of the workforce, taking into account a huge multitude of factors.
Not paying men and women the same amount for the same job is very, very illegal, at least here in Australia.
Is Session actually secure though? I know they're based in Australia, and as an Aussie myself, holy fuck would I not trust this country for even a fraction of a picosecond with anything private or sensitive. We have some of the world's most draconian and far-reaching digital privacy and surveillance laws, and I'm not ready to accept that Session hasn't been secretly compromised by the AFP, given the law against revealing government backdoors.
Happy to be proven wrong, but I always err on the side of extreme caution when it comes to Australia. Digitally, we're closer to the CCP than any of our fellow western nations.
It'll be such a surprise when it turns out all 10 have been suicidal for years and/or extremely susceptible to infection.
