This is the big issue for me. It can be as reliable as a Camry all it wants, but if it's a car made in China, I'm going to steer clear purely for the fact that I just don't fucking trust the CCP nor any Chinese company employing tech in foreign countries. I'll keep driving my 2011 Falcon until it dies (and knowing their usual longevity, it'll be a while.)
You weren't kidding, this is a fantastic replacement. Cheers for the rec.
"I don't expect to see any change in how we do things."
Oh, this is going to age like fucking milk. You belong to the shareholders now, mate. They'll MAKE you change how you do things, and you'll love it.
Australian here. That's cute.

Racists hate this simple trick.
I'm just using the default GrapheneOS SMS app, but it's concerning seeing the number of these FOSS apps lately adding major privacy invasive permission changes. Are there a few big companies buying them up for a quick buck, or what?
This is exactly why I use Proton as well. I'm not worried about law enforcement, I just want Google and other big tech's tentacles out of my fucking business. I don't want to be advertised to.
Whilst I agree with you in that consciousness is the true nature of the universe, it's science and its disciplines that will slowly help us understand what it actually is and why we even experience existence in the first place.
Believe me, the world is better off not seeing me in a short skirt and thigh highs.
I like girls. I like how they look, I like the way they sound, I LOVE their fashion options. It isn't really any deeper than that. That said, I'll usually always play a male character in a Souls title, because [insert valid reason for inconsistency here.]
EDIT: I guess if I had to further expand on this, I'd say that female characters give me a way to explore options I don't have as a tall, bearded, broad, 'built' man. I've always loved cuteness, hyperfeminine fashion, "girly stuff", and so in addition to just really, really liking girls, video games allow me to explore the cute, feminine avenues I can't in the real world.
Also, as another commenter stated, I'd also just rather look at a girl's ass than a guy's for the entirety of a playthrough lmao
I was a member of What.CD back in the day, and holy fuck, the elitism was insufferable... but the amount of genuine lossless music was unlike anywhere else, and the site was so well organized.
