NOT any of the movies. Avoid them until you know you enjoy the tvseries. And I believe you should start at Strange New Worlds. A recent series that quickly gets itself into what we enjoy about Star Trek.

You COULD see if you enjoy Discovery too. I think its a bit too far from what makes Star Trek fun (team work and optimism), and it too quickly delves into mirror world stuff, which you really should have more context about. Picard is a bit too much dependent on knowing stuff from The Next Generation. Lower Decks is making fun of Star Trek lore. And Enterprise and anything older is good and watchable if you enjoyed Strange New Worlds. They all have a bit slow first season though. The Original Series is too old to be watchable for me.

Mostly I choose gender based on how good they look. If males look brutish and carrot-y (no offense to Carrot Ironfounderdsson) or soldier-like, I choose female. If women look like drawn by Rob Liefeld, I choose men.

Though I do have a preference to a ginger short-haired woman (elf if fantasy) if I can't decide on what I want to make.

I assume they've already replaced the CEO with an AI before they replaced the workers, right? That should be the easiest to swap out because any AI generated mistakes would be caught by the people doing the work just like we've always done with CEO generated mistakes.

I might just be into the cottage core aesthetics probably, maybe thats the reason I loved exploring every part of that world.

The regular Google store won't let me install it because it "doesn't work on my device". I would love to decide that for myself please. Nice to see F-droid has no such limitations.

It was damn pretty; exteriors, interiors, and nature. And the combat mechanics were fun and well done, imho.

I don't really care enough about the HP universe to care about whomping willows, broom flying, school rules, or that a 3rd grader shouldn't really be able to murder an entire army of bandits, smugglers, goblins, and local magical aggressive fauna in a single school year.

And if one aren't in the mood to learn something completely new, theres always Pathfinder.

A cookie banner with "Yes track me" and "Choose how much you want us to track you" button (on the retailer for my country, doesn't seem to appear on the dot com site) doesn't inspire confidence.

Hows their ink screens? I stayed with kindle primarily for their paperwhite, which is darn comfortable even in direct sunlight.

Aright, you got the job. Heres 11 000 books. I'll bring you another 11 000 tomorrow. You can read 8 books per minute, right? Without sleep?
