Probably possible yeah, but if the account gets flagged after users reporting it, they'll need to get a new number afterwards, which isn't that easy (at least where I live).

Where are you receiving these spam messages from? Random numbers aimed at marketing or what?

I read it as "The budget price tag is why I still care enough to rate it"

Disguising or disgusting?

I think a lot of people are arguing that the models which are used to generate these types of content are trained on literal CSAM. So it's like CSAM with extra steps.

Unfortunately the "shame" surrounding these things stem from the concept of sin and living as a "sinner" in a "fallen world". I've been shamed countless times because of things the church did not agree with. I don't know if he ever preached any transphobic ideas in his time, but biblical ideologies are rife with gender roles and toxic ideas about women and masculinity. Even if he didn't preach any of that toxic garbage, he must have been struggling a lot with his own identity, even though he said it's only for fun and stress relief (paraphrasing). Small towns don't act gracefully towards people experimenting with their sexualities like this. Can only imagine the rejection he must have experienced having all of this play off on the grand stage of his life in that little town, since literally everyone there knew him.

You didn't state if you use an adblock extension, which is what this is all about.

Linux performance with proton has increased so drastically in recent years, your statement can be taken as wishful thinking at first, but there is a definite trend and I agree that Linux will probably be the powerhouse of gaming in coming years.

You'll be surprised to learn how much overhead Windows has and how much system resources they take up to keep all their trackers and bloat running in the background. It really makes a startling difference when you switch to a Linux OS. It can even make your hardware feel more powerful, because it only needs to deal with the game's performance, and not also running a shitton of unneeded services in the background all the time.

Thank you. You had the opportunity to explain why you use it and why you recommended it, and yet you had me google it myself like I could have done from the start. Now I know it's a browser (like your comment implied) based on Firefox with additional privacy features. But I still don't know why you recommended it. Oh well.
