This is the worse of the two vetoes I read; what would the addition of the bill cost anyway?

Hah, meanwhile, the younger ones use Telegram here because the weird old people are on WhatsApp and can't stop sending boomer messages. xD

It's not that simple. Is this for simple sexual gratification? A fantasy? Short-term relationship? Long-term?

When I was 20, I had my fantasies and had several one-night stands as well with older men. That's where the attraction ended; it was more of a fantasy/kink, but I held no romantic interest in them.

The issue mostly is with power imbalance, it's very easy for the older person to use their experience in life to limit the agency of the younger partner, so it takes some work for an age gap relationship to be a healthy one. I'm in one myself, and I do my best to be mindful about this.

Asian cultures don't really see it as normal too, tongues were wagging with one of our Singapore president candidates in the recent election; he was 75, she 45.

Lolwut, cartoon arms? This I gotta see. xD Gonna trawl YouTube for examples.

25+ years of GPUs from three different major companies, and I don't think I've ever upgraded the firmware on my GPU. Support is based on the API, be it D3D or Vulkan or OpenGL. As long as there's support your card will work.

Has anyone with a camera ever deliberately wanted a lens to have chromatic aberration?

Only the shallow arty-farty wannabe types, as far as I know. Meanwhile the rest of us spend thousands of dollars trying to remove such effects in our photos.

Even in movies they don't want those things, you know how expensive true apochromatic lenses are? Meanwhile games are adding lens defects in. --

Exynos used to be one of the best SoCs, but it hasn't been for like a decade already. So not going to believe this will be anywhere near the best until tests show otherwise. xD

I was considering something like this for work. One downside of this approach is that you'll be carrying more weight; with the NexDock it's going to be a 1.6-1.7kg affair for a 13.3" notebook.

Also if you're going to be doing photography, what software are you going to run on the Steam Deck?

6700XT is still a bit faster than the 7600, I think. Feel free to correct me on this.

Agree on the SSD, while a PCIe4 may not be needed, I'm sure there're plenty of better SSDs than the Intel for cheap at this point in time. The price drops have been pretty good across the board.

Might want to wait for the benchmark tests to come out first, if the build is for CS2. I remember CS is pretty CPU heavy, so you might want to hold off on your choice of platform first.

Edit: Also, do check with the PSU tier list, don't have to get A tier, but try something from B. A good PSU will help with the longevity of your build!

I know, that's why I don't begrudge them, but at the same time, I do feel a little weary on the inside when I see another interesting game that's pixel art. xD

I live in a rural area. The most I’ve ever had to wait was during a lunch rush one day. About 5 to 10 minutes or so.

And here I thought rural areas would have less vehicles (and people) so that wouldn't be a thing. Meanwhile I don't think I've ever had to wait more than 2 minutes, and I'm in a super dense city!

To you maybe. I don't remember the URL search strings of every search engine, so the method of adding a search engine via the page of the search itself is far easier.

Eh, I usually leave off a few screws on the side panels, makes it easier for future access. XD

Generally it's down to genre and mechanics. I obviously have my preferences so I'll always keep a lookout on those that interest me. As well as avoid those I don't.

I generally don't have a preference for art style (I appreciate a wide variety of them), though I confess, I am getting a little tired of pixel-art games.

Oh yea, fuel is expensive. It's like more than US$2 per litre now. If this online converter is right, that's more than US$7.60 per gallon.

Yea, it would, starting with alternate transport infrastructure, which is also not aided by city design. So yea, there is a ton of work.

Ah, I see, you're on "All", on the left tab. Hit the "Photo" and you should see it. They're really hiding the cheaper option now!
