Or a nice winter in the Balkans.

Let be honest, not everyone lives in USA\Canada. From where I'm from, average salary about ~500 euro and a good toy costs a lot less. So, paying 180 from your month income just for dildo is kinda too much for average person in Balkans part of Europe, Russia (well, delivering not working for them anyway, cause they cosplaying nazi Germany), most of Asia (except China, Japan and some other countries) and maybe Africa, but we not talking about them there. Not to mention, that just what I remember (too lazy to google average salary for every part of world) and I have one friend from USA, that also struggles to get decent income to afford at least food, so yea, even statistics can be controversial on those. Don't know how situation in Australia tho, but those guys have spiders, they don't need dragon toys. My point is, that $200 for a toy is too much. That a luxury item at this point, like a premium car or maxed out macbook. That a bit weird, but it is what it is I guess.

Yes. Not about harassment part tho.

I just cannot remotely afford it

Let be honest, prices is kinda insane there. Imagine someone, who deliberately would tell "oh, $200 for a silicon toy that I will not use more then one time or even probably never, that I wanna buy just for pure esthetic purpose. What a steal!".

Well, ackshually, it's still a dragon.

Being a Serbian is now insulting, folks.

Also, have in mind that main memory shared with igpu, so if we talking about memory heavy tasks like 8k video render with masks, effects and stuff, then this memory will be eaten not only by app, but also with gpu encoder. 64gb would be more close to "bearable minimum" but oh well, magic apple ram I guess.

I mean, they do make your device slow. That why tools like InSpectre exists. For some old cpu's like my notebooks one it can be up to 20% performance impact, so if you not planning to use it with internet (or at least as main access point via browser) ever again, why not get yourself free performance?

I can't even open reddit on a phone nowadays, cause my preferred sub have 18+ posts and reddit don't let you access that if you not logged in. Also, there a notification, that I need to use shitty official mobile app. Also, there notification to login via google. Also, there a notification... Nope, I not using this shit ever again.

LANG=en_US.UTF-8, do you speak it?

And by proof I need independently verified proof posted by a website or an media that’s independent and impartial to the conflict like Reuters, BBC, etc.

Yea, about that: link.
