Without. I'm a fairly tall dude myself, so looking upwards at a woman was a bit of a novel experience.

Hey, there's nothing inherently wrong with frequenting strip clubs. Where else are you going to have a beer and watch a dude in playboy pyjamas wearing a dog leash get walked around the place by a 6' tall stripper in stilettos?

Which things does that cover? Do we get to pull the shotguns and triangular bayonets out of storage?

I didn't use it at all. I just pointed out that it's only sexist/homophobic if other arrangements are given a pass, while the male-male arrangement is used in a pejorative manner. (On an unrelated note, it's a fun fact that we can now safety assume that you are a male. I'm curious what the male: female ratio is among tankies). If anything, it's the s+m community that should be offended, since the phrase implies that being the sexually submissive partner is inherently bad.

Are there any female authoritarian leaders? I can't think of any current ones, so it may be simply descriptive instead of sexist/homophobic.

Man, did you somehow manage to skip the "Western Culture" class during your re-education? Not a single part of that statement makes any sense.

What part of that statement gave you any clue as to what their political leanings are?

That practice is actually what made me quit using Amazon even before this latest bullshit. I live in a condo, so if I'm not home, they can't deliver. Every major courier (Canada Post, FedEx, etc) will just take it to one of their shipping locations and I'll pick it up on the way home from work. With the Amazon couriers, I end up playing phone tag with a person who unfortunately has very poor English, and just generally getting frustrated. Plus the tracking numbers just straight up don't work.

Maybe they are counting any wars where the British fought? If so, the two world wars would account for a lot of it.

I went from a 1080ti to a 6900xt during the pandemic when I found EKWB selling cards at MSRP. With Nvidia's pricing and availability issues, I don't see myself going back anytime soon.

Are you committed to Nvidia? I just looked, and currently 7800XTs can be had for less than $100 more than the 4060ti. I can't imagine that AMD is going to raise prices that much.

Apple is what Microsoft wishes it could be (minus the difference in market share). That's personally why I won't give Apple any of my money. Really not interested in that locked down ecosystem.
