Quartz is a great idea. Make a public repo for your public stuff.

Then, you can make a private repo for your private stuff, and send the generated files via email/Google Drive, or use a different static host that has password protection (not really aware of any off hand)

It's not for me, an ad's an ad.

I agree with you (that they are a luxury purchase), but the point I was trying to get across is that they are worth their cost (in silicone + labor), unlike the items you pointed out which come with famously generous margins.

$200 isn't bad for something bespoke and handmade. A good dildo of similar quality that's mass produced is $50, not to mention that Bad Dragon usually has unique coloring and can be made huge.

Where's the source that this is AI? It's very clever which makes me think it's human, e.g. collected dust.
