I'm sure I used to use Audacity back in the day as a free, quick and dirty editor to splice up audio tracks. I'm talking at least 10 years ago.

Had no idea it was still even a thing.

He's a business man.

And business is goooood.

Holy shit. I totally had this too and had completely forgotten it even ever existed!

Makes me want to hunt down a copy now!

New cars are ludicrously expensive, especially EVs.

The most I can afford to spend on a car is maybe £14K, and that's under the proviso that about £4K of that is my own money and the rest is a loan to be paid off over about 6 or 7 years.

So yeah, I'm going secondhand ICE with about 50K miles on the clock and praying it doesn't die before the loan is paid off (and preferably longer still so I can save a bit more towards the next one).

I'm all for EVs, but they've got to bring the price down, and they've got to get the batteries to last long enough for the secondhand market to be viable.

I bet they call it a holy war, or crusade, or conquest or something.

I think they'll steer clear of jihad.

Guess it kinda depends on what it's made of?

Even if as a material it's mundane, it could be worth something to the right buyer, as a natural curiosity?

Every day, the reasons to either switch to dumb devices or open-source software keep piling up.

Yep, it's like it's her generously compensating job compels her or something.

Who'd have thunk it?

(For real though, what did people expect her to say?)

You fools! If you die in Australia, you die in real life!

If you're interested then you should definitely give it a shot. There's no combat - all your "battles" are just conversations 😅

Disco Elysium is sorrrrta like that, if you squint a bit.

Not focused around being an introvert or different dialogue styles exactly, but you're a mess of a human being and conversations can literally hurt you, as it tracks your mental health as well as physical.

You should try it if you haven't already.

That's John Startrek, the titular protagonist of Star Trek.
