im just sitting over here waiting to get a good deal for a 4tb ssd. the fact that they arent any better than what i paid for late 2023 isnt helping.

how I see it is what one intends to use the software for. for ones self, and for commision work, the other options are perfectly fine (and imo encouraged). the sole reason why someone would use the adobe products is if theyre looking to work in a company already using the suite, or they already just happen to have the skillset already in it, and switching would change workflow.

anyone learning from the start imo should consider the other options first.

is it possibly, yes. but if you have to ask yhat its possible, you likely dont have the skillset required to do it, and paying somone else is typically not cost effective

if you are in that price range, at least consider waiting for 9070xt reviews next month. itll likely be the closest thing to nvidia feature wise, without it being nvidia.

it ended production of BD-RW iirc. not BD-R. enphasis on the write portion (basically dont expect to burn your own disks over again)

the more convenient something is, the more its going to be targetted. people are lazy to (optionally) get a vpn(depending on jurisdiction), download and watch their content.

id imagine Sony is behind this given they have the most to lose from anime piracy specifically in the U.S

BTC is trackable, its just immune to sanctions due to not being tied to any body of government.

vim is a very common text editor. hes just using it as an example program to install/remove
