Was the downgrade to USB-C 2.0 noticeable to you so far? As in, with the slower data transfer speed or lack of Display output?
It’s the main reason why I ended up going with a Pixel 9 pro instead of Fairphone 6 when getting a new phone a few months ago
I recently switched from Motorola to a Pixel 9 and I’m very happy! Absolutely hated the 5 minutes that the Pixel was running stock Android tho (they remapped the Off button to an AI button and I couldn’t figure out how to power down the phone), but once that crap was gone and GrapheneOS was installed I stayed 100% content. I’m not even a particularly security focused person, but Graphene’s dedication to keeping bloatware and unnecessary dumb shit off the OS has been very appreciated
Inkscape is incredible! I needed to vectorize some images in pretty specific ways and struggled through the process with my usual drawing software (Clip Studio Paint). It sucked so much! Inkscape did the same thing much better in a fraction of the time

Is this AI generated code?
Colloquially, the word “robot” always implies a certain amount of anthropomorphism. So no, I don’t think a vibrator would count, as basically no vibrators on the market try to look human-like.
But that definitely is a weird difference between male and female sexuality - the sex toys women buy most are the very effective and utilitarian ones: Vibrator wands, Rabbits, Air pulse Vibrators etc.
While the most popular tools for men tend to focus on “realism”(?): Fleshlights, Sex Dolls, things like VR and POV porn. And I guess sex robots would fall into that category too in the future.
I can absolutely see the weirdness-factor of someone who is desperately trying to emulate a partner rather than just accept masturbation as a solo activity and optimize it from there 😬
I back up my important images to an external SSD because I don’t want to rely on cloud backup, plus I shuffle around quite a few audiobooks, game roms and ebook collections from time to time. Having faster speeds with that does add up.
I also use Desktop mode quite a lot (my previous phone was a Moto G100 so it had Moto Ready For) and now that a universal Desktop mode is announced for Android 16 I would be quite annoyed if I couldn’t use it just due to hardware limitation. The current Desktop mode preview on GrapheneOS isn’t 100% functional yet either, but at least I know that I will get it working eventually 😄
