It’s primarily a difference in gender. „Der See“ (masculine) is a lake, while „die See“ (feminine) is the ocean.
But yes, it’s much more common to talk about „Meer“ and „Ozean“. Talking about „die See“ is a bit archaic and pirate-speak-ish.

Well but the artists won’t get any money from you either then. Not that they would get much from Spotify anyways. They’re among the worst in artist payouts.

It could. It might not. But it’s intel so the probability they’ve actually locked it down is higher than with AMD. But hardware is often more capable than what the specs say. That’s why overclocking is a thing or, in the past, you could unlock an extra core on some processors. It’s just never a guarantee and can vary from part to part, even if it’s the same model.

The fairphone 6 is the first fairphone that I feel I can just recommend to anyone who is looking for a(n android) phone in that price range. It has no significant drawback that I can see, unlike previous models which were often severely underpowered.

Well, they did specifically look for heterosexual non-homophobic men. Apparently, every one they got was honest about their sexuality, both to the researchers as to themselves.

And it still doesn’t have hall effect sticks/triggers

When my trusty 8-ish y/o XBOX One S Controller eventually kicks the can, I’ll probably get an 8BitDo controller. Well made, even has hall effect sticks n triggers by default and costs two thirds of any first party controller.

There is a compact mode? Where do I find the setting?

Probably because it’s what a lot of us grew up with. My childhood was dominated by XP and by the time I was a semi-regular PC user, 7 was the state of the art. I remember trying to make the XP installation on my old laptop look more like Vista.

I never liked the classic windows look. It’s so dull and grey.

What the fuck are you talking about? Vista and especially 7 were the best looking windows versions, unlike the flat and dull metro design of 8-10.
