Trying to think outside the box here, but maybe if she feels the same (and it sounds like you were both pretty mature about all this) you could join the local swinging scene together? Better and easier as a couple than as a single male.

We still have it in Australia (called layby). I know some people who use it to buy larger Xmas or birthday presents way ahead of time and pay it off over many months.
Here are the rules and costs for Kmart for example: www.kmart.com.au/layby/

Yeah seeing the post had me worried for a while but appears it’s not and android thing but a Samsung thing. This is why I stopped buying Samsung phones 6 years ago.

- Comment on More Americans are financing groceries with buy now, pay later loans — and more are paying those bills late, survey says 2 months ago:
The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. … A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. … But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet. This was the Captain Samuel Vimes ‘Boots’ theory of socio-economic unfairness.

- Comment on New modelling reveals full impact of Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ tariffs – with the US hit hardest 2 months ago:
Also Australia is actually trading at a deficit with the USA. We buy way more from them than they buy from us. Which shows this narrative of Trump to reduce the trade deficit is bullshit.
For this reason though I don’t think Australia will do retaliatory tariffs. Why hurt ourselves more when the USA is less than 5% of our exports?

What are you on about? The first paragraph says hash tables are “widely used” and the second says they are “common”.
“Data structures called hash tables” seems to just be a factual statement of what we’re dealing with, especially for people who are not programmers.
