It depends on the tool. Generally, lending tools is not cheap where I live, but I once did lend a concrete sander because it was still cheaper than buying it (four digits, and likely won't ever need it again).

I've been looking for a good pixel-art AI for a while. Most things I tried look okay, but not stunning. If anyone has had good experience with an AI tool for that, I'd be grateful for a link.

Make no mistake, just because I like to put in my 2cts, whether someone asks about it or not, does not mean that I cannot live without the internet. If yc had to close shop tomorrow, I'd survive. I also enjoy watching stuff on youtube,

It absolutely is for me, but I'm probably twice your age and use the internet only leisurely. I don't do social media, I don't use a smart phone, so yeah, I'm certainly an edge case, but no internet would be fine for me
