I think it's better labeled "heteroflexible", or engaging in physical contact/sex with a same-sex person (for the dopamine), but have no "romantic" attraction to same-sex people.

Even very smart people who are aware of this fact continue to justify it, in the name of "I need it for work" and "I learn a lot from <niche> Twitter". We're entrenched in it and it's not always feasible

On the audio side of things: Cool Edit Pro 2 became Adobe Audition, which was single-license but of course has since been SaaS-ed. It was never as popular as Pro Tools, Cubase, etc but it was my goto DAW (as a hobbyist) for a long time. App

Fellow former $BBY-er here... you gotta admit, the bundle pricing Best Buy ran on all of that stuff (with the purchase of a new printer, of course) made it so easy to talk them into it. When I started I had just left commission-based sales
