The bastards barely started selling it a few years ago. I feel like some responsibility should exist. It isn't a company that is going under, so it shouldn't be able to just casually kill the devices tied-service it only recently sold.

I recently encountered a song I could only stream but not buy anywhere without DRM. Kinda wild because it has over 5 million YouTube views.

If anyone knows how the buy Slow Song by The Knocks, lmk.

Do you know if you can just pay the difference to upgrade from simple to unlimited? I'm pretty sure I will gobble the 300 searches but they claim that 99% of people do not.

It looks more like multiple companies were needed to pin the individual. I don't expect any company to not comply with legal requests. My understanding is this is why it's important to know what information a company retains.

For my own use, I have used Proton just to mitigate being a source of ad info and to get better service. I'm not interesting enough to overthrow anything.

All of my local gyms in my last 3 areas have been super pricy. Like $75-$150 a month. It may not seem high, but when you can get a franchise membership for $10-$30, it's a hard sale.

I have had luck with specialty stuff though. Yoga is common to have discounts and decent pricing if that's anyone's jam.

Is € 251.88 the estimated loss in revenue? I would like to say that it only makes sense if you assume the user will be on the platform either way, instead of just not paying and leaving. However, my experience with others makes me believe they will take whatever option to get to what they want.

I think it's a situation for policy but, at least here in the US, our policy makers aren't in the ethical or learned position to be effective.

What I'm saying is, the boat has holes and I'm concerned.

Can someone more savvy explain why they couldn't also scrape what we all say here?

VerseAndVermin ,

Maybe here is a good place to ask. I have used Mint for months now on my non-gaming laptop. I like it. I was ready to move my gaming rig at months end. Then I read that it can have issues with multiple monitors at different refresh rates and also with Mouse acceleration. Is this true and is there a solution?

If I understand right, it is tracking work software. So work PCs. I had already assumed anything in a work setting can be used against me. It doesn't make it right, but this won't change my behavior. I already assume corpo-degeneracy is afoot anytime I touch work-tech.

VerseAndVermin ,

A lot of great points. I suspect metrics on people's work will only get worse. Like you said, it will justify some awful behavior. Imagine a dummy having access to it as well. Like Musk firing people based off how many lines of code.

VerseAndVermin ,

What the heck. How are they at that point not paying for the phone. Nope nope nope.

A lot of people seem to feel entitled to space on others phones. I guess businesses included.

The software has determined every key stroke with your thumb has a measurable deficiency. Employee , would you verbally agree to a thumb lengthening. We believe this would improve performance by 0.012%.

Since everyone else is piling on negatively, I appreciated your friendly reminder.
