Back in 2012 I couldn't put Skyrim down for 2 or 3 playthroughs, even without mods. Of course I'm older now and got less spare time… but I didn't even get past the first few quests in Starfield. I don't know why it doesn't grab me the same way.

Also layoffs temporarily raise the stock price, it's probably more costly in the long run… but who cares as long as the numbers go up for a bit and everyone gets bonuses.

They altered the deal, they will alter the deal further.

This isn't even really normal entshitification, they added videos and some music cheap Spotify knockoff to their fast delivery flat rate. Nobody asked them to.

Then they slowly raised the price, essentially locking everyone that just wanted free fast delivery into a video streaming service and kept increasing the price.

They did this to force existing subscribers into their "new" business idea of a video streaming service, when they couldn't yet compete with the competition back then. Good news for them, their competitors are shit now.

Now they can include advertisements in it too and add more expensive advertisement free tiers. Essentially increasing the price again, but hiding it so people can't ask for subscription fees back in Europe.

Do they really think most people have forgotten they just wanted a fast delivery flat rate? They will never offer their delivery flat rate without video and all that stuff again, only if a legislature would force them.

All because Amongus sold so many times…

Real sponsors pay up front, or only add an additional bonus for affiliate link sales, if a creator accepts a deal on affiliate link money only, it's their own fault. So if you always fast forward through sponsors and don't care, you might as well enable it to save the bandwidth and power.

They're already starting their paid ad-free $10 a month tiers for Europe only. They'll stop showing advertising to underage people "for now". They're going to flood Europe with garbage ads and maximize subscribers that way.

It's almost like big business is fishy.

Even if it was free and ad-free I wouldn't want it.

They forgot to flag the 1000s of script kiddies with access to the internet.

It's almost funny how absolutely oblivious people like him are to their actions. Even if there wasn't a camera… he probably really thinks women are into this kind of harassment.

So buying a used refurbished pixel phone from a place not associated with google and putting GrapheneOS or something on it would be best? That's probably also a way to save money.

No no they meant programmers working for free…

Cartoons have missing features, so it leaves room for your own interpretation of it. Isn't it wonderful?

Islam and the Philippines, in the Philippines being called "intact" is a bad insult.

Sincere is the best I can do, take it or leave it.

I didn't, but my mind likes me now.

Just change the language used to write it, if possible.

Proton will be ready by then.

Well your brain isn't you, like a lunchbox isn't lunch.

Dating using internet communication works better without dating Apps.

This feels like rejection. I will now break down and never recover.

Another coma, another stain.

AdGuard Pro on iOS is decent, but no where nearly as good as uBlock.

What if my cat peed on it.

Here inhale this airway relaxing incense and take this baby aspirin to free up your blood vessels. How do you like that scum?

Everything only needed because it only helps to meet a security standard and to lower insurance. So much useless outdated stuff.

Eww

Well a bunch of metal and some chemicals can be a car.

The reverse otaku

YouTube messed up by not being a paid only service first and later offering an advertisement supported free tier. That way around, they'd be celebrated.

There is no need to be productive to be happy, that's internalized exploitation. Real addiction has a pathological meaning and always requires professional support. This sounds like ADHD dopamine hunting and impulsive hyper focusing. I'm not an armchair therapist, I'm not even a lawn chair therapist.

Altering the deal eh, at least they take smaller steps.

Keep all rooms safely above freezing, +10 Celsius/ +50F and only heat one room warmer. Calculate the power/fuel you would use then and compare to full central heating (it can be different for every location). Generally speaking in many countries running something that heats or cooles rooms with electricity 24/7 will make your power bill skyrocket. Damage to property caused by the cold like burst pipes and other stuff can certainly cost you any savings made and more.

Thats a fair assumption. I think it might've just taken longer, especially if the ad-supported tier was there quickly too, or even as an option from the start.
