That’s me, but with my 3d printer.
I wanted to get premium and while i was considering it they had 2 price increases.
No thank you, bye.
I am of the mindset: i want value out of my money, subscriptions that let you own nothing immediately falls out of my requirements so i need it to be a price i’m willing to pay. Which is a low price.
I cancelled spotify the moment they added €1 to the cost, all it gave me was a play button and a bunch of bullshit i don’t care for like a year in review. Dude, i was there…listening to that music, i already know what i played so i don’t need you to tell me.
But that’s just me and i’m the odd one out it seems.
I compare spotify like this; i bought a cd from the discount bin for €5 and got to play that for a whole life and i’d be happy if it was all i had. Spotify opens up do much music to you which is really cool BUT i used to buy a single album a year and copy that to a new cd/mp3 player to add it to the previous boughr cd’s. So my cost went from €5/€20 a year to €11 a month while i own nothing. In my head that’s automatically a waste of €112 euro’s that are spent with no real returning value.
The biggest value most subscription services offer is: they’ll stop literally pestering you with ads.
Because the big channels will get a significant drop in views which lowers their sponsor pay and willingness to work with them.
What is that video xD Dutch oven wth kind of nickname is that for a battlebot man i’m dead
So that’s why Instagram is the way it is, i assumed it was fairly small but it has attracted a rather toxic userbase and i don’t actually enjoy it anymore.
It used to be a place where i could share my joys and people with similar interests would follow me because they enjoy my joys too.
But now it’s just tiktok, at least i assume seeing it’s all reels and loud noises.
This reminds me of the blackberry ping days, everyone and their mom acting like a diva for having a sidekick blackberry just to use ping.
Those were better days financially.
I wanted a G8 monitor or the G9
The G9 is still €1799 and the G8 went from €888 to €840.
I’ll wait for an upgrade of either and see these drop to 2/3 of msrp or something.
Let them keep this shit up and you’ll find out.
Necessity is the mother of invention.
Keep it up, dumbasses.
Catch the hint…the harder you try the harder we do. There’s no trying from our end.
Gone are the days of being properly fed off a normal wage.
Tax dollars are paying for that right?
I’m Dutch myself, but i know a lot of people who can’t afford another increase in cost of living…i’m quite certain America has many more people in the same situation.
I wonder what would happen if Google manages to destroy itself with increasing shenanigans like this.
I mean, so much of digital based stuff relies on them for some extent.
Or bad performance on near new overpriced hardware.
Turns out i’m gonna buy a steamdeck with them using linux and thinking of things like this.
I just need to wait a bit as the most expensive season is around the corner, i’m just glad our Dutch black friday doesn’t outdo any regular discount making it a near necessity to wait for black friday.
The guy i’m tenderly trying to kiss on the head
That’s some high res looking pikachu, i stole it.
You’re probably right about this.
Someone quick, put them in a sock.
