I absolutely hate that. What’s wrong with just entering a key? They act like it’s difficult or they’re doing something truly impressive when it’s obvious they’re getting way more out of users having an account

Would something like that only apply to store-bought PCs? Or could they somehow lock a motherboard you bought separately? Sorry, no idea how bootloaders work, despite unlocking em plenty of times on Android phones in the past
One difference is there was already value with having a gmail account. What’s the point of getting a Microsoft account? The only thing I can see is it makes settings set up/transfer easy between PCs and for reinstalls.
Except, if I’m reinstalling, I can’t imagine waiting to copy settings since one of those settings is probably causing a problem and I don’t want it to be automatically set for me. I also don’t use the Microsoft store so…
Does anyone else actually get value from their Microsoft account? If not, It just feels like it’s only purpose is giving them (more) access to your computer. Why would anyone want that?
Yeah I pay a buddy 8 every 2 months for music+no ads (+all the other stuff)
It’s definitely worth it for me but it’s definitely a fucked up pricing model for single users. There should be a sub or something for people to link up 6 people so they can all save monies
Notre: the change of ownership happened 2yrs ago
I pay $4/mo, mainly for YouTube music (I’m part of a friend’s family plan).
It’s pretty convenient since you can use the background audio on an iPad as well - I don’t use it often but it’s nice when I do. And there’s no ads there it’s pretty insane seeing the level of ads when I try and use my work phone which I’m not signed into.
Also, you can make channels within your single goggle account so I made one for my mom and bro so they get no ads aswell. They have to sign in to my acct which can feel a little sketch but I trust them since they’re just using the YT app on their TVs. They stay in their own user acct. and it doesn’t affect my history or anything
That’s the thing, we can’t tell if they’re good or not because of your poor communication skills and shitty attitude.
It’s clearly a skill issue. lol
Are you intentionally framing your thoughts and opinions in the most insufferable way possible? If so, why?
It’s like you could’ve made a decent point but then tried really hard to make it as disrespectfully as possible
The IRA and the CHIPS Act were pretty legit - granted, I think trump might’ve passed some version of the CHIPS act as well. Seems like a no-brainer, imo, but the one that did it gets the credit!
I love the new up/downvote colors but when I swipe on a comment to upvote it’s still orange/purple. Anyway to make that match the new upvote color?
This app is great! Keep it up!
Every time I read about a historical article from the NYT, they always seem to be on the wrong sid.
Most recently, I read a book about the period just before the Mexican Revolution when the NYT was happy to side with and defend the brutal Diaz dictatorship that provided cheap natural resources for wealthy American investors. In another book about the comics scare during the 40s-50s, they had no problem publishing an article titled " Comics blamed in death" when covering a kid that hanged himself.
There’s probably a bit of confirmation bias going on here, but it’s still concerning, nonetheless.
Remember when zippy died? All those beautiful, obscure, working links… gone
This Zaslav guy’s kind of dumb, overpaid piece of shit, eh?
Anyone know how the $250 mil he’s paid in stock options works? In one of the links in the article above it says he only gets that money if the stock goes above a certain price. Surely, there’s tiers or brackets or something, right? Like, considering the stock has only gone down, it seems hard to believe he literally gets zero value out of all that stock
I just realized what’s going on in this sub.
This is hilarious!
I really just can’t get into fiction books but I definitely wish I was every time this series comes up. It sounds pretty cool
Nah, that’s what you think. You’d be hate fucking yourself before the end of the day
Can’t you just hide the paid movies/tv tab? Or is it a principle thing
Is jellyfin better? I’d never heard of it 'til now
I absolutely love z library!
Fair enough. I’ve only had to use a train in one city when I would go to the airport and that shit was terrifying sometimes. Also, I can just listen to an audiobook if I’m trying to be productive in the car
The Finals Season 3 1000%
I absolutely love the first two seasons. I haven’t enjoyed a game like this in years.
It’s a bit sweaty but I feel like it can be pretty casual (out of ranked). Like the difference between playing a casual game of soccer or basketball compared to a competitive match of either. It takes strategy, teamwork and good game sense/skills to win a match as opposed to strictly kills. Idk, it’s super cool and people should give it a shot
