I recently commented about how much I hate Adobe for their horrible subscription tactics, and the fact that the Canadian government REQUIRES you to use Adobe reader to sign PDFs in order to immigrate to canada.
The last time I complained to them, they offered me a free extended trial in order to make things right. I tried to cancel the free trial on July 10th, and was informed that it would cost $100 to cancel my contract.
I don’t have enough money to hire lawyers, but I am 100% sure what they did was illegal. I have a severe mental health disorder, which resulted in me trying to kill myself after being literally fucking raped by a company. July 10th is also my birthday, which was fucking great. I fucking LOVE me a good corporation, they bring so much joy to the world.
Sorry for the TMI, I fucking hate this company.
I pay also, and use revanced. I watch YouTube more than any other service, and want to support some of the creators I like.
I would feel a lot less self hatred for paying google if they released a YouTube ‘Lite’ app that dropped everything related to shorts. Paying users should be able to use the app however they want, without having extra features rammed down their throats.
I got into metroid in 2014 or 2015 during the 3DS era. Someone mentioned that Super Metroid was their favourite game growing up, so I decided to give it a shot. I had only played the NDS metroid games before, so I didn’t really know what to expect.
I ended up being completely blown away, and I think I replayed the game within a year, which is incredibly rare for me - one of the only other games I can think of doing this for was the first Ori game (I have a thing for tight platformers, what can I say).
I’d say super metroid is one of my all time favourite games now, probably number 2 on the SNES to Link to the Past. In terms of influence, I’d put it up there with dark souls.
Last year I also played Prime for the first time when the remaster came out, and loved that too. Really hoping they release 2 and 3!
I’ve used usenet for maybe 6 months lightly, so admittedly I’m not the mostly experienced. That being said, I know how to sort search results by popularity and size, and I’ve still had at least 5 video links download executables in that time, from various indexers. Maybe those .exes were completely innocent and not malware… But for some reason I have my doubts.
Personally I’d argue RD is actually cheap for video, and unless you NEED max download speeds, torrents are just as good as Usenet for anything else.
(Note torrents will probably need a VPN too, but that’s still substantially cheaper than Usenet if you buy years at a time. And personally I use a VPN for usenet too, although I’m sure I’ll be downvoted and called paranoid.)
Not in America, at least
