Use a virtual credit card when signing up for subscription services. Set the recurring amount at just enough to cover the trial amount, and then once the subscription fee goes up it’ll notify you if you wish to continue paying for it. You can increase the limit if you want to keep the service, or just let the card decline until the service is cancelled. Most credit cards have virtual cards as an option, but I also use app.paywithextend.com

Lol.

So you’re supporting the fact that the price of eggs has gotten significantly better under the current administration.

To add to that, use those nitrile gloves when you cook. It’s a game changer for food prep, especially when working with raw meat

Mattress, shoes, chair, tires. The things that are between you and the ground

I think it’s now overstated how “different” Linux is. I switched to Mint about a year ago and there is basically zero learning curve right out the box.

It’s getting weirder every day

Do it.

I did this with the LOTR trilogy recently. Excellent experience. There’s definitely spots where it made sense to pause depending on how much time I had to spare. Watching it in 45-90 minute chunks and stopping at logical transitions made it feasible and enjoyable for me

If you’re 29 that means you’re borderline millennial/gen z. Definitely not blaming you here. You are correct, this has been an issue for our entire lives and the generations before us have done exactly nothing to curtail the destruction of our planet

this is a problem that we’ve all created

You mean this is a problem that the boomers and gen x created. THEY are the generations that controlled the corporations whose only concern was profit. THEY are the generations that pushed consumerism with no regard to the natural world. THEY are the generations that elected the politicians that allowed this all to happen. So here come the millennials and zoomers to clean up their mess, just like everything else they fucked up for the rest of us.

So this is material that is free of chemical pesticides?
