I wish. I was late to the party on that one. But in general, I pay way more than I should for a lifetime one time payment just to avoid a subscription. Can’t stand it.

I hear you. I just ordered pizza from a local pizzeria we like via their app. It’s one random hole in the wall pizzeria and I need their app to order a pie. In that regard, I completely agree. It’s out of control.

What’s all the hate for UG about? I’ve been using it for years, as a casual guitar player, to get tabs of songs I want to learn. Happy to pay $15 year for the service. I know they annoy you constantly to get premium if you are a free user but for the price, I don’t know of a better service for tabs.

It’s the Ninja CP-301.

Thankfully I don’t see too much of that. I actually find a general lack of consideration. People talking on speakerphone, on a quiet bus commuting home from the city. No one wants to hear your conversation. I don’t get the mentality.

I’m a guy and I’ve experienced the same thing. I don’t get it at all. Aren’t you at all embarrassed to be conversing on the phone while dropping bombs?! And no one else sitting in a stall wants to hear your conversation! Just scroll Lemmy and leave us alone!

I’m a big fan of McCafé. It used to be much cheaper before Covid but so was everything. I prefer it over most of the pricier stuff.

My buddies love black rifle but it’s definitely not budget.

Maybe both?! And I’m okay with it.

As someone who was always OCD about how I treated my cds, this hits home.

Agreed. It’s a smaller community and easier to feel seen. I’ve probably already posted more here than I ever have on Reddit.

It’s a beautiful machine! I hear such good things about this machine but I love the range of coffees that my Ninja can make - cold brew to hot coffee and everything in between, from full carafe to single cup. It’s so convenient and makes a great cup of coffee. We’ll see about this machine when the Ninja dies but I’d likely replace it with an identical Ninja.

Premium just seems like too expensive a proposition for the casual viewer. I use an adblocker but if they made premium five bucks a month I’d probably just do it. And I think many people wouldn’t mind paying that to avoid ads.
