Because they see the higher price you “should’ve” paid as lost revenue.

Plus once they realize you’re not in your seat, they sell your seat to someone else, essentially letting them get paid twice for a single seat.

Didn’t an asshole cop post an equally tasteless meme? My god where do they find these people?

My mother has advanced degrees in Engineering...might need to re-think your statement!

You’re gonna pay around double for a dumb TV, and they lack a lot of other features that come standard on TVs now. That Samsung and Sceptre you linked don’t have HDR, for example. The ad revenue subsidizes the cost of the smart TV.

J is the least used letter in Wordle words so you are kind of wasting a guess there.

I find OUIJA as a first does a good job of getting the vowels sorted or ruled out, but it’s left me with some difficulty isolating consonants on subsequent guesses.

it can be done but its such a pain in the ass, its unbelievable. They make it that way so its easier just to buy a new one.

I switched over a long time ago, but many apps tie the payment to the login, not the app. There is (or there used to be) a website out there somewhere (sorry I have zero recollection of what it was called) that helps transition, including getting your paid apps moved over.

Things “just work” on Apple stuff, but generally not in a way that (to me) makes sense or works well. And the limited ability to customize stuff on Apple’s OSes, makes me avoid them entirely.

Contrarily, your comment sounds like an Apple user who’s jealous their Android using friends. 🤷‍♀️

I don’t think #4 is really relevant when even those families apparently agree that 110 years isn’t warranted.

Did this guy fuck up and deserve to go to jail? Certainly.

This may come as a shock, but it’s possible that both are true.  It’s not a this-or-that thing.

Or anywhere near a professional office environment.

All of this sounds like someone who doesnt work in an office.  No one gives a shit about any of these things.  No one is laughing at the Olds for saying Presentation instead of Slide Deck.
