The niche older fashion brands I used to enjoy here are no longer as accessible, in part due to these forwarding services; items are priced higher for foreign buyers who still underpay compared to their domestic supply, and items are becomi

At a previous employer this was a problem we identified (and larger retailer customers) had recognised, although for other reasons. We had developed a size recommendation system for them, that used real product measurements in every size an

Thanks for the info, but I did pause this, not through Google Play, it was via the UI. I received an automated email from them that my subscription had been paused as I expected and will resume in 1 month unless I cancel (I can’t cancel bec

This started a couple of days ago, before this announcement for 4.5 and code v2, so I already waited for it to be fixed. As much as I hate to say it, I don’t have a large twitter following the only method I have to raise awareness of this i

If you pause your subscription, Claude.ai breaks. I paused my subscription, and my account immediately transitioned to free. It has removed my invoice history, and attempts to upgrade again fail with an internal error. Their chatbot is tell

I wouldn't be playing video games anymore if there were no more games with dedicated servers. Not from a moral standpoint, or from a competitive standpoint, but purely from the community perspective. My youth was spent on Counterstrike

To me, vanity is only tangential to the purchasing of clothes, particularly fast fashion, where 'it looks good on the model' is often enough to part with money, not 'will it look good on me', or 'do I need it',

All the money they spend still fails at basic UX, creating a finely crafted, polished turd of engineering perfection. I don't see the Netflix experience to be superior in any way to the other big services; they all have their own issue

I'm aware of most of these improvements since I unsubscribed. Not worth resubscribing for me but I do follow the progress and am happy to see the improvements. Proton Drive is quite impressive to me now. Photos beta came along about 2

I tried after they introduced the family plan, then gave up after a few months since most of the products were (at least then) extremely half baked and missing what were to me key features. VPN was great, no issues. Calendar was pointless;

I wrote a mobile app for managing all my clothes and tracking what I wear every day (I’m heavily into avant garde fashion). Used it every single day for almost 4 years now, and it gives me informed decisions on what I rarely wear, my favour

I didn’t expect to see another CSS Ze player, given there’s so few of us now. There’s a good chance we play together! Thousands of hours spent playing and making maps, I wouldn’t trade them for the world.
