  • How can I upvote this 6000 times?

  • Dammit, beat me to it 😄🤜🏼

  • Having a mid physique means all the textures were made for you and don't warp in weird ways.

  • On top of this, the ram China sells will generate profit, instead of being looped back into the perpetual no-return money hole.

  • "Draw me like one of your French poodles."

  • shouldn’t it have been extremely easy to foresee...

    I mean... look who you're talking about.

  • I feel this one.

  • Buy absolutely miniscule amounts of food so hunger drives me out of my house to get things done.

  • Without getting into too much detail because I want to stay relatively anonymous/unidentifiable as much as possible, I chose to go to Asia rather than Europe.

    I know that's basically useless, but it's as detailed as I'm willing to get.

  • If you're gonna make it transparent, make it out of this:

  • Did scientists figure out how to keep the beige box from turning into a yellow box?

  • I got out last time Trump won and finally secured permanent residency. Worth every sacrifice I made.

  • Some of us never stopped.

  • The worst part is this stupid asshole won't acknowledge that everyone else is right and has been all along - it's "You just happened to be right, but MY special conclusion now, happening now, is the only logical way to have concluded this."

  • Just put ketchup and plaster on a dried out pita.

  • You got lucky. Companies can, and frequently do, either completely go under after a few years, or revamp their service, shutting down the old one, and saying "This is a NEW service. It requires a NEW lifetime membership."

    Unless it's protected by a legal definition, the only thing between your lifetime membership and getting nothing at all is the good will of a company that does not care after they already have your money.

    Even if they ARE an "honorable" company, and I use that term loosely, the moment someone buys them, they have absolutely no obligation to honor lifetime memberships. Most EULAs for lifetime memberships give the company total discretion to shut it down at any time for any reason.

    Beyond that, $750 seems a LOT like a "kill the golden goose to get the eggs" move. Would look GREAT on a quarterly report of revenue, coming with huge executive bonuses, before selling and getting out, and letting someone else manage running the infrastructure on reduced revenue.

    Bottom line? The lifetime membership MIGHT work out, but it's a GAMBLE. It's a gamble that you get in early enough to get your value out before the marks in a ledger indicate it's not worth providing anything for you anymore. Meanwhile, doing the Open Source solution is free now, free forever, and has NO gambling component.
