It's similar here in Sweden. Usually they require a call to support, officially. However, I think there is a law/policy that require them to accept unsubscriptions by mail/message, regardless of what they say on their website

Maybe I described it in a bad way. I'm talking about renegotiating the interest rate with another bank. So the original bank loan is not moved in practice, it's just paid back in full. It's law here in Sweden that the mortgag

Sure, but it's a minimum. Also, the incentive here is aligned with what's best for the customer, i.e. they probably want to make their two step subscription process to become one step which automatically gives the user an easier p

What is silly? Your statement can be true at the same time... And just to be clear, I did not mean that it's the sole reason that people refute new ideas, I was just opening up the possibility that without mortality we might still have

Disclosure: I only read up until it was revealed what the policy was. This was always my opinion on this. "As easy to cancel as it is to sign up". It's simple, and completely shuts down this malicious behaviour without making

What if reluctance to accept new ideas later in life stems from mortality in the first place?

If anybody else wonders why a 0-ohm resistor is a thing, apparently it is because it makes it possible to install a jumper on printed circuit boards with the same equipment that is used for normal resistors. https://en.m.wikipedi

If it's not a joke/excuse as another comment mentioned, it might be connected to how some people sneeze when they are exposed to sunlight. Maybe it started like that for him, and then became associated with taking the hat off enou

Not this game, but DOS game + reconstruction made me think about something from my childhood. I used to get around 1h of Internet time (modem) per week. I used this to download stuff that I could use for the rest of the week. One time I sta

I had a summer job once, filling trains with sugar. They weighed about 15kkg per wagon (usually 5-10 wagons per train IIRC). One time the pulling cart broke down and we had to switch it for another, but when we took it off the rails we forg

Do you know they don't? Otherwise I would assume they have dumb incentives like that. In my previous company the legal team measured the number of "takedowns" of countefeit merch etc. as a key number. I assume this helped to

Maybe I'm stupid, but does he mean that as long as the task at hand is solved it doesn't matter how we categorize it. In the submarine case it would be "move through water", for example. Or is it deeper than that?

No, I don't work more because of the layoff waves. As a recent father with scars from a close-to-burnout situation, I value work-life balance more than anything else. So far, I'm not using AI much, mostly because I lack the routin

> 370mg of sodium vs 90mg of sodium. While I agree with your comment, this is very misleading unless you eat your steak raw and unsalted.
