Cool, thanks. $5 -$6 / month is cheap.
Hello. I am a single, middle aged man from midwestern United States. Pic is not me.

I’ll bite. What is frugal Usenet?
Consumers are getting fucked. Media companies will continue to make it worse while trying to improve their bottom line. How long until it is all pay per view at sky high prices that only keep going up?
I try to own my media in physical form as much as possible. But I don’t think it will be long until physical is not an available format. Or unaffordable, like vinyl is now.
We should have resisted and stopped the DMCA. We should stop all media being rental only. But we do not resist, we comply. We bend over and get fucked like the sheeple we are.
Until consumers take control of their government they will continue to take it up the ass from corporations. They count on you to comply.
I’m a bit confused about those anti features. Can anyone explain?
What a shitshow streaming is. So glad I’m not funding it at all.
Not trying to be funny at all with this comment.
Blocking websites blocks speech. Speech is generally defined pretty broadly in the American court system and this seems pretty clear cut. If you can’t censor music or stop people from wearing certain clothes then I think blocking websites looks a lot like censorship of speech that should be free.
IANAL, but I think (and hope) there would be legal challenges to a law like this.
Do they really think they can limit free speech like that? How will this law stand up to legal challenges?
The low end of Brother color laser printers is $300. If they must have color, I would buy that. If color is not necessary, buy a B&W duplex Brother.

A few notes:
Own music, do not rent.
I’m buying CDs from smaller labels directly. Cheaper than Scamazon sometimes. A couple examples: https://metalblade.indiemerch.com/collections/cds https://metalonmetalrecords.com/shop/
My library has loaned me many CDs over the years. I still have an external CD burner I can connect to my PC. Thank you, library.
Used media stores are awesome. Give them your business.

I do not see any dimensions mentioned on the linked page. Is a google pixel 8 small enough?
5.9 height x 2.8 width x 0.4 depth (in), 150.5 height x 70.8 width x 8.9 depth (mm)
Image search might be pretty easy.
Your question assumes that users have a clue. Unsafe assumption.
We won’t get cable again. Video streaming is already much worse and declining rapidly.
Laughs in LG v10…
Maybe it IS time for a new phone!
Serious question: Is the difference more apparent IRL (not a picture)? I’m not seeing a big enough difference that I’d spend much more for OLED.
Isnt it legal for you too download the movies if you own physical copies?
Degoogle instead.
