Just one reason their stock price is down. They no longer report subscriber numbers — you can probably guess why. It’s strange to me that a public company can just hide data from investors that might reveal when a company isn’t doing so hot.
It’s also stupid they would clamp down like this on ad-supported plans. Advertisers want eyeballs, and this means less of them. Reminds me of Reddit moving to a log-in only model.

3·1 day agoThe veto is a strong power. And if the Congress is still staffed with do-nothings, then they can rule by executive fiat like the current administration does.

1·1 day agoI’m amazed Element, Cube, and the like haven’t made a comeback as EV models. The boxy design makes them perfect for a floorboard of batteries.

Are there separate payments to the songwriter and label, or is the penny the full payment?

Electric Vehicles@slrpnk.net•Walmart added five new fast chargers to my area in Skokie, ILEnglish
4·3 days agoSincere question: why would you need to charge at a walmart or other retail charger — do you by any chance live in an apartment complex? Not a slight, just trying to figure out if apartment people are finally adopting electric vehicles. Chargers at places like these could help with that kind of adoption.
I recommend getting one that doesn’t have a pfas/teflon coating on the basket. There are some with glass bottoms, but they don’t look as convenient as the drawer/basket type. Some drawer models have ceramic coatings.
Also, a convection toaster oven can work as an air fryer. These usually have an “air fryer” setting. Probably not as convenient as the drawer/basket models, but they have the advantage of being multipurpose.
Hope this is helpful.

Texas@lemmy.world•Corpus Christi City Council rejects $60,000 gift to benefit water desalination plantEnglish

Considering how many streamers are encouraging people to sign up for the ad-supported plans, I think they’re making more money from the ads. Of course, they’re double-dipping just like the cable companies used to do. Charging for a subscription, and then making even more money by showing you ads. The OP’s screenshot is like how they used to charge for each cable descrambler box in a home. Wanna watch in both the bedroom and the living room? Pay up!
It’s just greed.
