Well, back then when the Pixel 7a had just come out. So comparable to an iPhone 11 now
Or even Google itself. I got a 150€ trade in rebate for an iPhone 8 with a cracked screen.
But if I called you in the middle of the night to offer you something that will make every 9th sneeze on every second tuesday of March in a leap year less irritating your first reaction wouldn't be to thank me.
A minor inconvenience compared to the thousands of charger cables and wall boxes that would charge driving the cars for a very small moment.
Sure. But getting something free for something you'd have done anyway? There's many ways to nudge people/yourself into specific behaviors even though the rewards are not worth it when thinking it through
This is exactly what the GDPR does (except it's 4%, not 10%).
We're in the middle of finding it out with climate change.

The comparison to pandoc seems needlessly hostile. Most users get pandoc as a standalone binary (e.g. the Debian package). Pandoc is a bit on the larger size, but for what it offers (templating, lua filters, built-in…

Ironically I found my current keyboard (a quite nice Cherry) in a store near me. For specialty parts where it doesn't make sense to have to them sitting around in stores everywhere online shopping is still allowed, but…
I have a family of four and we manage just fine. The kids aren't toddlers any more (which only means that we can't put everything in the bottom layer of the stroller), but when they come to the age where they eat a…
