I am amazed that people still use Xitter.

The industrial revolution resulted in climate change that makes it borderline impossible to be active outside in the summer.

Eh, not yet. For me it's much worse to be inside in a building without A/C, then being outside doing activities. You just need to be careful and do not expose yourself too much to the sun.

New tech made me hate IT. Especially shit like Windows 11 and AI.

It definitely is better, but it sill has some stupid quirks that in some cases could probably be fixed by few lines of code, like not locking the screen when you are on the lyrics screen. It also is very slow to start-up in offline mode, which drives me nuts. But otherwise it is much better performant than Spotify and has better ways to listen to new music, instead of the dumb intelligent randomize feature on Spotify.

So what do you recommend, Siberia?

That's interesting, here in Poland you pay ~$12 for the family plan.

I didn't know it was that expensive in US. That sucks, man.

I can think only for one legitimate reason:

  • Google bought out YouTube and operated it at loss for most of its life, effectively making it a monopoly in the process, and only started to earn money on it when there was no way any other alternative would come up and endanger it.

If you ignore this, YouTube Premium is a pretty good offer. And I personally like the fact that I support content creators, without the need of watching ads that are nothing more than cancer for society.

That said, I would still prefer YouTube to return to its roots and separate from Google, since it's pretty much possible for it to stand on its own right now, I guess.

Ok, that's a good point then.

Can't you just get a delivery to box-o-mat (or whatever the name of it is in english), or is it just a big delivery?

IPA [aɪ̯ pʰiː eɪ̯] as for International Phonetic Alphabet for the real win.
