they'd go a 'no refunds' policy first, which they'd totally get away with in the u.s.

that's what it was initially, reporting decimal 'megabytes' for hdd capacity. lawsuits and settlements followed.
the dust settled and what we have now is disclaimers on storage products (from the legal settlements) and they continue to use 'decimal' measurements...
and we also a different set of prefixes for 'binary' units of measurements (standards body trying to address the problem of confusion): kibi, mebi, gibi, tebi, pebi, exbi; which are not widely used yet.. the 'old' ones are for decimal but still commonly used for binary.
so.... a $3 a month increase to prime.
one that will likely net amazon more profit when you don't give-in and pay the extra (ads being more profitable than subs, as netflix has realized).
at least you can choose to pay for one streamer at a time, binge, switch, repeat.
(for now, anyway.. until they all quit the full season drops and/or start putting their catalog on a rotation like the 'disney vault' was to home video).
i guess my age will show a bit here, but it's public radio that's on whenever i'm in the car. when there's kids along, though, it's usually soundtracks to their movies (yea, those. and i don't really mind--i like 'em too)
that's all the maga and far right do.. parrot each other ad infinitum
instead of being buried under 2-3 feet of snow, it was 55 degrees (F) today, so happy global warming works too.
silicon power has had very good prices at azn for 8gb ddr3 dimms for awhile now. cheaper than what i've found anywhere else, even for used stuff or ebay when i've checked there. have several desktops here maxed-out on ram (16 or 32gb) from those.
'intermittent' faults in memory chips is still defective memory.
it's an old one, now.. but it never gets old.
yup. it's twitter, just twitter. a service run by a twit.
that's fine if you have the patience for their shipping shenanigans. they sit on orders for days and/or ship from distant warehouses when you don't have the prime sub.
