Hi, just registered and logged in, but your link just takes me to the catalogue page - is that intentional? Is there a specific course I should be searching for?
I've been thinking of pulling the plug on getting a dji mavic (maybe mini pro which is 249g and doesn't need a licence, but also thinking of another dji mavic pro also). A1/A3 is around £200 elsewhere.
"Not available in your region." You're saying it's because of data privacy laws. I'm in the EU, so it's not available in the whole EU? Why even is it so privacy sensitive? Do I have to share any private information to use the app?
The EU rules are essentially that if you give them information for a particular purpose, they can only use it for that purpose and no other. So they obviously want to break this.
Doubtless if you use this you're training a model that understands what kind of interactions romantic partners find meaningful and sentimental.
Same in Slovakia. I love self-checkouts, been using them preferably. Paired with scanning items to the store app as I pick them from aisle and then just scanning self-checkout QR code so all the items neatly import to checkout register and I just pay for it and go (Kaufland, Tesco). It's been really good experience.
Is this a problem for people? Like, do they not know how much they pay for subscriptions? I have detailed knowledge of every service I pay for and I seriously don't understand the issue.
Yes, lots of people don’t track their money that well. There’s an industry devoted to helping people do better at tracking their money.
One of the problems is that subscriptions aren’t consolidated. You might subscribe to streaming services individually or through a third party, such as Roku or Apple. And then of course, there are other types of subscriptions, such as music, news, patreon, recurring political contributions, and substack.
Another issue is that you might subscribe to a service which you are excited about, but you don’t actually end up using it, and you forget about it entirely.
And probably the main problem is that a lot of people don’t review their credit card statements rigorously.
Ah, I see. I didn't want to brag, if that's how it felt. When I was at a low point in life, I learned to monitor all my expenses and keep money on short leash. I can understand someone who never had to deal with that kind of situation never learned the skill and might have problems with keeping track of subscriptions. Thank you for the elaboration.
You don't understand it because it doesn't impact you?
I keep an eye on my subscriptions too, mainly because my banking app automatically categorises outgoings so they are easy to keep track of.
It is easy for subscriptions to pile up though, at one point last year I had three subscriptions to different on-demand training and book repositories. I realised I hadn't used them for three months and cancelled them all.
Many gyms relie on subscribers not using the facilities, they are commonly oversubscribed. Cancelling something like a gym subscription, or a meditation app has some amount of guilt associated with it too, like you failed to achieve what you imagined when you first signed up.
