https://www.comparitech.com/blog/vpn-privacy/amazon-prime-video-cost/ - found this article, and it seems what you are saying is correct. Polish catalogue is pretty small, has shows missing seasons, a lot of frankly obnoxious Polish crap.

I was thinking about that and then found this article - https://www.comparitech.com/blog/vpn-privacy/amazon-prime-video-cost/

They collected a lot of data and stats, like the catalogue sizes of Prime Video around the world and it varies massively. So that’s part of the answer. And Polish is mostly crap and midocrity, and few good older shows. Lower Decks last season is missing, this kind of crap happened to me number of times.

And Bandcamp Friday is today.

Poland

49 PLN is about 12 EUR\USD (and it’s been like this since 2021 I believe). I am losing my mind because I can’t figure this out. It’s the same thing - shipping, Prime Gaming, Prime Video, free Twitch sub?

That’s not different, that’s ludicrous. I don’t understand.

Is it really 140 USD annually in US? Here in EU it’s about equivalent of 12 dollars yearly… What is that?

I swear to God I’m losing it… It cost for me 12 USD per year in Poland.

Am I looking at the wrong thing?

I can buy PC for 12 USD? That’s a totally crazy idea.

For that much for sure I can’t buy many games, access to numerous movies and TV shows, additional Twitch sub and I don’t know what else they have. Frankly the Amazon store is the least important thing to me in this package.

Oddly enough I still might not get it, as that company definitely has become pretty fucky.

I kind of live without it by paying for it once a year and then you know, that’s it. What’s all the fuss about.

I wanted to start my comment with “As a long time fan of the company…”, but then I remembered I still use PI 2b few times a week for what feels like a decade+ and that is all I ever got (besides buying that first PI Zero for some reason also forever ago).

It also claim that with purchase you get infinite streaming.

In that case it was Bandcamp who deleted it. Literally the person in control of the band account with, at the very least, thousands sells of numerous albums (both digital and physical) awoken up one day and couldn’t find it. Deathspell Omega is the band. And I still see some of the albums in my wishlist. Sometimes the option to buy it suddenly appears, but then is gone with refresh. They did it so poorly that it broke the website/app in a minor way.

I swear to God that website is going to implode one day and it’s going to be sad.

It’s because we are buying access to product not the product itself. Many websites are doing that, I lost a few purchased albums on Bandcamp for whatever reason they see fit. With one band it was done so bad that I still see their albums in my wishlist even though they just one day went and deleted their whole band account apparently without stating reason or answering email.

Bacteria: Hold my beer.

On the other hand China has more people than US and Europe and US combined. Yes, that US twice plus Europe and then some.

I’m sorry, this totally was not my intention.

What’s going on is them ruining cats for me. Every time I see one of these pictures I want to puke at how unrealistic the animals look. I found myself to truly despise AI generated content with burning passion.

I think it’s called X because of Space X. Which follows simpleton Microsoft pattern of thinking basic numbers and letters are somehow “cool” - Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One. With the next one everyone’s mind will explode.

I think the problem was that the joke part wasn’t actually yours. We can laugh at the article (my favorite Onion article title of all time) but just quoting it is not enough to claim to be some sort of comedian. And on reddit there was popular sub about people falling for satirical articles.

We will need the context on whether you are joking or not.
