Funny how a month with 28, sometimes 29, days costs the same as the months with 31 days.

Funny how it’s probably averaged out over 12 months instead or something.

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

“Could not fetch embedded watch page”

I got the same error on a different vid from the bot, the server it's linking to might be having issues. Or the bot is broken, IDK.

Remember what the door knob said.

It must be the landlords, because it benefits them to scam their tenants out of three extra days.

There are plenty of services that you might not have for a year though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That’s why it’s averaged over each month, there for 6 months, you pay for 6 instead of 12.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

But if it's averaged for a year and you only subscribe or whatever in February it's less than the yearly average for a month.

So…? Do you measure each piece of cake with a caliper…?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (24 children)

There are an average of 30.437 days in a month so if you pay a monthly payment for your average February that's 2.437 days off the average. That's nearly 10% of a month.

And yes if you are selling pieces of cake they should be the same size.

If every month was 28 days long one year would be 13 identical months! We could take a whole month off every year!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

13 months plus one day. 13×28+1=365

Plus an additional day on leap years.

Landlords would get one extra month of money
