Dürfen die buergergeldbezieher dann fairerweise eine Nullrunde für Lindners Lobbygelder, Bezüge und Aktiendividenden ausrufen?

Das war ja auch früher, als es noch Bäume gab!

A windows computer simply cannot run for months without updates or rebooting! /s

Lol, now that I think of it I had never seen a YouTube ad or sponsor where I would say "this is an ethical and fairly priced product without a catch that I would like to buy"...

Willst du etwa Erträge aus Mieten, Dividenten, Erbschaften und Finanztransaktionen höher besteuern?

Nope, you need more than 1 subscription, because quite often services only offer a few of the seasons of your favorite show, while the others are on different services.

It could be a cost issue. A chip that collects data from connected sensors and sends it via Wifi is small and cheap. Adding a display and buttons ads size, complexitiy and costs. Therefore manufacturers offload the interface to an app and a device you already own, and they can update without expensive recalls.

If the task or device is more complicated and the device would also need it's own storage, CPU, display, sound etc. the product costs could go up by hundreds of dollars, depending on functionality and how many units they plan to ship.

I also hate apps. Still have my 2010 smartphone in a drawer that still turns on, however it;s useless because google playstore, maps and email now used an more modern SSL standard that this phone does not support anymore, and it won't receive any updates. I expect the same will happen to a lot of devices that are controlled by apps when the manufacturer decides he won't support it anymore, or Google breaks the app because some new protocol must be supported now that didn't exist 2 years ago when the app came out.

Large banks don’t mess around with EOL software that has a risk of vulnerabilities

Well, more complex modern software has an higher risk of (yet unknown) vulnerabilities.

The thirteenth floor was a (pretty good) remake of the German 1970s movie "Welt am Draht".

Try opening your subscription page as usual with your ublock, but then right-click "open in private window" the videos you want to watch. Works for me.
