Hearing about this got me to reevaluate whether I needed Prime and I ended up cancelling altogether. Just a heads up, if you cancel mid-subscription (I was on the yearly plan) you get the option to cancel service immediately and refund what you didn't use. I was supposed to re-up in May and ended up getting $63 refunded.

I still can't even log into Threads because I log into Instagram with a Facebook account.

I had a Thinkpad T440s that had a ridiculous battery life. I think I picked I picked it up on eBay for like $300 4 or 5 years ago. I tinkered with it and ended up breaking it and didn't have time to put it back together/fixed up but that thing was a dream. I have a "desktop replacement" PC that's huge and unwieldly and I wish I just kept my T440s with an upgraded display and like 4 days of battery life.

We used Wyze cameras for years but their quality has dropped considerably in the last few. Every time you open the app they've got a new popup to remind you to buy more stuff and their app only works half the time. I wish there was something affordable I could set up and host at home without having to pay ridiculous prices for hardware and making it a second job to set up and/or maintain. Wyze was the answer there but they've been sitting uncharged at the front and back door for months now because their app just wasn't worth using.

I have a Kindle paperwhite without ads, worth paying extra imo. I use Calibre to convert any books I “find” to mobis and send via email through Calibre. I’ve also done this with manga and it’s been working well. Loves me my paperwhite.
