Usually a lurker.
Maybe I should’ve just shut up and thought for a bit longer before writing that comment…
If you want to talk to me elsewhere, you know how to reach me.
Nothings more permanent than a temporary solution.
I assume the quoted part is all one comment from the other party?
Just asking because the formatting looks a bit like conversation.
Besides that, yeah it reads really immature and emotionally charged to the moon and back.
Maybe I’m not understanding it correctly. Could you maybe provide a small example? :)
Not indexers. Uploaders.
MeGusta is trash and I don’t like their encoding.
The group is also considered low tier by Trash-guides.
Personally I haveily gravitate towards NTb releases.
If I need 5min to read and understand a road sign which you will pass at >15km/h annd have 10sek to read it’s just bad.
Dunno how it’s with Ali but doesnt Temu also use forced labor?
Have you seen the wheel spin and Fomo coupons?
Maybe not as much but still highly gimmicky in comparison to normal e-commerce sites
My only reasons to buy on Ali is when I need something simple like velcro that can be cut to length or other small scale stuff electronics (e.g. Rasperry Pi 0) and it doesnt have to be fast.
Ironically the shipping is either free or so cheap it’s better than domestic amazon.
I often suspect they sell the same item but order it with DHL shipping (our domestic shipper) with high priority shipping included in the price (2€ item + 8€ shipping = 10€ on Amazon + “free” shipping)
Alis search is really bad.
Somehow the auto translation is active for the product names but if you search they don’t seem to apply.
For example:
Searching for Cherry MX switches brings up articles that are named “Mechanische Kirsch Schalter für Tastatur” (essentially the name but translated). Problem is: Cherry the company is like it’s in english as well, also the fruit amd thus will not be translated correctly.
Trying to search more niche stuff quickly gets annoying when trying to find something specific.
Seems like >70% of seller have the imprint in china or hong kong
Maybe not Logitech as a whole but small scale or low-end stuff
From the screenshots alone the interface looks similar to sync
Like a worse AliExpress
Not like MS couldn’t be sued.
It may be expensive but possible.
Unlike China. Good luck suing china (or the chinese government) as a whole. Maybe you’ll get out a domestic ban but I can hardly believe that they will care and probably will continue with their operation. But now it’s not on very legal grounds.
Not like I’d want contributions from the chinese state programmers.
Feels like an easy entry for state level supply chain attack.
But it helps in addition for the annoying stuff that is not possible to filter on the network.
Considering the volume businesses need weekly vs a peivate household I wonder why the very same cartridge lasts for >5 years
IMO: Not having to worry about money.
Bonus points if you could easily absorb being jobless for 1-2 years while not making any compromises.
