HeyJoe

Started with cable and paid about $120 excluding the internet. Ditched that like 5 years ago, but my wife really wanted live tv. We went with Hulu live, and I wanna say it was like $40 fully loaded with unlimited screens and no ads. Then it went up and up and up. I think 1 year it went up twice. By the end, after ditching the no ads and unlimited screens, it was still $85 a month... just ditched all that last August and convinced my wife to ditch all cable except for 1. We now use Peacock with teacher discount for the live tv. She likes the news, some sports, the Olympics, and SNL, which is about the only things she watches live. It comes with other stuff as well, so for $9 a month, it was an incredible deal. We opted to also get Netflix with ads since we were saving so much anyway, which is about $8 i think, and paid for 1 additional year of hulu at $80. With all 3 theres not much thats missing honestly. We never use Hulu anymore, but occasionally she tells me a show we dont get and find out most of the time its on Hulu. We will probably cut it once the year is up as well. They keep rising the costs, and we keep consolidating. I love that after all that we somehow got everything, and for the lowest cost it's ever been at just under $20 a month. I host my own music, so we never cared about stuff like spotify.

Dam, i wish it was ranch.

Don't forget the part where he gets bored again and just takes tons of vacations. Honestly, I look forward to that phase.

As someone who has been pretty depressed for the last 3 years, I can honestly say I looked forward to sleeping because it was the only part of the day that felt right. The harder part was getting myself to sleep due to overthinking everything. The only time I knew it was wrong was when all I wanted to do all day was sleep, and that felt horrible.

Idk why people are down voting you unless they don't realize that the app used is for purchasing leftover food from places when they close. I recently saw a video showing what they got and thought it was really cool. I installed it and I don't live in the busiest of places but still found about 4 places nearby to try. Maybe ill try this week.

Yes! We do have several within a 20 min drive from us. They are normally pay by the hour, which is nice. I really wish for newer games as well, but I'm not sure if they just don't exist or they are too expensive that these places don't buy or rent them.

I absolutely hate what are considered arcades today. We visit them when going to the beach on vacation with the kids and even chucky cheese these days. There are no actual games anymore, and all they encourage is the first steps to gambling. They want tickets, and the games are mostly just things made around getting tickets. The claw machines are bigger than ever as well taking up way more area than I remember. The only thing left that I enjoy is skeeball...

I hope arcades make a comeback, but I have my doubts if this is what makes more money.

I got my Windows 11 key and office key from here:

There may be better places but the prices were better than I expected so I tried it. Site was fine, and both licenses worked perfectly. I think i saw get another 15% offer if your a new user so don't forget to sign up at the bottom to get more off your first purchase. I actually see office 2024 as well now and it's a bit much at $160, but from what I see Amazon and newegg are selling it for $250. I would still wait, I honestly have no idea what new stuff they ever add that is useful to me anymore, 2021 is probably fine for $100 less.

I know people mentioned the free alternatives, but if the subscription is really just for office, then why not buy a license to a non web based office version? They do still make them, as much as they want to remove them completely. You can even get them heavily discounted off 3rd party sites. I got my copy of 2019 for like $20 a year before it went EOL and I'm still using it because I really don't have the highest use for it. If you want office 2021, which is good with support until end of 2026, it's about $50 right now but I see them go lower all the time and can probably get it for $30. This is the pro version as well. Sadly I don't see office 2024 for sale yet on my site but I guarantee it will be a year from now.

They could just buy 40's now? They are probably a little cheaper now as well?

I just did this 2 days ago. Worked fine from my non apple web browser. And yeah they definitely let you know that the trial ends immediately if cancelled. I got a 3 month trial and I always sign up and cancel it, but apple, paramount+, and i wanna say either fubu or sling do this immediate cancel of the free trial so I have to setup calender invites.
