@lemmy.oneI think Wendy's surge pricing debacle was when we knew this would be the future as consumers but it's been in the works forever. It's the main reason we see so many points programs these days.
Hopefully we regulate this so these systems don't extract more from the needy than they already have. They're the ones most willing to give up their data to save money now, albeit at their own peril as it's used against them later.
There's a Wikipedia page about this phenomenon where advertisers started to prefer video in 2015.
Explains exactly what you're seeing.
I too am addicted to Balatro. I made progress though as I installed RDR2. But afterwards right back to Balatro.
Nothing also hasn’t revealed if removing the rear panel will provide easier access to the CMF Phone 1’s internals, including its battery, but the feature may focus more on customizing appearance and functionality than improving repairability.
Hopefully it's still repairable in that case. Although I'd love to see it prioritized more.
The worst part is it changes every few months! So you get friends all over the world depending on when they decide to dip out 🫠
