Amazon gives non-Prime members free shipping at $35 or more of eligible items. Instead of simply letting users get the product with free shipping, they’ve added a discount that prices it exactly one cent below the $35 limit, while only subsidizing the price with $3.38, which is about half of what they’ll then charge you for shipping.

    It’s not lazy. You just have no perspective.

    Nah, fuck that, you’re just lazy and entitled. Obviously sometimes things come up, but why does everything have to ship in less than a week? Amazon doesn’t even have the best price on 95% of shit anymore, and hasn’t for years - ditching Amazon has saved me money on nearly every single item, I just have to wait slightly longer for them.

    You can support nazis if you want - it’s not illegal, despite every rational perspective in the world. But don’t blame your support on bullshit like “I can’t think ahead more than two days.”

      What computer and phone do you use?

      What social media do you use?

      What are your 5 major pieces of software?

      I don’t use Amazon or Walmart. But I understand I have the privilege of choosing. You do not understand that. Grow up.

        What social media do you use?

        lemmy and discord, i was an early adopter, and have given them 0 dollars.

        What are your 5 major pieces of software?

        90% of it is fully open source software. Very little is closed source, none is paid.
