Depends on the country.

In the UK 3-5 years is typical. In the US it’s fixed for the whole term and you can even remortgage to a lower rate during the term if it becomes available.

Everyone should be using minimumReleaseAge (or their package managers equivalent) to block installing recently updated packages.

What the other replies shitting on macOS seem to be overlooking is the support Apple provides.

Got stuck on something? call the support line or web chat.

Want to go to a training session? go to a local store.

The BNPL company also charges the merchant much more than a credit card company does. Something like 6%. So they’re also making money on people who do pay in full at 0%.

I wonder if the target of these bot communities is not Lemmy users, but rather to be slurped up by AI scrapers in the hope of influencing future models.
