Open Teams in a mobile browser and Microsoft says your browser is unsupported and to download the app, but if you request the desktop site it works
Of course it looks like shit though. It doesn't size to your screen, it looks like normal teams but really small.
Outlook works in the browser fine, and maybe I don't want to have teams on my personal phone but occasionally want to check things

Tandata.io Advertises their prices as 1.53/m, But only if you pay upfront for 3 years.

This is sneaky, but everyone seems to be doing it these days.
They in big letters advertise €1.53 per month, but on checkout you discover they don't offer any monthly payment plans, you can only pay annually, and paying "only" one year upfront the price is 36% higher. For the price you thought you'd be getting you need to pay 3 years upfront.
There is a special place in hell for modern manufacturers of devices that have a USB-C port, but won’t charge from a modern USB-C charger.
I just went to charge my kitchen scale and it wouldn’t work until I dug out a USB-A -> C cable and plugged it into my desktop…
It just reminded me of how many devices like that I have. This scale, my wife’s sound torc, some car jumperstarters, and I think a one or two more…
I assume it’s because they just slap a usbc port on a dumb 5v circuit that doesn’t have a power negotiation controller. So the cable and the charger cant figure out the power needs of the device are and just never send any.

Delete account data from Eventbrite? Not if they have anything to say about it.
Eventbrite sends email verifying it’s me, puts the link for “Not you, let us know” almost overlapping with verify link.
If you manage to actually select the verify link, of course, the servers are conveniently down. Not to mention all of the irrelevant and invasive data pilfering questions they ask such as: what is your age, gender, highest level of education. Totally necessary to attend a concert, right? Fuck you, EventShite!!
Forced to accept all cookies on gadgethacks
If you click disagree, the site just doesn’t work at all. Instead, gadgethacks.com shows you this.
You know, normal sites make you accept the bare minimum that is required for the site to function, and give you an option to accept or reject all the tracking cancer and advertising plague.
Game forces you to accept selling your info to vendors before you can use it
If you hit "next", the consent window opens again and if you refuse any of them, you get put back at this screen so you're stuck in a loop.
This shitty practice is even endorsed by Google, as they are promoting this game to try out and earn points.
Edit: game is called Jewel Gold Empire: Match 3 and it's from some Korean company it seems: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.penta.empire.google

You can't make out a single sentence from this screen grab I took while reading an article.

Asshole Email Preferences
Purposefully deceitful toggle switch colours. Am I saving my preference to receive none, or to receive all? Found on clevertap.com's mailing list service.
WAPO "gift" articles now require signing up
Gift articles previously were accessible just with the link. The latest article I attempted to read now requires me to first sign up

The article in question https://wapo.st/4fp62oH
I am well aware of many work arounds. The point of this post was to show wapo has changed the way gift articles work, which previously didn’t require a workaround
