The future is here, and it apparently includes ads even in our AI chatbots. ChatGPT is rolling out ads for free users, while the paid tiers get to stay in their walled garden of ad-free bliss... for now. What's your immediate reaction to this? And what's the most annoying ad you predict seeing?

@gregorw @ceedee666 @Mianbsp but still only the #BTP #trial with 90-diay-license, right? No #freetier?

Dùng Oracle Cloud Free Tier làm VPS trung gian để truy cập máy chủ nội bộ khi không có quyền port forwarding. Phù hợp để làm relay (reverse proxy/VPN) nhờ băng thông tốt và miễn phí. Lưu ý: có thể bị giới hạn tốc độ hoặc khóa nếu dùng quá mức. Ổn cho nhu cầu truy cập từ xa nhẹ. #OracleCloud #FreeTier #SelfHosting #VPS #ReverseProxy #Cloud #CloudFlare #Tailscale #Hosting #MáyChủ #LưuTrữĐámMây #KếtNốiTừXa

Hold the phone! 🎧 Spotify's free tier just got a major upgrade: no more forced shuffles! You can actually pick your own songs now. I guess they finally realized some of us like to *choose* our auditory experiences. What's the first track you're playing that Spotify previously held hostage?

bye bye 👋 #SAP #BTP #FreeTier
It was nice knowing you.
You were a very valuable tool for trying out real $stuff behind marketing fluff.
😢
PS: fun fact: I wasn't able to find _any_ of the IDs in the termination mail _anywhere_, not in the BTP Cockpit, not in me.sap.com. So eventually, someone else's account will be terminated?!? muahahaha 🙈

I’ve been finalising a project on a topic so niche, even those in the relevant industry don’t really understand it. Mostly due to my own stubbornness.

also I didnt want to pay for it.

I had to solve a lot of scaling problems. Problems more interesting than the topic of the analysis.

So if you don’t care much about Internet registry CDS support, but do care abt squeezing every cycle of free tier compute possible. This is for you

Apparently https://fly.io don't have a free offering anymore. I wonder whether that's the VCs squeezing, or something else led to that decision.

#flyio #VentureCapital #FreeTier

Lots of service providers offer a #freetier of their service. The idea is to let you kick their service’s tires freely. If you need to go above the free tier at any point, you’ll likely stay on the service and pay. In this day and age, most services are online and accessible via an #API. Today, we will implement a free tier with #ApacheAPISIX.

A recent post by @avdi about something probably not being suitable for most dev's hobby use because it charges by the minute made me pause.

It is extremely fucking weird ™️ that #developers resist spending money on #hobby projects, given how most hobbies are notorious money pits.

*{_looks nervously at his #leatherwork and #homebrew gear_}*

Why is this? We'll happily commit our companies into paying tens of thousands of dollars a year so our dashboards have nicer CSS, or so we don't have to implement login (which, fair), but the removal of _every_ #freetier has swathes of developers up in arms about how they don't want to _pay_ for the _literal actual resources_ they're making use of.

Fastly has supported the Rocky Linux project since the beginning. Over the last year they have served up an average of more than 1.5 BILLION monthly requests for us for free, as part of their open source mission. And NOW, Fastly has a free tier!

I just discovered that my YouTube channel have over 300h of content.
9minutes of them is in my only public film.

all of other videos are family content or my personal vlogs where i am talking to myself just to improve english or to say loud about some ideas... or i want to share sth with friend in the form of vlog....

i know that i need to clean up that shit but... I think now that i am one of few who overuse Youtube service for their free movie hosting ;-)

I think I can go from 300h to about 30-40h of movies when i will have there only recent vlogs and family content. but idea of having so much movies there... is fun for me.
