I don't get how we are in the year 2025, most advanced technology we have ever had in human existence.... And everything is behind a paywall. Literally everything. Whenever I search the web for a solution as an individual person, not a business or Mega Corporation, just a simple person trying to do a few creative things... Everything is behind a paywall

For example, I want to create a logo image for a personal Tableau dashboard that has a transparent background. Just a struggling person trying to find work and show what I'm capable of making. You know what I find? Everything is behind a payroll. One of the first results on Google that can actually help you is canva! But everything on canva is behind a paywall! You want to resize your document? Transparent background? Paywall. Okay then what if I go to a website to remove the background? There's lots of them on the Internet that say they are free. Sorry, those are all behind paywalls as well. You have to upload your image to them and then by credits but they don't tell you that when you get to the website....

Also, editing PDF files... Year 2025, you cannot possibly edit a PDF file for free, and most of the PDF readers out there or PDF viewers have some sort of clickbait this is free! Except that is not free, it's behind a paywall and you'll find that out eventually....

I think we are all very excited to see what AI can finally do for Humanity because I am so damn sick of everything being

 

Walmart near me has started using receipt checkers lately and they don't even really do their job, it's kind of a gimmick really. They just look at the receipt for a second Don't even look at your cart, but they stop you every time. It's just such a waste of my time when I'm in a hurry. I had one person even tell me that it was required by law. No it's not! There's no law in the USA that says they have to check your receipt.

 

This is the longest and most insane job posting I've ever seen. Viewing it on mobile is like 25 pages long

 

Nothing more disappointing to me than seeing a game I might enjoy... and then it's only available on PC on Epic Games store. Why can't it be available on Epic, Xbox game store and Steam? It's so annoying, like you have no choice but to use Epic... which I would literally do ANYTHING not to use.
