    Honestly, what’s not expensive these days? I did some remodeling in my home, and boy oh boy did we go over the budget with things I considered cheap. I looked into different manufacturers and they all claim the same thing I found here, the materials, prices going up, and labor shortage… Not really sure what’s the difference, but one thing is for sure - I’m not rich enough to buy cheap things (and replace them all the time).




  • Whoa, I need to recover from reading this. Where to even begin?? Asks for a phone number? Nonetheless, but a WhatsApp phone number? Hmm, a red flag, but it’s nothing compared with the rest of the post. A friend asked me maybe two weeks ago to help him make a QR code for a restaurant menu since I deal with them a lot for work (it’s actually not that difficult, see here). The generator I use is likely the safest in the market, with all bells and whistles, and I always tell anyone who asks - check the generator carefully before making a QR code, especially for business and especially if you plan to print it. Read the reviews. Look for security features. Plus, many advertise free codes, but it turns out - not really (people create, print, and then two weeks later - hello, pay a subscription if you want your code to work again). And I thought this was bad. But what I read now escapes reality. A big thanks to those who posted the archived copy, by the way.

    It sort of depends on the topic. Some things I can do nothing about and I find them infuriating, perhaps to know nothing about. But generally speaking, I agree with the OP, not easy to find a reliable source of information despite the amount (or precisely because of the amount).
