Because it's convenient. I use curl often, but admit to using Bruno even more often. And yes, I could have some organized scripts or something, but for playing with various APIs daily, sometimes importing whole .json collections, or even setting up credentials in one place and reusing them across all the requests from a collection - that's just fast, easy and convenient. Same for responses - yes, I could work with jq and analyze in the console, but often I don't really know what exactly I'm looking for, so it's just easier to have it visually parsed and click through items
Had the very same issue, couldn't even update the firmware - after some tinkering turns out the solution is fairly simple - ssh into it, disable ntp, set the correct time, enable ntp, reboot.
I'm in the same boat, but have decided one day to take a closer look at my spending and trends over time, but it appears all the apps are budget-first. YNAB is one of the better ones though, you can install a browser extension for better reports and completely ignore the budgeting parts and use it mostly for the bank sync part, and it works. For US banks I suppose it will work like a charm. I'm in the EU and due to specificity of my bank there were issues, so ultimately I ended up with a custom solution processing .csv files exported from the bank.
For the past 6 years or so I've been using an app to record 1 second long video every day, and then create a montage of a week/month/year/whatever using those seconds. And it's amazing, you feel like nothing much is changing in life, and then you get a montage of the last year and it shows how fast everything is actually changing. And the format is perfect too, it's not boring, just a second a day, you don't have to do it every single day, and it still is enough to bring back memories.
I’ve done the same, also for the past six years! Though I still haven’t figured out how to ask people to feature in my daily 1 Second without feeling awkward about it…
Not the original poster, but I use 1 Second Everyday, which is the original app that eventually spawned a bunch of copycats. It’s a little buggy from update to update, and I think they’ve added a yearly payment (I’m grandfathered into the free plan), but it’s likely the best you’ll see out there. It’s never lost a video for me in six years.
I guess not, just tried that and there's an additional step at the beginning - where you have to explicitly choose if you want monthly billing ($79,49/mo), yearly but billed monthly ($52,99/mo), or yearly paid upfront ($599,88)
> Yes. The annual subscription is < $250/year, so I don't believe it's expensive enough to stop people purely because it's a big charge.
One point to add - If I bought it for a month and liked in enough, I'd get annual for that price just to save me the hassle of getting invoices/receipts each month and having to run them through accounting. One payment, one invoice, done for the year.
