Have you had that "Upcoming price change for your Microsoft 365 subscription" email yet? They want to charge you an extra 50%ish for AI features, and they do *not* make it easy to find the way to turn it off. It took me minutes of searching - this is a particularly evil dark pattern.
"Switch plan" just lets you pick between annual and monthly billing. You want "Turn off recurring billing" and then "Current subscription without AI".
You're welcome. Please boost for others.

I haven't seen a GameBoy IRL until 2018. NES was a very viable gaming platform in my locality well into 00s, though a few lucky kids had a SEGA Genesis or (gasp) a PS1. Most kids indeed went to a "computer club"; having a local club and knowing its admin meant your game saves won't be erased between the times you visit the place - using floppies for backups wasn't always allowed due to endless viruses. Fun times. Strange times
mutual aid urgently needed
Hey, I'm a domestic abuse survivor who's slowly getting their life together.
I've gradually been finding better opportunities but sometimes things can still be a struggle for me, and I didn't have an easy time of my mental health in December so I'm currently set to not be able to afford rent (£400) in a few days.
Any help would be greatly appreciated:
