This question was inspired by my hatred of Temporal Anti-Aliasing which, in many games nowadays, is poorly used as a performance bandaid. On lower resolutions it will smudge and blur the image and certain bad cases of TAA will cause visible ghosting.

Yet in spite of all this, certain games won't let you turn it off or have hair/fur/foliage look like dogshit without it so sometimes I still use it.

I k ow the feeling. I hate throwing things away that are perfectly functional. In my case I've had a food processor that I hated since day one but couldn't return after using. Been more than 6 years.

My rented modem. I'm not knowledgeable enough to buy and set up my own and I hear stories of people getting throttled for not renting from the ISP.

your mother /s. The google productive suite is something I have to use, but I do not like it. I've cordoned it off to a separate Firefox profile with no personal stuff on it, but still.

App's pretty meh and it's generally pretty meh but it's dirt cheap. 1€ per transaction is amazing when all I really do is passive investing.

They did notify me that they're going to delete my personal data when I hadn't followed up on my registrations for a few months which suggests they take data privacy serious and is the reason I ultimately went with them. Scalable Capital (another "cheap" neo-broker who I started the signup process with at about the same time) OTOH hasn't sent a word tome to this day; I should send a GDPR request soon.
