Your toaster dies the second you unbox it. Pants rip on day one. The quality of everything is trash now. This is what bigheaded people call enshittification. Companies deliberately design products to break right after the warranty. This is due to the so-called “Hunt for Infinite growth.” Steady profits ain’t enough. They need MORE, so they skimp, shrink packages, and shove everything behind subscriptions. Infinite growth is a plague, and it hurts your personal finance.

You can buy better quality, it just costs more. If all you care about is price, it’s a race to the bottom.

    Sometime you can't anymore. I bought 2 remote-controlled car for my daughter, including one that was expensive from a reknowed company, both had irremediable problems after 1hour.

    Looked for something higher end that can be played inside the apartment, but there is literally no offer. Only metal replica of high end car but still with crappy mechanism.

    If anybody has a recommendation I'm all ears.
