There is a small web service I need with a price tag of $39 one time payment. I’m current doing it myself for the last 1.5 hours, because I thought it would be fun. 2 minutes ago I upgraded to $120 subscription of Codex.

Reasonable thing was to pay $39 and forget about it.

As much as I hate subscriptions, one time payment for ongoing access to a web service never lasts.
