Fun fact: Behavioural scientists discovered that if you put a treat-dispensing lever in a rat cage, well, the rats will press it - but if you let it dispense treats arbitrarily they'll press it *more* than if every press yields a reward. Unpredictability causes obssessive behavior.
If you read this article by Cory Doctorow (npub1fdr…lvhs) you'll probably understand why I thought of that little bit of trivia right now.
Also: Beware of "pay by the pull" deals ‼️
