Plex is going to increase their Lifetime Plex Pass to a whopping $749.99 coming 1st July 2026.

I got it for $149.99 in 2016. That’s a 400+% increase.

See the rough charts I plotted below of their buys and sells against Tesla's stock movement.

I've made a super-simple website, where you can check which cities lay on the same parallel (and also the mirrored parallel on other hemisphere).

You can expect the same sunlight hours (longer nights, shorter days, etc) and similar sun power there.

The prompt I use:
"Re-create the attached image into a professional product photo in a commercial photography style. Use soft natural lighting, make the colors more vibrant while keeping them fully realistic, apply a shallow depth of field with gentle background blur, keep the main object in sharp focus, and create a neat, balanced composition with a clean simple background."
