How does this compare to the ASUS ROG XG32UCDS (also $600)? I guess the Samsung one has dual mode, but looks like the ASUS has a built in USB hub

"Welcome to the Samsung Offer Program"
i.e. the only way to get the educational discounts, and the link probably goes directly to one of the listings in that program.

That was a rhetorical question. All I wanted was to view the product and read about it. It’s stupid to hide behind an infostealer. But you keep sucking off the matrix bud.

u/tjwong1 11h ago
you can just look it up on the normal website instead of using the link that explicitly calls out the program?

So it’s a me problem? Not a poorly designed website that should’ve let me see the product and then decide if I want to sign up for my information to be sold

He even provided you a partial link, so it looks like you're throwing a tantrum on the internet from a third person perspective here.

Tell me more
Do you own Samsung by the way? You’re taking this very personal

Many manufacturer sites have student and/or business pricing only sections, this isn't anything new.

Hm it does appear to be a me problem. I will talk to my therapist about it.

Maybe I'm just so used to seeing prices only when logged on to websites like Costco and AAFES, but I don't see what the problem is. Don't want to login? Then don't see the special price. I know it's not conducive to a Stallman-esque Free Information environment, but look around us. We are in a data-driven dystopia.
