What Im realizing is that they still win even if the product gets worse. They don't care about the product. They care about the short term gains that come from fucking around with their bottom line expenses and then presenting that to shareholders as value gain.

Modern day capitalism rewards nothing of value.

I thought we had generally agreed that anything can be addictive?

And this link is broken for me. Anyone else?

because conservatives believe everyone thinks like them and are just scared to admit it

just need to preserve this line because its so spot on

In order to be a baddie, you generally need to be super self-righteous. Cops are always self-righteous.

as if rich people care about how much they pollute

May the next iteration of the internet include more people journeying to smaller communities that fit them, and less scooping everyone up and exposing them to as much outrage as possible to addict them.

Ideally all social media use goes to near zero

The idea that you can control capitalists with 'your wallet' is flawed. Its never worked that way. Capitalism is controlled by regulations, or its not and you get crony capitalism.

I have been telling youtube im not interested in Joe Rogan for years. It still gives me joe rogan youtube shorts

Feels good to be reading this somewhere other than reddit

hahaha I really want to know what you're talking about!

Yes, to further clarify your clarification, just the post title is incorrect because they are claiming 'consecutive' days. Without that word its accurate.

Can confirm this headline is incorrect.

how is it any different from now, when they come after us and NOT the rich? Like we never stopped getting policed that was rich privilege only, and only because of the complicated tax structures that open up to you once you start a business that has some cash throughput

total fear-mongering like you say

Other countries seemed to have some common sense when it comes to capitalism in that they largely don't allow capitalist incentives to entirely consume areas of public good, such as healthcare / education / and yes even government services such as tax collection.

The USA kind of forgot during the cold war that crony capitalism is a thing and the incentive to make the most money possible isn't compatible with providing public goods.

Finally AI does something useful

So what makes lastpass untrustworthy and do we think competitors like 1pass are any different?

Can we not abandon facebook to be reclaimed by nature? I haven't been on that site in years

Same I'm trying to keep this energy. It'd be nice to have it now, but it's also nice to have it to look forward to.

Capitalism working as expected. 25 flavors of the same bullshit

Does everyone else remember that one long snow barrel level as much as I do? Beating that level specifically for the first time gave me such dopamine.
