If hypocrisy is what it takes to keep literal evil the fuck outta here. Small price to pay

That would require an admission of fault for the last year of these attacks on WFH. No no we don't do that here

I find the adblock yt prompt only shows now when I try to open two tabs of YouTube. Second tab has this message but the first plays fine. I think ublock probably deployed a half fix already

I bought a Husqvarna chainsaw from Canadian tire and it was garbage. I thought I was getting the same one my buddy got (he got his at the local kubota). Turns out Husqvarna just licenses out their name for the right price. It was a garbage chainsaw with orange plastic and the sticker was even upside down.

Much of that is just bots and if you spend any measurable time on the internet you start to ignore stuff with variable capital letter words and emoji spam so it's not outside of the realm of possibility that the person you're responding to, doesn't see that stuff. I don't really either. My brain auto filters paragraphs of anti woke/racist rhetoric like pop-up ads.

Except they'll jack prices anyway then if the tariffs don't stick they will say it was a precautionary cushion against potential tariffs while collecting the profits.

I mean isn't this what we want? The data is Public. It's already being done behind closed doors. I'd rather this transparency. Especially because there's such a large % of the population tuned out to how large companies with 8-10 figure r&d departments focused on marketing psychology manage to control them.

Even as aware as I think I am I'm certain there are 10s of thousands of strategies being employed that take advantage of my "immunity". At least with FOSS and public records steming from that, the average Joe gets a peak behind the curtain and sees what is possible.

I had a conversation recently about mcdonalds app surge pricing and they never heard about surge pricing which is totally fine but they fought me on the premise "there's no way they can do that" on technical feasibility to just "no one would do that". I'm not sure what they were defending but I digress. My biphenton has kicked in and I should stop typing right n

Lunchtime when it melts it just looks like they showed up to work drunk

It's been 5 minutes since the new thing did a new thing. Is it the end?

For just a solid combat system, hogwarts. Was really surprised. They had some solid people design and build it. Really stood out against the rest of the game which wasn't bad by any stretch just repetitive. There are some serious combat challenges too. Just make sure you play on hard. It really needed one difficulty higher tbh.

And they actually wonder why tech literate people shit all over them every chance they get. This is some trash human behavior.

It'd be like if you sprayed fart spray all over your neighbors table at a flea market because they also have a few pokemon cards for sale but they're in better condition than yours.

"Rather than improve myself I'm going to block others from doing better than me" is the corporate worlds motto ATM. Race to the bottom
