  1. I hope that people eventually figure out that most large companies have stopped asking permission. They know that their predatory business model is well defended.

  5. @HeavenlyPossum This is called Predatory Capitalism. An economic system only works until people start to cheat. And with wealth inequality increasing, that gets easier for the "ruling class" to do.

    And we know they are because they are clearly dismantling all the regulatory and enforcement tools.

  9. Interesting observation - after growing exceedingly tired of Acrobat trying to interject AI in every menu and screen, I went into the preferences and turned it all off.
    Suddenly, the finnicky Reading Order tool quit acting so strange, and the erratic tag panel behavior seems to have stopped as well.
    Is Acrobat tanking the user experience in an effort to force its AI on the user?

  13. Good! These organizations prey on older people and those with hoarding issues.

    As a son of a hoarder I blame (in part) companies like this for my mother's estate totaling $400 upon her death.

    My mother bought CRAP off these vultures instead of saving, instead of stocking her pantry with real food, instead of going outside.

  21. Man, if tobacco and alcohol are not allowed to advertise on television for obvious reasons, why the fuck am I required to tolerate others gambling habits every fucking commercial break? Fuck #BetMGM, #Fuck #FanDuel and most of all #Fuck your late stage #PredatoryCapitalism. I hate this reality

  23. Just a reminder amidst all this noise and chaos…Meta, Google, Snap, and TikTok all purposefully designed their social media products to addict children and teens with no regard for known harms to their wellbeing, and how that mass youth addiction was core to the companies’ business models.

  31. Centralized power generation being distributed over a large area is no longer smart, was never sustainable, and is now a big problem for expanding communities.

    But profiteers don't' make money off local energy distributed locally via mesh networks of rooftop and small solar, residential wind, and other sustainable sources.

    Their greed is limiting our options.

  35. If you thought the age of white christian land theft, colonialism, and enslavement was over, you're mistaken.

    If you thought white christians no longer destroy other people's culture, sustainability, and economy, you're mistaken.

    If you thought they were smart enough to not do it the most traceable, lazy way possible, you were mistaken.
