It’s too late, the landleeches have already taken over. Any city remotely worth living in is too expensive to live in, and will remain that way until we eliminate the landleech class.

Ooh, I’ll have to remember them in the unlikely event that I ever have money. I want nothing more than a 80s F150 retrofit to be all electric.
We’re currently rhyming with history from less than 100 years ago (the rise of fascism), I don’t think having a warning is enough to prevent it from happening again.
Humans are just one of the many influences on Earth’s climate
Proceeds to list a bunch of other things that are the fault of humans.
Have you heard about Rocket money? If you’re so bad with money that you don’t know where it all goes, rocket money will help you with that (in exchange for money)! It must be good, a bunch of YouTubers and podcasters are paid to recommend it!
please don’t take this as a sincere recommendation, I hate that it exists
Do you see an alternative? Each year more companies move to a subscription model, even when it doesn’t make the slightest bit of sense. In many cases if you have the time to do proper research and/or a lot of technical savvy, you can find alternatives from companies no one recognizes. Most people don’t have the time or know-how, and the companies that like subscription models are spending billions making sure their names are the only ones people think exist.
The majority of others aren’t. The technology also isn’t exclusive to Google, or won’t be for long. Forget placing drugs on a person to have an excuse to arrest them, there will be photographic evidence, completely fake, of anyone counter to the system doing whatever crime they want to pin on us.
The whole point of the Settings “app” is to remove the user’s ability to do anything on their own computer. The old (and far more functional) UI of the Control Panel won’t get updated because Microsoft wants users to get scared when the unpretty UI appears.
Wouldn’t even need AI, a coin flip would do just as well.
Bet if we bury him in a spacesuit and a chrome coffin he wouldn’t know the difference.
I want to live in the world where the F&F franchise never stopped doing practical effects, and actually launched a car into space.
That assumes success under capitalism is possible for people with morals in the first place. Maybe once upon a time, but I’m firmly of the opinion that it is impossible to be financially successful and be a good person.
Of course not, that would make the justice system a little more fair.
Nationalize Google search circa 2008 (or whenever it actually was good pre-SEO), kill off everything else.
I always used to jump models, going back all the way to the first Nexus. This’ll be the first time I don’t. Unfortunately I know the Pixel 7 I have now will have its battery life mysteriously go to shit about three months before it’s paid off.
If there’s one thing that united the Internet, it’s don’t fuck with our porn. It’s how Tumbler died, pornhub lost over 95% of their videos, and it’ll put the final nail in reddit if they try it.
I had a flat tire at midnight once. Tried for about an hour to change it myself before calling a tow truck company that said it was open. Got routed to a call center who said they had to contact one of their freelance trucks, after paying $250 over the phone. A little more back and forth and about 90 minutes later (when they said it’d be 30 minutes), no truck ever appeared. The call center (third rep that night) called and said the one person they had working tonight broke down outside of cell service, can they come out in the morning? I said that won’t work, I’ll just cancel and get a refund. They said it’d take 3-4 business days to get the refund and there’d be a $50 refund processing charge.
I didn’t quite blow up at them, but any time I have to stand up for myself I get shaky and struggle to keep the anger out of my voice. I explained (several times) that there was no way that was acceptable and that I would like to speak to their manager. “I spoke to my manager and there’s nothing we can do, that’s just the cost of processing a refund.” Well I paid for services that I didn’t receive, due to no fault of my own. Let me speak to your manager. Another hold. “My manager is willing to pay the refund himself this one time.” Yeah ok sure thanks bye.
20 minutes later my tire was changed by a different tow truck company who had a real employee answer before the second ring, had multiple trucks on duty, didn’t even ask for payment until after the work was done, and it was about $80. I fully expected to have to issue a chargeback for the first company’s charge but fortunately it never showed up on my card statement.
Rich people don’t think these things consciously. The wealthy don’t think, “How can I best ensure the worker class remains oppressed?” They simply act selfishly, and their actions together with the actions of other selfish people lead naturally to oppression.
Until they get wealthy enough to buy politicians, at which point it does consciously become “How can I best ensure the worker class remains oppressed?”
stop ‘non-essential’ work
So those jobs they’re cutting start with everyone with “Chief” in their title, right?
The rich are actively trying to be yote into space. All we’re saying is redirect their rockets to ensure they don’t come home again.
