You don’t generally want to live much past 80. It just gets worse and worse.

Almost every one of these places (that’s truly worth it) will have a way to pay without tech. They still want your money. Hell, ask the guy behind you on line, they’d probably take the credit card points.

As I’ve made more money in life, I pirate the same amount of stuff, basically (besides games). But I also spend a shitload of money on the stuff I like. Instead of paying Netflix or Spotify, I buy DVD/BD box sets, collector’s editions, vinyl, bandcamp my favorite albums, and way too many concert tickets. Avoid the middleman and support the creator.

kind of weird they waited to charge him with it too. you would think they’d overcharge at first and then negotiate down once the lawyers get involved. he also didn’t get bailed out all weekend. hopefully they didn’t rough him up and keep him away from cameras.

Ah Florida, the scammer state. Can’t pay for teachers but we got gun drones in schools.

The major news outlets ran interference on a literal genocide for years now. I don’t think AI will change much besides making the rubes rube harder.

Thank god they have their metaverse investments to fall back on. And their NFTs. And their crypto. What do you mean the tech industry has been nothing but scams for a decade?

Undergrad psych degree is pretty popular with social workers.

They recently added support for that, i believe. (Edit- starting off where you left it)

The pressure campaign worked and TikTok has been neutered ever since.

Unfortunately, you know this isn’t that, and they’re just going to grift all the way down

What is even the point of a stable coin like this. It’s literally pegged to the dollar. It’s a worthless exercise from a worthless state

TikTok shop also sells glock switches (to make them automatic pistols), galaxy gas/nitrous tanks and god knows what else.

What’s the average socioeconomic status of your friend group? Most people have tablets now because they can “get them free” from the phone company.

Waymo 😩

Crazy we have that too and we’re still losing

I don’t even think most people own a PC at this point, just tablets and phones.

I’m glad I played cyberpunk 2077 bc this is playing out exactly like a cyberpunk dystopia

Firms like Blackwater usually start as private VIP security. Gotta build that rep.

99% of the general public will not pirate anything because they lack the ability to do so. Of the 1% left, 99% of them use public trackers with variable results regarding quality and shady website shenanigans. The most common form of piracy going forward will probably be like those hacked fire sticks that would stream pirated content, because it’s easy and low barrier, like the hacked cable box cards/chips from the 90s.
