tech companies have been anti-consumer for years now but never have i seen them commit to the complete rot of AI integrated technology despite the pushback and annoyance of the general public,
iPhone sales are down after they focus on AI instead of something people want. But Microsoft went all in on AI for Windows 11, they must be doing well—
They’re losing market share to windows 10, their own operating system that’s 9 years old.

Why I am fine with Eat the Rich:
Jeff Bezos announcing that he's marrying his next wife, Lauren Sanchez, in a lavish $600m ceremony. They live in Florida. $600m would cover 2 years of FL k-12 free lunch programs. Last year the state discontinued the office that helped schools file for free lunches.

this guy wore a mask and didn't keep his cell phone on him when he fled and as a result a police department that is itself one of the largest armed forces and intelligence agencies on planet earth is completely flummoxed
One of the NYPD brass said “this isn’t blue bloods” when explaining they can’t just immediately find the guy and I like that years of copaganda have set standards cops can’t meet and might be contributing to people’s correct perception that cops don’t effectively stop crime or find killers.

He wasn't "someone." Separating the ills of the health insurance industry (which absolutely kills a lot of people in this country every year) from the very people who run it is a big part of the problem. It creates an abstraction that favors the industry, makes no one accountable.
We can all hate insurance companies without cheering the murder of someone or worse, trying to monetize content about that murder.
Really gross day on the internet today.

Trucks have been getting bigger, more energy & space consuming, more polluting, and much deadlier to everyone around them including kids. Not because most of us actually need bigger vehicles, but as ego boosts, status symbols & “indicators of male virility.” Note the truck bed is basically the same.

Hasan Piker rightly pushes back on the idea that the Democrats simply need their own Joe Rogan, telling CNN "It's 100% a policy thing," calling for "real left-wing economic populist messaging instead of purposely avoiding that stuff because they're terrified of upsetting their corporate donors."
