candyman337,

I stopped watching after he aided in the platforming of Ben Shapiro and said the glass ceiling didn’t exist. That and the n word scandal.

candyman337,

This reminds of pbf’s work

As someone who is in Louisiana, a.majority of the population here does not want this shit, gerrymandering here means that the politicians don’t actually represent the population.

The difference is they don’t control it, it’s public, can’t really sell data that’s public. They also can’t shake the platforms into for profit hellscapes like YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, etc.

Big tech has been controlling the Internet for too long and it’s time it stopped.

candyman337,

Heh

candyman337,

Immich is a really good self hosted option

candyman337,

Color nobody surprised lmao. This was so clearly a cash grab from the beginning. They’re probably gonna get away with it too.

I once submitted an issue to a devs GitHub. The apps login page would not load without large bg pictures loading first. I asked if he could add an option to disable it in the settings, as my self hosted site was slow.

I essentially got back, “why would I do that? It’s not an issue for me! Besides the login page should load before the background picture” issue closed

😑😑😑😑

It’s like you’re SO CLOSE to seeing the issue.

NO CUM

Wild that these comments are excusing a nuke being dropped on a civilian area, that was an atrocity and nothing less.

Part of the enjoyment of a meme is the way it looks, poorly made Photoshop memes are funnier in sometimes

candyman337,

Yeah but in most of America they can just fire you for any reason without severance, and you lose healthcare.

candyman337,

Yes I agree. I hate it here. This exact thing happened to me. I can’t pay rent next month if I don’t find a job. I have a cut in my nose that gives me splitting headaches and I had to cancel my appt with my ENT because I don’t have health insurance or an income.

candyman337,

This dude needs to stop getting coverage, the fact that he’s allowed to run for president is an affront to democracy.

candyman337,

It’s only a matter of time before this leaks into all AAA games, I hate capitalism.

candyman337,

You’re not understanding what I’m saying. This is them testing the waters. All companies that are publicly traded will continue to do whatever they can to make a profit. Consumer be damned. I don’t buy AAA games, but it doesn’t change the fact that changes like this will propagate across the gaming industry and make it worse as a whole. The issue here is them trying to turn a profit for shareholders no matter what. So many of these companies are prioritizing making a profit why they happen to release games and not vice versa. That is a result of the last stage unregulated capitalism we have in America and those same tendencies that they’ve propagated to the global economy.

Don’t be so naive to say “just don’t buy it bro.” I won’t. It doesn’t really affect me that much RIGHT NOW. But it might, the more they’re legally allowed to and the more they get away with the more everyone will do it. It happened with DLC’s, then releasing unfinished games, in game purchase in games you have to buy, etc. God forbid I don’t want the entirety of AAA gaming to be a pile of shit. It’s time for lawmakers to step in in this industry and most others and put limits on what type of things companies can do to make a profit. And this goddamn law that companies must do everything they can to turn a profit for their shareholders must be done away with.

candyman337,

My point is this is a larger problem of capitalism and just supporting companies that don’t do this doesn’t always work. The gaming industry is getting worse, and there will be less and less devs that actually don’t do this. And there will be less and less devs that are fiscally able to not do this. I have seen it happen time and time again.

Bankrupt Steward Health puts its hospitals up for sale, discloses $9 bln in debt (www.reuters.com)

Bankrupt Steward Health Care has put all of its 31 U.S. hospitals up for sale, hoping to finalize transactions by the end of the summer to address its $9 billion in total liabilities, its attorneys said at a Tuesday court hearing in Houston....

candyman337,

candyman337,

candyman337,

candyman337,

I tried saying that on the thread about mastodon announcing they were making a non profit and I got mass down voted

candyman337,

I mean Lemmy thread lol, like a comment thread

candyman337,

PERHAPS BECAUSE ““THE ECONOMY””" DOESN’T REPRESENT THE COST OF THINGS ANYMORE

candyman337, (edited )

I live in a “right to work” state, there are no required unemployment benefits. I got one paycheck as severance and everyone I told within the state said, " well at least it’s not nothing"
