But also Rolexes don’t have subscription fees
Forever mouse
Oh nice, a mouse I pay for once and will keep using forever?
I pay once?
Like them or hate them, furries are a keystone species
I honestly have no problem with making everything go through USB C instead of a bunch of different ports, it’s the number of ports that’s the issue
Just give me 9 USB C ports and we’re good
Also I’ll be honest at a fundamental level I don’t think companies should be allowed to block paid accounts without a warning and refund, regardless of the offense
Like even if they were doing actual crimes, like planning a murder over Skype or something, if you have a paid subscription they should be required to give you at least a few days to get your shit and a refund. Eviction rules.
See also: COVID. There needs to be a systematic hunt for those who pushed pro-COVID policies. For those at the highest levels, they should be fucking hanged. But also managers who encouraged staff to work sick should be heavily fined and banned from ever being a manager again. Anyone who pushed for ending their companies masking or work from home policies, barred from anything but the most simple menial labor.
A moral society would, once the genocide is finally stopped, investigate every company and organization that did shit like this and punish those responsible.
Whatever manager approved this should be facing charges. Anyone who called the cops on protestors. University staff who retaliated against anti-genocide staff and students. All of those people should be facing charges of helping facilitate genocide.
Open… the country. Stop… having it be closed.

Sounds like. Probably PowerPoints and emails and shit like that
It’s not so much “anyone off the street could do a competent job running a national company” as much as “the average CEO is no better at doing a competent job running a national company than a random person off the street, and are often actively worse than random”
It’s the same as Congress. Our current system actively selects for people who are bad at the job, so in comparison to that a random lottery would be an improvement.
I’d said for years that you could replace most CEOs with a random number generator and just save a lot of money with no downsides, and this is just a slightly better version of that so I feel vindicated
In 90+% of companies the CEO is an active liability who is unlikely to do anything but harm, while being a massive expense to keep on payroll. If any company tried to actually maximize profits step 1 would be firing your CEO or changing their pay to be the minimum entry level you pay your employees, because it’s universally the job with the lowest requirements in a company. If there is one job in any company that you could pick any person of the street and they’d do as good if not better than who you currently have it’s CEO. The only reason this doesn’t happen is because the fox is guarding the hen house, and obviously CEOs aren’t going to decide to eliminate their own positions.
Fuck I’m gonna be thinking about this one for a while
Can this be a new site tagline
If back to the future was made today it 100% would be a Cybertruck, the Delorean occupied the same cultural space of “That weird looking piece of shit car”
