CEO Pay Has Risen 1,085% Since 1978, But for Workers? Just 24%
  • Billionaires and (soon to be) trillionaires shouldn't exist, the fact they do is disgusting. That level of wealth is incomprehensible to me.

    Millionaires make more than 65x the average part-time salary in the UK, and 21x more than the full-time average. That alone was a ridiculous display of greed.

    We need to start heavily taxing the wealthy. Start doing it based on percentage different compared to the national minimum after a certain threshold.

  • False reports of explosives found in car near Trump rally spread online.
  • Think you've forgotten GOP hired Cambridge Analytica, who's sole job was to pursued the 'impressionables'.

    This is a party whose voter base love playing victim, and never considers if something is fake. They're constantly being bombarded by racicalized clickbate headlines because they swollow it up, especially when it matches their beliefs. It's like they're in a constant pressure cooker.

    Look how fast the pet-eating thing with Springfield went.

  • Generative AI is reportedly tripling carbon dioxide emissions from data centers
  • Ita also trivial to come to the same conclusion at a smaller scale.

    You can run a LLM at home and see the amount of GPU & power resources it takes to compute the larger models. If I ran that full time, your household bill will most likely be 3x alone.

  • BMW Adaptive Suspension Can Be Added via Subscription. Suspension As A Service (SAAS)
  • The key differences is utilities you're paying for the generation & maintenance of key resources - without gas, water and electricity we wouldn't be able to survive. Road tax you're helping to pay for the renewal and upkeep of the road surface (among other local services)... Left alone the road will degrade & will become unusable.

    Suspension as a Service is milking what should be a perpetual cost when purchasing the vehicle. If the hardware is already installed, it should be available for the owner to use. They're not paying for the upkeep of the vehicle, or even ensuring the suspension remains functional... All they've done is placed the function behind a pay wall. They can argue they're maintaining the software, but it's utter bullshit and I hate the fact this has become a norm within B2B (for example network appliances)

    At least with luxury subscriptions such as Spotify, Netflix, NYT, etc you're getting access to their content, which they renew. Here you get access to something you should have had access to from day 1.

  • Anne Coulter attacks Kamala Harris’s racial identity as not ‘foundational Black’
  • Because since 2016 they've learnt there is zero consequences for such actions. In fact, even when there is bad publicity, their fan base is more like a cult following and supports them more.

    All the social media engineering they did REALLY dug deep with the impressionables.

  • Best Privacy DDOS Blocking?
  • It wouldn't stop against volumetric attacks...

    They'd still fully consume the WAN bearer regardless of Crowdsec protecting the endpoint. For that you need a scrubbing centre to dump the traffic onto.
