‘Stop the price-gouging’: Biden hits corporations over high consumer costs
  • Well I am glad he finally said something but it's too little too late. How many more suicides were there this year in the US versus say, 2019? I'll bet those numbers have experienced inflation. All so Walmarts stock can go up by a dollar.

  • Spotify re-invented the radio
  • Spotify app sucks in the sense that they keep refining their UI to reduce the number of buttons on the bottom of the screen. When it first started they were five, then after a while there became four. I got used to where everything was, so of course with the recent update there now three so I have no freaking idea what is what.

  • What has been the biggest surprise about getting older?
  • Yup. Turning 40 next month. Was having some terrible headaches and neck pain. Low-impact cardio really helps with all of that. Also making sure you sleep well and have pillows that contour to your neck.

  • Saw a news story people about people getting arrested for at Wal-Mart for forgeting to scan one item
  • What's up I'm a employeed, tax paying, US citizen. And I would suggest that anybody take advantage of the limited oversight over the Walmart self checkouts

    These cock suckers decided that they would raise the prices on everybody under the cover of inflation. They did this knowing that it would drive people to suicide, it would drive people to be homeless, it would break part families and crush the American dream for so many people but they did it anyway.

    It's called plausible deniability... if you forget something in the self checkout, just be a nice person and say it was a mistake, and they will let you slide most of the time. Worst case scenario you have to go back in and pay. Best case scenario you get a bunch of free steak or something.

  • ‘Unconscionable’: Baby boomers are becoming homeless at a rate ‘not seen since the Great Depression’ — here’s what’s driving this terrible trend
  • Maybe I'm dumb for not lumping an entire generation of people into this huge group of bad actors who intentionally and maliciously hurt all subsequent generations.

    The issue is money. What part of "people don't have money" is so hard to digest?

    The disparity has become much much wider over the years, and that is the issue.

  • Your Fitbit is useless – unless you consent to unlawful data sharing
  • I have owned probably a dozen Fitbits over the years.

    Not coincidentally, I own a dozen dead Fitbits.

    Honestly you are better off buying the cheapest Chinese product on Amazon. Fitbits are pure fucking diarrhea in wearable form, and I eagerly await the class action lawsuit.

  • Definitely Do Not Put Plastic in the Microwave
  • I never put this kind of plastic on the microwave. But I also worry about paper plates, which have some kind of polyethylene coating that is really really hard to find any info about online. Ive fucking eaten cheese that has been boiled on a "paper" plate, only to find that those plates were coated in some kind of polymer.

    By the way, the insides of aluminum cans are coated in plastic.

    Sweet dreams!
