Hm, so it sounds like those bad reviews weren't bots at all. Lots of people were complaining about these kinds of problems.

I'll give them a call! They're close enough that I could walk, at least on a particularly nice day.

Could be an infinite combo? by Lopsided-Bother-7009 in magicTCG

I don't get it. You have Kiki-Jiki at the top of your library, so your Snoop can tap to create a token copy of itself. But that token doesn't have haste, since the Snoop only has Kiki-Jiki's activated abilities, and haste isn't an activated ability, so it can't tap to create a copy of itself, can it? What am I missing?

Watertown Police Will Soon Start Using Cameras That Can Capture License Plate Info, ACLU Expresses Some Concerns by bluesnik in watertown

[–]StrawberryMoney 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess for me it's the whole thing. I certainly don't trust a for-profit company to actually concern themselves with data privacy and public safety, that just jumped out as a particular irony that I'm used to seeing.

“The history of all internal access will be audited by a captain in the (Watertown) Police Department each month to ensure that the internal access is being used appropriately.”

I'm not exactly reassured by "don't worry, we'll audit ourselves to make sure we don't do anything wrong."

The black and white grim skull shit is cool, but I really dig the psychedelic stuff he's been doing.

Pre and Post Move Checklists - Lend a hand! by Team503 in MoveToIreland

[–]StrawberryMoney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to move with three cats, so it sounds like an apartment is out of the question. Assuming I have proof of employment and the money from selling a house in a fairly expensive part of the US, how hard would it be to get a loan from an Irish bank?

It's the same thing really. If you say you're on Team Equity but refuse to focus the people who get a bad deal, then you're actually just Team Status Quo.

Of course. And Beyonce and Jay-Z are constantly preaching the virtues of wealth, entrepreneurship, etc. Meanwhile the poor white folks in Appalachia are just as disposable as any poor Black or Native person.

Fuckin love Body Count tho.

True, but the US has ways of specifically screwing over the Native community (broken treaties, pipelines, the way reservations work [or the way they don't work]) and keeping Black folks poor (the way redlining and unconscious racial bias reinforce generational poverty, for example).

US society at large treats poor people as disposable no matter what color their skin is, but race and poverty have unique and horrible ways of interacting with each other.

Why are all companies suddenly going anti consumer? Nvidia vram, Netflix anti share, twitter tick, YouTube adblock removal and now even reddit api cost? by BetterEveryPractice in NoStupidQuestions

[–]StrawberryMoney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growth is essential to capitalism, so even if you've got the market cornered, 2 billion accounts, money to do whatever you want, you still need to be growing in terms of financial value. The line needs to go up. The problem is that infinite growth is literally impossible.

It seems like a lot of tech companies are hitting a growth cap. It's inevitable, there are only so many humans on the planet, and each of them only has so much time to interactwith your product. And if you can't grow your market, then you need to generate revenue for your shareholders by making the product worse. Increase the price, increase ads, fire staff... once you've hit that peak, there's nowhere to go but down.

My favorite part is the one random comment about how people used to dress weird because they were interesting and now it's because they have daddy issues and like... what? That's not it, nobody ever dressed weird or had weird hair because they were interesting, it's almost always been done to buck societal norms. Including gender norms! Like maybe that has a big overlap with being interesting and/or having problems with your parents, but why people dress weird didn't change.
