If the government slaps a 25% increase on the price of your imports then you expect a 25% increase on the price (assuming you’re selling imports directly - like PC parts).

It’s not rocket surgery.

Damn removing the r34 subreddit really is the end of an era.

The proactive part is when they shut your account down and report it to the cops but yeah, the cooperating with interpol by providing data that they claimed they didn’t keep is damning.

They’ve been cooperating with law enforcement and handing data to the cops proactively since 2021.

Pay attention.

Because the app store isn’t the only way to install an app. It is trivially easy to side load apps and it’s well within the technologic skillset of the average 12 year old.

They’ve set it up so it’s a legal mess. The platforms aren’t given any mechanism to actually perform verifications (no double blind id system, for example) but are legally on the hook for each and every under-16 on the platforms. A quote in the article suggests it should be the app stores verifying which is even more fucking stupid.

I mean it doesn’t seem like his sister thinks it’s satire. Poes law etc

Corn syrup is no worse for you than any other sugar.

It’s definitely added to a ton of things but that’s because people like sweet shit. The corn syrup doesn’t hurt you - the overconsumption of any refined sugars causes diabetes.

Removing corn syrup and adding white sugar is just as bad.

You’ve got a financial incentive to have someone watch 30 seconds of video - so ofc you use all the skeeziest shit straight out of the chum bucket days of the early internet.

It’s not about attention span: it’s about manipulation and money.

Not only that but this meme is not about TikTok - they don’t have votes, especially not a downvote. This is almost certainly about Reddit: the only major social media site that has downvoting.

100% - it’s obviously a company run by slack jawed morons but the original comment had assumed it was only those affected getting the email, which is a different context

Easy mistake to make - it wasn’t exactly front and center

Totally - just pointing out that implied in the first comment was those included in the email were the fired ones when that’s not the case

The stressed employees were almost certainly the high performers lmao

That email is company wide, not specific to those fired

I pay $100 for my eye exam and $150 for my glasses every couple years.

It would take 30+ years for that cost to reach the Lasik levels you paid, and that’s assuming I’m not doing anything with the $3750 remaining after the first appointment.

Unfortunately they walled garden themselves pretty universally. I’ve been on Tidal since Spotify fired all those people and have been really enjoying it.

Maybe I’m crazy but I feel like their recommended music is also way better.

This is happening because Spotify laid off half it’s staff and thought it could get away with it.
