I get a weird AI boyfriend/girlfriend app. I honestly don’t know how Google decides what ads to serve you. I do have ad personalization turned off in every app/device I can.
A bank account with one million dollars can be completely wiped at any time. This could happen by American healthcare cost due to illness or an accident, or a lawsuit from something like a handyman slipping on your property. A billion dollars wouldn’t even feel it.
By some measures, Musk’s decisions managing Twitter/X should earn him one million lifetimes of homelessness.
I know no one personally who would remain secure after losing billions of dollars, yet I keep hearing that owners take all the risks and workers are always protected from hardship.
With all the layoffs we see, that is fucking bullshit. The workers get shafted even when they are doing a good job because of dumb fucks c-suite gambling the company on bullshit technology, or simple cutting costs for the shareholders.
Outside right-wing grifters, considering the gullibility of the right probably MLMs and those “free” hat/watch/whatever that’s not actually free and automatically adds you to a monthly subscription. Oh and don’t forget the shitty right-wing services like patriot wireless and their I’m sure equally shitty beer ultra right beer.
I’ve actually thought of opening a business that panders to conservatives but donates proceeds to progressive groups. Give it the good ol’ fashioned God Guns n Glory treatment so it’s passable as a conservative business, but donate to things like the Trevor Project and liberal lobbyist groups.
A lot of people in the third world do this because it’s not like anyone is going to check and the harmful consequences are happening in the very countries keeping them poor in the first place so it’s practically no downside for them.
Not hard to crank out product for something like that, just take today’s borderline hate slogan, slather it in red white and blue and put it up for sale.
Fun fact: That’s because the official Firefox Android app is codenamed Fennec. Fennec F-Droid is just a re-compile of the app with only the open source code, hence the name!
