We are gathered here today to honor the memory of Remember_the_tooth, who unfortunately committed suicide by shooting themselves 3 times in the back of the head and falling out a locked window.

After a sudden spike in their car insurance, healthcare, and home owners insurance rates.

Dynamic pricing is already here. If you don’t have the app on your phone dinner costs 25% more than for the tracked.

Agreed, and also I believe we should be calling it "price discrimination." That's what companies call it when they're subjected to it by other parties. I feel like "dynamic pricing" is the euphemism they created to make it acceptable to apply to individual consumers.

We'll never know why they did it. I guess depression can sneak up on the best of us 😔
