Revisionist history. We were not living in harmony.
The Dreamcast lovers cried into their Shen Mue.
Game Cube fans quietly played Smash bros.
PC Master Race was still arguing about sound cards and telling Gabe to fuck off with this Steam Always On Bullshit.
For most of the gaming industry, you were either PS or Xbox. There was no unity.
I mean are you even living in a capitalist hellhole if your government didn't murder a bunch of brown people?
It's not branding?
Like Vermont doesn't have a local curry
Fuck dropbox. Dropbox uses your data for AI training.
They had some backlash so now it's a toggle depending on your account.
Cancelled them immediately because I originally was using Dropbox to store personal information like tax and backup passwords. And now I know they can/will fuck you over for profit.
You can say RETARDED.
Let's not sugar coat what this fucker said.
We could be driving electric cars and having solar panels everywhere.
We could be having the fastest wifi network.
We could have high speed trains.
Medical advances as well. I don't even want to go into the vaccine territory.
All of those things were considered problematic by the old guard, who conservatives supported. One side continues to protect the yacht owning class. Conservatives would still be fighting marijuana if the rest of the population didn't tell them to fuck off.
And if you think this is all wishy-washy speculation, get the fuck out of America for a minute and look around the rest of the world. American cities are no where near other international cities in terms of living, quality, tech, support. You have to be dumb as fuck to not recognize how often Conservatives vote against tech initiatives to line their own pockets.
That's technology in a nutshell. We moved off of one platform to join another.
If we didn't, we'd still be sending each other messages on AOL and join chatrooms to have discussions.
Well obviously Obama did this, and Hunter Biden.
Religion makes some BIG BUCKS so they invest in things like universities and hospitals.
A lot of historical institutions have religious backing.
I'm not saying I support it. I just follow the money. (Tinfoil hat)
For drivers, the results are unpredictable and too often unfair. Data obtained by the Star shows Uber Eats’ platform can offer two food couriers different wages for the exact same trip.
Labour advocates charge that the app collects data on driver behaviour and can use it to decide who it can pay at a lower rate, allowing the company to pocket the difference and boost its revenue. This concept is widely referred to as algorithmic wage discrimination.

The drama:
Some indian company made a "Anonymous survey" asking about a employee's stress level.
Then they fired all employees who had a certain rating, even though it was "anonymous".

Them: I speak English.
Me: oh okay. :-(
