Corps figured out sustained income was better than marketing and making products. All they had to do was take away every digital product and turn it into a subscription.

Then they’ll buy each other up until they are an effective monopoly and raise prices forever.

I don’t see a way out of this for products already captured if you need them.

Oh god. If I hear myself through people’s speakers when on a call I cannot continue. It’s super effective at making me confused and distracted. That’s awful.

It was three or four months. Because I was doing a play in London and every night there was paparazzi outside. And I suddenly realized after like after I just had just been lazy and not changed my clothes for a few days, that they were not there. And I realized it’s probably because I’m wearing the same thing so it all looks like photos from the same day. So I was like ‘I’ll just continue wearing this.’ And they never came back because it all looks like the same picture in front of the same door.

It was pretty genius. No one wants to see 50 pics of the same person looking exactly the same.

I’m getting Pixel 8a ads and I usually trade-in my older a if I start having problems or the new one has a feature. 8a finally has wireless charging (7 mightve, was too soon) but it has this bullshit now. Damnit.

Yeah it’s very effective. It has a big downside of people losing the pegs and then those addresses are “lost” but all that means is that 2 users can’t reliably connect and when they report to IT they will be asked if they had the correct peg. And I guess quarterly do a review for unused addresses that have pegs out and create new ones for lost pegs.
