They replaced the CEO last week from the original founder. I'm not hopeful it isn't all just a big cash grab that made a bunch of board members rich. Capitalism is ruining everything.

I've never order a mixed drink in my life. Got some flasks in college and will still take that and have a soda instead. With beers being $7 minimum I'm also starting to just slam a >9% IPA before going in and having water.
I'm honestly wondering if I can start a business "de-smarting" things. I had this idea a couple years ago when I was hardware disabling the microphone in my Comcast remote. I think the average consumer is realizing how much they are being tracked and do not like it. Enough that they would pay for solutions. The VPN market is massive.
Try happymaxxing and go play video games outside. We have the technology.
I love the feeling of melancholy, I don't know why. Accepting it feels kind of powerful. I have a huge thing for movies with melancholic endings.
My dedicated AI machine uses 1866mhz DDR3. Consumers don't know what they need and will buy whatever the latest new thing is. Smart phones are so dumb. Like wow, your brand new $2500 phone has a benchmark 4x faster than my refurbished $250 phone. Now tell me what you do with all that power. "...well I save 27ms per Instagram post which adds up with how much I use it". I want to run headfirst into a brick wall.
I wonder what it feels like to lay down naked on this thing and have it spin you around.
AI won't take MY job, I'm safe. And I'm gonna go cry.
9v batteries are actually 6x AAAA batteries in a little case.
Epic Games bought Bandcamp in March 2022 for $273 million
[Bandcamp co-founder Ethan] Diamond was not aware of Epic’s plan to sell Bandcamp to Songtradr until as soon as the night before the deal was announced.
During the weeks that followed, Bandcamp’s union, which represented about half of the company at the time, called on Songtradr to voluntarily recognize the union while it also negotiated with Epic over how the layoffs to union members would be handled. For example, the game publisher said that no employee who received an offer from Songtradr would remain eligible for Epic’s severance package.
The two companies agreed to an “asset sale” of Bandcamp rather than a “stock sale.” This meant that Songtradr was only acquiring the technology and platform, rather than the company as a whole, including its staff.
“Of those laid off, 40 were in the union bargaining unit out of a total 67 members,” it wrote. “None of the eight (8) democratically elected bargaining team members received a job offer..."
Nice try, propaganda bot.
