Flushable wipes are not flushable! These companies should pay to remove them, it was completely false advertising

They know taxpayers will foot the bill and they will make astronomical amounts of money off it. Plus they get a stranglehold on energy.

Tech companies aren't going to buy power plants and enshitify them. Allowing the tech giants at the table at all is far passed enshitification of democracy (and your tax dollars). Governments should have built the energy using the people's money, and profited off businesses using extreme amounts of it (bringing a lot of dollars back). Instead they'll use the corporate money to build energy, and profiting off the people who need to pay the corporation

Subsidies are important. You pay enough tax dollars that some of those should be used to help the country be stronger economically. You don't want all farmers to disappear from the US because China can make food with slaves for waaaay cheaper.

The problem is theyre laughing at you helping their friends with that money, and calling it capitalism. It's socialism for corporations using the people's money really

Basically what happened with meme stonks too. The rich want to keep people from playing their game..

Not just that, but it's so they can profit from even more taxpayer subsidies. That's why theyre trying to convince us it's all for humanity.

Imagine if we had 10s of billions a year to drag all these companies and governments into long court battles for OUR rights. Corporations should be second.

Because it was a pandemic fueled rush. Everyone thought gaming was the best bet because we're all at home. Companies like meta, Microsoft etc.. grew astronomically on tax payer subsidies making it even better money. Other companies tried to invest or spin up game divisions.

Now the party is over, it doesn't even matter if these games are good or have potential. They put the sunk cost in the "pandemic's fault" spreadsheet, and take all the liabilities and costs from the expense spreadsheet. It looks fantastic on paper to investors, the real numbers dont really matter.

Same here (15 years). I work in all sorts of frameworks and languages. I normally would have just googled a given question to see the code i need, paste it in with everything that's wrong, and fix it to my liking. I know what I'm doing I was just missing the specific words i havent used in a couple years, i still understand them. Copilot just avoid me opening google, clicking through some bad SEO, passing the bad answers, and doing that a couple more times to bring in everything I need. It's a google formatter.

It's also exactly like searching google. If you ask "is this cancer" you'll find cases where it's cancer, if you ask "is this not cancer" youll find cases where it's cancer. You can't trust it in that way, but you can still quickly parse the internet. I make juniors explain their code so even if they paste it in, they're kind force to research it more to make sure they get it; it's on the reviewers now to train llm kiddos.
