  • Three last ones were:

    Some blatant ripoff of Silence of the Lambs/ generic serial killer movie with Martin Lawrence and John Malkovich. Got 30 mins in and they may as well have used the same sets as SotL because somehow serial killers get the largest cells in the world so they can paint and look at files for murder cases and make phone calls to detectives just before they go to the execution chamber. - Mindcage

    The last Die hard move, Barely mentally there Bruce Willis destroying moscow during a car chase just so he can yell at his son. - A good Day to Die Hard

    Some Garbage Marky Mark movie set in Boston where he was a private eye or something, we got 30 mins in and it was so bad we guessed how obvious they were being and how bad it was going to be and skipped to the end to see if we were right. (we were) - Spenser Confidential












  • I’m leaving my management job in the city next month to move north 6 hours away and live in a small town with a mortgage that will be half as much for an acre instead of a townhouse with no grass. I wrote a proposal to do a order entry job for less money but work from home but my boss wants everyone in order entry to work in the office. So they chose to lose 9 years of company and product knowledge because they don’t want me to work from home in case people who have been there less time might want to work from home too.






  • Enshittification

    First, they make a service good for the customer even at a loss so customers don’t want to go other places. ✅

    Second, they use the information gathered from you to sell to companies to make money off you. In Amazon’s case they are now so big they don’t need to sell your info but they do it anyways. ✅

    Third, they screw the companies and the users to make the money all for themselves. In Amazon’s case they fuck sellers by making Amazon branded copies of best selling items to cut their third party stores out of business by putting their copies first in the search results.✅

    Read Cory Doctorow’s books about enshittification.(also read his fiction, Little Brother, for a great fast paced dystopian terrorist novel.
