I read it all and it doesn’t make sense. Garfield really doesn’t fit most of the things said, like he isn’t online all the time, isn’t ruining America, etc.

A hit piece? It’s been covered by numerous independent journalists and there is even video evidence of the crazy targets. And I know people that work for them.
I’m sorry that you have Stockholm syndrome bro, but let’s face it, you’re never going to be one of them so stop defending them.
Amazon has been known to lower prices to drive away competition and then raise prices. They’ve been shown to stock products and if that product does well they’ll make their own cheap version, undercut the original seller and when they can’t compete and the competition is gone they’ll increase the prices. They’re a predatory business at best and evil at worst. I’m happy to say I’ve not given Amazon a penny in about a decade. That’s before we even cover how they destroyed bookstores, and the shit show that is AWS.

He isn’t nice! He wants to replace all staff with robots, set targets so high that people have to piss in bottles and pays minimum wage which helps him get so rich.
A nice person would have stopped longer before getting this large. He’s a monster. Maybe not in the traditional sense, but he contributes to a monstrous system.

Well I can’t be sad that that predatory industry took a hit. Thanks for letting me know who they were. Seems betting has gotten crazy in America when I thought it wasn’t a thing outside of certain places like Atlantic city or Vegas.

- Comment on Why would I buy this? 4 days ago:
I had an intermediary of Minecraft and really gravitated towards the automation, I then saw Factorio on YouTube and was like damn this looks sick. I’m a software developer so it tracks that I like to solve problems.
Recently downloaded Satisfactory though to give that a try.
- Comment on Why would I buy this? 4 days ago:
Bro the CoD ship sailed years ago. They just don’t innovate and release the same shit year after year. But something else. I’d recommend Factorio.

Which is random? I’ve only not heard of three: Instructure, fanduel, and chime.
All the ones I’ve heard of are quite massive companies and I would assume the others are too.

I guess I’m naive and believe people would be honest.
- Comment on Apparently Palantir can access the content of social media accounts that were deleted a decade ago. 4 days ago:
As a software engineer I was a little shocked when I learned our company treats “Delete” buttons as a means to toggle Archived = 1 in the DB. Nothing is actually deleted. Sure we will anonymise the data after a certain time to be GDPR compliant but it would be trivial I guess to actually link that back to people.

Ok. Perhaps don’t make statements that are not known to be true then.
- Comment on So, did a new printer drop? LOL 1 week ago:
I just watched one of these four videos and they were happy to point out the positives and negatives of the printer.
Am I to believe I was incredibly lucky choosing that one?
- Comment on So, did a new printer drop? LOL 1 week ago:
I’m not sure what you’re getting at?
Company has a launch time for new products. YouTubers make videos about products, where they’re free to criticise those products. They have sponsors from different companies to support that video.
Are you claiming it sinister because they’re given a time when the product can be show so it’s fair to all creators?

- Comment on Will UK taxpayers get their £122m back from PPE Medpro? 2 weeks ago:
The gowns were rejected on inspection in September 2020 at the NHS warehousing facilities in Daventry, Northamptonshire, because their labels were invalid, and also signalled that they had not been certified as sterile, a life-protecting requirement. Cockerill ordered that the £122m be repaid by 15 October.
Literally in the article of this thread dude. You seemingly want to shill for a shady company that shook down the government through their own connections, but reading the damn article is a stretch too far.
- Comment on Will UK taxpayers get their £122m back from PPE Medpro? 2 weeks ago:
To my understanding they were promptly told the delivery was not fit for purpose and asked the money be paid back. That money was not paid back and now they claim the company doesn’t have the money.
What would you call that if not fraud? They knowingly spent money that should have been returned. Sure we could agree that the fraud isn’t the fact the equipment wasn’t fit for purpose but then not returning the money is either fraud or theft, both of which can have custodial sentences. I’ve seen people arrested for stealing sandwiches.
- Comment on Will UK taxpayers get their £122m back from PPE Medpro? 2 weeks ago:
Well perhaps we give them a choice. Pay the money back or take the remainder of their life in prison for fraud and refusing to give back the proceeds of crime.
- Comment on Tony Blair and Nick Clegg hosted dinner giving tech bosses access to UK minister 2 weeks ago:
Nah that’s Tony Blair. The death of the Labour Party, pulled us in to illegal war in Iraq and faced no consequences and now has come back to… checks notes… sell the NHS data to Larry Ellison or Oracle and facilitate the Gaza ceasefire (read stop Israel killing babies). Even Hamas have come out and said nah bro we don’t want Tony Blair.

- Comment on It's official: EA is going private. 3 weeks ago:
Yup I added an edit. LBOs should be illegal man. Just search how many companies have been bought like this and then driven out of business.
- Comment on It's official: EA is going private. 3 weeks ago:
Depends. This is a leveraged buyout and there are countless examples of other companies bought like this and they don’t last long.
They take on massive debt to buy it. Then they shift that debt to the company they bought and away from the individuals. Then that company is crippled paying down interest so they can’t innovate (not that EA did), then they’ll have to cut costs and the product will diminish. Likely pay out billions in dividends to the buyers can make profit and in 5-10 years EA will go bust or get sold again.
The banks will be left holding the bag, but probably covered their loses by that time so can write off the rest of the debt.
- Comment on It's official: EA is going private. 3 weeks ago:
Yup. Or Toys R Us, or Debenhams (UK), or any other number of LBOs which led to the death of the company.
