They won't notice, as fines are already in the cost projections.

If you do something illegal, and the result is a fixed fine, it's only "illegal" for poor people. Rich people dgaf if they have to pay fine/ticket.

This is exactly what capitalism is: someone who's idle makes more money than the actual workers. Fuck capitalism!!!

Spotify is raising the cost of Premium subscriptions, again (www.engadget.com)

Spotify is officially raising its Premium subscription rates in the US come July, following reports of the move in April. The platform is increasing its Individual plan from $11 to $12 monthly and its Duo plan from $15 to $17 monthly — the same jump as last year's $1 and $2 price hikes, respectively. However, its Family plan...

USENET. Thank me later

My kids are complaining about stomach cramps, but that's because they ate too much pizza. Kids. They'll be fine in the morning.

My washing machine has AI integrated. No joke. It says so on the sticker. What does it do? Analyze the weight of the load to determine the amount of time needed to wash, based on the selected cycle.

AI... Piss off, Samsung! And it'll never get connected online.

The ugly truth behind ChatGPT: AI is guzzling resources at planet-eating rates (www.theguardian.com)

Despite its name, the infrastructure used by the “cloud” accounts for more global greenhouse emissions than commercial flights. In 2018, for instance, the 5bn YouTube hits for the viral song Despacito used the same amount of energy it would take to heat 40,000 US homes annually....

I, too, pledge to be carbon neutral by 2030.

If I cannot meet the criteria, I'll just move the deadline. Easy peasy, squeeze the world out of resources lemon squeezy.

I've never heard about the overpopulation myth is tied to fascism. Got any more information or sources on this? Cheers, bud.

So can we. It's easy to pull it off. Gotta remember to find solutions, not problems.

In Amazon c-suite, they just call it slavery. But you know, that's "illegal", hence; "sub".

I rally enjoyed Fallout! I didn't see any ads. Might be because I won't give my money directly to Amazon.

All the ways streaming services are aggravating their subscribers this week (arstechnica.com)

Below is a look at the most exasperating news from streaming services from this week. The scale of this article demonstrates how fast and frequently disappointing streaming news arises. Coincidentally, as we wrote this article, another price hike was announced....

USENET, Sonarr and Radarr. It's a godsend

It's the cost of doing business. Hell, if I could rob a bank for 10 million dollars, and the fine was a million dollars (or 9 million), I'd probably do it too!

If the cost for breaking the law is a set amount, it technically only affects poor people. There's a rich guy in Bergen, Norway who received more than 50 parking fines in less than a year, because for him, the fine is the parking cost. It would be like I'd pay 1 cent for parking wherever I want. I wish the government would be able to take away his driver's license for this. He's also blocked trans from being able to continue their drive. Fucking asshole.
