listen, you paid what you thought it was worth to you
that's how retail works
they buy product, then sell them at a markup
you buy products from them only if you think it's worth the price they're asking
you get the product, they get the money

charity shops aren't for those who "need" the products, their sole purpose is to generate funds for the charity. have you lost your mind?

Google's call-scanning AI could dial up censorship by default, privacy experts warn (techcrunch.com)

A feature Google demoed at its I/O confab yesterday, using its generative AI technology to scan voice calls in real time for conversational patterns associated with financial scams, has sent a collective shiver down the spines of privacy and security experts who are warning the feature represents the thin end of the wedge.

sure, and the worth of "better" is determined by a company at any given time. any market, including the job market, is what people are willing to pay, and willing to let go of.

Some suspect Dell's suddenly stringent office policy is an attempt to force people to quit so that the company can avoid layoffs. In 2023, Dell laid off 13,000 people, per regulatory filings [PDF].

The issue with renting is, of course, just like apartments (or flats if you will), the producers of the items will see the opportunity to inflate the retail costs of the items, the more they see their sales dip due to renting, which will make the price of renting the equipment greater .... and so it goes

Has anyone here noticed how reddit has gotten more racist against Indians in the last few months (lemmy.world)

It's something I've seen slowly starting to emerge over the course of the last year or so. Maybe even longer. There's accounts that post stories to designed to shock people into thinking India is a terrible place. Like I get it. India does have issues. And it does have issues with sexual violence as well. But its a shame those...

Indians? lol, try being Jewish in support of Israels right to exist.

The Fediverse is the same sewer of racism, and xenophobia, with more of a concentration of Islamic Terrorist Supporters, Tankies, Anarchists, and bleeding heart Leftists than other online spaces.

Google creates the SEO algorithm which is their secondary product, which enabled them sell their primary product which is advertising

Other companies seek to take advantage of SEO optimization to drive traffic to their site for content, both useful and garbage, which again is their secondary product, as their first product is advertising

Everyone is trying to game the system to bring in the most eyeballs so they can sell advertising to others

I keep reading about this supposed VPN breakage, but haven't read a single comment where a Windows users has had their VPN connections break, nor a listing of the VPN clients/protocols that are supposedly affected by this security update, which is curious now several days out from this "news" coming to the surface.

Facebook is evil. This has been shown in any number of countless ways in the past decade. If you advertise on Facebook and therefore look to monetize that evil to your benefit, I hope you get screwed with your pants on.

It's not that Musk ever thought Tesla could design "better" components, it's that Musk knew Tesla could design proprietary components, and in there lies the grift.

    Firstly to all the members of the peanut gallery, Linux sucks donkey cock.

    Now with that out of the way, secondly, Windows 11 has noticeable lag just before os, and security updates, which is a drag.

    Lastly, it WAS snappier out of the box on release, but after subsequent updates, and inserts like every new fangled version of teams, edge, and now copilot, they're starting to swamp the OS, and that's gonna be disastrous in the long term.
