TheMostFrench posted:It reads like someone dying while trying to explain what has happened. I wonder if that was done intentionally as a joke or because they had to label the thing per management rules. When a friend of mine worked at a circle K he mentioned that the thing they actually inventory for the soda machines was the cups, so every cup had to be accounted for with either a receipt or recorded as damaged (which conveniently happened whenever we stopped by for some reason  ) Like I can imagine them having to enter the thing into the cash register so their boss didn't yell at them, while holding a cup full of wasp and trying to serve 8 other people in line, mashing "WASP CUP WASP CUP WASPPAPSHCUP WASPCUP" and then having the register be all "well is it for water? no? then what is it for? wasp? ok" and finally letting them close it out with that

I think that's just probably fun with label maker, possibly encouraged by draconian cup-inventory requirements. Thanks for shedding light on this, waxp. Thanxsp.

at my company we sell a security/visitor registration system that won't let you complete the process until it's taken your temperature and metered out a pump of hand sanitizer from a connected dispenser

Peloton is doing a recall because their treadmills kill kidsrepiv posted:https://twitter.com/jbillinson/status/1389952020602408960 Edit: also worth noting is they originally said "no we don't need to do a recall" and then went back on that to issue a recall

First it smashes the kid's face in, then it eats him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi0FLtu82Ng This video shows that the Tread is hungry for exercise balls as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-fRP3U-nFA&t=41s The design of the treadmill is insane, as treadmills go. There is no rear or bottom guard for the belt, so anything that touches the back end while it's in use gets dragged under and flung toward the front motor housing. It's extremely unsafe and totally insane, but also great because someone had to spend $2,500 on the child murdering monstrosity in the first place and there should be punishments for things like that. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Plastik posted:First it smashes the kid's face in, then it eats him. It's more like $5000 for the deluxe model with the slats that's extra good at child murdering. Also in one video the motor outright stalls, and when they clear the jam it just keeps going, which means it's not doing even basic "have I stopped moving" safety checks lmao

I desperately want to vandalize the speakers of every gas pump that shows me ads. Never will, cause i imagine there's plenty of cameras and my plate # is on my car, but i fantasize about it for the full 17 gallons of flow time when i hear Maria Menounos welcome me to Gas Station TV

StrugglingHoneybun posted:I desperately want to vandalize the speakers of every gas pump that shows me ads. They've presumably improved since 2010, but back when I played gas jockey both gas stations had two grainy black and white cameras that looked out over the parking lot. They read exactly zero letters on a license plate. Speedway transitioned to prepay only because of the drive offs Bellstores refused to go that route and instead they had binoculars and you had to write every license plate down that didn't prepay. If they didn't have a license plate to write down you weren't allowed to get on the loudspeaker and say they had to prepay. That would get you a stern talking to from the corporate office. They wanted you to ignore the person until they got mad enough to come inside and ask why you weren't starting the pump.

CloFan posted:You can push one of the buttons to mute those fyi they’ve disabled this feature at the two gas stations I usually go to. to elaborate: there’s no labeling on the buttons to show that a mute function existed. someone independently hand-wrote “mute” in sharpie next to the button that muted the videos at every pump. at both stations (different handwriting). about a month and a half later, the buttons stopped working to mute the videos even though the hand written labels remain indigi has issued a correction as of 00:44 on May 6, 2021 |

Orange Devil posted:The reasonable sounding part is that if we accept that the purpose of a company is maximizing shareholder value (we shouldn't accept this in the first place, but bear with me here), then obviously making sure the CEO has skin in that game is a good way to tackle the principal-agent problem and align the interests of the manager with the shareholders through the one weird trick of making the manager a shareholder. Suppose the shareholders of a firm decide to prioritize dividends over share price. For many reasons (baw gawd that's Marx's music...), the real profits of an actual business will never been able to match the astronomical growth in valuation of the few companies that hit the proverbial jackpot. Which means it absolutely makes sense to prefer investment into the latter, so long as you have some ability to predict winners. Since the #1 factor enabling astronomical growth in valuations is heaps and heaps of external investment, it makes perfect sense for the extremely rich to just dogpile money into some, any firm, thereby guaranteeing (at least in the short term) an astronomical increase in it's valuation, to the point where it doesn't make sense investing in anything else (least of all anything where returns are driven by ever diminishing real profits!). At that point you have a self-propagating asset bubble built on a foundation of nothing, and we can all laugh at how stupid it is, but the reality is the people getting richest off this aren't just dumping their returns back into the casino (which they effectively control), but are purchasing real assets in the meantime. These people aren't stupid. They understand the Marxist criticism of capitalism very well and many of them have a firmer understanding of its ultimate correctness than most so-called leftists. Everything about the current phase of finance capitalism is built around consolidating as much as possible while putting de facto control of monetary policy into the hands of whoever already has the most money, and using it to secure as favorable a position as possible while capitalism inevitably reverts to a rentier economy as profits fizzle out.
