roku already runs ads if you stop watching something on their smart TVs, although they're just visual stills (on a screensaver) without audio & for the roku channels or other streaming services.

also if I'm watching media through a usb drive, it asks for permission to share info "with other applications" and if you deny it then you have to remove it, go to the home screen, and put it back in, then go back to the media player to be able to watch anything on the drive.

The fed telling companies start laying off people or else.

So far we’ve had unilever laying off 7500, Amazon just laid off several hundred in AWS, all the gaming studios melting down etc

Also, big companies aren’t really hiring as they claim they are

It’s all smoke and mirrors

If the government could cause earthquakes with radio waves, that would be cool as gently caress but I think they probably would have used it as a weapon in any of the wars we've been in over the past half a century

I hated UBI when it was the Andrew Yang gimmick because it was being presented as an alternative to, eg, M4A or student debt cancellation, and all the examples you'd see of what people would spend their UBI on tended to be about their student loan payments or medical expenses

but since we're not getting either of those loving things anyway, sure, bring in the UBI

it sucks so much waiting at the pharmacy with the line snaking out into the aisles. it gets awkward when you need to move aside so another shopper can look for a bottle of laxatives only for them to find there's none left anyway.

i have never had to stand in line for a pharmacy anywhere but America.
