I was really hoping we'd end up in a Cyderpunk future, with futuristic "orchard samurais" navigating the corporate zaibatsu plantations, looking for rogue unmonitored trunks they deck into an steal the precious Cyder.

Legend has it that Point Roberts has a disproportionate number of residents in the Witness Protection Program thanks to the border searches necessary to reach it.

I'm not sure what these "border searches" are at Point Roberts. It's been a few years since I've been there, but I've gone through that border several times where there was no in the booth, only to have an officer tap on the window from the main office and just wave me through.

Isn't it illegal for a retailer to knowingly sell fakes? That must be accessory to fraud or something. Like, technically at least?

Sure... but how are they going to prosecute the overseas fraudsters?

The most Amazon can do is shut down their storefront, which then reopens 10 minutes later under a different name.

my wife told me how you can get in deep deep poo poo for looking up medical records if they're not one of your active patients, and that people still sometimes get busted looking up celebrities and whatnot

You're allowed access to your records, but you have to request them like anyone else. If you work at a hospital or clinic or whatever, you can get in serious poo poo if you just go and access them through the records software.

Sir, the hullaboo surrounding the so-called "negative" aspects of my artisanal farm-to-table Personal Fart Aromas is completely overblown, and can be chalked up to a single muckraking review in Harpers, and a bad skin reaction to the "Brown Sunday" scent among certain Pacific Islander populations.

Not sure about the average bathroom, but womens prisons are reportedly infinitely fouler, cleanliness-wise, compared to mens prisons.

Yeah. And we were promised RFID tagged groceries 20 years ago so we wouldn't even have to use a checkout scanner, but that appears to be as hard as fusion reactors to implement.

It's not hard as gently caress, it's expensive as gently caress. RFID tags are always going to more expensive than a paper tags, not that most grocery stores even paper tag their items anymore. External RFID tags would just encourage assholes to swap tags as well, and get $200 in groceries for the price of 20 apples. And trying to get food manufacturers to build in RFID tags into their packaging is a literally impossible task, as you'd never get them to agree on a style or standard of doing so.

Cashier is such a weird job because I can't think of another job which has had such insane wage rollbacks in such a short amount of time,

Safeway used to pay cashiers $20 an hour when I was a kid, so 1980's dollars. Plus they got benefits and perks and poo poo. In less then 20 years cashier has become a minimum wage job at best.
