Fuck. You’re probably right. It’s all about nudging us towards the behavior they want.

I had an S8 a couple years back and upgraded to an S10 when it first came out. The notification light went away and it was a huge bummer. I now have a Pixel 7 and it doesn’t have it either, so I’ve learned to live without it.
And as the coup de grâce, their name is LemmyKnowsBest.
Personally, idgaf what they do with Prime Video. After about a decade of having Prime, the only thing that has ever caught my attention was Rings of Power and that shat the bed so I’m good there.
I order enough off Amazon that faster delivery is a major draw for me. Ordering from other merchants is a drag because Amazon set the standard forever ago. But is it worth $140/year? Idk, I’ll have to do the value calculation on that one. But it’s getting closer to not being worth it. Especially if they continue to bundle the cost of video that I don’t use onto my shipping subscription.
Scrubs is fantastic. If you’re into comedic sitcom with serious moments you should definitely give it a try.
But taking money away from employees is?
I’m Pretty sure they’re speaking hypothetically, as if they were the artificial brain.
Yes?
If you don’t have the skills or experience to sell yourself then obviously you don’t have a lot of options.
If there is an afterlife, hopefully they’re not in the same place.

Or maybe proper care for a kid really does cost $20k a year and half the population could not care for one without assistance or a partner to help cover those costs.
Plenty of children go without in this country.
Well yeah you can understand most stories without reading/hearing the first part and it’s not like Legend of Zelda is exactly Moby Dick.
Maybe everyone’s a completionist and would rather play the games in order rather than jump into the story halfway through ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Lol, it is easier to distinguish between people of your own culture, that’s been tested. That said, it was a real dumb thing to say.
What gets me is that yeah that’s their excuse, but if someone treated, say, an orangutan or a baboon like this I’d think that was pretty fucked up too. We were so gross. We still are (dog fighting, circus elephants etc) but the cruelty that we’re capable of without what is essentially moral peer pressure, is chilling to think about. Even today we fight tooth and nail against moral progress and treating everyone with respect.
It would be irksome, sure. But there is no amount of weaponry that China could supply Cuba with that would threaten the USA (short of nukes), so it would be a moot point. Business as usual. Taiwan similarly has no hope of success in attacking China, regardless of how many weapons the USA provides. Meaning: this only works one way, and if China is upset about that then maybe they should keep their eyes (and hands) within their own borders and everything will be fine.
There’s nothing to understand, it’s the same situation. Neither Panama nor Cuba are currently under threat from the USA. The USA does not claim ownership over either, and is not threatening their sovereignty.
You’re the one not understanding the false equivalency.
If you’re comparing China/Taiwan circumstances to USA/Panama I’m sorry but I cannot call that a critical thought. The only similarity is proximity.

The only problem I have with that is the notion that a company gets to consolidate funds that were previously going to an actual real person. Now, if we could rely on big business to pass on those savings to their customers and employees, that would be one thing. But we can’t.
