It’s a big club and you ain’t in it. They have to sell it until the end and this guy is on the outs and not getting invited to the “good” yacht parties at the moment.

The judgement you are considering from this person is the same judgement (and morality) that thought it was fine to be a close and frequent associate of jeffrey epstein.

Bill gates is a desperate, broken man. He is the illusion of a man you once admired vaguely and that is the only remaining currency he holds that matters to him. The best thing about bill is the wife who left him.

On behalf of humanity thank you for using your response to refocus us all on the need to seek greater context for surface level compelling internet finds.

That said, pet sitting has become just so expensive these days when we need to travel…

Cancel it, you’ll be okay.

The trouble is that of the few remaining mom and pop places, they are typically run by folks that started working early and had limited education. They are fodder for manipulation. POS systems get in or cheap/free at times, charge for the service and “surface insights”.

“You could be charging most for X”

“this is your best seller on weekday afternoons”

And these decent folks, like many of us, can have some imposter syndrome. We don’t want to look like rubes so we press the button to test higher prices on X.

You fool, I can now access your hub!!!

They broke the social contract. The thing that a polite, cooperative society is built on. So now we see what that means as more everyday folk realize it over time.

See my other response, it’s very much not random. Every processed product in the modern world is hyper optimized for profit. At the least , they know the average weight of shell with nut and without in grams or something smaller. Also likely a hopper with high speed cameras to count yield per bag to maintain exact profit margins. There could be, and likely is, a scale at the end of line that weighs and would five a fairly faithful estimate of empty percentage per bag. And all that is automated.

Problem is that infrastructure likely exists more or less and they have just turned up the acceptable percentage of empties probably. Like anything else, VC pushes those lines quarter after quarter until people might revolt (or in another time, an administration regulates an acceptable amount of “defective” product).

You are seriously underestimating the industrial factory technology at scale to do quality control when processing food. If they wanted, they could literally remove individual ants from the flow of 5 ton sacks of coffee beans, in a sustainable way. They literally have lasers and sensors to find undesirable product and knock it out of high speed belt flows of fruits and vegetables with micro targeted jets of air and things like that.

You’re mistake is is that you are thinking of how YOU would sort these yourself, that’s part of our problem as humans, we have a bit of a narcissistic bias. Similar to trump people that think, " he’s doing well enough… I’d do a but better probably, but he’s doing okay" they are comparing to themselves as baseline, when they aren’t even near qualified either.

Never realized the incentives these ghouls have to add empty shells to the mix to bulk the bag… Diabolical. If it isn’t intentional, venture capital is watching and it’s certainly now their next rock to squeeze blood from.

You’re focused too much on msrp for this category that was perpetually “on sale”. While I agree that a 24 pack likely wasn’t this price, a 12 pack was functionally $1.50 - $2 each IME. 3 for 5, 4 for 8 kind of things. Typically dependent on meeting quantity to trigger sale price though.

Your avocado oil is likely rancid.

OP why are you posting a 3 month old article with no updated information or that needed context that this was in the past? There was a discussion then.

It’s almost like you are trying to upset people again for sport, because reddit broke your brain and you think internet points are important. Almost like that.

Because it sounds like “future” to stupids.

You think normal people know how to migrate photos off of their phones to clear storage space?

No.

Expandable memory was removed, cameras moved up to 17,000 megapixels stitching together 8 shots from 4 cameras for each photo stored RAW. All so that you fill up your sad amount of default storage, tell everyone you have a “slow” phone and then pay to upgrade a 2 year old $1400 phone.

The digital signature is things you don’t see. The visual signature is more for ceremony as it’s referring to our past to smooth the transition

To a point, but if you want it done more efficiently in multiple ways, you get cameras like this.

Seriously though, do you even know what you are arguing for here? What you are defending? Insecure people on the internet, trying to be right for the sake of it, even if it means casually normalizing the next indicator of our fascist takeover.

What are you doing?

Dude… Are you really oblivious to the difference? These are for facial recognition, eye tracking and surveillance pricing through RFID price tags.

Look up the “overton window”

BDR, Big Dumb Robot?

• New Nuremberg trials for all in, and allies propping up, the former regime

• Transparent audit of everything trump broke and real-time checklist of process to restore critical needs, prioritizing human lives.

• A lasting and appropriate punishment for trump himself

• Recovering the funds to do all of the above from trump and complicit billionaires in the private sector - starting with musk for his own crimes against humanity.

• A job corp to employ all of the AI layoffs, similar to the New Deal’s Civilian Conservation Corps. Needs a healthy vetting to avoid left over trump chuds

• Expand the Supreme Court

• End Citizens United

• All trump appointees, in all positions, are removed from offices immediately. If not convicted in new Nuremberg trials, they can still reapply for positions and be consists as any other

• The demolished east wing will be rebuilt as a simple building and used as a museum to the attrocities that trump committed and the people and institutions that enabled him. An artist will be commissioned to design a pitch black facade, perhaps in the shape of the old building. It should look out of place and awkward, and stand forever as a sort of black eye on America. To show how the nation was injured and not cover it up. There will be legislation to perpetually fund the museum and make admission free to all.

The future will require a simple understanding - there was not an equivalency here, no two valid sides. The was objective wrong and right. No more pretending
