I reported this to Amazon who said that wasn’t “meant to happen” The simple fact that third party sellers can contact buyers by email is enabling this crap. All Amazon has to do is build some messaging system so all communication between

I guess if a bunch of wealthy people came to Detroit and bought properties and extracted rent from much poorer citizens with less upward mobility and nearly no chance to own a property of them own, that would be the same problem.

I guess the line could be at: I made money in the US and benefited from being a US citizen, but now I pack my things and go live elsewhere so I can benefit from the wealth differential in that country and extract rent from people there.

Please don't take this personnaly as I'm not targeting you specifically with my comment: but I don't know how I feel about wealthy foreigners coming to a place, buy property and extract rent from locals, who may not even be a

Gas fees becoming more predictable is nice, but the fact they can get so large for small transactions is quite frustrating. I wanted to swap a bunch of coins worth 8$ into another token and the gas fees were around 28$, which is just insane

I've seen some deep fakes that are very convincing, especially if you show them to someone not knowing about them. One example would be this one in which Sean Connery's face was replaced by Burt Reynold's in James Bond: http

A past colleague of mine told me a shocking story. He was a heavy weed smoker (multiple times a day) and one evening couldn't find his weed and as he was searching for it, became increasingly furious. Eventually, he was so angry that h

I'm sure plenty of folks on LinkedIn would lap it up and click on "thumbs up" or reply "Awesome!".

IT and technology workers have faced vastly increased workloads over the past 16 months, with burnout becoming a major issue amongst those tasked with propping up IT infrastructure and delivering new digital services. IT support: dealing

Seems like all the pieces are in place for this to be good at least on paper. If the demand is there, this could be a huge success for Valve.

The social structures are slowly disintagrating because their foundations were weak anyways. Religion and culture only masked it for a while. Everything is temporary in life and being a parent is a temporary role. A parent's job is to

The iPad Pros and 4th Gen have USB-C. Not sure why the iPhone doesn't at this stage.

I mostly stopped drinking alcohol 2 years ago as an experiment and was shocked at how ingrained in the culture it is. In some cases, in social events, it felt like I had to explain myself as to why I wasn't drinking. It was so strange

What got me out of depression was studying the mind and realizing that we suffer because we polarize thoughts. We associate emotional tones/value to thoughts and if we believe these thoughts are ours, then they become our inner reality

Strive to be at peace with yourself. The rest doesn't matter. Status, wealth and fame doesn't matter if you don't have inner peace.

If UAPs are a natural phenomenon, then why such secrecy? Why make a meeting behind closed doors at the government level? If they are advanced craft/drones from Russia/China, then what about all the various UFO sightings and report

I remember a video from French TV at least a decade ago. They interviewd an ex military helicopter pilot. He mentionned they one saw one of those huge cigar shaped craft flying near them. Then the craft accelerated at an insane speed that w

There has been secrecy for decades regarding UFOs/UAPs flying on Earth, I think it's fair to say this secrecy extends to outer space as well. there's very few objectives they can be achieving with big ships flying around her

How many of those 11 billion will thrive, tho? 11 billion people living in the same way we are living in the first world would be impossible.

The reason I like working from home is that I control the environment 100%. Temperature, chair, desk, monitor, computer, etc. At the office, they play music on a Sonos system all day long and this alone prevent me from going there because i

People manifest in the streets because they have to put on a mask to stop the spread of COVID. A simple mask is seen as anti-freedom. Now, just so we're clear, I'm not judging these people and I don't want to polarize COVID a

No company can be strong in all markets. Apple is entirely focused on the end user while Microsoft is focused on the enterprise market and corporate developpers. Both are very successful in their respective ways. For Microsoft to replicated

I think this is great! Obviously Google has been working on porting Fuchsia to the Nest Hub for a while and I think they made the right call by deploying it to this kind of device first. They will get more users to test it in real life scen

I don't see how that video was silly. They observed something, the equipment and radar picked it and it affected water also. The other pilot in the 60 Minutes video mentioned how they're seeing stuff like that almost every day. Wh

Well 60% of their workers chose to come back to the office. I guess not everybody likes working from home full time. Google can't really ignore that.
