So it’s your opinion that corporations were not greedy before 2020?

Is it truly your belief that corporations were not greedy over the last 15 years, but somehow got really greedy at the same time that there were major supply chain shocks across the planet? Or is it more likely that “corporate greed” is a more enticing answer to a complex economic problem?

If the price increases were purely inflation then it would stand to reason that profits wouldn’t have gone up so much

During inflation, the value of EVERYTHING goes up. Companies pull in more money because money is not worth as much as it was

It’s just inflation. Corporate greed is a poor excuse for price increases

I use proton vpn

I was perfectly happy with streaming services for a couple years when there were only like 2 good ones. I stopped torrenting for a long time and now I’m back to torrenting again

Communism is the original bootlicking

Tbh it seems like there are no good alternatives to protonmail. You just have to host your own

How’s that boot taste

Yeah just had to genocide a few million Ukrainians to get there!

Yeah that’s why the Soviet union outcompeted capitalism in the 1980s lmao

Can’t imagine wanting to work for big tech these days lol. These companies had insane reputation in the 2010s. People thought working for Google was like working in willy wonka’s chocolate factory. They really squandered their brand.

Feel bad for his mom, not him

I had a bitwarden premium family plan

I recently moved my digital life away from google and microsoft. I previously had the following subscriptions:

• ExpressVPN
• Onedrive
• Bitwarden
• Office 365

And I had a gmail account, which I often used for SSO. I realized that, the total monthly cost of these subscriptions together was more expensive than a single Protonmail *family * subscription, so I cancelled them all, got the family subscription, and now my wife and her sister all have protonmail accounts as well as storage, a password manager, and VPN access. In the process of moving my logins to my protonmail account, so that I don’t have to keep my ancient Facebook account around for signing into things like spotify anymore. Coupled this with moving to the federated internet from reddit and instagram

I also dropped office for libreoffice. MS Office provides dubious value over the free competition, especially with a SAAS model.

How is day smaller than month? There are up to 12 values for month, but up to 31 for days

Finland. Coffee, cigarette, and vodka. Called blöro

Neither is tiktok. It’s just media

I’ll take “dad’s who die alone in retirement homes” for 3000, Alex

Fuck his brother
