wow, premium in the usa is expensive. it’s a little under $3 per month here in india for the family plan and even that’s after a recent 16% hike. the individual plan is even cheaper.

i guess these rates are in store for us as well in the future?

why, though? the choice of the year ending on the 31st of december is wholly made by man–nothing in nature dictates that choice.

if anything, the original calendar had february mopping up after all the other months (which is why the fewer days as well as the tacking on of the leap day there). we’ve already advanced the end of the year by an arbitrary amount of two months. what’s one more week?

unless, of course, you’re saying that the year in review does not take into account the last week of 2023. in which case, yes, you’re right.

so you’re saying the marketing strategy for the Vision was… shortsighted?

they evidently don’t want you to spend a penny in their establishment.

cows sure would appreciate that.

oh no, linekar is leaving motd? first wrighty, now him?

i don’t think shearer and micah can pull it off themselves going forward. they’re both good but, let’s face it, neither has the gravitas needed to anchor the show.

be like the tree; let the dead leaves drop.

so now we know whom to blame for its enshittification

if this were to be true to form, batman would be dangling upside down from the ceiling.

oh, so when they say she has a face that launched a thousand ships, they were all just that one boat with a thousand makeovers?!

wait till you hear about white and black boards.

employees of companies with whom you’ve registered that email id sell it for some quick cash on the side.

i can aver this confidently since i know someone from dominos pizza has leaked my email id. i have a convoluted gmail id which i use to register to all these services and – because it’s gmail – i can set up random dots and a custom phrase behind a + to register specific variants to specific companies (e.g., abcxyz123@gmail vs. ab.c.xyz123+dominos@gmail).

all the spam and pseudo-phishing email is sent only to the variant which i’ve registered to dominos and not to a different variant (e.g., a.bcxyz123+bankname@gmail) registered to any other company.

the leaked email id doesn’t contain a name and is too random for it to just be “guessed” by the spammers.

yiu do know that, every two seconds, it goes tiktok?

do look up the “forer effect” and then read that ai summary again.

while the queen escapes punishment for emplooying child labour?

man they are taking that keeping a doctor business really seriously, no?

if you believe that ai summary, i have a bridge that i’d like to sell to you.

“ceo of cloud company says employees must work on premise.”

must do wonders for the marketing of the capability of their platform.

you would have received more relevant responses if you had titled your post as, “there is absolutely no evidence that musk is against free speech. what are you folks on about, anyway?”

one must appreciate the vision and legislation that’s enforced that particular phrasing. it becomes so much more starker – how cavalierly your data is treated.
