  • The trend of every thing and service having its own app, and pushing all this shit to phones and away from computers and websites..

    And the reason that everyone and their mother pushes you to use apps, is because the amount of information they can harvest and tracking they can do far exceeds what they could ever hope to collect with a stand alone browser with its pesky privacy controls and security.. and everyone gleefully gives these apps every permission they ask for, even though they should never require access to 95% of it to function, because they cant let anything get in the way of getting their immediate gratification.


  • I dont know where this person got their numbers, but the prices are WAAAAAAYYYYY off.

    I had a relative need an Ambulance ride next year. less than 1/4th a mile to the hospital. the cost was over 5000 dollars.

    last time I went to the emergency room, I got nothing but a chewable asprin, a bag of saline, a basic blood test and chest xrays and it was almost 40 grand.. and that was with the "filthy uninsured peasant" discount, which I know thats what the charts focused on, but its ridiculous how much more expensive it is with insurance, even if you dont see the cost to your wallet.

    Cause you and I both know the only thing that makes Bethesda games big sellers is the fact that anyone that buys them goes "Oh boy, I cant wait for the modders to make it actually interesting/fun/etc"
