We left Reddit because it was a corporate captured shit show that killed the only nice apps for interacting with it. We didn't leave because they were too mean to health insurance executives, or because they made glib jokes in dark situations.

Understandably. I'm emotionally removed from the situation enough to know that I shouldn't actively celebrate, if I knew a loved one who's medical care was denied by a for profit health insurer or if I had to waste my life fighting with them for basic care, then I'm sure I would be actively celebrating too.

Quite frankly, executives of health insurance companies continually make money by denying medical coverage to people with children and letting them agonizingly die slowly.

I'm not on here celebrating his death for the sole reason that I think it's just as likely this corporate espionage / assassination for money, but if it is a normal person shooting a health insurance executive for denying a loved ones' coverage it's hard to imagine how the executive didn't deserve it.

You don't get to be separated from the morality of your actions, just because you use neutral sounding business language to describe how you're fucking over and killing people for personal profit.

Just a reminder that if a headline is a question, the answer to that question is no.

Half the US just voted in a climate change and vaccine denying, treasonous and traitorous, rapist.

Yeah, that makes sense that people will be shaken by the cruelness, and quite frankly, abject idiocy, of their peers.

Lol if Black Ops 6 can run at 60fps on it, then any game can.

Gamers just bitch and whine about the S because they have inferiority complexes and it's an easy way to feel better than.

Software parents are such absolute horseshit.

Lol bruh, have some self reflection. People do it because it's easier. If you have the time to have all the hobbies that other people have and to roll your own home servers that's great, but that means you have an above average amount of free time. Otherwise, other people have hobbies that don't include server OS updates and choose to spend their time there and pay for someone else to manage their servers.

Everyone having a FaceTime call does this. Every dash cam does this. Every Ring doorbell and self driving car does this. You can do this with a $10 usb pinhole webcam and an android phone or raspberry Pi.

The problem here is with facial recognition databases, not with people using cameras in public.
