The used car market is being strongly manipulated by the banks. Their inventory of repossessions has skyrocketed over the past few years, but they are limiting how many are going to auction so not to destroy the market and their margins. I’ve heard rumblings that with the push for EVs and their costs, carmakers are going to make them a service. You pay a monthly fee to use them and every few years you will get a new one. You will never own one outright. Who knows if this is true or not.

This is really just a power-grab move. There already is “Let’s Encrypt” - try going to a website that isn’t https. You’ll know right away that you might have typed a web address wrong.

The TLDR: Here, you need to eat these grass clippings to save the planet. Never mind every store you go to has items made-of and encased in plastic. Never mind that your fuel efficient car is made of plastic. Never mind the climate spokespeople that live in houses and fly in private jets have an environmental impact of small cities. Listen to them tell you what to eat and how to live, just don’t question what they eat and how they live. If there is going to be real change, we won’t have yearly cellphone upgrades. Items will packaged in biodegradable materials. We won’t have same-day delivery for anything. Hospitals and medical offices will go back to glass, metal and reusables. They will sterilize instead of throwing away. Items will be repairable instead of refuse when they break. The burden has always been placed on the individual, but a company is given a pass because they say good things, not do good things.

I have always believed that the majority of the world’s problems stem from almost all of the world’s countries rely on a private bank to print and regulate their money. Those banks aren’t capitalistic, but I bet the people behind them are the richest in the world.

Mullvad from the AUR, it’s great.

If they are selling ad time, they are selling influence.

I was on the way out a couple of months before the API thing. The content had gotten stale and it was harder and harder to have honest conversations. Posts getting down voted - for every up vote there was a down vote no matter how much it changed. I made a post once that went somewhat viral and it was nothing but a toxic shit show. All I was doing was sharing a hardware mod - not asking for help or opinions. I had really grown tired of it. This migration to the Fediverse was well timed for me. Now have I gone back? Not intentional, like others have said looking for answers - not engagement.

If you’re on a phone, try Newpipe. If it is AndroidTV, there’s only one - SmartTube.
