@WallStreetApes That’s nothing. We grew up on lead paint, formaldehyde, lawn darts and of course the greatest toy ⬇️

These are viral squishy dumplings that have exploded in popularity with kids and adults The smell is very strong. If you put them in a bag with a VOC meter, it reads a 6.8 🚨 This is an extremely serious levels. This means the fumes are more toxic than a can of paint This is a children's toy meant for kids that are ages 3+ I looked it up and found these toys test so high, they’ve actually concluded they can do significant harm to little kids These Chinese-made squishies are made from polyurethane foam, notorious for off-gassing VOCs like dimethylformamide, toluene, styrene, and others Studies in Korea, the EU and Norway have found some squishies emit extremely high levels with risk assessments showing health concerns for young children But they’re being sold in America, Canada and all over the world

@AmanitaFugax But it doesn’t, we gotta pay gas tax, ev registration tax, sales tax, income tax. Endless fees and taxes with minimal material changes. You really should care.

I simply don’t give a fuck about someone needing to pay $400/month on their paid off home to maintain the roads, emergency services, schools, and critical infrastructure around their property.
Ashley Schendel@ashleyschendel

A paid off house should actually feel paid off. When the average property tax bill is $4,427 and keeps climbing even if you didn’t sell, refinance, or magically get richer, it’s not hard to see why people feel like they never fully own the place they worked for.

Amazon boycotters, welcome to the club! Amazon is demonic Over 1 year now for me: Year 1: $167,000 Year 2: $1,200,000 Year 3: $6,700,000 Year 4: $12,600,000 Year 5: almost exited, then Amazons unconscionable policies allowed them to argue they can steal all of my inventory over a minor UPC issue (same product, different packaging) and sell it all for themselves taking all my PPC ad spend along with it They knew what they were doing, no responses to all of our investigation requests Multiple 7 figure losses Insurance also found a way to shaft me Laid off all 18 employees Now no one wants to touch buying the biz after 90% revenue drop (multiple deals fallen through) My family of 4 nearly on food stamps, sold my truck to drive an '05 prius Started a factory to get ahead of tariffs and relaunch the brand making the product myself (and other brands) lawsuit still ongoing...

@JacobSobolev @Jackkk Freedom comes from contracts. You get enough of them and you pay yourself the benefits. What is job security? Corporations drop tenured employees overnight.

@Jackkk Of course they're contractors. Kevin loves paying for results while skipping the benefits. Is that $250k actually worth the lack of job security?

Kevin O’Leary thinks the highest paying job right now is customer acquisition on social media “I used to pay those guys $48,000, now I’m paying them $250,000 because you can measure their work based on customer acquisition every week” “Most of them become contractors, they make half a million dollars a year because they know how to take content, turn it into a 59 second ad on social and acquire 200 customers” “Those people in their early 20’s are so valuable now. If you know how to use your phone, somebody wants to hire you”

Today, I'm introducing my wealth tax — and more than 50 members of Congress are joining me. It’s time for the government to start working for American families, not just the ultra-rich.

This is insane. Epic is laying off 1000 people. Fortnite has cratered in users and Epic is unprofitable as a whole: "he downturn in Fortnite engagement that started in 2025 means we're spending significantly more than we're making" They are cutting 500M in expenses too...which is a huge amount. - Slow game growth - Weaker spending (read microtransactions) - tougher cost (read higher wages and service costs) - Consoles selling less - Games competing for time with other apps Layoffs are not related to AI they say. They will double down on Fortnite content as their strategy, along with accelerating dev tools towards UE6. Employees will get 6 months severance and accelerated stock options.

@PikaPikaMfkr @TheAngeryAmeric but it means they are monitoring messages that are supposed to be e2ee on RCS, which means it's not actually e2ee it's OPEN and they have record of them somewhere in plaintext. THAT'S the issue here.

If you have T Mobile I suggest you read the new terms of service. Look for SHAFT. It covers sex, hate, alcohol, firearms and more. In short, they will fine you $500 for even talking about these or sharing images. They're actively monitoring your communication.

If you're one of those "plumbers won't be using AI" people... I have bad news. I'm in a bunch of blue collar business owner Facebook groups. (FWIW, great market research and insights, but that's not the point). They are all talking about AI. This thread is from a plumbing owners group. A plumber asked if anyone's using AI voice recorders on job sites. He walks around dictating notes and material lists into a $169 pin on his shirt. AI transcribes everything, organizes it, and sends it to his team before he's back in the truck. Every single comment on the thread was some other plumber already using one. It's going to be the plumber with an AI pin on his collar generating quotes and material lists in real time... vs the plumber still scribbling on a notepad in his truck. Wild bifurcation of customer experience, efficiency and margin.

🚨 Someone built a full virtual computer that runs inside your browser. No downloads. No installs. No VMs. Just a Docker command. It's called Neko. It runs a complete desktop environment inside a Docker container and streams it to your browser using WebRTC. Not a screen share. Not a remote desktop. A real computer running in a container that you control from any browser tab. No VNC lag. No RDP setup. No TeamViewer watermarks. Just smooth, real-time video and audio. Here's what this thing can do: → Run Firefox, Chrome, Brave, Edge, Tor Browser, or Opera in an isolated container → Run full desktop environments like XFCE or KDE → Multiple users can watch and control the same session simultaneously → Built-in audio streaming. Watch videos together with perfect sync → Persistent sessions. Close the tab, come back later, everything is still there → GPU acceleration for smooth rendering → Embed it in your own web app via API Here's why people are losing their minds over this: Watch parties. Open a movie, invite friends, everyone sees the same screen in real-time with synced audio. Open source alternative to Hyperbeam. Throwaway browsing. Need to visit a sketchy site? Do it in a disposable container. Nothing touches your real machine. Pair it with Tor Browser and a VPN for full anonymity. Team collaboration. Debug code together. Brainstorm on a shared whiteboard. Give a live demo where your audience can actually click around. Secure jump host. Access internal company apps from anywhere without a VPN. Only video leaves the container. No cookies, no tokens, no data on the client. Here's the wildest part: The backstory. The creator built this because rabb.it shut down and he just wanted to watch anime with his friends. Discord kept crashing. His internet couldn't handle streaming. So he built an entire virtual browser platform from scratch. One Docker command to start: docker run -d -p 8080:8080 m1k1o/neko:firefox Open localhost:8080. You now have a full browser running in the cloud that anyone can join. 17.3K GitHub stars. 1.2K forks. 2,133 commits. 57 contributors. 100% Open Source. Apache 2.0 License.

Im 71 years old and never received one of these surveys. I don't know anyone personally who has. I have thought for years the employment and CPI numbers were cooked. I know that CPI is bogus because I read about the adjustments on their website. Like Hedonic Quality Adjustments, Chain Weighted Substitution, Product Substitution, Chain Weighted CPI. Use ChatGPT or another AI to explain these and you will agree with me.

This is very concerning: The Current Population Survey response rate is down to ~64%, the lowest on record. This is the data the US Labor Department uses to calculate the unemployment rate and other metrics, such as underemployment and multiple jobholders. Since 2009, this percentage has fallen ~30 points and is now even below 2020 pandemic levels. Fewer people than ever are responding to the survey the Labor Department uses to publish economic data. As a result, labor market estimates are built on increasingly incomplete data and are far less reliable than in the past. What is happening here?

Trustpilot feels like the mob. Me: "I should collect reviews on Trustpilot! It'll help people trust our business more!" Signs up for business account ... Emails users to collect Trustpilot reviews ... Gets amazing 5-start reviews ... Me: "OK, let's put them on the website. Nice." Trustpilot: "Sorry, you have to pay us $299 PER MONTH to put *your* reviews on *your* site" Me: "OMG, seriously? I just want to put a couple nice reviews on my site." Trustpilot: "Actually, if you want to show the actual review, instead of making people click through to our site, you have to pay $1,099/mo". Me: Cancels account What a joke. Someone vibecode this and crush them please.
