I'm a huge fan of the attention annihilator, personally.
We here at EvilDork Corp believe the future is in the Torment Nexus!
Who is this POS?
who needs democracy when you have technology, right?
Who is this particular flavor of wanker?
I believe that is billionaire mogul and political influencer Peter Thiel, co-founder of Palantir. Pretty much evil personified.
I'm really enjoying

- Encrypted piracy
Fake money for criminals because that also means diy hrt, recreational drugs, and piracy.
Its not all money laundering y'know! Sometimes its the good criminals!
Don't forget the drugs.
But anyone who buys crypro for "speculation" deserves to get their money-handling privileges revoked.

Fake money for criminals is awesome I use it when im doing criminal activity online.
....motherfuckers are upvoting a crosspost from POLITICALMEMES in what is supposed to be a shitposting community. Y'all are fucking masochists. This isn't a shitpost and you know it.
My thought is that it’s devoid of nuance (part of what makes it funny) so therefore it’s shitty?
It's designed to piss of pro-AI folks and other techbros. The trolling is what makes it a shitpost.
Surelly it's at minimum a post about shit, so posting it here is kinda like going to a meeting of Alcholics, Anonymous only to find out it's actually a bar where nobody knows your name.
I only use Lenny from the toilet on company time. By this definition, everything is a shit post

Dynamic prices in the supermarket.
years ago, a big boss of an evil hotel company I worked was doing a AMA and got asked "where do we draw the line on ethics?". His answer was "at the end of the day, if you don't feel comfortable telling your mother what you did today, then don't do it" I loved this answer and used this very often.
Then a few months later, he directly made us work on the dirtiest geopricing / yelding features I ever saw. I guess the real question to ask during that day was "where do your mother draw the line on ethics?"
That’s where he draws the line on ethics… for everyone else.
You should have called his mother and explained it to her and asked if she agreed?
maybe his mother died?
made us work
So, you didn't draw the line there either?
Thanks for asking. I found the idea to be an unethical dark pattern, so I made my point, but in companies like these, it's not enough. So I implemented a light experiment of what was asked, and it validated my hypothesis: it was not solving a real need and was actually not even improving revenue, and that it was indeed leading to a poorer user experience. Since the request was really pushed top down, I still had to move on with so I limited it to the specific population where it would make more money. Who has the most money to spend in cheaper countries? US tourists going to Latin America. Let's make it more expensive for Americans to stay in a Colombian hotel than for a local. It pleased the small hotel owners, had a positive impact on local tourism... good enough.
Then I moved to a different team and they threw away my work went full on and delivered the whole shit.
I'm glad you at least tried.
No "musician ripoff platform which funds AI weapons development" option..?

Honestly the illegal cab company has been the most useful for me. Sometimes my car breaks down.
Mind you, the best illegal service I ever used was Dream market. Very convenient for buying acid and weed.
I agree. Set prices are a game changer especially if you are visiting in another country. Drivers are less likely to rip off tourists and communication is a lot better.
I spent a good couple minutes trying to figure out what the illegal crab company is. I might need glasses.
Old Bay has some major skeletons in the closet
The crab people from South Park didn't renew their T-Mobile authorized retail license again?

airbnb was cool, i have fond memories of meeting interesting new people this way. then it enshittified and is now generally worse than hotels every time.
so there is no longer a marketplace where you can get the house sharing experience, which is sad.

I think smart people deserve to be billionaires while we can get managers directors and people below them into the
The "I know where you live" device.
But the stock market is so bigly.
I think the last two are related. With whatever weird carousel fraud is going on between the AI companies and techbro city.
