Yeah this is true. The TCL TV I have has an ad for Deadpool when I turn it on. It's a dumb TV in the sense of it's not connected to the Internet but it still has these from the brief period of time where it wasn't during setup. The ROKU tvs are even worse imo it has like weird scrolling banner ads as a TV screensaver. We have a Roku TV as well.

Honestly fuck all the manufacturers I don't even want a damn 'smart' TV and I'm also pissed at everyone else that enables this by not caring. I guess I helped perpetrate it also but I had no choice I would have bought differently if I could. A lot of people don't mind having non-stop ads jammed down their throats though even by objects they own. The only time I think my TV should be showing me ads is if it's literally free.

Lol this is exactly me. My phone has a Bixby button on the side. It would be really cool if I could map the button to something but all I can do is turn it off

Exactly. There was also a puzzle table once. The higher boss said he loved to see people building teamwork and closer relationships and liked the puzzle. I luckily knew the whole time that even though he said this he fucking hated the puzzle. I winced everytime he'd catch someone working on it. Some people are just oblivious AF. "He said he likes the puzzle!" Yeah he said that, but he absolutely does not and you're probably on the shit list now

They're mad because Chicago having a higher population controls the vote and makes the state vote blue. But electoral college votes are by population so even if they were two states Chicago would still cancel them out anyway yeah?

There was an ice cream party for the company. Those who attended were laid off.

For me having a job I enjoy also correlates with money. I like my current job a lot but if I got really shitty pay for it I think I wouldn't haha

Sure. But it's my understanding also that a picture in a public place of me would be fair game. But if someone were to monetize it or use it to promote a product I thought this needs permission. Otherwise why do I usually sign a release when the photo of me is going to be used for advertisements by my workplace for example. The people that asked this of me were professional photographers as well and we were in a public space. I guess I just wonder what release forms and things are for

Not necessarily about this bill in particular but I hate the bill bundling bullshit in general. Sometimes the bill appears to be about something I care about but in the bill is a ton of irrelevant stuff that sometimes I absolutely hate. I wish this wasn't able to work like this it's deceptive on purpose
