Fucking Kia Bastards. Took my 23 Forte GT to the dealership because driver side was blowing hot air when ac was on. Thought the blend door broke it barely had 29k miles at the time. Second thought the freon had a leak. Got the warranty. They told me it would only apply if they "found" a leak. After 5 hours. They didnt find a leak had to pay $500 for diagnostics. The mechanic said it was extremely low on freon. Which would resonate with a LEAK. But since they didnt "find" it the warranty didnt apply. Never went back and have been fixing my car myself. Fuck Kia dealerships and mechanics. All they did was recharge the system told me to come back after 500 miles because they added a dye. Told the rep, "Fuck you guys, I'm never coming back."

When you are unable to obtain a "free" copy of something, do y'all just give in and pay for the thing? Or just give up on having the thing altogether? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

During college, I got all my books online Zlib or LibGen and the small amount of times i couldn't find any I'd pay someone who had a PDF copy as my last ditch effort.

If your company cant survive because it has to start paying your "contractors" as actually employees. Then you shouldn't be in business. Adios!

If we stopped spending and went on a "hunger" strike. Don't buy anything for a month. Only buy necessities food for children, the elderly, pets. And simply not buy more than that the corporations would fold over easy. We would add more stress if we stopped going to work at the same time. But what do I know?
