There is billions of dollars in preventing this. Amazon has an entire fleet of people hired for the sole purpose of stopping unionization, which is illegal but they get away with it because power.
This is what happens when money and power write our laws. First step is to get money out of politics. No more millionaires representing people making an avg of 35k a year.
The USA is supposed to be a Country of the people, by the people and for the people.
Free market communism sounds American as fuck to me.
Free markets can exist without corporate overlords, we collectively need to stop believing the Capitalism vs Communism false-dichotomy. Hybrid systems are the future, any other pure system devolves into slavery.
I’ve been dreaming of a future where Uber, DoorDash, etc are devoid of any corporate organization. Developers, drivers and support staff are the only human workers, the rest is organized by a complex, but open source, program.
No investors, no shareholders, every cent goes to the workers. Wages are higher in prices are lower because we aren’t paying five VPs a million dollars a year or sending all our profits to the shareholders.
I think advances in computing and AI could actually make this possible. If only greed didn’t run the world it might be doable
I want free market capitalism that works for us. What we have now if slavery with extra steps
Walmart’s Onn 4k Android TV box is perfect IMO. Costs $20
You can’t game on it, but I never had one issue streaming video

cant tell if this is sarcasm…
Android TV has freed me from watching ads at all, ever.
When I visited family I was shocked how much ads people watch, even on services they pay for
Since it’s android you can make it work how you want it to.
Install a different launcher, like Projectivy and you can make your homescreen exactly what you want, no cluttered mess of ads
Get SmartTube for youtube
change what your buttons do with TVQuickActions
My dirt-cheap $20 walmart Android TV box now looks nothing like it did when I first booted it. Completely customized to how I want it to work. I even have it set up so my Disney button makes my livingroom lights dim for movies.
I just got this and it is amazing I love that you can create ‘channels’ for your apps
being able to select from my subscriptions via SmartTube, or my media categories in Jellyfin, or whatever I want!
The original homescreen was cluttered with essentially advertisements, this is way cleaner
the sponsor-block feature is so dang nice if you watch a lot of podcasts. Sometimes it’s like 30 min of ad-reads total
Fuck all this representative bullshit. They never actually represent us.
That sounds like a great plan to have the money squandered.
Maybe the dividend is just applied towards your tax return, that would reduce the complexity of issuing 350k shares. I don’t want politicians getting their grubby hands on the money.
Let them keep their control of the company, but give shares of the company to the American people who paid to bail them out.
Everyone gets dividends
What if we just give every American a portion of the company that we bailed out?
Eventually the average American would own stocks in many different banks.
Eventually the American people will have majority share, at that point we vote on the actions of the bank as if we were the board.
so they are treating computer parts like diamonds now? Faking supply shortages to increase demand, therefore prices?
Capitalism is so efficient.
starting to wonder if my heart irregularities are from COVID. I get a ridiculously strong pulse after just a 1 mile walk with my dog.
Got COVID from my cousin during Christmas, still feeling terrible.
He went to the doctor and they didn’t even test him. they just assumed it was the flu and gave him Tamiflu.
Tested myself after I got it and came up positive for COVID. It seems that our medical professionals are complicit in the cover-up of diagnoses. Once it left the news people just assumed it was gone.
Thats a fair point, i only notice it when trying to watch Korean movie. Thats not often for me, but i could see it being an issue if you use them often
You can set your download options in Sonarr and Radarr so that you only get certain filetypes and certain bitrates. This can keep you from filling your drive with 10GB+ 4k movies if you don’t need that quality too
I highly suggest revisiting, using that guide I linked.
I gave up on my media server many times due to complexity and issues, once I set this up I can’t go back.
IDK man, I am able to continue shows where I left off and do anything Netflix can do You can see all the actors in a movie, and then see all the shows and movies I have that the actor is in. I think it’s more featured than Netflix
I followed this guide to set it up so shows automatically download, and I can add movies to be monitored. I don’t do anything unless I want to add a new show for monitoring.
I have every movie I’ve ever liked, and don’t have to switch platforms when my show gets removed from Netflix.
$0 a month…
Once they raised prices I created a media server with jellyfin (+Sonarr, Radarr, QBittorrent) and never looked back.
Automatically downloads new episodes of my favorite shows
Got my own personal netflix accesible anywhere with infinite users. No one can cancel an episode of my fav show and erase it from existence.
you can thank State Street, Blackrock and Vanguard for buying up the American dream to rent it to you forever. Democrats are trying to limit this by stopping hedge funds from buying homes, which are for families.
When do we start to see corporate assassinations? At what point do we see people start to fight back? We are slowly slipping into full on ‘subscription’ based lives. They are stealing our children’s future away, one home at a time. Essentially turning our economy into slavery 2.0
Because of the extreme prices and demand for homes, my apartment rent went up 24% in October. They are literally taking half my income now. Half my life belongs to this one multi-billion dollar corporation now. The other half goes to my other living expenses. I make double the average American and I am basically a slave already
It’s 2030, you own nothing and you are happy
