You know the only thing more ridiculous than buying a toilet with a built in camera?

In October Kohler launched Dekota, a $600 (plus monthly subscription) device that attaches to the rim of your toilet and collects images and data from inside

Buying a camera to attach to an existing toilet, that has a monthly device fee that costs more than a fucking toilet does.

It’s not just this specific issue:

After Newsom failed to sign the bill in October, he said, “Last year, I vetoed a substantially similar bill, stating that it would limit the ability of health plans to engage in practices that have been shown to ensure appropriate care while limiting unnecessary costs. That is still the case with this bill – despite my call for a more tailored solution. This bill’s expansive coverage mandate, in conjunction with a prohibition on UM, is too far-reaching.”

Newsome is a neoliberal, and he’ll always put profits over people.

Never forget as soon as trump took office again, Newsom had Charlie Kirk and Alex Jones on his podcast sucking up to them and saying Dems need to be more like MAGA.

He didn’t pivot back to anti-maga until maga refused to let him join.

Newsom isn’t fit to be president, but he’s not fit to hold any other political office either. We can’t afford to waste time with these shit birds

Yeah, but by the same logic, why the fuck isn’t every other country dropping out and starting their own?

If Eurovision wants to allow genocidal religious extremist governments, then let Eurovision be the contest for genocidal extremists governments.

It’s that fucking easy.

Just start a new ethical one

Probably like Disney/Hulu

They’ll try a bundle deal to see if people pay for it, then if not slowly bleed shows from one service to another.

Maybe eventually combine them but they’ll try to keep paying for both as long as possible

You’re acting like that’s a common scenario…

There’s a few small slices of area in a minority of states where you might be legally allowed to pick, but that is not a guarantee there’s more than one option.

To my knowledge most of them are artificial monopolies anyways.

Like, in Perfectville your choice between any available provider is legally protected. However company A and company B made a handshake deal to draw a line down the area and not provide service on one side of the line.

Very few of those green states are for electricity

And if you just meant:

Non profit = good

Then I’m going to have to explain an entirely different thing…

And I’m not optimistic about our chances to be honest

Bullshit.

You really think companies in America with monoplies would lower prices just because their costs went down?

I wish I lived in an America like that…

Playing Russian roulette with 2 bullets is safer than playing with five…

But if someone called 2 bullet Russian roulette safe, most people could see how stupid that was.

“safely”…

You might not break any bones, but spinal/brain damage is almost guaranteed from an ejection. To the point pilots still die because they’re scared to eject and end up running out of time.

It’s literally a rocket that shoots you straight up, then after you start falling the chute gives another jolt.

20-30% of the time it fractures the pilots spine.

And the article quotes on pilot who said he’s an inch shorter after

People thought they’d hang onto CDs and DVDs too…

Good luck…

Even when the bubble bursts, they’re going to have an insane amount of computing power just sitting there, it will get sold off in bankruptcy proceedings, and some company will gobble it up and operate at a loss while continuing to secure future supply contracts.

There’s a very real chance that we’re witnessing the slow death of home computing.

The way things shake out it might end up being prohibitively expensive compared to cloud computing, and once that’s the norm they price gouge like Walmart did to destroy small businesses.

Instead of dropping a couple grand for a PC every couple years, we’ll have steady contracts paying for month at a time indefinitely.

Jon Oliver did an episode on them, the whole company is a shit show.

They fuck over consumers by selling small volume at insane price per unit/quantity, and treat their employees like abaolute shit. Like, ridiculous levels of understaffing to the point huge deliveries show up in the middle of working hours with one employee in the whole store.

It’s why every dollar store looks like a warzone.

How is one person going to do everything?

He’s “cool enough” to not fuck more shit up, but clearly won’t actually do anything to help.

Loves getting his name out in the press and making threats, but won’t actually do anything.

Won’t even prevent Illinois law enforcement for working with ice for fucks sake.

It’s insane the billionaire owned media is able to convince so many people that a multi-billionaire refusing to do anything to help is something to be celebrated just because his boot is calmly on our throats instead of actively stomping.

If Pritzker wasn’t in office, we could have someone willing to fight instead.

Maybe if the governor wasn’t a multi-billionaire focused on his own wealth the state could bring charges…

But he has too much wealth at stake to ever really fight back

They blame it on a shooting last week but…

“National guard members supporting this mission have been armed with their assigned duty weapons since August 2025, in support of civil authorities and at the request of the lead federal agency,” a JTF-DC spokesperson said.

People having to rely on investments to retire means everyone keeps paying into it…

I saw an article the other day about a possible crash coming when boomers finally die and their 401ks get liquidated.

It going to cause the people who own the vast majority of stocks a sizable amount of money. And them wanting people to invest young just means they want them to keep pumping money into the stock market, it’s the only way for numbers to keep going up. If people stop buying it, prices go down.

when you live 10 minutes to the border it is always tempting to fill your tank there for instance

I’d be shocked if those people were doing so by airplane tho…

1,200,000 a month is still wild…

I have no idea why they’re still coming here, it’s way to risky to be crossing the borders

but I have to say the way you talk, you seem like you yourself has been brainwashed by Far Left Dominating parties in your country, who are brainwahsed into thinking that no one other than them has free press.

What?

You think “far left” Americans think America has a free press?

That’s completely out of touch with reality.

But I’m always curious about other people’s points of view:

As the mod of a far right religious and ethnic nationalist community in India, what do you consider “far left”? Is it just the belief that people are equal regardless of ethnicity, religion, or “caste”?

Would those beliefs be extreme to you?

What specifically are the “far left” beliefs that you think are so terrible? Because my assumption is your about to complain about far right authoritian governments like Russia and China…

Quick edit:

The community

https://lemmy.world/c/HindutvaTalks@lemmy.ml

The sidebar:

This is a community that aims to promote Hindu Heritage and Hindu Nationalism.

Openly advocating for a religious ethnostate…

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindutva

Since the mid-2010s, there has been a notable increase in violence motivated by Hindutva ideology, particularly towards Muslims,[217] and includes acts of extremist terroristic violence.[218][219][220] This has principally been perpetrated by or has implicated members, or alleged members, of Hindu nationalist organisations such as the RSS or Abhinav Bharat.[221][222][223] The violence has also been condoned by the BJP politicians and used as an electoral strategy to garner support from the far-right Hindu population

It’s literally part of the Wikipedia segment of fascism…

I think being the top article means he wasn’t well known.

Most people had no idea who he was until maga started acting like everyone knew gim., so people looked at Wikipedia

But India is showing results

Only if you only consume Indian media, because for 70 years now you all haven’t had press freedoms

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_the_press_in_India#Censorship_on_press

Which, the 1950s was when your current government was formed, crushing the press was like the first thing the far right BJP did

I highly doubt you’ve ever been alive to experience a free press (unless you’re over 70) so it’s not your fault, you’ve been brainwashed your entire life by far right authoritarians…

Except your lucky enough to have the internet, your not limited to only hearing what your government wants you to hear. You can just skip the propaganda instead of spreading it and defending it

Unless of course, your a supporting of the far right Bharatiya Janata Party and that’s why you made this post…

Are you a supporter of the far right Bharatiya Janata Party Mr BharatiyaReformist@lemmy.ml?
