  • Ignoring the internet bill itself, how many paid online services do you have?

    Jump

  • At this point, only Amazon prime, and only because of the free shipping and prime gaming free games (I just ignore video and music) Everything else is either adblock (YouTube) or questionably acquired (yarr!).

    They (companies offering streaming services) had their chance and got greedy, so stopped paying for Netflix and Spotify years ago.

    Not a subscription service, but I do buy PC games on Steam, and the occasional bit of physical media.

  • The Nazis want violence, that way they can justify even worse acts. Not that they need justification, they'l just keep getting worse anyway.

  • The correct response if someone offers you free drugs is "yes please, thank you!" because drugs are expensive

  • The simple answer is people want simple answers. Propaganda, especially that of the right gives them. Sure the answers are wrong, but they are easy to digest in the moment.

  • TACO probably gave him the same service he did Bill

  • Reading? No. Tasting? Yes.

  • Trump goes after America’s meat producers over rising prices after failed bid to boost Argentine beef

  • I appreciate the joke and agree. At the same time, whatever mind is there is just... Not right

  • Trump goes after America’s meat producers over rising prices after failed bid to boost Argentine beef

  • Trump doesn't care about that. He cares about the optics and the opinion of the last person to speak with him. Nothing else even exists in his mind.

  • Corporations including Apple, Google, Banks push back against Australian proposal to ban non-compete agreements

    Jump

  • In a lot of industries you will end up with client contact information, IT support at an MSP for example.

    Having a non-compete so you can't work in the industry for X months at all? Bad

    Having a non-compete so you can't quit, start your own business and poach clients straight away? I view that as fair.

    Guess which one lots of companies try and get away with.

  • Friction burns, electrical burns, as long as he's happy?

  • What's a service you’ve been using forever that hasn’t enshitified?

    Jump

  • That's kind of telling in itself to be honest. Services for most people these days mean subscription (or some kind of recurring cost). The nature of the overwhelming majority of businesses means they will be looking to increase profits. One extremely common way is to degrade the service you provide slightly. Increasing ads, lowering quality, etc.

    One of the only exceptions I would say is Steam. But people could argue that Steam isn't a true service because it's closer to a store front, at that point you're arguing semantics though.

    There's also self hosting a service to consider? How would that count in this instance. I self host a few things like nextcloud, Plex, and others. Yes it's still a program and technically a service as well?

  • I had just finished high school and enrolled in TAFE (think vocational/skills training) studying a certificate III in IT, then certificate 4. Then in 2008 an advanced diploma in network security.

    I've forgotten most of the specifics over time, but the core ideas I've picked up then and along the way have definitely helped in my current IT job.
