There were maybe one or two comments I think posted early on that made me think “wait, did I post this on CorporateJerk or HailSamWalton by mistake” 😀

Wal-Mart sux, public WiFi is not ideal, yeah duh now lemme poop on a particularly poor example of Fortune 50 behavior pls 😉

(Hmm by which I mean Fortune 1)

Thanks :)

Not only is it baked into the cost of goods and offered as one of their services to attract customers (like “free” pick up), it reduces labor costs by showing customers which shelves to peruse to find their comic books and their chocolate milk. Their captive portal also serves as an ad for digital payment & their scan + mobile checkout offerings (coincidentally both enabled by Internet service like their Wi-Fi), which may increase retention and reduce labor costs respectively.

privacy sacrifice to use internet in their cavernous dead zone of a building

It was a worthwhile sacrifice, but I’m definitely gonna name & shame! Wouldn’t touch WiFi if it weren’t a dead zone.

Also gave me a chance to complain about some of their other business practices. (Certainly wouldn’t have shopped there if I hadn’t been asked to this one time.)

I’ve never seen this message before so they seem an outlier even in the greedy corporate world. Enough complaints and every once in a while a business changes their practices. Why not whine a little? 🙂

How do ya compare incentives of Apple/Cloudflare & the big box store in terms of data privacy?

“I’ve been on gel that makes you orange for three years but I still greyscalemode in public” (I’ve been using a gel that makes my skin appear orange for three years, but I still appear in a muted, grayscale-like manner in public)

“My spectral decomposition is too close to homogeneous everyone can see it” (The distribution of colors in my appearance is too uniform and lacking in variety, so it is obvious to everyone)

“I have accepted my fate as an orangecel desaturatoid” (I have accepted my fate as an orange-colored, desaturated and dull version of myself)

“luckchromatic primaroids such as yourself could never understand” (People with normal, vibrant color perception like yourself could never truly understand my experience)

These may well all be irrelevant but I’m curious now beyond this conversation, anything here resonate with you?

1. Insecurity/Low Self-Esteem
2. Lack of Empathy
3. Learned Behavior
4. Sadism
5. Boredom/Thrill-Seeking
6. Resentment/Anger
7. Moral Disengagement

I guess my sensitive side is on today, seeing as I took the comment pretty personally, in fact being shocked reading the rudest personal attack directed at me in a year on this site.

I’m sure you didn’t mean it like that!

Right, it should have been about 3hr45min. She had a few minutes of slip around the 3hr mark, approx. Complained a bit about a couple NBD things.

Some of the content, you could just read if it were released in text format. The videos she took and those she included from others, and the Disney marketing videos, were impactful and enlightening - crucial to fully telling the story and allowing vicarious understanding. Would still need at least 1-2 or 3hr even if she released her commentary in text form.

Absolutely phenomenal and engaging presentation.

This changes everything. Only going to use my beak for eating now.

So simple. So dumb.

“I would estimate that the entire fediverse is developed off of the backs of maybe, at best, 100 engineers,” she said. “All of whom are either low paid, underpaid, or unpaid, who are trying to build software, and at the same time, are supporting the userbase of monthly active users in the range of 1.1 million to 7.4 million.”
