| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2]: Gillette brought back the original Mach 3. | Jul 19 02:22 |
| IsambardPrince | They changed it in 2011 and you went from getting two months or more of good shaves off one head, to maybe a week. | Jul 19 02:23 |
| IsambardPrince | Then 15 years later, they said "New and Improved" and the only thing they changed was they went back to the heads that last more than two months. | Jul 19 02:23 |
| IsambardPrince | I can't imagine the amount of brand damage they did and the generation of customers they lost was worth the short term earnings figures. | Jul 19 02:23 |
| MinceR | :> | Jul 19 02:28 |
| IsambardPrince | According to the news, the companies that are getting over $168 billion in refunds from the illegally collected tariffs are "using them to offset inflation caused by the war". | Jul 19 02:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Jul 19 02:45 | |
| IsambardPrince | I don't think it was ever in question as to whether the consumer was ever going to get their money back. More like how are they going to frame keeping it and stiffing us. | Jul 19 02:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Jul 19 02:45 | |
| IsambardPrince | Anyway, there are lawyers who are setting up class action lawsuits on behalf of the consumers who were harmed. | Jul 19 02:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Jul 19 02:45 | |
| IsambardPrince | Either way, the companies will settle for less than they kept, the lawyers will take half of whatever they throw the case for before they have to do actual work. | Jul 19 02:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Jul 19 02:45 | |
| IsambardPrince | So I think the usual playbook applies there too. | Jul 19 02:45 |

| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2]: I remember my great-grandmother. She died when I was young, but I remember her being there. I remember the phone call in 1989 that she had passed. In the kitchen in the first house. | Jul 19 04:35 |
| IsambardPrince | She made it to 92, and lived through hardships that most Americans could barely even imagine. | Jul 19 04:36 |
| IsambardPrince | So yes, I do have memories of someone who was born in the 19th century. I remember that I really liked her. She was one of the genuinely nice people I've met. The few genuinely nice people. | Jul 19 04:38 |
| IsambardPrince | There's a lot of fake politeness these days. | Jul 19 04:39 |
| IsambardPrince | You have to fake it, perform it. Jobs depend on it. They get rid of the ones who are not polite. | Jul 19 04:39 |
| IsambardPrince | So even people who abuse women, who abuse animals, who freak people the fuck out in their private life because they're so gross. | Jul 19 04:40 |
| IsambardPrince | They learn to be "polite". | Jul 19 04:40 |
| IsambardPrince | It's compartmentalization where even some of the psychos learn to be functional in a workplace. | Jul 19 04:40 |
| IsambardPrince | Workplace behavior is a narrow sample. You see someone in a structured environment with clear incentives for compliance and real consequences for failure. That's not where character shows up. Character shows up when there are no consequences, no audience, and no performance required. | Jul 19 04:41 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2]: As to Windows 11, there's no real incentive to "upgrade". | Jul 19 04:44 |
| IsambardPrince | It runs slower, it breaks things that "worked" on Windows 10, including applications and drivers. | Jul 19 04:44 |
| IsambardPrince | Microsoft keeps extending the patches for Windows 10 another year, the second time now. | Jul 19 04:44 |
| IsambardPrince | This is turning into another Windows XP situation, and they fueled it in part by adding fake requirements in order to hide the fact that it's slower, by making sure that you need a new system for it. | Jul 19 04:45 |
| IsambardPrince | If you override two settings, it installs and goes ahead and works, Windows 11 does. | Jul 19 04:45 |
| IsambardPrince | But the performance degradation is visible even on a laptop that was very expensive in 2016. | Jul 19 04:46 |
| IsambardPrince | Even basic tasks like moving a mouse pointer around feel janky, not terribly, but enough to make it uncomfortable in a way that Linux isn't. | Jul 19 04:46 |
| IsambardPrince | Microsoft used to do the opposite. They used to publish extremely optimistic minimum requirements. | Jul 19 04:47 |
| IsambardPrince | Then you upgraded and found out the new version was a slideshow even though the last one worked okay. | Jul 19 04:47 |
