I pay $100 for my eye exam and $150 for my glasses every couple years.

It would take 30+ years for that cost to reach the Lasik levels you paid, and that's assuming I'm not doing anything with the $3750 remaining after the first appointment.

Unfortunately they walled garden themselves pretty universally. I've been on Tidal since Spotify fired all those people and have been really enjoying it.

Maybe I'm crazy but I feel like their recommended music is also way better.

Hachette is one of the Big 5 publishers at 10% market share. Penguin Random house (25%), HarperCollins (11%) and Wiley (not big 5 but still ~10%) were also in the suit.

Hachette, Penguin and HarperCollins are basically half of all books that come out.

Or what the NSA collects about Americans... like where you go when, who you meet, what you buy, what you talk about, who you're friends with, if you are pregnant or not, etc.

Idk the internal company culture is supposed to be pretty damn good and stable. Flat management structure with everyone getting to work on whatever they please...

Seems like a replacement council would probably do fine.

UBI has to be funded by taxation on the rich. If you give Mick 2k/mo but tax him 5M/mo i think you're coming out ahead, and you're avoiding all the bureaucracy of deciding who does and doesn't get the 2k... Which would be large, complex and prohibitive.

Private companies, for better or worse, are beholden only to the boss. No shareholder value to worry about.

That's the only reason steam hasn't been turning the thumbscrews on developers for stage 3 enshittification profit seeking.
