I assumed he hadn’t sold his stock because HP paid a dividend (which could’ve been substantial with all his stock from being there so long). But HP doesn’t. 🤷

Sad story of corporate idiocy. All too common.

You are now correct. They move a lot. https://storageioblog.com/seagate-to-say-goodbye-to-cayman-islands-hello-ireland/amp/

And IIRC moved their headquarters to some Caribbean island to avoid paying US corporate taxes.

Exactly, also stop vilifying “advertising” when the cause of advertising is corporations. There would be no advertising without corporations paying for it. It’s like complaining about ashes instead of the fire.

Oreo’s have had all their flavor sucked out of them through enshitification—and to make you eat more to feel satisfied.

Go to any grocery store (like TJ’s) and just buy “Sandwich Cookies.” THEY taste like Oreos used to.

(But, you have to eat them fast as they degrade quickly like actual food, something Oreos isn’t.)

I told people, he’s just gonna back up the truck and drain this country.

They didn’t “choose to,” they “got to!” What an honor! 🙄

Did the same thing. Got them using FOSS apps on Windows (Firefox, LibreOffice, Thunderbird), then switched them and made Linux look like Windows. They never cared, kept on using it like nothing changed.

MyRadar is scary good, in my experience.

I’m bad at math, but should that be 32% of Americans not voters.

Workers learning the news: “Oh, damn. I work for a sh!t company now?!?”

I had a brain fart when talking to a new coworker and couldn’t remember her name. She was very attractive, and this had clearly never happened to her before. She became very agitated and upset about it. (She wasn’t a b*tch or anything, just unaware of the benefits she got from being pretty.)

I was always nice and respectful to her, but for the rest of our time working together, I continued forgetting her name and it drove her nuts.
