Try to remember that everything you have in your life or purchase for daily use is conveniently close to your non-car lifestyle because of hydrocarbon powered transportation networks, which doesn’t just eat the cost as a gesture of goodwill, the price of transportation is included in what you purchase.

COVID and recent financial policies changed our economy from “charge what it costs + a reasonable profit margin” to “what’s it worth to you?”

I think we need to seperate the ability for a corporation to make decisions of its own free will from the notion of fairness and equity for a society which allowed a franchise like Wendy’s to be created. They’re giving many of their supporters the middle finger after thinking they found a winning lottery ticket.

I can understand being pissed off about it as someone who isn’t rich, but I also understand it’s a system I have no control over other than what I choose to buy myself. I won’t support Wendys if they want to choose profits over people. It’s sad to see more of the world turn into a heartless corporate hellhole.

I personally hope they got their numbers wrong and they fail.

They wouldn’t do it without crunching the numbers first.

They may lose 15% of their customers, but the ones that stay bring in 25% more money with less capital spent on labour and resources by having less customers.

The point isnt making good food for people. The point is funneling money towards the conglomerate that owns the Wendy’s franchise. This is capitalism.

They’re outright accepting less customers in favor of those willing to pay higher prices.

That’s great for a quarter, maybe a year, maybe 5. At what point does it catch up and you’ve trained everyone to stop eating fast food because you wanted to charge more than people can dedicate to food?

If he’s asking me, he’s an asshole. I choose to interpret it the way you did, and use it as a way to improve yourself and your community.

Well, we’re here talking about an important issue and he’ll be remembered forever.

What are you using your life for?

Sad.

You could be green with 6 arms, it doesn’t matter. One doesn’t need to be Jewish to be sucking Bibi’s cock as passionately as you are.

Don’t forget to put those sunflower seeds in your pocket komrad, Slava Ukrainia and glory to the heros!

You talk of spouting my mouth off, when yours is too full of Bibi’s shriveled cock to speak words clearly.

Your God is watching, are you sure they’re happy with your actions? Have you read your Holy Book lately without Bibi’s interpretation? Maybe consider he’s the devil you’re supposed to identify, not follow into hell. Fool.

Much like the rest of your mentally ill brethren, your fantasies of confronting someone that won’t make eye contact is just that, an admission of your keyboard warrior fantasy. I’m quite happy in my life, other than the fact that I’m aware genocide is occuring. This thought is slightly tempered by knowing that you’re going to Hell if you keep this up.

Bless your heart you foolish moron.

I hope Bibi is paying you enough for God to look the other way to your crimes. Your best hope to avoid eternal damnation is reincarnation by tring again. You should look into Buddhism instead.

We’ve spent 4 months saying it’s too much.

Drop this stupid facade unless you’re willing to back shit up.

Your complacency is transparent and will be punished when the guard changes.

Everyone pay attention and witness the willingness of your leaders to help you. When someone comes for you, you’ll receive the same level of support.

Decide to change your leaders to someone who cares.

Wow how did you type that out with Putin’s cock so deeply in your mouth?

If this is Russia’s efforts at controlling the message, it’s very obvious their best and brightest are dead and they need literal 60iq idiots doing the work.

Isn’t it funny that Russian men like this are so pathetic and their own women refuse them, so they know the only pussy they’ll feel in their life is from a helpless baby. Sad.

Slava Ukrainia!

Good news! Your papers are in the mailbox komrad, it’s your turn to fulfill your patriotic duty and become Ukranian soil! Just like your drunk father and baby-raping brother before you. Your mother is so proud!

Lots of people here say Proton, but I’d also consider selfhosting my email on either a home server or the cloud, whichever meets my criteria for redundancy to stay online vs cost

The photos I take on my cellphone are instantly catalogued, scanned for metadata, and synchronized with my gallery. The app then gives me fun photo displays and reminders of my past daily.

I do nothing but take photos and pay a small fee.

I’m particulay looking for.the functionality of Google Photos, not just a cloud storage solution but a photo catalogue integrated with my camera among other things. Does Proton offer this?

I wonder if this correlates with my recent desires to de-Google my life. I’m steadily growing less happy about daily using their services and them holding all my info.

I’m open to suggestions for cloud photo storage/management on par with Google Photos if anyone has some. I’m looking into FOSS but would rather pay for the service in the long run. These days I’m too busy to learn to be an effective server admin and keep up with the technology.

I don’t have a lot of sympathy for any of the idiots that buy these idiotic things.
