Imagine a world where we had politicians who understood technology enough to put proper rules and requirements in place, so that big dumb companies would actually be forced to act ethically and sustainably...

Our government here in Denmark is deep in the pockets of the meat industry, specifically Danish Crown. Don't let this fool you. They might approve tax insentives to vegetable farming, but they will never do a single thing that could harm the meat industry for real.

I have a friend who leaked videos about the illegal treatment of pigs on a Danish farm, and that case ended with him having to pay a giant ticket (>20.000€) and the farm paid absolutely nothing for their crimes, except the cost of their in-house lawyer fees. When he reported the case to the state, they just ignored him.

No shit. It feels like you're being scammed when you pay to watch 20 minutes of commercials.

For the past 8 years I have had to disable 'mouse acceleration' after every Windows update. The updates have become more frequent, and the setting to disable acceleration has slowly become buried deeper in the menus. Switched to Linux two days ago and I'm never looking back.

They will tell you it's because of the increase in wages, and then refuse to believe the data when you show them that wages have stagnated.

Are you sure that is correct? Last I read the union demands went down from 46% to 36% over 4 years, and the auto industry offered 20%.

Let's add some babies and teenagers while we're at it. I don't see them represented.
