My grocery store wants to know my BMI
(lemmy.world)
This is a community for designs specifically crafted to make the experience worse for the user. This can be due to greed, apathy, laziness or just downright scumbaggery.
You're consumer capitalism-ing wrong:
"Your BMI has been provided to us by your computer operating system Windows 12. We see you've selected several high sugar items in your shopping basket. We've automatically bundled a required Linked Product discount and added a free insulin starter kit, a book from an unsuccessful weight loss program, and a paid subscription to motivational podcasts from Hostess International. Please note, these subscriptions are set for a term of LIFE and will pass to your heirs as a liability thanks to the 2025 Consumer Freedom Act passed by convicted felon, rapist and second-term president Donald Trump's CPFB (Corporate Financial Protection Bureau) "
Your problems are something to maximize and profit from.
I choose to believe that this is not a typo but that they will, in fact, create some bureau and give it an initialism that doesn't match what it stands for
It's not a typo, that's why it's in italics. They would deliberately rename it to an acronym that would be difficult to disambiguate. They also would pass an act that does the opposite of its name, as has been done countless times.
