I found a bug in the Walmart Spark gigwork platform, but I'm too much of a chicken to exploit it.

If a customer cancels an order after you leave the store, the app generates a return trip that makes it so you can't take another order until you return all the stuff. If they cancel an order while you're inside the store you can't leave with the items because you have to show an "exit pass" screen to the receipt checker at the door. But if they cancel while the "exit pass" screen is still on your device, no return is generated, even if you're outside.

So someone could have a friend or another account(it's really easy to make fake accounts and pay with gift cards), and place orders for expensive stuff like PS5s, switch, whatever and then have them cancel at the right time.

Free stuff if you're brave enough

I'm reading "No More Tears", a book about the Johnson & Johnson company. It's kind of unreal how evil that company is, yet we don't hear much about it.

They were more responsible for the opioid epidemic than the Purdue Pharma. Not only did they fund more of the research that led doctors to over prescribe, they also grew the majority of the poppies used to make them. Far more people overdosed on their fentanyl patches than oxycontin. They also continued creating and selling new opiates as non-addictive, like tramadol and tapentadol, despite knowing this was not true.

They also sold talcum powder 30 years after they knew it was contaminated with asbestos, and at least 15 years after they had evidence that talc itself was causing cancers.

They sold Risperdal despite knowing it was worse than the Haldol it replaced. They created 2 new markets for the antipsychotic, children and the elderly, despite the fact it was never approved for anyone other than those with schizophrenia. More than 1.3 million elderly people died as a result of Risperdal, the vast majority of whom were being drugged by their nursing homes. J&J knew that nursing homes were using the drug to sedate difficult dementia patients, allowing them to get by with less employees.

Was the video the one looking into cars4kids? Because that was a legitimately good video. Cumtown is barely mentioned in it.

Drug smuggling, drug dealing, drug related murders and a lot of overdoses as well.

Fairly predictable outcome when you create psychopathic murder squads and then make them completely unaccountable.

It's funny to me that raw milk was mainly a thing for rich liberals until COVID happened. Then right wingers absolute hatred for public health measures bled over into all the dangerous health quakery.

California should pass a law banning arsenic in cheeseburgers.

She has diabetes, but that's not a death sentence, especially when you're wealthy.

From Google Translate:

Our suffering in Gaza was to travel as if we were not human beings. After I returned to Gaza, my health improved until this war happened. After two months, my treatment and most of the medicines in Gaza were cut off. To this day, there is a huge shortage of medicines. During the war and the lack of treatment, the damned disease came back to me. This was one of the reasons I went to Egypt and we paid everything we had to travel there. Yes, we were exploited in a dirty way, but there was no other solution. When we came to Egypt, we did not know that life here had become difficult and extremely expensive. Although I was sick, I worked so that I could provide for my treatment. I worked 11 hours for only $2, which was not enough, but there was no other solution. After a short period, I left work because my health condition became difficult and my head was broken because of it. For this reason, I did a cover-up and our house in Gaza was also destroyed and we lost everything. Since the beginning of the war, my friend Muhammad was telling me to do a cover-up, but I refused because throughout my life I had never thought of asking anyone. I felt broken hearted when I did it. I support you, but there is no other solution. Your donations can help me go to Germany to receive final treatment. There, this was my story and my suffering, and most of the suffering of the Palestinian people in Gaza. I want to thank you for your support and assistance.

Insurance as a private industry is so stupid. They extract profits to protect people from catastrophic losses, but then when something catastrophic happens, the government has to step in to save the industry. We've seen it with the risk pools that states have had to create to keep health insurers from pulling out of rural areas, with last resort programs for home insurance and flood insurance, the AIG bailout, and the built in bailouts of Obamacare.

Why do they get to collect the profits if they don't cover the risks?

Checking receipts when you leave a store. They have cameras everywhere and they can access my receipt through their computer system. I already paid, this is my stuff, they shouldn't be able to detain me without suspicion I stole something.

I don't raise a stink with the poor person checking receipts, though, because I am not an asshole.

True crime communities become unhinged so quick. They get emotionally invested, posting about how sad they are, or vengeance posting about how the perpetrator should be SA'ed in prison. They start developing parasocial relationships with the people involved, posting memorial collages, etc. They overanalyze every new detail and draw connections between everything.

I used to enjoy following the Jeremy Dewitte case, the serial police impersonator who videotaped himself pretending to be a cop for years. It was fun, but the communities following the case went so hard into analyzing every little detail that they became convinced that everything was a conspiracy. A bunch of "influencers" started making channels pretending to have inside information, claiming to have sources inside the police or personally knowing cops involved in the case.

That's hilarious.
