Capitalism just hasn't gone far enough.

Soon parks will have locked gates and an entry fee so they can monetize trees while they are still alive.

Most trading these days is probably just AI and algorithms. They see a positive headline and starts making buys or selling stuff if it's negative. It's all a money printing machine for the rich and a casino for the poor.

Hello,

I know each artist would put quiet a range to their prices for various works but I was just thinking this morning how awesome it would be to have a mural done on our front fence.

I have no idea what such a thing would cost though, like not even a general ballpark number. $2k?$20k? More?

Just looking to see what sort of number people throw out so I can either pursue it further or just forget about it right off the bat. Also don't want to insult someone when I approach them and be like "So $50 ya?"

Not sure if there's a generalized $lsw ft type thing people have but it's a 8' tall black corrugated fence, about 120' long split by a driveway in the middle. I assume prices would vary on the design so let's say maybe just a forest scene or something,like you would see on electrical boxes in the city to hide them.

How long before people start pretending to be ICE to basically break and enter into homes to rob people? Not like they can fight back, or even question things, or have due process, if someone in an ICE vest shows up at your door.

Why is it that fast food thinks it can charge for sit-down restaurant prices nowadays?

Why can't we just get rid of gendered restrooms altogether?

Just have a room with fully enclosed rooms for a toilet and then a common area for the sinks. Get rid of those stupid flimsy walls with cracks everywhere and two feet of space beneath the door and just have a bunch of individual rooms with a toilet in them. Guys can pee in a toilet, they don't need a uniral.

My PC constantly freezes if I'm not playing a game or have a game running.

✅ If I'm playing a game, it's fine.

✅ If I have a game running in the background while doing other stuff, it's fine.

❌ If I leave my PC while playing a game and the lock screen pops up, it will freeze.

❌ If I do anything other than gaming, such as browsing the web or digital art, PC will freeze.

❌ If PC goes to sleep overnight, it will freeze.

The frozen PC will typically show no error code and display will show "no input" until I hard reset.

If I hard reset, it often won't successfully turn back on unless I move the mouse while it's resetting, otherwise it will freeze again on the windows loading screen.

Sometimes I will actually get a blue screen with the error code of DPC_Watchdog_Error or something like that.

Anyone know where I should look first to try and fix this? It's been happening for weeks now and it's driving me crazy. I can't figure it out.

I would settle for something that simply turns the screen black and turns audio off whenever ads play. I don't care if YouTube gets paid for it, I just want to decrease the value of ads and prevent myself from seeing them.

My top company that I will never give another dollar to is Adobe, as they forced me into a 1 year "contract" with a $200 cancellation fee after forgetting to cancel their one month discounted trial in time.

Other companies for myself include Dell, HP, and Canadian Tire.

What companies will you never give another dollar to?

What happened that put them on your blacklist?

Just trying to check "unread messages" despite no notifications indicating there are some, just to refresh the inbox and make sure there's nothing in limbo before notifications appear (not sure how the technicalities work).

If there are no new messages the app crashes. Can make it crash multiple times in a row. Works fine if there is a notification and unread messages present.

Lol

Literally the only time I use reddit now that my 3rd party app got fucked by spez is when I Google a problem and reddit pops up as the answer.

Will I ever go to reddit and search for my issue? Hell no because their search function is absolutely useless.

What is more infuriating is the dog's leash doesn't look like it even has enough length for the dog to lie down.
