No thanks China!
  • The existence of the article you're literally commenting on directly refutes what you're saying here. Like you're in a thread because of news that demonstrates that the opposite of what you're saying here is actually true.

    If you need more examples - What happened to Facebook after the Cambridge Analytica scandal? They got banned by congress right? They got shut down? The government stopped them from continuing to manipulate the public?

  • 2024 Budget
  • It's not just housing costs and affordable housing availability which are astronomical and non-existent respectively. Most of the industrialized world have socialized healthcare but the US does not.

    In the US you'll pay for health insurance and still have hundreds and hundreds of dollars to pay out-of-pocket for even a simple checkup beyond a yearly physical, which is to say nothing of drug prices.

    Not to say things aren't expensive elsewhere but the health insurance thing is the kicker in the US. You could be making 150k, be paying for insurance and still be beyond fucked by a major health-event.

    That said 150k is a big salary here too, like top 10% of the population. You basically only see this kind of salary inflation in tech jobs.

  • A little gas for the dev(s?)

    Arctic is phenomenal. My go to lemmy client and every bugfix on the 0.4.x release has made me really happy to be using it. Personally I would happily pay a yearly sub for it when it's out of testing.
