Never ever trust a corporation. In case of Adobe, they don’t give a shit about your creative work. That’s not what they are in business for. They are in business to increase revenue and reduce expense, by any means necessary. Just like all corporations. Their customers are but a product for them that they can manipulate how they see fit. Capitalism demands profit over people. Never trust a corporation.

A Wells Fargo spokesperson told Bloomberg that the company “holds employees to the highest standards and does not tolerate unethical behavior.”

Says an unethical piece of shit corporation that secretly opened millions of unauthorized accounts of their customers to collect bogus fees, appease their shareholders and financial status.

Were the executives fired? No. Were they jailed for financial fraud? No.

Embrace by creative side even further rather than creating for food and roof and thus limiting my ability to supply and demand.

No one is going to opt-in to having screenshots taken of their activities on the OS. If no one opts-in then it will hinder Microsoft’s original plan of collection such data for copilot. Along comes the new marketing language to soften the approach and they still collect data.

I share this sentiment, however, you are talking about the system wide change. This is a long-term solution or a mid-term with revolution. I am talking about in the context of the current social and economical environment where no such system exisit. First there needs to an effort to more towards eliminating human labor for the benefit of the people BEFORE human labor is eliminated. Corporations and the rich do not care about the former. We cannot fall into this trap. AI and autonomous machines can be great for society as long as it is not at the cost of the working class. Technology is there or fast approaching, but society is not, policies are not. Corporations are.

I admit, it’s very impressive and cool to see in person, but at what cost? This particular instance has taken away someone’s job. There is no human remotely controlling it. Now imagine how many of these are currently out there and will be deployed in near future? For each one there is someone’s income being taken away. Sure, we can argue that this autonomous machine has create jobs becuase, some had to build it. Yes, it’s true, but those hired to manufacture are fraction of the lawnmowers needed to cut grass not one but throughout the spring had summer seasons. In a broader context, this is becoming an issue for many low skill jobs and essential jobs. (i.e. self-checkouts at fast foods and other retailers, security posts in airports, malls, etc.) Look up Amazon Digit to see what amazon is up. While many will find it beneficial and this is really hurting the class that needs the money the most, needs the health benefits that comes from there income.

Thanks for sharing. Sounds like you got a nice setup.

How did you land this job and what country are you in?

Thanks for your input. I was also curious about the legality of reselling those review units.

Yes, I remember that goof up

This sounds like you are depressed. My suggestion, stop consuming the type of information that is affecting your mental health. This is out of your control so stressing about it will only hurt you. You cannot control what is out of your control. Second, see a therapist and meditate. The world will go on for better or for worse.

What ads are you referring to? I gave Galaxy S 23 Ultra and I’ve never seen any ads in the OS.

I have started using Yandex recently and so far, it is decent, but no different than DDG. The minor annoyance I have is that some links and text are in the Russian language.

When will Sony be sued for stealing their customer’s legally purchased digital media

Ah, this takes me back to my college times when I scanned textbooks one page at a time at the library because I couldn’t afford to buy one and renting a book was scarce

It’s because of crap like this we as society need to go back to brick and mortar shops. Isn’t the whole point of online shopping is to provide convenience? How is this convenience.

No wonder why eBay has fallen off
