Same. I just kept diluting the liquid with 0% nicotine until, months later, I realized I didn't even want to vape any more.

The enshittification of streaming has pushed me towards watching old series like this on DVD, and I've been enjoying it.

Utilize, when they mean Use.

Meanwhile when I turn off Bluetooth on my iPhone it says "for the next y hours" and there's no option to turn it off permanently.

Yep. My fam does the same thing.

I wish work profiles were more separate. My company's work profile ended up locking me out of my phone (including the personal profile) and forced me to wipe and start over with it. They disabled fingerprint unlock and required my unlock password to change monthly, and I got the periodic "you have to change your password NOW" notice while plugged into my car with Android Auto. I couldn't enter a new password and the phone never unlocked again.

I know, probably a super rare set of circumstances, but I'm not going to allow my work to root my phone again. They can buy me a phone if they need so much control.

Yes. Most people stop making more when they have enough.

People who don't stop are already broken and corrupted. They have nothing better to do. No better idea. No other desire. Than to accumulate more. It's degenerate, sad, to keep wanting more, to feel that hunger when it is already satiated. Like a rat addicted to cocaine, still pushing itself to push the button for more and more.

They don't care. They're just turning around and repeating your lies to whatever advertiser is so stupid as to believe their demographic sales pitch.

Hurt them by not using it. That's the biggest number that feeds their machine.

I'm somewhere else but have kept Amazon in the back of my mind as a possible next place, partly out of curiosity to see what it's like from the inside. The culture has some fun elements. No longer. This moves them out of the 2nd tier and into the 3rd, and honestly I'd wonder about anyone there who's not chained to a visa.

Thank you, that seems a lot more likely than either one of us being secretly adopted by our aunt and uncle.

Phones ruined Burning Man. Their cameras make people tourists, and their onsite social media precludes immediacy.
