I have a birth bath I don’t ever replace the water in. Its like a shrub to me.

They misattribute monetary policy that bids up home and asset values using cheap debt and facilitates massive bailouts with federal government policy. The CPI doesnt include asset prices so cheap debt can flood into asset prices without slowing down the devaluation of their salary, it also does subjective inflation deductions to goods based on perceived quality changes, and excludes much of the shrinkflation thats happens to goods and service quality.

Something as basic like getting support for a flight is now talking to a chatbot with perpetually larger than expected call volume, you pay extra for seating, you pay extra for baggage; and your seat is so small now you also may as well be standing. Free range chickens used to just be called chicken, and eggs could be eaten uncooked since they werent swimming in ecoli, but according to the CPI you’re significantly better off now; so the nominal value of a boomers house is now worth significantly more due to all this perceived wealth.

Its boring. You open a web browser or Steam, you do a thing, you go to sleep.

Well its not for no reason. Its so they can sell DRM.

The further you get from the gold standard the worse life you’ll have. Though you might have more social media and gadgets you’ll have a smaller house and worse quality food/services, as everything is financialized through debt in a futile attempt to force the elderly who own all the assets to consume every greater amounts, as automation progressively decreases the costs and companies find more advanced ways to shrinkflate products.

You used be able to run Linux apps too, but they pulled it all back because they are only good at creating bloatware.

I do Ghostfolio for my stocks. Though I paid for it to support development, its quite cheap.

Umbrel, Cosmos Cloud, Caprover, Yacht, Dokku, there’s a billion of these things.

Its the business cycle. Smart companies are slowing production.

It seems like a buggy mess to me.

Europe doesnt want federated services, they want censorship.

Saying that oil production lowers emissions by displacing coal will be called climate misinformation, saying immigration needs to be lower due to a housing crisis will be called hate speech, using Bitcoin instead of the digital euro will be called terrorist financing. They’re already arresting people who do something as benign as retweet things, its a slippery slope.
