I’ve got two off the top of my head:

First is that the design of the USB drives needing to be oriented up or down was the result of a minor cost cutting choice. The inventor regrets it because it wouldn’t been easy made so that USB drives were reversible.

Second is the abundance of pointless SEO stuff on recipe pages. It would be a cool opportunity for the creator to add a personal touch to the recipe page beneath the recipe, but they pop in first along with ads and suggested links. And they’re so frustrating to navigate that they had to incorporate a ‘jump to recipe’ button.

    This is the thing actually. Ok, yeah, I’m getting fucked up by capitalism, but I live in the west and I can just about live. Yes, I spend 70% of my wages on rent but I can live just about alright.

    If it wasn’t just about alright, more of us in the west would be open to the idea of revolution, and militant left wing groups. I’m not out there doing militant activity.

    What I can say though, is that it has absolutely ruined all of the mediums of media that I enjoyed. Film, music, gaming, sport, etc etc etc, it’s all been hollowed out by capitalism almost completely. Everything is ripping the maximum amount of profit out of you. Everything is low quality, bloated shite. All that was once fun has been ripped apart so that a good film or game isn’t the norm, but an anomaly.

      Don’t worry about being “militant”, the country which causes and benefits from imperialism the most isn’t going to turn around overnight. You know what little things annoy you, so if you want to help, rally people around those. The rest follows from there.

      It’s basically necessary for stonks-up for some shows to die early for tax write-off purposes or other corporate skullduggery while other shows can go on forever and get increasingly bland and tiresome because of the whims of the same vampires.
