That is the problem. Also there is no MRR with those.

It does. But we still have safety stickers and ingredient lists, etc for a really damn good reason.

Amazon issues warning about major change for Kindle users starting next month (goodereader.com)

In a recent communication, Amazon has alerted Kindle users about significant changes set to take effect from next month. The notification pertains to the phasing out of support for sending MOBI (.mobi, .azw, .prc) files through the “Send to Kindle” feature, starting November 1, 2023. This change, as News18 pointed out,...

The devices themselves still can’t process epub though so they still need conversion to … mobi.

Didn’t the government fund the development? So… it’s not like they need so much to recover R&D right?

This isnt actually the first time microplastics have been found like this, but it will be the first we properly study the effects. (uk.yahoo.com)

Having talked to a Doctor friend about this he suggests the only safe way to deal with it is to draw blood, to dispose of it, and let the body recover. He had some concern that some of the plastic was as small as blood cells and platelets so might be too hard to filter out. But I guess research will look at that.

anon_8675309 ,

Good grief. Has it occurred to anyone that maybe microplastics are naturally occurring!?

Eventually, death.

That’s part of it. Another part is middle management can’t function without seeing you. Finally, it’s not worth it to a company to maintain a lease on a building if nobody works there and it’s not easy getting out of those leases.

So don’t. Give your employees tasks and then leave them the hell alone. If they don’t get things done, find a new employee.

If you have to resort to using controversial and potentially misleading advertisements, you suck as a company.

Stop asking for more benefits. Ask for more money.

We need to prohibit corporations from offering any benefit at all.

Universal healthcare, for example, will never happen until corporations are out of the picture completely.

Bullshit.

The ultra wealthy alone basically live in debt. They use debt for everything. That’s one reason they pay virtually no taxes. That would skew an “average”.

Also, mortgages and auto loans would make this way higher for average people.

I forget the name of it, but a number of years ago, there was a startup that wanted to make communication devices for hikers. They could transmit short messages to each other. Anyway VCs came in and asked, where’s the MRR? We’re not investing unless there’s monthly revenue.

It’s all just greed. You can’t just have a device and be good. Investors are constantly chasing the quarterly growth.

It’s disgusting.
