about Uber itself here. But as some minor trivia about Manchester: the "Man" comes from "Mamm", meaning "breast", referencing a small breast-shaped hill that used to be located in what's now the Castlewood district (it's since been lost).

The name of the city basically means "Tit Fort".

I suppose at least they didn't ask AI to fix it as well. Although who knows how many contractors are using AI to do their jobs for them now.

Years back the company I worked for had a contractor who did PCB layouts. He was crap at it too, and I'm fairly sure he just used the auto-router for everything. Caused no end of problems which went away when I started doing the PCB layouts myself.

The problem with resorting to piracy is that they think we are rejecting their prices, which they think they can combat with more ads and tighter security.

If we are in fact rejecting their bad customer relations and bad business practices and bad products regardless of price the only way to send that message is to not engage with their products or their businesses.

Some things are not worth stealing.

At this point, it really doesn't matter what they think. By adding more security and ads, they're just forcing more and more people to the alternative, which is piracy when you're running a media cartel where everyone is in cahoots.
