the website whose name makes explicit that its purpose is to profit from the abject worthlessness of most labor shits on its workers

very shocking

This is a WSJ article about "success stories" for an unsuccessful Apple product. There's little more to be said, aside for pointing out that this is how marketing desperation looks like. Somebody needs some "independent" good news to show when asked uncomfortable questions at investor meetings.

Sitting actually is a significant contributor. It's much easier when you squat. Hemorrhoid issues barely happen in countries that don't have sitting toilets everywhere.

If you have to focus on a bowel movement, you're constipated.

IBS irritates my hemorrhoids. My phone gives me something to take my mind off that happening.

Let's skip over the fact that your original post referred to TFS, not TFA. There's also no reference to 0.6g/kg in TFA. There's the explicit reference to 0.8:

and your quote, where the relevant part is

Last time I checked, 0.6 is half of 1.2, not of 1.6, that would be ... 0.8, surprise! - so I'm not even certain what you were trying to prove with that quote?

Maybe take your own advice? from TFS

In fact, 0.6g/kg is nowhere in the summary, the recommended amount is 0.8g/kg.

Especially true when merely reading TFS is hard.

I remember a time when I would've been really excited and hopeful about this. Where the aliens who are supposed to come decide we're not ready for technology?

The maverick CEO promises an entire Silicon Valley techbro cult's worth of people trying to find the guy who did this by FY2026.

Was their URL clownpenis.fart?

not sure what tylenol does to you but I think maybe your bottle is funny

Couldn't you already somehow turn it into ethanol if you hate livers that much?

Setting aside for the moment how this is an obviously stupid and harmful idea, how does this guy have any money at all and why does anyone listen to him about what to do with it after his bank spent several years shredding cash for clearly idiotic blitzscaling scams?

Every president from Nixon onward has used the War Powers Act to attack Americans at some point. Obama did it harder than almost anyone.

It's extremely important for people to understand this: both the Democrats and the Republicans are culpable.

The right and the left are NOT both culpable. The right are the Republicans, the center-right are the Democrats, and the left are absolutely nobody you've ever seen or will see on TV except in a mugshot. The left almost entirely opposed this surveillance from the beginning. Those who don't are frequently the subject of the kind of infighting that makes the left hard to organize, and this nonsense proves that was correct to infight over.

I love that we're almost acknowledging the network state now that it's way too late to really do much about it other than hope their tech is bullshit
