Slam not getting enough clicks anymore, people know "slam" means "gentle rebuke." Now it's flay, pillory. At this rate, some time in 2028 we can expect "mild procedural admonition" to be replaced with something like "set off nuclear munitions over home of," eg. "Judge Obliterates Defendant's Entire Hometown With a White Phosphor Bomb in Searing Ruling Over Unpaid Parking Fines." gotta get them clicks

Random idea: a federated alternative to Amazon Prime built from independent shops?

Reply in thread

I feel like you missed the "independent shops" part of the description entirely. And the "[amazon market is] fragmented but monopolized" part. And the "competitor to amazon" part. And, like, the entire gist of the post. And im wondering if you've used amazon recently, or perhaps have been living under a rock for a while to say you feel the payment system is the only centralized part of amazon.
