Amazon to introduce ads on Prime Video in 2024

This isn't even really normal entshitification, they added videos and some music cheap Spotify knockoff to their fast delivery flat rate. Nobody asked them to.

Then they slowly raised the price, essentially locking everyone that just wanted free fast delivery into a video streaming service and kept increasing the price.

They did this to force existing subscribers into their "new" business idea of a video streaming service, when they couldn't yet compete with the competition back then. Good news for them, their competitors are shit now.

Now they can include advertisements in it too and add more expensive advertisement free tiers. Essentially increasing the price again, but hiding it so people can't ask for subscription fees back in Europe.

Do they really think most people have forgotten they just wanted a fast delivery flat rate? They will never offer their delivery flat rate without video and all that stuff again, only if a legislature would force them.

What's your dream job?

Where is the line here? Art, music or writing fiction? Anything that isn't needed to keep 20 people alive? Or are we talking a society that is more than just surviving? Want to keep people tired and dirty, that's a good way make them shut up and submit I guess. I'm making my own commune, with black jack and hookers.

I'm significant

Most of the universe is empty, most of the stuff that isn't emptiness is called matter. Most of that matter is dead.

But you're alive, right now. In time for looking at memes on the internet. In perspective regarding the universe, you're rare, much less common than stars. Feeling insignificant is like galactic imposter syndrome.
