The free music with Amazon Prime has gone full Nazi. When you choose "Your Favorites" it plays a song or two, then injects something new. You don't like it so you skip that tune and it then injects another song which is not a favorite either. So you skip that tune also. At a certain point it will announce 'Maximum number of skips" and it will no longer allow you to skip songs you don't want to listen to.

I'm sure it's part of some woke bullshit. DEI can DIAF.

42 The tech company layoffs to me seem more like the Christmas retail hiring. They have a busy time, they need to hire more employees to cover the business, then things slow down to "normal" again.

So, now what do you have the employees do?

It is intentionally inserting music from African-American artists into playlists. But not the ones I want to listen to. I like a lot of jazz, and AA artists are well represented in that category of music. But a lot of them suck and I don't want to hear them. They have taken away freedom of choice in the matter.

It's this constant drip, drip, drip of loss of freedom in search of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) that pisses me off. I still have the choice to 'vote with my feet' which I intend to do.

I can say from experience that Spotify makes recommendations on your musical taste and doesn't go down the Woke rabbit hole. This applies to their radio playlists too whether it's free or paid. Plus there's Spotify connect functionality is built into something like every AV receiver on the planet. If you're not familiar with Spotify connect, it allows you to cast music right to your amplifier and run it through your home stereo. It is pretty fantastic.

60 It's probably just reverting to "whatever is the most popular right now" because you're not giving it any likes or favorites to work with. I don't have any issues with streaming services, free or paid, playing things way out of genre. Also, most streamers have a settings page where you can open up or restrict how adventurous the auto-gen playlist gets.

61 Layoffs do have one concrete impact. Pfeffer’s research has found that layoffs literally kill people — by increasing the risk that someone will die by suicide and by levering up stress, both among people laid off and among those who remain. Layoffs may also reduce productivity among those who remain employed.


Of course. You can't lay people off, they might kill themselves! You can't misgender them, they might kill themselves! You can't take away their 3 hour morning coffee break, they might kill themselves! It is a hostage situation, except these gen z's put the gun to their own heads.

63 Also says layoffs don't boost productivity among the remaining employees.

You get a solid 45 minutes of work per day out of 10,000, lay off 3000. You get 30 minutes of work per day out of 7,000, the other 15 minutes is spent whining about how much extra work they now have.

When I came across that passage in the article, I thought these tech companies need to start laying off more people thus increasing the odds that the gene pool will get cleaned a little quicker. I'm coming to the opinion we need a gulag for Gen Z followed by years of exile to Eastern Nevada.

70 Hey, all,

It's getting so I cannot watch the early morning "news" shows locally. All I care about is weather and traffic, of course, but they insist on giving me newsreaders the size of the Titanic. The CBS outlet has an attractive slim redhead who has been doing weather off and on for some years -- but they rarely use her. Instead we get a guy who looks like he belongs on Will and Grace; and the traffic "reporter" is as big as a Nissan Sentra.

Once upon a time, didn't you have to be *attractive* to get on TV?????

Oh, well, I can get the weather from their websites.

Spotify Earnings Stats:

The $100k-plus-per-year club counted 7,800 members in 2020. The $500k-plus-per-year club counted 1,820 artists in 2020. And the $1 million-plus-per-year club counted 870 artists in 2020.

So, in Amazons case, someone has to manually tag a database with a logical (Y/N) as far as diversity for 10's of thousands of musical artists. Then get laid off when finished.

I have a digital music library on a network drive. I use a streaming device called WiiM Mini that is connected to my home stereo. It works perfectly. Spotify can access the same set of music but it it sort of gets lost in the other parts of Spotify's music. I find it more convenient to keep my personal library and the streamers libraries separate.

What's worse is you couldn't understand more than every third word that came out his mouth.

I recently dusted off a record player I bought for my wife's classroom years ago, hooked it up to a soundbar and we listen to that. It's funny how CD's are a continuous about 45 minutes long, but you have to flip a record over after about 20 minutes. First world problem, I know.

But, no commercials, no insertion of little-known 'diverse' artists, just good music with the occasional pop, hiss, or scratch.

Sorry Amazon, when you notice payments to popular artists are less, and they notice and say, "What the hell is going on?" I hope you have a good excuse. You killed the Golden Goose.

When my wife taught in early ed she made sure the children got a dose of the classics. Early in the school year 'The Ant and the Grasshopper' was introduced. This was a private school very conservative until a leftist took over the eighth grade and the parents pulled their kids instead of subjecting them to her. So the school lost two years of tuition. It ended up killing it. I warned them and my warning was not well received.

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as “bad luck.”

Prosperity is not the gift of some rare übermensch doing all the Right Things. It's the result of the boring, unwashed Many being forced to solve their own problems.

Pakistani officials had planned to save on energy costs by turning off electricity across the country overnight. Nighttime has the lowest usage hours for energy in Pakistan, where winters are relatively mild. The problem came when technicians tried to reboot the electric system in the morning, and found out that the infrastructure wasn’t capable of booting up the entire nation’s energy grid all at once. Major cities, including the capital city of Islamabad, as well as smaller cities and towns across the country were left in the dark for 15 hours on Monday, lasting into the night.

You are not quite up to speed on technology used for body cams. No one really wants the technology except the lawyers that are suing the city for some bogus violence charge.

So the city virtue signals and says "we will force officers to wear body cams". The cops sure as hell don't want them because of the criminal shit they do each day, and the low-bidder for the contract to provide and maintain the cams sure doesn't want any cut into the profits, so everyone is happy with very low resolution video with absolutely no video stabilization or light filters added.
