You, I like hate you.

“Basically.” Close enough. All they’re doing is administration, all the logistics and fulfillment is handled by someone else.

This is what happens when the people in charge of everything are entirely separated from reality.

The Chinese design-manufacturing-retail pipeline isn’t like what it is in the West. There aren’t nearly as many “bespoke” products made for a single company.

That’s not how it works. Factory makes Thing. Anyone who wants to resell Thing buys it from the factory and labels it BRAND Thing.

The manufacturing environment in China is different. A lot of products are made from an existing design, then anyone who wants to sell those buys them from the factory.

The weird “brand names” are basically drop shippers. People buy Thing, send them to Amazon’s warehouses, pop a storefront.

Don’t hate the player, hate the game.

Ffs you don’t do that shit from your own computer. You use a zombie.

You know, I’ve been doing emdash and “not A but B” for a long ass time. The fucking bot got it from me, and I’ll be damned if I’m going to give it up without a fight.

31 comments in 16 months, you ain’t kidding.

We have no idea how many lurkers, with registered accounts or not.

I knew you knew that, my comment was more for the passers-by who may not even be old enough to remember that it was a Colbert quote.

Colbert used the term in a more traditional sense, as opposed to how it’s sometimes used now as an insult by harder leftists.

Reality has a liberal bias.

Class action for unilaterally modifying the agreement about feature access after the fact and to the detriment of the consumer.

I mean, strictly speaking yes, but that’s like saying your quartz watch is a computer.

I’m just here to watch it happen at this point. It’s not going to get better for the proles without civil unrest at best.

People go on the internet and just lie?

People do really stupid things for attention.
