@susankayequinn @augieray the problem is that the same representatives that voted against the aid later show up when the aid is distributed, and say: look, we are helping. Or Texas Republicans advertising: "the state is broken, we are the only ones who can fix it!" After being in charge for 20+ years... Voters fall for slogans, not for facts...

@maffia @AnnieBuddy @gerrymcgovern for whom did GDP as a measure work? When we look into more details, the counties with the highest GDP do not have the happiest people, and they do not have the healthiest people. And the results of that focus on money is a slightly boiling planet.

@stux fun detail, a big part of the high power hobby rocket motors are made in Canada... They all will be hit with a 25% tariff. (We can fly insanely big hobby rockets here in the US)

@Nonilex ok, there is a misunderstanding here. The milk still will be tested by laboratories. But the laboratory that tests those laboratories for "proficiency" (skill and accuracy) will close (temporarily?). In other sciences these also would be called accreditation or reference laboratories. Need to dig in a bit more.

@futurebird once these market places were designed to show you the best result for your search. These days the top results are paid for ads, pay per sale, another 15% of sales price to the platform. And the ads target similar terms broadly. People seem to make money with this ... Enshitification everywhere.

@futurebird I absolutely agree. My little business still sells on Amazon, without ads, but I am reducing that rapidly. Now enough people know about my website and the competent support they get there.

@futurebirdThe payment processor I use on my webshop started offering these payment plan things about a year ago. I was surprised, went in, turned it off. Then a few weeks ago they changed the checkout process, and bang, it was back. Even though I explicitly switched it off for my site. I had to dig in and find two more toggles. It is gone now, but they are pushing it hard. It must be incredibly profitable for them. @DrHyde
