I’ve effectively stopped shopping on Amazon. Almost everything is available by another, smaller website that has way faster shipping since Prime Shipping is a complete farce now.
Even the weird niche stuff can be found somewhere like Walmart. AliExpress, too. Which, at the rate Amazon is going, will soon have faster ship times too.
He is no doubt going to try spinning this into a talking point for his election campaign. The same old “they’re only punishing me because they’re crooked demonrats” and all that shit
Except Chromium can still access the Chrome extension store. The VSCode extension store is not included with the OSS version, which seriously hampers the usefulness of the app.
I made sure not to use my real name this time. I had too much karma when I realized how dumb a move that was.
Sexually explicit content was still available through the paywalled API until yesterday.
It’s because Musk sniffs his own farts and has bullshitted his way into more and more money his entire life. He wanted to morph Twitter into the platform he wanted, but also tried to make it net a profit, by 1) fucking over people/companies to whom he owed money, and 2) trying to squeeze money out of users who had used the platform for free for over a decade.

How many people had heard of Bending Spoons before they bought Evernote? They’re a software company but I’d never heard of any of their apps before, either.
Chapo Trap House was (is?) a far-left/socialist political podcast and r/ChapoTrapHouse was the associated subreddit.
I’m sure someone more knowledgeable can fill in the details. I just vaguely remember hearing about the sub getting banned
The last time Amazon Prime Shipping actually took 2 days for me was pre-COVID. Now, it says 7 days but last time I ordered, it took 9 days.
Last time I bought from AliExpress, it took… 9 days. It just depends on where you’re shipping from and the available shipping options. They’re advertising free 12-day shipping and I’ve had multiple instances of items arriving early.
