That’s the good thing about a monopoly. You don’t have to worry about customers choosing another service.

The retail side is also just a huge ad for Amazon as a company. It’s what everyday consumers know even if it doesn’t provide a huge amount of profit. It creates name recognition.
Friends, Beverly Hills 90210, Seinfeld (and Big Bang Theory as young adult)
In the US: Universal healthcare. Having kids and having to think about healthcare even when we’re not sick or injured is such a mental drain.
I work 2x in office, less if I have a somewhat passable reason to not go in. And I can WFH for a few weeks at a time if I need to travel for whatever reason.
For now. Soon it’s going to be: “Well, Amazon is calling people back, maybe we should, too.”
They are retaining staff by paying more than most other companies, but they also have a reputation for running their workers into the ground by overworking them. Many burn out pretty quickly.
May still cause cancer.
eighty years later, in Germany is still trying to live down their shame
Yet, it seems many Germans are prepared to go down that same road with the AfD.
Because his voters don’t believe any of the points you make about him. Trump is able to dismiss any criticism of him as “fake news.” You can make any legitimate point about him and they will never believe it.
Companies don’t make as much money when it’s repairable. Washers and dryers used to last 20-25 years with a few repairs here and there. But companies weren’t making any money, so they started making unrepairable junk instead.
Not taking risk is one of the main reasons most people never get to truly experience life before it’s over. However, there are situations where taking risk can actually destroy your life, especially when it involves physical danger. Proceed with caution.
Sure, but it’s also hard to bid against a company that we all know the US government is not going to let fail.
I don’t think that’s necessarily true.
Much of Intel’s foundry future is bet on Intel 18A, the company’s next leading-edge semiconductor production process. This “1.8-nanometer” production process will combine multiple Intel innovations including 3D hybrid bonding, nanosheet transistors, and back-side power delivery. Demler says that, if all goes to plan, Intel’s 18A should compete directly with, or even exceed, TSMC’s upcoming 2N process technology.
good riddance to bad rubbish.
Well, that’s the thing. They are kind of “too big to fail” and Intel is too important for the US to let it fail or even get behind the curve.
There’s probably more government money headed their way. Just like there is more foreign government money headed to their competitors in other countries. It might become more of a subsidy battle between governments than a money-making competition between companies.
European countries are also capitalist countries, but they have much better consumer protections and laws. It can be done.
Trump, that you?
Oh, man. This brings me back to my Amiga 500 days. So slow to load, but I loved that thing. Wish I hadn’t sold it.
At its very core, capitalism breeds greed.
Reading your description of the place you live in just reminds me how incredible different people live their lives. Such different lifestyles. I can’t even comprehend living in such a remote place. It’s no wonder that people are divided in almost every way.
