Back in the 90s before the world was on the Internet, it wasn't so bad, society generally wasn't involved in this hyper advertising world, but now that society lives online everyone is affected.
Yeah, but the scams were everywhere and it was so hard to look them up. Hard to verify how much of a scam something was.
Every magazine was full of scam ads, church ladies run scams like crazy selling crap to people at church... it's everywhere even without the Internet. But now, at least, we can look it up, make it public how obvious it is a scam, and hold the platform accountable for supporting it.

I'm so funny:
coworker: Why can't we just get a windows back here? I'd love to be able to look outside.
Boss: Because they're treating us like mushrooms- keep us in the dark and feed us a bunch of shit?
Me: Dude, your Surrounded by Windows. There's at least 30 right here on these two tables. Just because it says Microsoft on it, doesn't mean it's not a window.:smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:
I thought "no he's not going to say it surely?" but he did.

trying to find an intel based, 14", 128GB SSD, 4GB laptop for under $700 for a school.
Do the AMD CPUs work OK or do you get weird buggy things happening with them every now and then??
Not the A series. Ryzen is glorious but I don’t think there’s any available under $700AUD
Ah, so the A6 and A4 or whatever they are crap. Is that right???
I had some Acer things with i3s lined up by they went up about $AU100

What is the benefit of using the locker?
I've always seen the option, just never considered it.

Get something delivered in the inner city in the middle of the day while you are at work.

Its a lot better than getting your package stolen from your porch.
The one that I used is at a 24/7 gas station.
Plus you can use them as drop off too. -
