Has Amazon also imposed shipping surcharges? I don't buy from there, so I don't know.

I saw this news about the 8% USPS surcharge last night and wondered whether it is a further ploy to kill the USPS by making Amazon more competitive.

Amazon uses USPS and also delivers for them. Is the USPS charging the 8% to Amazon as well? Or, did Bezos get a special deal to undercut the USPS?

TIL it's possible to do a tour of Amazon's Ravenhall DC.

You definitely shouldn't book a heap of tickets and then not show up for the tour. Definitely do not do that. That would be wrong.

Paul Kingsnorth argues technocratic civilization is not merely misguided but malevolent. Blame "the Machine"

Paul Kingsnorth’s critique of technologized modernity is frustratingly broad. That doesn’t mean he’s wrong.

I’m trying to get away from #Ring because, you know, #surveillancecapitalism, but it takes time and money to replace cameras. I’m working on it.

But in the meantime, I got notifications that “a person is leaving the house” and “a black car is leaving the driveway”.

These have more detail than usual, so I looked into it (see pictures). Some of these were already toggled on automatically.

Meanwhile in the news; a few dozen men are trying to destroy/own the world and we're letting them.

I say men, because they're men.

In other news, what's your favourite brand of axe?
