The last time I bought #coffee was January 3, when I paid $16.98 for a 40 oz. bag of beans, or 42.5¢/oz, for Eight O'Clock The Original Whole Bean.
Today, the same coffee is $20.12 for a 30 oz. bag, or 67¢/oz. That's an increase of 58% in just over 3 months. It is no longer available in 40 oz. bags, at all.

Firefox has long been the most resource-efficient browser I've seen. I can have a ton of tabs open in multiple windows (on Linux) and it used to only get the main process to a few gigabytes of address space and a gig or less resident in memory. When not actively using it, CPU usage was moderate, with the main process using between nothing and 20 or 30%. It was fast and responsive.
And now, it's jerky as hell.
The main process has allocated 16 GB and the resident size is varying between 2 and 3 GB. It'll go down, and then suddenly another 300-500 MB of memory is resident, while the browser is doing basically nothing. CPU varies from 25 to 150+%.
Killing off some of the sandbox processes, the ones that are taking 100+% CPU, helps a little, for a bit, but it keeps getting worse.
We all knew they were dropping their focus on the important stuff by focusing on "AI" bullshit, and this is the result. It'll end up driving me to Vivaldi [1] if it doesn't improve.

Microsoft: AI is great! AI should be in everything! AI is so capable, it can write code for you! In fact, 30% of the code we ship is now written by AI! AI AI AI AI AI AI AI AI AI AI. Line goes up forever. AI AI AI AI AI AI.
Also Microsoft: Here's a trivial little AI helper for Github repos to manage labels on issues, which will happily argue with itself indefinitely, here doing and un-doing the same action more than 5200 times before someone stopped it by closing the issue.

Wonder if it was written by "AI".
[1] Bonus points because the repo is, itself, for an "AI" tool.

How Jeffrey Epstein used SEO to bury news about his crimes https://www.theverge.com/report/822311/jeffrey-epstein-emails-google-search-seo-pr Documents released by the House Oversight Committee shed light on Epstein’s day-to-day, largely via email — including his preoccupation with his Google presence.
They'll do anything to please the "line goes up forever" market "analysts".
Because "Be just evil enough to satisfy the 'line goes up forever' people indefinitely" didn't fit on the T-shirt.

#Hasbro was always going to be a very poor caretaker of #DnD. #TTRPG gaming is done best when it is done with the primary intention of making *a good game*, not with the primary intention of making a *profit*.
Hasbro executives could give an owlbear's arse feathers about what makes a good game or even a good story. All they care about is pushing widgets. #linegoesup
They will kill the golden goose to get at the eggs inside (if they haven't actually done so already). They were always going to.
Neat. So the Paperclip Maximizer is inevitable because in a very real sense it already exists and is wreaking havock right now as we speak. Cool cool cool cool cool.
Why does it seem as if @business made basically a sequel to "#LineGoesUp - The Problem with #NFTs" ?
Because it feels like that...
