I can understand why the budding fascist, gun loving racist freak, doesn't support gun control or Black history, but flood prevention and cyber security?
Why does Desantis hate Florida?

Today I discovered https://www.whocanuse.com and I wanted to yell it to the world, but 56 people will have to do.

Sennheiser makes headphones. Some of its models are very pricy, and others are cheaper. This is a common tactic for firms, selling products at multiple “price points” so it can capture revenue from people willing to pay at different levels.

It’s apparently not very cost effective to make all sorts of different models. But then how do you justify selling headphones at different prices? Why would someone pay hundreds more for the same headphones?

Why, just make one version *shittier.* Turns out Sennheiser was inserting a piece of foam into some of its headphones, to deliberately lower the sound quality, in order to sell the same headphones at different prices to different people.

Once you recognize sabotage for what it is, you can’t help but start to see it in every aspect of your life: a deliberate shittiness imposed on us so someone else can earn a profit.
