    Why should they enshitify a service that is printing money with minimal effort? Right guys 🥲.

        Not only do they not understand, they actively don’t care: they have a product-agnostic business process that can convert any type of stable business into a pile of extracted equity and spare parts. They are literally bleeding their own society to death

        At least actual vampires would probably have the good sense not to destroy the breeding stock that keeps them alive.

      Because most of these MBA fucks don’t understand the concept of piracy being a service problem. They have run perfectly fine systems into the ground because they insist on making it infinitely harder to use legit services than to just rip shit off.

        Yeah, the thing about Steam is that buying your game at Steam feels better than downloading it for free somehow.

      Because they could make it print even more money, and make the line go more up for a very short time!

      That looks good on the CV you know.

        Supposedly the answer is inflation. The same profit next year is worth less, so it needs to go up to be the same.

        Of course thats not where most companies stop, is it.

          The thing that pisses me off if that my comp only goes up by 3% but that is failure to a corp.

            Thats interesting, I hadn’t connected those before. I think it would be hard to argue in favor of separate expectations for inflation of wages and the companies profits.

            Like I understand having a stellar year, but the goal is still set the same, and its fine to return tk that baseline next year. Or maybe even doing well one year means we can lower the goal next year, or bank the difference for bad weather years.

            Would be interesting if companies had an interest in the long term like that.
