Two Live Nation Entertainment Inc. executives bragged about the high fees the company charges fans at its venues, joking in internal messages that the company is "robbing them blind" and that "these people are so stupid" that "I almost feel bad taking advantage of them." In a series of chats from 2022, Ben Baker and Jeff Weinhold, two regional directors of ticketing for Live Nation amphitheaters, boasted about their ability to raise so-called "ancillary fees" - like parking, lawn chair rentals and VIP access - and still get concertgoers to pay for them. In one exchange, Weinhold gloated about raising VIP parking costs at a Virginia concert venue to $250. "These people are so stupid. I almost feel bad taking advantage of them," Baker wrote, adding later, "I gouge them on ancil prices."
Oh.

Oh hell yeah, now I'm really excited
The only thing that's delayed me is the sheer work of migrating; there's a lot of stuff I made back in the day that was very forward-thinking, but never got to shine properly.
Now I have a chance, but there's so much of it the weight of the work is overwhelming even though the platform is great.
I moved over to Streamelements from Labs years ago because one of their employees was willing to help me code a custom setup; I appreciated all the work he put in, but it still has degraded badly and doesn't work right.
I just wanted AND statements for my alerts.
I'm moving to streamer.bot asap.
Tanooki's new Jinjo model and animation for BKGRR. If anyone knows how to resolve UVWarp export from Blender to Unity, I'd appreciate it! #BanjoKazooie
Damn, I've only just found out about this.
How are the mechanics looking compared to the mainline Banjo games? I never even knew about Grunty's Revenge until long after the fact, so I don't know how the gameplay (conceptually, not literally) compares.
Honestly it's bizarre seeing you complain about this in 2026; not because you're wrong to, but because I can't believe I'm seeing the same complaints I saw when I was a teenager/college student. You'd think people would grow up; apparently only some of us did.
4chan metastasized into the public discourse because the people currently running things literally radicalized themselves by listening to people who grew up on it.
I wish I was exaggerating, but Elon became a Nazi because channers were the only ones who would tell him he's cool and funny.
Alternative offer: if you're ever up in Seattle, I'll buy you a beer/drink of your choice.
But reading them all made me laugh even harder
Today IS a good day

Okay but that's really convincing tho

One of the reasons I'm focusing so hard on cleaning and rearranging my office is I actually want to feel like I can show my community it and be proud of it
There's a lot of pitfalls and negativity in content, but if's always nice when you remember there's plenty of ways it can be used positively
"Resonance" is a good one, I think.
Fair point, sorry for the confusion. I was mostly looking for good alternatives as handing all my data to Google sickens me at this point.
Not possible for many situations where I HAVE to email people, like my accountant. I get that you're adamant, but there has to be a "best you can do" option where it cannot be avoided?
What email client would you suggest as a replacement?
My family name is actually Ruthenian; they juat happened to end up on the Slovakian side of the border after the empire split up following WWI
In some of the best news I've gotten in ages, I heard back from the law firm in Bratislava I contacted last year; they found my great-grandfather's birth records. I have an extremely strong case for claiming citizenship via ancestry, giving me dual citizenship.
Now I gotta find 9,500 Euros lol
Sub so cramped we looking like a can of sardines
I sometimes wonder what a study would show of the correlation between profile pics and followings for people with shitty views.
Like, Grimmz cute little pfp has gotta have a noticeable effect. If he had to to put his real, retired reddit moderator-looking self up, it would not go NEARLY as well.
