No she didn't

Ticketmasters strategy from the start has been to become a monopoly, forcing avenues to do business with them or never get any artists at all. Similarly, for artists, if you want to do a concert, it's extremely hard to exclude Ticketmaster if you want fans to see you at all

Fuck everything about this evil company, the C suite belongs in jail

We share Olivia’s desire to keep live music accessible and ensure fans have the best access to affordable tickets. While we can’t require other marketplaces to honour artists’ resale preferences, we echo Olivia’s call to ‘do better’ and have taken steps to lead by example.”

Shut the fuck up, you lying sack of shit. Ticketmaster is one of the biggest reasons we have to deal with impossibly expensive tickets these days, they created a semi monopoly with the explicit goal to squeeze every possible cent out of concert goers. Concert avenues are forced into doing the business with them and them alone, and I could go on for a while.

The company should be disbanded and it's C suite jailed. I'm not even kidding about this statement.

Fuck you, Ticketmaster 🖕

In all fairness, I think kost Russian soldiers aren't there by much choice, Putin loves his meat grinder and has pulled well over a million Russians through it.

Yes, that is a problem that Russians should fix themselves, but still. Any soldiers surrendering should be treated well. Show them they've really been figuring on the wrong side

Don't give up a single meter of land

Require reparations from Russia

Demand all children back

Demand a formal apology for the pain and suffering caused

Demand Putin in jail through the ICC

I just love how Linux is awesome and outperforms windows in just about any metric, and every update is basically making it faster, better, more secure, and more featureful.

I love how easy it has become to get it to run, even when confronting complicated problems

Meanwhile in the microsoft camp, its always been shit, severe known security bugs don't get fixed because marketing goes before everything, even if it means that the US government gets hacked (but don't worry, we pwomise that the CEO wiw now cawe about secuwity!) and apparently M$ literally only cares about shoving security averse AI down everyone's throat with a used plunger.

Sure sure, the AI my install malware for you, but AI, man! It's awesome even though you hate it, even though it'll steal all your data and your first born back to Microsoft for processing. You MUST love it, resistance is futile!

And still people keep going on about how windows really is the best

Meanwhile, I try to type a document in Microsoft Word online, because unfortunately that's is het we still use at work but it keeps randomly and quietly deleting text that I wrote 30 seconds prior. That high quality, of course, is all due to the AI vibe coding that is all the rage at Microsoft now.

To anyone who still needs to hear it: switch to Linux now, get rid of Microsoft nonsense. Linux is awesome, we have cookies

I'd say the UK should be on its knees begging when it comes to anything with Europe at this point
