Hey, thanks for that solid detective work. Also, “I’m just matching moles” is a great excuse to have on hand when the wife walks in on you ‘investigating’.

sugarfoot00@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Private Equity, Public Harm: Tracing the $15 billion health bill of air pollution from select private equity-backed fossil fuel infrastructure in the United StatesEnglish1·24 days agoPrivate equity really is the last step in late stage capitalism, isn’t it? When the profits have been wholly privatized and the externalies wholly dumped on the public will the cycle be complete. We see this with oil and gas assets all the time- as a well or production site falls out of favour by a large oil company because they are unprofitable under their metrics, those assets are sold to smaller, leaner companies that can make a profit on them. Right up until they are owned by the smallest, shadiest companies that ring out the last few dollars before abandoning the asset altogether and declaring bankruptcy. And then who gets left holding the bag on the cleanup of that orphan well? You and I. There is nobody left to hold accountable.
Because explicit or not, we expect governments to backstop this activity. And when it all goes wrong, the fingers get pointed at the government for not properly regulating the activity in the first place.

Sounds like they need the shit slapped out of them.
Maybe they should just take the advice that we’ve been giving to women and minorities for the last 100 years and tell them that if they want to succeed they should just fucking work harder at it.

sugarfoot00@lemmy.cato Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex now want to SELL your personal dataEnglish24·2 months agoOne of the security upsides to plex is that any number of people can log in with the same credential.
That means that while Plex can harvest information- what account, what’s being watched, IP address, device and player identifier- It doesn’t know who to attach that information to. So you can get dozens or maybe hundreds of users polluting the same account with watch information. Less useful information to be sure.
