  • There are far too many loopholes for me not to hate companies be they small or large.

    In Australia, “family trusts” are a sure way to write off a good chunk of your expenses (groceries, fuel and so on) while paying yourself a wage. If you really want you can cook the books taking cash sales for yourself too.

    Don’t forget about “taking” whatever you want from the company, and writing that off as a loss.

    Maybe I should hate people, but in a vacuum people are reasonable, logical and honorable. But once we introduce a “well maybe” or an “but what if I were to purchase fast food and disguise it as my own cooking?” my view of people becomes skewed.

    I guess, I wanted to vent about how fucked everything seems to be and that I feel powerless to do anything about it. GameStop as a company probably deserve the rocks in boxes, Amazon deserve them too, all because people are running those companies.

    I’m not above greed, but I’d like to think / feel that I put out more than I take and it seems quite uncommon in our modern society.













  • I’ve seen Intel NUCs hanging from the backs of signage displays in Macca’s when I lived in Melbourne. I guess pushing updates to the menus would be easier. My company used Raspberry Pis in our showrooms - admittedly it was implemented horribly. They all used SD cards which ended up failing due to write wear.

    Interesting about the new models, would be keen to get my hands on one 😅
