Technology@lemmy.world•Nintendo sued by players who say they should get any tariff refunds received by the US governmentEnglish
111·3 months agoHere is the thing. If they win, it’s great for them. However, all the other companies are currently updating their legal documents to reflect that they will get any forms of reimbursement and not be passing them on to the consumer. Not only that, but they are not planning on reducing the price of any of the products. So, even if the tariffs dissappear, they still win.
The only way to win the game is to not play it.
I give this response a B-.

ADHD@lemmy.world•Anyone else have trouble getting meds and feel discriminated against?English
3·3 months agoYes, absolutely. My doctor refuses to prescribe more than a month at any time. So I literally have to go to the doctor physically every month and be drug tested like a fucking felon on parole. Not only that but the state limits how much can be distributed to me. So, even if I got a 3 month subscription the pharmacy can’t fill it.
Not only that, but the office refuses to schedule a reoccurring appointment. Why does that matter? Because the doctor is booked for at least 3 months. So, now my choice is to either stop taking my meds or get them for one month and spend 2 months waiting to get a new prescription.
It’s a bunch of complete bullshit designed to squeeze more money out of me and my insurance company. Unfortunately, there is no way around it.
“Healthcare” in the US is a joke. It’s not healthy or anything resembling care. It’s about stealing as much of patient’s paycheck as possible while trying to avoid malpractice lawsuits. I know this because I work in Healthcare and I have heard the conversations.

Technology@lemmy.world•Mozilla accuses Microsoft of sabotaging Firefox with Windows and Copilot tacticsEnglish
1·3 months agoI don’t think Microslop really needs to sabotage Firefox. Firefox is doing a really good job of shooting their own selves in the foot.
I feel you! Where I live now its like pulling teeth to get my meds. My PCP won’t try different meds because he wants a therapist to prescribe something new. So, I get hit with panic attacks and crippling anxiety. That’s when I can get my meds.
My doc requires that I come in every month to refill my meds. The fun part is that he is booked out 3 months and they refuse to set a reoccurring appointment. So, I end up going months without meds. Even if they prescribe enough to make it through the 3 months, I wouldn’t be able to get it filled because the state limits how much can be filled. Not to mention constant issues with supply shortages.
It just fucking sucks. You aren’t alone.

People are still using Microslop products?
