Easily amused, you might say.
yeah, but now it’s even funnier to read complaints about Swift-plane memes.
At this point, I’m just so sick of every little thing being a huge struggle
Suffering is inevitable. This is the first noble truth in Buddhism. Troubleshooting Linux is Tao.
Imagine this happening today…
“This has been linked with major mass political developments including the Brexit referendum in the UK, and the presidency of Donald Trump in the US”
Bingo.
“No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You got to pay. You got to pay your bills.”

Thanks for the additional info. Sorry - that article I posted was not very well researched - I should have looked for something better, but was just making a point that inequity is still a big problem in a “prosperous” Mexico.
I appreciate you also confirming that working conditions in maquiladoras are accountable to some decent standards, and that they provide additional benefits - overtime pay rates being one of them, which is encouraging to hear - I wonder if that was due to labor unions or not.
Clearly, they are better places to work than many other local options. So for sure, not everything about maquiladoras is negative - and they are certainly not the root cause of disparity in North America. Thanks again for correcting the perception I might have given with that article.

The primary use case is for making sure kids and elderly loved ones are brushing their teeth and keeping the brush charged.

But yeah, the aggregated data is probably marketable somehow - I didn’t check their privacy policies.
Electric toothbrushes are a thing. It’s understandable that the vendors would like a rationale to track usage. Not beyond the bounds of possibility that in ten years it may be impossible to buy an electric toothbrush that doesn’t track usage and try to phone home to report it.
It was nice while it lasted. Moved to MX.
