I just want healthcare and a planet that's not on fire.

Best I can do is microplastics in your blood.

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 12 points 2 years ago

We already have forever chemicals in your blood at home. It’s called Teflon.

What percent cyborg does this make me?

To be fair, Adobe wasn't going to fix either of those problems.

For that, people would need to stop voting for neoliberals first.

[–] davidgro@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

TIL. I hadn't looked up that word before, just assumed it meant 'new liberal' in the USA liberal vs conservative sense, when really it seems to mean virtually the opposite of what liberal means here.

[–] anlumo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Not really. The trick in the US system is that both parties are neoliberal, so there actually isn't a choice. They just differ in social aspects (neoliberalism is purely about economy).

The opposite of a neoliberal within a democratic framework would more or less be a social democrat (like Bernie Sanders).

What steps are you taking towards that goal?

[–] GameWarrior@lemmy.one 59 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What happens when adobe decides to stop supporting this? Are you left with useless waste?

[–] Cyclist@lemmy.world 44 points 2 years ago (2 children)

And how much is the annual subscription?

[–] malloc@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

$69.99/month. $49.99 for every design change.

$999.99 for a 2 year warranty. Only Adobe Technicians can service it.

> Adobe

The clothing will go transparent unless you pay a monthly fee.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

The clothing will have 3rd party ads unless you pay a monthly fee.

[–] Asudox@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Just what I need.

[–] alphacyberranger@lemmy.world 40 points 2 years ago

So if your subscription expires, will it go fully transparent?

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago

While cool, what a waste of everything.

[–] UnculturedSwine@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

Beautiful plastic bullshit

[–] ezchili@iusearchlinux.fyi 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Could we ban that kinda shit for climate change until the planet's unfucked please

(i.e. probably never)

[–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

If it makes money to someone, fuck the planet. We all know how capitalism works at this point.

[–] alienanimals@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Adobe's CEO Shantanyu is a greedy bastard.

[–] philodendron@lemdro.id 7 points 2 years ago

My pencil case wore it better

[–] ChillCapybara@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 years ago

Just in time for Halloween. Let’s all get this dress, make Rorschach masks and terrorize CEOs.

[–] malloc@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Not very practical. How do you clean this thing? One drunk white girl night and that thing is headed to the landfill

[–] zerofk@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

You want me to wear the same thing twice? Why do you hate me?
