Isn't getting to a monopoly the ultimate capitalist goal? Grow until you corner the whole market. So if that winner happens to be the government's "insurance"... Peak capitalism.

Yeah. You get to jump the queue for elective / non-critical stuff. And even if the surgery is in the private system it's usually the same doctor. I had a pretty serious surgery done, and it was in private hospital, but the same doctor does 2 days private and 2 days public every week.

I dunno. I've read Animal Farm and those pigs were up to no good.

Only in the USA. Which is only part of North America. The world is a big place.

Also maybe construction companies etc who build the data centres... They don't care if the centre is ultimately profitable... They're getting paid now.

Cursor just added this too. Some auto mode which is "safe" because of some sandbox bs.

Took me 10 mins to find how to turn it off. And they keep trying to sneak it on again.

At least twice a week I have to cancel it when it asks to run something which will fuck things up.

I was there for Windows Me. Even Windows 95 I don't think people today would believe me how often it blue screened or had to be rebooted. Multiple times per day.
