The Information Reporting …
Reddit’s Tumble Uh-oh. Reddit’s dream ride on Wall Street has come to an abrupt halt. The stock tumbled 11% on Wednesday after a research firm published a report saying the stock should trade at about half its current levels, Bloomberg reported.
Me : Really? Stunned I tells ya. Stunned.

📸 I walk by this sign a lot. So finally popped into the store to enquire about renting an electric bike for a week - $99 seemed bargain.
Nah - we don’t do them that cheap.
But your sign says … showing him
Oh yeah - old sign - been meaning to update it - we can do one for you for $300.
(Which is still not a bad price in all honesty ($200 US) - good way to try the idea out.)
I walked off.
I was walking by again a yesterday - the sign is still there.

It’s rhetorical folk.
Just tickled my funny bone - because of course it is TRUE.
Customer Loyalty Means NOTHING To Nord.
I used NordVPN for around 5 years. My subscription was up for renewal. Their charges seemed to be on the high side, so I had a look around and landed at Proton at the recommendation of a microblogger (sorry - can’t recall who) - signed up and very happy.
Since Nord lost my business, they keep sending me emails and almost every time the price goes down again.
This price is less than I was paying before and definitely less than I am paying Proton - BUT - had they given me a loyal customer - this price from the beginning I would never have looked around.
Instead it seems loyalty is worth nothing - only ‘new’ customers deserve a ‘good’ price.
Sticking with Proton.

This very much resonates with my My People First thinking. 🔗 via Stowe Boyd - essentially - when you hear ‘the powers’ talking about how people are their most important assets and blah blah blah - would be interesting to learn how they really sit against this list/
Bowie - It wasn’t just his music that was ahead of its time.
Started watching a new series on Netflix. First episode definitely has me hooked ,,, though it seemed that I knew the plot. So, looked it up. Of course I knew the plot. It was a movie from a 5(?) years ago. A very good movie actually. But different as it was, the connections were tight - even down to the directorial style. It was if the TV dude was emulating the Film dude … 🤦♂️ similar! Identical. It was the same director - Guy Ritchie - I do love me some ‘Guy’.
Turns out that he made the movie and then turned around and said - right them let’s do a TV show. It’s going to be good.

And of course fussing with only 🖇️ one change is never enough - now I am onto blogrolls - very much like the OPML import. Thankyou @manton
It seems that ‘microhooks’ are the key - every journey starts with a single step … etc
