You seem to have forgotten what the C in AC stands for. Not to pick on the person but most certainly their are crap corporations out there like Google who will absolutely fire you for expressing an opinion their corporate marketing team do not approve of ie https://theintercept.com/2017/... and http://www.smh.com.au/technolo... and https://www.youtube.com/watch?... and https://www.youtube.com/watch?... and, well, enough is enough. Whilst I can write ESAD Google and the big shit at Alphabet, no it is not a joke, I mean it, many can not and will suffer consequences for doing so. Google as evil as they come not better or worse than M$ and in the most surprising fashion, consider their exploitative over priced based on marketing nature, much worse than Apple.
There is actually great scope for developing trains but it is not in the trains as much as in the tracks and stations. It is really rather embarrassing for that industry, in they have not done much at all in centuries on improving the tracks beyond a dalliance in monorail. Smarter things, like handling train carriages better. Reducing the time a train spends in stations, running more frequent smaller trains, should all carriages be container based, even passenger, should trains even stop at stations or should carriages just be dropped off and roll in on their own, cheaper train track, how to make much more use of rail infrastructure, should all carriages have engines and be computer controlled, hooking up to conserve energy and dropping off to stop at a station. Going faster seems kind of silly, when you save a half hour on the journey but waste an hour at the station or even days for cargo. I think less focus on engines, screw engineering fantasies and more on what happens in stations will be far more productive for everyone.
Sometimes smart phone and sometimes a piece of dead electronics with the battery removed. I am serious about being able to remove that battery. Checked with Samsung first question I asked, which phones have a removable battery, their response, they no longer have a product with a removable battery and I simply hung up. So the only product in my home with a battery and microphone is a smart phone and it spends more time in another room or switched off, than it does with me. I use that smart phone, that smart phone does not use, control, or own me.
Sometimes retiring is the better option, rather than being a lab rat for some one else's greed. The way this stuff if being run by for profit corporations is pretty psychopathic. Lying on test results, with holding information, hiding poor results, lawyering up to keep bad treatments going profitably for as long as possible regardless of consequences. Not that this treatment is bad but they have done it to themselves, the typical US corporation is simply no longer to be trusted no matter what they claim to do or claim to be, the end result of modern PR=B$. Is it good, is it bad, yes thanks to endless lies from corporations, it is a fucking coin toss. Executives should start paying a personal price for their lies and corrupt decisions in corporations.
The real patent troll is the USPTO. Clearly it is far right psychopathic policy to allow as many patents through as possible regardless of validity, basically the plan a US tax on the rest of the patent. They make money out of approved crap patents, they make money for their lawyers and courts and of course they run extortion schemes for as long as possible tied to bad patents. This is clearly no an isolated incident but reflects a long term pattern of extremely corrupt behaviour by an extremely corrupt government. If any country should have sanctions applied against it, it should be the US, from funny made up money to buy up other countries resources, to invading and stealing those resources and bragging about it and publicly, in your face planning more. You have NATO the North American Territorial Occupation Force whose sole purpose is to take over countries and force their purchase of rubbish from the US war industrial complex, the prime example being the F35 Flying Pig tribute payment, add in privatisation scams to steal other countries essential services and run them into the ground to maximise US profits and whilst economically crippling those countries. So on purpose bullshit patents are just another corrupt US get rich quick scheme. Face it a country that wilfully cheats it's own people in an election and when caught out just screams lies about Russia and ignores that wilfully purposeful corruption of the primaries by the government in power and then the pretend opposition fails to prosecute that publicly exposed corruption of democracy, is quite simply as corrupt as fuck and clearly run by psychopaths.
Most regional loads are from commercial premise to commercial premise. Those trips are really in the tens of kilometres range with an unload time measured in tens of minutes, on balance probably enough to carry over from trip to trip starting with a full charge and finishing with a low charge. Now electricity is way, way cheaper than diesel and commercial property managers have to consider the savings a charging station will provide in fuel cost for deliveries, even when they do not operate the vehicle but simply sell electricity for a discount on delivery charges by the vehicle operator. Far easier to manage within a grocery chain with internal deliveries rather than an external system. Depending on the trailer, a semi also provides a lot of solar panel area as a bonus and it will spend all day in the sun. Only thing, they will need to provide charge connectors at the front and read, as well as on the trailer, to avoid long cables being damaged. You could even have trailers with built in battery packs, so drop off trailer pick up the next charged trailer and away you go.
I am going to be a little tougher, those end users, well, they are poor and poor people do not own houses, they rent them. Now those houses are owned by investors and crappy internet services devalues a house by quite a lot. Best internet to worst internet is now some thing like 5% to 10% drop in property value. Now that loss is being created purposefully by the service provider as a choice to save money, regardless of the losses incurred by property owners (not occupiers, owners). Those owners have every right to consider legal action against those companies provided degraded services which devalue the properties and we are talking tens of thousands of dollar per property. Interesting thing here, is no contract and hence no arbitration clauses and so class action law suit by property owners as a result of the purposefully provision of degraded internet services which in turn devalue a property, due to reduce market access, having to compete with properly provisioned properties with actual high speed internet access. They are choosing to attack the value of peoples assets by purposefully providing degraded services.
How about Intel investors, how do you think they will feel, knowing their asset has been so cavalierly risked because there will be repercussion in the international market. Intel clearly can not be trusted and will commit acts of treason in other countries to serve the corrupt deep state within the US government. Yeah, when you do it in other countries it is far worse, espionage and treason, real repercussions, not to mention the complete destruction of trust. Keep in mind this release of information is being done legally in a foreign country, exposing the criminal activity of the US government, as required by those countries being spied on laws, else those who fail to report it can be charged with a crime, accessory after the fact added to rather serious crimes, espionage and treason. As far as I can tell, according to US government policy, every country so affected should economically sanction the US government, as per US government policy and investigate and prosecute Intel staff involved in those criminal actions.
There is an excuse for not fixing the problem, greed. Dead screen is really bad, I can readily guess the fix, plug in upload device to an board mounted connector to update the system, pretty bloody expensive and of course the scammy bastards are trying to force that cost on the people who bought those TVs rather than pay more than a hundred dollars a go to fix it and it should be done as a call out to the owners premises. Why have they done nothing yet because fuck the customer, they knew within 24 hours exactly what needed to be done and are doing nothing.
More simply put. Drop prices with a cash hoard to support it for as long as necessary to put your competitors out of business and then raise prices to way above what they originally were and profit.
Self driving with zero wireless inputs thank you very much and add in a system verify feature at startup, to ensure no hacking. So multiple systems, rather than an all in one hackathon special, that take you pick of three letter agencies, can hack to drive you straight off a cliff, or into a train or on the other side of the road towards a semi that is also accelerating because it has been hacked to kill you. So self driving, not remote, who the fucks wants to get into a remote controlled vehicle. The Tesla marketing is also pretty clear, autopilot is not installed but the system can at some time in the future be upgraded to autopilot and I am not too sure on that language as to whether or not, that is just a system firmware upgrade without any additional hardware needing to be added or updated.
What I do not, is both the fossil fuellers and existing fossil fuel auto manufacturers will attack Tesla at every opportunity because competitor and psychopathic capitalism. So crappy twisted interpretive articles, are to be expected, that is the norm for modern business. Tesla can of course counter with attacks on fossil fuel vehicles, like warnings not to start you fossil fuel motor in you garage because if you should say faint for any reason, that car will now out and out kill you, you should push you fossil fuel car out of the garage and only start it's infernal combustion motor when it is safely out in the open and of course how about taking a fuel tank, stirring it up and then igniting it and watching how it blows a car to bits, equivalating a fuel tanks explosive potential to how many sticks of dynamite you are carrying. Not to forget the pollution or the fossil fuel wars, mass murder to fill your tank with a horribly toxic product, that can quite readily kill you;D.
What is in it for IA, campaign donations for the next election as a percentage of the tax cheating. Now I understand under law, all are meant to be treated equal, so why do some fuckers get taxed less upon an individual discriminatory basis whilst all the rest of the citizens pay taxes, gees I seem to remember something in the US constitution, how individualised laws were illegal and all must be treated equally but obviously campaign donations over rule that pesky little law when it comes to cheating on taxes.
Forget the kittens, pity the tax payers, they have to pay taxes to protect all that porn, why, just why? When by constitutional law, that protection is against the letter and the principles of that constitution, porn based upon the US Constitution which so many Americans prattle on about, should not be protected by copyright. If content does not pass a value to society test, which under user pays system, the person applying for copyright protection should pay, then that would should under law being denied copyright protection and of course don't apply and don't get it beyond blocking some one else from claiming that it is their work.
Want more privacy, absolutely do not run windows anal probe 10 because if you do, you have already lost. Next up run add ons to control your internet experience, the first up a script blocker to block scripts you do not like especially bad advertiser scripts add to that a cookie control add on to either block cookies from particular sites or make them session only and delete them when you leave.
I prefer to control what is allowed to run and what is blocked. So for advertisers, show me shit ads and you are blocked, just one shit ad advertising crap products or services and that also includes ending up at a bad site, those providing ads services to that bad site and you are done, from there on in. You behave yourself with those ads and fine, they might even be informative.
Google search is becoming nothing but google ads, it is starting to look very much like the old asta la vista and MSN, all you see is ads on first the screen, drop to the bottom and look the fucking arse holes have dumped all ads at the bottom, you now have to try to find the bit in between to see your actual search and the shit fucks did that on purpose to force you to read the ads. Google is just becoming more and more shite, from the YouTube advertiser friendly horse shit to google advertiser search bullshit. M$ would have a chance now with MSN search but they decide to be douche bags with Windows anal probe 10.
Why is it, that old tech companies must go down, to be replaced by new client respecting companies, whom then become douche bag corporatists and must again be replaced. Why the crazy stupid business style, is it an American thing, is that the norm for American business, start small and customer orientated become big and become customer abusive.
Apparently the currently preferred method of 'wax off' is nitrogen, I will not detail it, look it up if you feel the need, just make sure it is not interrupted in the brain damage stage. For people with the extremely disturbing fetish need to kill other people, well, why not practice on yourself before trying it on others;).
The retail problem is easy to fix. Look as a building estimator I had unreasonable clients who would ask for massive penalties, for delays or work quality and so I would simply adjust the mark-up to allow for those penalties to occur. I would win the job and not be concerned for losses because those penalties were already allowed for, if they did not occur lots of profit, if the quote was to high and I did not win the job, meh, at least no risk of major losses (those clients were always arse holes so it was better to lose the job). So sell stuff for bitcoin at retail and bitcoin fluctuates by 30% just straight up add 30% to the 50% on top of the profit margin and just in case add some more based upon how much competition in that market, less competition even higher margin, you have a fish in a barrel market and trade out of that bitcoin for real cash as quickly as possible to limit losses.
From a suckers point of view, compare the imaginary bit coin price to a real currency to see how much you are actually paying for stuff and find you are paying pretty much double, even triple the real currency retail price and the retailer will just say, oh that's the old price, we haven't adjusted it yet and we only do increased imaginary bit coin values once a month, of course decreases are programmed in instantly via a program.
So you can buy bitcoin with retail products at a massive discount, rather than paying for it with real dollars. Consumables work best, so sure illegal drugs but also legal drugs will work (booze, tobacco, MJ in some locations). Want to know the true worth of bitcoin, create a basket of products priced in bitcoin and compare that price to a basket of the same products in a real currency backed by a real countries assets.
How about not looking at styles of grocery shopping but rather than just as the size of a corporation is it too big to safely have in an economy, should limited liability laws end, when capital worth of a corporations is too great, should share holders be then liable for those debts rather than the general public. Why private profits and socialise losses. Once a corporations goes past a billion dollars, should not the share holders be liable for it's debts rather than the general public. Break up or take sole responsibility for corporate debts, those debts being passed out on a per share basis, rather than off to tax payers. Put real hard limits on the size of corporations. Should multi-nationals just be straight up banned, they are inherently evil as far as human societies are concerned, no longer loyal to the society they operate in and nothing more than a source of corruption of democracy, a true anti-social evil.
They need to keep it simple, otherwise how else can they reliably tell if we can be screwed over yet more, without freaking out and stringing them all up. A how far can they go meter, taking everything and leaving us nothing before we rise up and take them down.
Can only really be done in hardware ie they generate the required profits to run from selling the hardware and use the free P2P social network created by the hardware as the sales point for the hardware, done in a smart router with expandable storage space. They don't even have to install all that much on your computer, just access the social network system in the router via a web page, much cleaner and safer as far as your hardware is concerned.
Growing meat cells, has a real problem with pathogens and corporate greed. A whole food like algae is safer in corporate hands, it tends to die real fast or look after itself in relatively clean environments. Grow meat, vulnerable meat without, an immune system and that means a whole host of chemicals to keep it alive, pretty much a whole range of antibiotics, to keep the meat from being infected, anti-biotics they will in turn be fed to us, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..., basically "opposing life", so side affects with loads of corporate PR and lawyer denials are the expected results. Poor people meat, rather than the highest quality food and poor people meat because of the necessary chemicals to keep the franken meat alive and corporate greed driven stupidity always looking for short cuts, this quarters profits and people will last eating it for at least a year.
Note also, algae based and everyone with the right basic equipment can grow it (fish tank in the kitchen, feed the fish and they produce fertiliser), fake meat and only corporate industrial facilities can grow it. Total corporate control over food, obey or starve, another part of the corporate take over. Corporate cash less society, obey or be denied access to anything else. Corporate government, obey or die. The investors, basically the whose who of control freaks, only they know, only their insane levels of greed makes them smart, the billions of the rest of us know fuck all, as far as their egos are concerned (we are just not insanely greedy like them).
An algae steak, grown in clean salt water with reduced chemical input apart from chemicals the algae uses to grow far preferable to fake meat soaking in anti-biotics, hmm, I can just taste those anti-biotic side affects,"opposing life", so tasty (I'll bet none of those "opposing life" chemicals will cause cancer when you eat it every day, just ask the companies lawyers growing or the investors who never eat it).
They are talking a ponzi currency, that they get to create without creating a debt. Currency backed by the gullible imagination of the people who foolishly buy into it. At it's core it is corrupt and as a result it will be managed corruptly. Debt free money, watch it get stolen in bulk by the politicians and corporate backers who create it and than trade it for real money, legally required to be backed by the country of issuance. Why create one imaginary unbacked currency, create hundreds even thousands and you not longer have to be satisfied with being a billionaire you can become quadrillionaire, fuck the trillions.
Not an investigation, a cover up, a pretend investigation. Yep, the pretend ones often take much longer that, ohh look top secrets on a server in your bathroom, well, that's a slam dunk, off to jail you go. The bullshit version takes months and months with the backing of main stream media and a flood of bullshit to drown out the reality. Politics for sale, perverting democracy, criminal negligence with state secrets, even more perverted stuff, and instead basically hundreds of millions of dollars spent on Russia hacking the elections bullshit.
All government exposed, all of the time and real actual fucking prosecutions, confiscation of the proceed of crime with penalties and custodial sentence (if people died as a result, well, even more serious punishments).
Autopilot is to blame but not on it's own, sailing around the seven seas with an erection is of course the greater problem. We are the US Navy and everyone gets out of our way or we will kill you, hence you do not need to turn off the autopilot and well, bigger ships with only barely sufficiently powerful engines and rudders just barely big enough to steer without causing excessive drag, simply can not take sufficient evasive action to account for the dickhead in the US Navy boat, with their hands around their privates, demanding 'wrong of way' and the merchant vessel no matter what is does is incapable of complying and crash.
Don't be sucked in by the bullshit. Hundreds of professional sailors and supposedly professional officers on board, radar, sonar, look outs, and big boats that can be seen many kilometres away and should take actions well before hand to miss by hundreds of metres and not take stupid chances, literally minutes to make choices and not the sneaky bullshit they are trying to PR drop on you, the seconds you get in a car collision. Time to turn really big rudders (even fucking manually) and change gears and power up really powerful engines. The only thing being hacked is the egoistic psyche of naval officers to wrapped up in their genitals to pay attention to their seamanship. Real deep state crap, always protect the lie of who you pretend to be, rather than the truth of who you have become, fascist war mongers and the behaviour of your military proves it, hence the need for a lie.
Let's be clear, that web site is a scammy public relations exercise to drive identity politics in order to exclude policy politics. Who paid for it and why is more important than who accessed it. Obviously part of a larger scheme to drive conflict and break up workers, to keep identity politics to the fore and drive policy back out of public purview, to keep the establishment powerful and the rest of us divided and weak. Fuck, your living conditions, the state of your genitals count for more whether natural or hacked to pieces. Fuck you access to justice, you colour identity counts more in the era of bleaches and dyes. Fuck your access to democracy, screaming about your religion and forcing it on others counts for more. Bullshit identity politics. People behind it should be investigated and prosecuted, especially those that paid for it with intent to generate violent outcomes (keep in mind a lot of the current shite is about a pack of criminals trying to stay out of prison, in and outside of government, with a bunch of idiots buying into the PR=B$).
The truth is very often undesirable and boring. So they will be paying more for artful lies. Want a system that works, treat your audience like children. Give them some pocket play money to spend, a set allowance each time period (longer time periods require more careful thought so 24hour vs 48 hour vs 7 days) and that they can spend with whom they wish. Allow them to earn extra play money by buying stuff with real money and they can spend that play money as they wish. Those authors who they choose to spend their play money with, earn real money. Selling stuff seems to work better than advertising stuff, in the current era. Advertising seems to be spending big to gain very little sales because once you are on the internet, you see and interesting item you might be interested in and you, well, immediately use the internet to compare it to competitors and find it is over priced shite with a big advertising product and you don't buy it. The only advertising that works for me, is when I am actually shopping and something is on special and I check it out (compare with competitors) and that special is actually worthwhile, that is it. Trying to squeeze marketing dollars out of that does not leave much space. Spend more on the product and less on advertising and you are more likely to win the sale.

So sell stuff for bitcoin at retail and bitcoin fluctuates by 30% just straight up add 30% to the 50% on top of the profit margin and just in case add some more based upon how much competition in that market, less competition even higher margin, you have a fish in a barrel market and trade out of that bitcoin for real cash as quickly as possible to limit losses.
From a suckers point of view, compare the imaginary bit coin price to a real currency to see how much you are actually paying for stuff and find you are paying pretty much double, even triple the real currency retail price and the retailer will just say, oh that's the old price, we haven't adjusted it yet and we only do increased imaginary bit coin values once a month, of course decreases are programmed in instantly via a program.
So you can buy bitcoin with retail products at a massive discount, rather than paying for it with real dollars. Consumables work best, so sure illegal drugs but also legal drugs will work (booze, tobacco, MJ in some locations). Want to know the true worth of bitcoin, create a basket of products priced in bitcoin and compare that price to a basket of the same products in a real currency backed by a real countries assets.
How about not looking at styles of grocery shopping but rather than just as the size of a corporation is it too big to safely have in an economy, should limited liability laws end, when capital worth of a corporations is too great, should share holders be then liable for those debts rather than the general public. Why private profits and socialise losses. Once a corporations goes past a billion dollars, should not the share holders be liable for it's debts rather than the general public. Break up or take sole responsibility for corporate debts, those debts being passed out on a per share basis, rather than off to tax payers. Put real hard limits on the size of corporations. Should multi-nationals just be straight up banned, they are inherently evil as far as human societies are concerned, no longer loyal to the society they operate in and nothing more than a source of corruption of democracy, a true anti-social evil.
They need to keep it simple, otherwise how else can they reliably tell if we can be screwed over yet more, without freaking out and stringing them all up. A how far can they go meter, taking everything and leaving us nothing before we rise up and take them down.
Can only really be done in hardware ie they generate the required profits to run from selling the hardware and use the free P2P social network created by the hardware as the sales point for the hardware, done in a smart router with expandable storage space. They don't even have to install all that much on your computer, just access the social network system in the router via a web page, much cleaner and safer as far as your hardware is concerned.
Growing meat cells, has a real problem with pathogens and corporate greed. A whole food like algae is safer in corporate hands, it tends to die real fast or look after itself in relatively clean environments. Grow meat, vulnerable meat without, an immune system and that means a whole host of chemicals to keep it alive, pretty much a whole range of antibiotics, to keep the meat from being infected, anti-biotics they will in turn be fed to us, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..., basically "opposing life", so side affects with loads of corporate PR and lawyer denials are the expected results. Poor people meat, rather than the highest quality food and poor people meat because of the necessary chemicals to keep the franken meat alive and corporate greed driven stupidity always looking for short cuts, this quarters profits and people will last eating it for at least a year.
Note also, algae based and everyone with the right basic equipment can grow it (fish tank in the kitchen, feed the fish and they produce fertiliser), fake meat and only corporate industrial facilities can grow it. Total corporate control over food, obey or starve, another part of the corporate take over. Corporate cash less society, obey or be denied access to anything else. Corporate government, obey or die. The investors, basically the whose who of control freaks, only they know, only their insane levels of greed makes them smart, the billions of the rest of us know fuck all, as far as their egos are concerned (we are just not insanely greedy like them).
An algae steak, grown in clean salt water with reduced chemical input apart from chemicals the algae uses to grow far preferable to fake meat soaking in anti-biotics, hmm, I can just taste those anti-biotic side affects,"opposing life", so tasty (I'll bet none of those "opposing life" chemicals will cause cancer when you eat it every day, just ask the companies lawyers growing or the investors who never eat it).
They are talking a ponzi currency, that they get to create without creating a debt. Currency backed by the gullible imagination of the people who foolishly buy into it. At it's core it is corrupt and as a result it will be managed corruptly. Debt free money, watch it get stolen in bulk by the politicians and corporate backers who create it and than trade it for real money, legally required to be backed by the country of issuance. Why create one imaginary unbacked currency, create hundreds even thousands and you not longer have to be satisfied with being a billionaire you can become quadrillionaire, fuck the trillions.
Not an investigation, a cover up, a pretend investigation. Yep, the pretend ones often take much longer that, ohh look top secrets on a server in your bathroom, well, that's a slam dunk, off to jail you go. The bullshit version takes months and months with the backing of main stream media and a flood of bullshit to drown out the reality. Politics for sale, perverting democracy, criminal negligence with state secrets, even more perverted stuff, and instead basically hundreds of millions of dollars spent on Russia hacking the elections bullshit.
All government exposed, all of the time and real actual fucking prosecutions, confiscation of the proceed of crime with penalties and custodial sentence (if people died as a result, well, even more serious punishments).
Autopilot is to blame but not on it's own, sailing around the seven seas with an erection is of course the greater problem. We are the US Navy and everyone gets out of our way or we will kill you, hence you do not need to turn off the autopilot and well, bigger ships with only barely sufficiently powerful engines and rudders just barely big enough to steer without causing excessive drag, simply can not take sufficient evasive action to account for the dickhead in the US Navy boat, with their hands around their privates, demanding 'wrong of way' and the merchant vessel no matter what is does is incapable of complying and crash.
Don't be sucked in by the bullshit. Hundreds of professional sailors and supposedly professional officers on board, radar, sonar, look outs, and big boats that can be seen many kilometres away and should take actions well before hand to miss by hundreds of metres and not take stupid chances, literally minutes to make choices and not the sneaky bullshit they are trying to PR drop on you, the seconds you get in a car collision. Time to turn really big rudders (even fucking manually) and change gears and power up really powerful engines. The only thing being hacked is the egoistic psyche of naval officers to wrapped up in their genitals to pay attention to their seamanship. Real deep state crap, always protect the lie of who you pretend to be, rather than the truth of who you have become, fascist war mongers and the behaviour of your military proves it, hence the need for a lie.
Let's be clear, that web site is a scammy public relations exercise to drive identity politics in order to exclude policy politics. Who paid for it and why is more important than who accessed it. Obviously part of a larger scheme to drive conflict and break up workers, to keep identity politics to the fore and drive policy back out of public purview, to keep the establishment powerful and the rest of us divided and weak. Fuck, your living conditions, the state of your genitals count for more whether natural or hacked to pieces. Fuck you access to justice, you colour identity counts more in the era of bleaches and dyes. Fuck your access to democracy, screaming about your religion and forcing it on others counts for more. Bullshit identity politics. People behind it should be investigated and prosecuted, especially those that paid for it with intent to generate violent outcomes (keep in mind a lot of the current shite is about a pack of criminals trying to stay out of prison, in and outside of government, with a bunch of idiots buying into the PR=B$).
The truth is very often undesirable and boring. So they will be paying more for artful lies. Want a system that works, treat your audience like children. Give them some pocket play money to spend, a set allowance each time period (longer time periods require more careful thought so 24hour vs 48 hour vs 7 days) and that they can spend with whom they wish. Allow them to earn extra play money by buying stuff with real money and they can spend that play money as they wish. Those authors who they choose to spend their play money with, earn real money. Selling stuff seems to work better than advertising stuff, in the current era. Advertising seems to be spending big to gain very little sales because once you are on the internet, you see and interesting item you might be interested in and you, well, immediately use the internet to compare it to competitors and find it is over priced shite with a big advertising product and you don't buy it. The only advertising that works for me, is when I am actually shopping and something is on special and I check it out (compare with competitors) and that special is actually worthwhile, that is it. Trying to squeeze marketing dollars out of that does not leave much space. Spend more on the product and less on advertising and you are more likely to win the sale.
