Sort of. Everything is owned by private equity or other types of investors. Increasing profits is often a contractual obligation. Only so much can be done by streamlining processes and increasing productivity.

In OP’s example, it’s probably because the maintenance required on the pin setting mechanism is cost prohibitive. It’s a small story though, and not a solid example of what I’m talking about 85% of all bowling alleys are independently owned, but I guarantee the 15% owned by Bowlero have switched from traditional pins.

Private equity. If you ever meet a private equity bro, it’s your obligation to spit in his face.

Same difference.

I’m certain that we’ll look at the time we’re currently living in as the Era of Private Equity in the same way we view the late 19th century as the Gilded Age.

We literally saved them from extermination, and they repay us by creating their own state within a state, to generate wealth and power for their own -- engaging in ethnic-nepotism, refusing to assimilate, to the detriment of my entire country, my family, and much of what I love.

Idk, seems smart. Works well, super cheap to fix. I dont think setting pins with the strings is worse. It's not better for the player, but it is certainly better for whomever owns the lanes.
It's not worse for the player either.

I didn't see that happening. Ever. Sure it slightly changes how the pins move in relation to each other. But the mechanics and satisfaction are the same. Marginally different experience for the player, if they even notice, and really probably only fat hardcore beer swilling losers would really care.

>Why
because the post-1970s global economy is Financialized.
All wealth in the 21st century is sourced and generated from (no, no 'labor', 'capital' or 'work') *speculative debt instruments*.
the Real Economy of goods-services-commodities is not where the profit center resides, and may as well not even exist at all. Major corporations shovel their profits into—no, not capex improvements of their own product manufacturing output—*buybacks of their own stocks* to artificially boost valuations.

>"The real money to be made in the world today is not by producing anything at all. It's siimply by forms of speculating — basically making money from money. That's the most profitable, and by far and away the biggest form of economic activity that exists in the world today."
— Nick Dearden, quoted in the film '97% Owned' {<---search it up in archive.4plebs)

customers are undiscerning and don't value quality so suppliers are taking advantage of that
Although customers do look at some stuff like waterproofness and battery life, they neglect uncodified stuff like whether this is an appropriate material or sensible design

because usury at the federal reserve creates a mathematically increasingly hostile economic environment to do business in that worsens every year. Usury is also the reason for DEI, ESG, and all the other gay bullshit. It's also responsible for income inequality due to the Cantillion effect, so you'd think leftists would have an interest in ending it but they are mentally retarded NPCs and will immediately defend their Federal Reserve masters and mock and scoff at anyone who wants to reform it.

You know how more than half of your income goes to rent and paying off debt and paying overpriced crap from monopolies or quasi-monopolies? Probably way more than half for most people at this point.
It's the same for the whole economy. It's the same for businesses. They have to pay rent too. They have debt too. They pretty much have to have debt to be competitive. It's complicated. They have to compete for investors with all sort of financial schemes that have massive return on investment despite producing nothing. They have to pay workers that have to pay excessive rent and have their own debt too. They have to pay for inputs from businesses that have the same problems. They have enshittify their products and constantly try to scam their customers to make up for it.
The Romans didn't forget how to build their buildings. They just lost the motivation to build and maintain them somehow. There were better ways to make money somehow as things crumbled around them.
Same for the machines that gathered the bowling pins and put them back on the alley. We just can't afford those anymore apparently. THAT'S OUR FUCKING COLISEUM CRUMBLING FFFUCK

debt/compound interest/inflation
you need to constantly grow/increase prices however the growth in resources is largely isolated from the consumer so you need to lower costs and increase scale. investors will buy up a bunch of shitty properties find ways to run it with as low costs as possible while increasing scale because in a system of infinite growth it just doesn't become possible to keep growing healthfully.
If you had a company and needed to grow your company at 5-10% a year to tread water what would you do? How is that even possible?

Ok, you have money now, but can you or your kids even go outside? What's even the point?

Because a businesses fiduciary duty is settled legal precedent in the USA, and in most other western nations. What that means is that the people operating a business legally HAVE to be seeking means to maximize the return for it's owners and investors at the cost of anything and everything else.

So if someone comes up with an insane cheapskate plan and you the CEO or executives don't pursue it in earnest before abandoning it, you not only can easily get fired for not doing your job, the business that employed you could sue you afterwards for not doing so.

There is no legal obligation of any kind for a business to operate for any other reason than to make it's owners and investors as much money as possible.
>>
>>540124223
but if it were all white guys would you be equally as critical? looks to me like jews are just better with money. You hate them because they are simply better with money and build intergenerational wealth? Blame your dumb white boomer parents who bought a boat and a summer home instead of giving you a trust lmao. that money could have easily set you up to become a chair person at some conglomerate if you were driven and made good decisions.
>>
String pins are fucking AIDS. I bowl a couple times a week and played on string pins for the first time a few weeks ago... holy shit, they are awful. My immediate thought was there is no way you can play for money on string pins since the string makes carry completely random now. Also these fucking machine could only set a rack correctly maybe 50% of the time which added even more randomness to the counts and carry. Fucking beyond awful.

I don't understand why Brunswick and AMF can't make retard proof machines? We didn't give up on washers and dryers even though those are old mechanical machines. Why couldn't they have figured out some retarded millennial proof pin setters instead of these abortions?

String pins will murder competitive bowling. Also Bowlero being a jewish P&D stock scam which will take out about 25% of the bowling alleys in North America when they flee into the night. Bowling most likely won't be a thing in 10-20 years.

Also every bowling alley in the universe is owned by some older than dirt boomer named Joe. Once that generation is gone, alleys are done.

>>540119578
The positive thing about enshittification is that it creates a market opportunity. You only need to be the ONE bowling alley that doesn't use strings and now you give people a reason to go to you instead of the others. Similarly for everything else that gets enshittified. It's no effort or investment overhead required. You just have to decline to do the scammy thing everyone else is doing. Eventually I predict this will create a pressure that will undo some of the enshittifications over the years. Only platforms with quasi-monopolies can afford to enshittify in perpetuity.
