Not yet, not yet, not yet.

This is what they sre hoping for and expecting from the population as they take away more and more of your rights. Working to cow the population into submission.

Showing up in numbers to an armed, but peaceful protest is what is needed when they are at the point of arresting people for voicing non hateful opinions .

We’ve already reached the point where secret police ripping people off the streets is normalized.

How much further should you let them get?

You forgot the part where the real answers are obfuscated by all the poor quality tutorials being generated every day, repeating wrong answers and proliferating the problem.

You are making a huge mistake thinking that pro trans politicians are losing. Dems lost in 2024 without ever voicing a position on trans rights specifically.

MAGA talked about it so much, that the dems left it alone and we saw what happened. After that, in by-elections plenty dems who took a strong stance came out ahead.

Also, fuck you for responding to someone talking about their rights being taken away with a ‘Lol’ response.

And for those who weren’t already aware, one of the most famous book burning photograph is from the raid on The Institut für Sexualwissenschaft (English: Institute for Sexual Science)

From wiki:

It pioneered research and treatment for various matters regarding gender and sexuality, including gay, transgender, and intersex topics.

They just want to make the words acceptable today so they can pre-justify the violence tomorrow.

Each person’s circumstances are different, and Im glad it works for you.

My experience was 45 minutes drive each way (or 80 min bus) the drive was stressful, because commuter traffic was slow and full of assholes (like me). I wasn’t compensated for that time or stress, I just carried it. Plus the cost of a 2nd car for no reason outside of getting to work.

Work from home gave all of that time and energy back to actually get to live my life during the week, rather than enter a coma like state of barely functioning until it was time to go to work again.

The extra cost of working at the office wasn’t worth it. It wasn’t accounted for in my salary fairly in my mind.

The whole work headspace thing is easy. Get up , get ready, work. At the end of the day, go for a run, get out of the headspace, shower and then its home relaxing time.

WFH was/is an amazing opportunity for people who work doesn’t demand on hand productivity in a warehouse, factory etc.

In terms of climate change, the effects of wide spread WFH and reduced commuter travel was real, and for that alone countries should have run with it, providing incentives to convert unused office space into affordable housing and transformed the landscapes of cities into more walkable spaces. granted the time to achieve that and the businesses that relied on daily office workers business would likely not have survived.

That’s a well crafted PR response that does it’s best to accept responsibility and give a plausible explanation, which is what’s expected. Doesn’t mean its true.

It doesn’t really fit well with what’s in the image to my eyes though.

Maybe a second person saw the ticket, thought someone missed a word and added it, but that doesn’t make sense at a high end place to have just anybody doing lettering.

Looking at that ‘Happy Birthday’ on a plate and thinking something needed to be added, I would not want to touch that perfect cursive even if I had similarly impressive flow, I can’t imagine the different shape wouldn’t be acceptable at a place like that.

Not even. It wasn’t the same hand that wrote those letters.

Maybe a server wrote it after the fact, or maybe the client did to get story and a free dinner.

There is no justice in punishing people who’ve become addicted, and are just using to satisfy the addiction.

You know who becomes addicted? The kid who runs/drives/rides in front of a car and ends up on major pain meds. Maybe ticketing parents who let their kids do that, without regard for the evidence of its dangers is a good idea after all.

Any product created by a company that has demonstrated evil intent should be considered evil, even if there are legitimate valid uses. You have to trust not only the person using it, but also the company that controls what the device can/will do with or without the users constent.

My theory is it was an extension of the fish eye lenses use in music videos. Back then they were pretty ubiquitous and carried a certain’We’re bad-ass’ connotation, and for a music album cover, this was the type of one frame that could capture the essence of that.

This will need management and legislation to not turn the world into bad place.

I think this is the key piece. Management and Legislative bodies don’t currently care one whit about people. They only care about money and power so dystopia really seems like the path we’re on.

It will take a massive shift or some major cataclysmic revolutions to change that path.

So… you write it down to forget it. Seems effective to remove distractions. Less effective to actually remember it, if it’s actually important.

Long term, it’s not going to create a two tier system. It’s going to drain limited resources from the public system until it fails, and then all we have left is profit driven healthcare that provides worse care than what we were getting for everyone except the richest.

You sure?

The problem the becomes are the bad or missed calls because they are human, or because the fix is in? That same worry happens with VAR. But it’s reviewable and so bad calls are more easily noticed, and identifying trends is easier.

Publishing the post sure.

But propagating notification alerts to followers isn’t reliably that fast.

Having a paid queue to be alerted first makes sense technically.

Huge ethical issues though. This is clearly just corruption. Pay me money and you’ll get insider trading information that won’t actually be called that.

Our system is not set up for anything other than to make the richest people richer, by exploiting the labour of the rest of the people.

Our real system, the closed system known as planet Earth is not set up for endless growth of a human economy. All populations go through growth and crash cycles. The longer we push off the decline, the harder the crash will be.
