Thatâ(TM)s your fucking choice! You chose to buy into the rich get richer while the poor get poorer You decided to buy into this system of wage slavery because you are a weak minded coward And you will sit there like a slack jawed moron as they build more and more go concentration camps and start rounding up the immigrants, then the trans, then the gays and liberals And you tell yourself âoewhat can I do? I have rent to pay!â You and your pathetic, slavish ilk deserve every bit of whatâ(TM)s coming You are about to find out that you arenâ(TM)t entitled to anything you arenâ(TM)t willing to fight for Enjoy your stay in camp â" the brutality of those who you have enslaved yourself to is all you deserve

I forget what the exact year is, I believe it is 1946.

We have only had one president born since 1946. Yeah - think about that.

Checks Calendar
Yup, definitely Sept 26 so time to release it... I love version numbering schemes that aren't quite accurate

America is now filled with a bunch of willfully ignorant assholes Within a few years there will no facts in American media, only content If you arenâ(TM)t a member of the wealthy elite and donâ(TM)t want to live as a slave, GTFO now The fact is most Americans are slaves they are just too farking blind to see it If you hate whatâ(TM)s going on, but feel powerless to do anything meaningful because âoeyou have rent to payâ â" youâ(TM)re a fucking slave and should just STFU because your opinion does not matter, because uou speak empty words, have no autonomy and youâ(TM)re just worthless trash by choice

I see what you did there...

So let me get this straight. So you use AI to customize your resume, then the company uses AI to reject AI customized resumes? What a waste of electricity is this. Just like the plot of Indiana Jones is not affected at all by the participation of Indiana Jones in the movie

It may not be when either, but where. I started 40 years ago in Texas around this range. I quickly skyrocked up to ~100K moving to the west coast 30 years ago and doubling that moving to Silicon Valley 10 years ago. I would not expect to be making what I make here if I moved back to Texas - but then my housing costs would be half of what they are here.

It isn't firing their best workers it is bleeding them so that there is no reason to stay so it is time to go to a more interesting company. Working for Intel in the 90s there was a bonus that went into your 401k. It wasn't a match it was a serious chunk of change. Depending on profitability it was somewhere in the teens usually. This is retirement money that can get big fast. Big Paul O looked at it and said industry benchmarking is a 6% match, He got rid of it and started paying industry standard. There was a year they gave out raises - but you only got half because they wanted more profitability. Guess what, never showed up. I mean seriously if you are going to hand out raises, just don't say you get half now and half later...

Lets stipulate that if you are a US citizen you are almost always above the median net worth. That said - you are rich. What do you consider your fair share to be - you have plenty after all so how much more of it should you give to me?

Why didnâ(TM)t the âoetechâ setup automated backups? That shouldâ(TM)ve been #1 on the agenda after services were restored. And wouldâ(TM)ve been an easy sell at the time. So did they âoenever learnâ, or did the geniuses they hired to fix their shit not give a shit about best practices and were happy to do the bare minimum and leave their hapless clients to their own devices? Frankly, I am fucking done with the tech industry. Fucking jackholes, sociopaths and scumbags from top to bottom. The fact that itâ(TM)s the mid 2020s and our security standards as a whole are just as abysmal as they were in the 80s, perhaps worse But at least our top tech visionaries have shifted from âoemaking everyoneâ(TM)s lives betterâ to âoefuck you, you filthy animals, weâ(TM)re going to take away everyoneâ(TM)s jobs then subjugate you all under autocracy and slaveryâ So yeah. Everything had gone to shit and I concede the MAGAts might be right. Burning everything to the ground might in fact be the only thing Americans are capable of doing at this point.

I am in california now. Every winter we have atmospheric rivers come over and dump a bunch of rain. The news stations need something to get viewers to tune in so it is "STORM SURGE 202x" coverage every 15 minutes. Yes, it is raining, yes roads wash out, yes, some local flooding - nothing to make me think I need to take action.

I lived in Texas - tornado warning came out. Time to sit on the porch and watch it blow by... Lots of fun had by all. I hear people in Florida won't evacuate until after they determine that a Cat x hurricane is going to hit right where they are. The longer you live there the higher the x is of course.

What do we expect the government to do - force us at gunpoint to evacuate? No, we individually take responsibility to know what is going on around us and act accordingly. You live close to a river that is prone to flash floods - you watch the weather more closely than I do that lives 50 ft higher elevation.

I don't see why this would be formal labor fraud - I mean misrepresentation of history on resumes is bad - but I don't think criminal. Frankly, the IRS doesnt care how many W2s/1099s you submit. The taxes are paid and they get their pound of flesh

Yeah I would love to see an NFC standard that didnt extend the range, but instead specified where in the (*^^*&^#@ the reader was on the POS system, or at least a lit up nfc logo where you want me to tap.... Every POS I go up to has it somewhere else, and finding it is a pain

what do you call a beach with 100 lawyers buried up to their neck in sand?
A sand shortage

What do you mean sloppy - the comma does exactly what is intended.
Lawyers (almost exclusively) write laws
Very vaguely
Then companies pay lawyers a LOT of money to interpret those laws
When two companies interpret the law differently than each party hires VERY expensive lawyers to fight it out in front of a judge - that is another lawyer getting paid a lot of money.
In the end it is the lawyers creating a problem and benefiting from the problem that they create.

Ever hear the joke about a small town having 1 lawyer and the lawyer goes broke - the second the second lawyer moves into town they both get rich
