Why stop at the ISP, when you could really make a statement and also go after the power companies who provide the electricity to those homes? Make them live in the stone age!

Is that Microsoft has been quietly moving many Office-product related jobs to China over the years
But sure, let us focus only on the cons of single-use utensils.
By the time they even get anywhere close to breaking even (either monetarily or technologically) on this endeavor, the need for these chips will long be gone.
Recently, they made a push into groceries. Many of these are priced at or lower than traditional low-cost outlets like Walmart and Aldi. Is it just another tether to keep you attached to the mothership? Probably, but at least there is some good coming from them.
There are plenty of companies that are worse offenders.
There is literally nothing to gain by doing this, even in the long run.
I have always considered myself anti-DST, but with these sensationalist headlines as of late I think I may be on the other side now.
I worked in a school district for many years in a similar role as this guy. Microsoft products are dirt cheap, if not outright free, for them. Hyper-V is an obvious migration path for them that could be done in a short amount of time.
There is also plenty of open source options available as well. Will anything be a 100% drop-in replacement with every single bell and whistle? No. Will you care in the long run? Probably not.
The article also says that their current offering is only from 2019, meaning any migration should be relatively painless without the fear of any legacy systems still running.
Not a fan of VMWare and the stunt they pulled, but to act like the world is ending (and especially to drag out the claim that kids education will be harmed) without considering any viable alternatives is a bit ridiculous.
We have plenty of time to pad our profiles. Let us all claim to cure cancer, world hunger, and save each of our old companies trillions of dollars and see those offer emails roll inâ¦
Your willful ignorance of the documented abuses is an actual example of gaslighting. Someone calling you out because you push misinformation is not.
Your link to an advocacy group report counts registrations, not real jobs, and the numbers are as padded as an overstuffed junk resume. The links above actually have quantifiable metrics and specific examples of hundreds of thousands of jobs in recent years where wage abuse was directly alleged, or admitted, as a result of the H1B program.
You can say that it is illegal all day long and be true. When you say it does not happen, you become a liar. When you cite misinformation, you become a zealot.
Almost all H1Bs are indeed paid significantly less than US Citizen equivalents.

I am not in favor of DST but be real. Americans will generally always have bad health, no matter what time of day it is.
Everything this guy says is shady. I hope his shareholders start holding him accountable.
Also, cheap labor
