Yeah, my boss expects that. He’s been at the same company for almost 20 years, since the department was created.

He also gave me a 3% raise this year. It’s nice to get cost of living, but why would I try to invest in a workplace where I know I’ll be able to make more and more elsewhere every year.

Because Facebook is the posterchild for anticompetitive evil corporations.

They’re doing this because it will help them monopolize more content or more users. By nature, that will be harmful to the fediverse.

It is, but android Roms with good privacy features are relatively few and far between.

Yes. We shoot people for accelerating from a stoplight too fast here.

Honestly I just keep mine on airplane mode. Calibre was always a much better management tool, and libgen isn’t nearly as creepy.

I don’t know about stigma, but the whole family is just vaguely dysfunctional. We can’t really spend any time together for more than a couple of hours before someone starts a fight, generally (but not always) on accident.

I can’t listen to it right now, but the issue with characters like Aunt Jemima is that they were just racist stereotypes given a name and slapped on a box.

I think a good analogy for this situation would be a themed chain where an AI pretends to be a comedic racist caricature.

The car I’m interested in holds its value very well, so the lifetime cost is lower if I buy new. I’m also planning on being slightly less poor before buying it.

And regarding the “fired at will” thing, we don’t deal with it. We just kind of hope. I’m a little bit tistic, so I’ve been fired several times for not engaging in the proper amount of small talk. You get another job and move on.

I disagree. IE was incredibly proprietary, and SMS is at least an open standard.

IE is…idk Facebook messenger or Imessage or something.
