I gnash my teeth and cry into my pillow every night because I'm not being data harvested by Microsoft. I open my taskbar and wail, for there are no ads to be displayed.

Linux. Not even once.

So a poorly made electric vehicle by one manufacturer means that the entire field is non-viable?

EDIT: Lmao, check out this guy's posts, every single comment is shitting on battery EVs and shilling hydrogen vehicles. I don't know how much you're being paid to shill for the fossil fuel industry, but I hope it's enough.

Ugh, no thank you, school was like a shitty job you can't quit, physical violence is brushed off and your future is held hostage by underpaid govenment workers who either don't care about you or actively hate your guts. I would sooner die than return to that time and place.

FFS, if you cannot monitor your employee's productivity via ERP software or meetings you are a shit boss and you should have been shitcanned a long time ago. Why the fuck is the mainstream media pumping out this shit day in and day out?

I am tired of hearing about this asshole, at this point c/technology is giving him free publicity.

Terrible article, the author stokes a completely basesless moral panic.

Porn has been the go-to scapegoat for every societal ill since time immemorial, and this is just the latest iteration of the constant fretting about it.

And the article he quotes is even more ridiculous. Now fantasy girlfriends are an existential threat to women? If a man wrote about how he has to compete with romance novels and sex toys he would be derided as a fragile loser.

I am bored with this type of discourse.

I think Musk is a hack and a conman, but what the fuck is with lefty twitter accounts that think behaving like a completely braindead troll online will sway anyone? Hexbears on lemmy have the same style of moronic shit slinging.

At this point businesses have two options:

  • Bite the bullet, terminate lease agreements and pay the fines associated, then advertise yourself as a full remote company and attract global talent.
  • Be penny wise and pound foolish, stomp your feet, slowly hemmorage the best employees until you're left with people whose only talent is playing office politics.

We'll see how this plays out in the long run, it wouldn't be out of character for the owner class to start needling their pet politicians to devalue currency even more to put those pesky workers in their place.

Defederating brigaders and trolls is necessary to maintain a healthy community. If your instance is defederated from all major instances, perhaps you should look examine what sort of company you keep.

Users: Use the product as it was designed and advertised.

While I dislike bloat, I also avoid distros that have been minimalized to the point of uselessness. Minimalist distros are great for old and embedded computers, but regular desktop ones should not require you to install 90% of the OS after booting it.
