They forgot to mention that his wife and he separated in 2018, keeping it secret for years. It was revealed after his death.

Not that I think there's anything bad about being separated/divorced, but it'd be a lie to paint him as a family man.

I guess his criminal record for drunk driving also doesn't fit the narrative.

It's a valid point.

Most practical examples of out-sourcing has however failed to show any worthwhile savings, while working from home has shown remarkable increases in productivity.

"Don't turn off" is the worst kind of status message.

When it eventually hangs for various reasons, you actually do need to turn off your pc for it to complete or to let it roll back in an error state.

When "just hang in there" is still present on the third day you'll start wondering why you bought that piece of furniture and won't mind the consequences of turning it off.

I don't know, but guns seem to enhance it.

The two richest people on earth whining about income distribution being unfair.

It's sickening how everything is suddenly "unconstitutional" since the supreme court turned republican.

It's silly how everything has to be according to a 200+ year old document, and how the interpretation of that document is arbitrarily changing at the whim of certain political influences.

The US labor board has existed for 100+ years, and now it's supposedly unconstitutional? Shut up.

Elon Musk (28 June 1971) is a nobody wanna be somebody

So.. there'll be a lot of great Chinese punk music soon?

Musk has previously called the Swedish strike "insane". His company has stood by its policy of not agreeing to collective bargaining and said that its employees in Sweden already have similar terms to what their union has called for.

He still doesn't get it, does he?

Having a union agreement is not about the compensation. It's about the right to negotiate the working terms.

His employees everywhere, do not have the right to negotiate anything.

They do not have similar terms, even if he pays more and makes pizza parties. It's not about that at all.

It's not about money. He has enough of that. The Swedish employees have enough of that. It doesn't matter what the compensation is. It's all about the rights to have a say in your own employment. He won't give that away, because he wants to rule like a dictator.

I hope that some day he will understand it. But I will not be disappointed if he decides to fuck off out of Europe altogether, because he's not at all fit to run a company here.

It's a waste of time. People who bother installing Vanced are not likely to click a single god damn ad even if it's forced on them.

So yes, Google can choose to bother some people and get higher statistics on ad views, but the companies paying for the ad will not see one single fucking sale more. This lowers the value of the ad.

They're chasing imaginary revenue.

The value of exposure isn't real either. The phone might play it but I don't fucking watch something that I don't want to watch. I've been online since before online ads were a thing and not once have I bought anything from any online ads.

Just let me opt out of that circus for fuck sake.

Imagine if landlords decided to strike. The consequences would be....

There'd be noone to...

The land doesn't lord itself you know!

It's not complicated. It's just a really dumb move.

Ford said "It's not a lock out". Yeah.. tell me the difference then. They just don't want to acknowledge that they're even playing the game - or maybe they don't understand.

If they want to do layoffs in every department that is affected by the strikes they will shut down faster than the strikes could do it. They're literally helping the union shut down the company, except they'll make it more difficult for themselves to reopen once an agreement is done.

The UAW already announced that they'd do stand up strikes, which despite the new name is a good old strategy of moving the strikes to whatever area or department they want to shut down today.

With these two strategies up against each other, I think the outcome is already determined.

Ford can not win this by laying off people. It's not like the union will suddenly back down just because Ford says: "lOOk aT wHaT yOU mADE me dO!!11" while it hurt itself in the confusion.
