Workers should unite and tell management to get fucked.

Capriciously applied rules is a terrible system. We hold up ideals like “rule of law” and “democracy” but as soon as capital is involved it’s right back to “I am the law” and tyranny.

Seems like rich territory for jokes about saint Luigi

Do tacky people generally know that they’re tacky, or is part of tackiness being unaware?

Some of the leadership is getting a lot of wealth, true. The majority seem to be losing more. Loss of government programs (eg: Medicare). Return of preventable diseases (eg: measles). Pollution and climate change.

Every accusation is a confession, right? That’s how conservatives work. They’re unimaginative people with poor empathy. They think about what they would do and assume that’s what everyone else would do, too. They are trash. Failures. Disappointments.

Nice! I installed Mint on someone’s old MacBook recently and so far so good. No complaints.

Maybe, but the bug report was it was showing them in the “wrong order” in the UI. I could look at the API response but then I need to map that to what’s displayed somehow. I think I used the dev tools to run js on the page to get the actual dates in one go (since that was in the dom), but that kind of sucks. A customer certainly isn’t going to do that. They see a bunch of stuff that all says “yesterday” or “two weeks ago” and they need to do extra work to get information that we went out of our way to hide.

At work I had a page with 50 “friendly” dates and I had to figure out with ones were wrong. They all said like “yesterday”. Hell. Could have hovered over each one and taken notes, I guess, but that would suck. Had to use the dev tools and do a lot more thinking than just looking at them.

I kind of despise relative time. You see a bunch of stuff that says “yesterday” but can’t tell exactly when without taking more actions. Just tell me the date time I’m not a child.

You are breaking the internet with this non sense.

I think that’s their goal. Conservative types benefit when people have limited access to information

I’m just waiting for “Elon Musk dies after following Grok’s advice to mix household cleaning chemicals”

I don’t believe you. Sorry.

Please go read https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_privilege and the related articles, such as https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersectionality

For example, white men will generally have an easier time in public spaces. Police and shops are less likely to bother them.

privilege doesn’t mean “you have a yacht” or “you’re rich”

I kind of assume it’s the juxtaposition of “I as a white man have immense social privilege” with “I can’t get anyone to play with me”. Like, other people are worried about being abducted on the street and you’re sad you can’t play basketball with your bros?

The sadness of loneliness can be real but in contrast to other things it can feel like it needs to be triaged into a lower priority. And then some men lose their shit over that, which makes people take them less seriously.

Many people are illiterate. How many of them are trying to run Linux, I don’t know.

Right wingers are idiots, in the sense of being exclusively emotional driven. Like children, without the excuse of being children

I read they’re using react, the JavaScript library, for the start menu. If true that strikes me as insane

They want to emphasize certain words, but don’t really have the confidence and writing skills to do so in other ways
