While I wholeheartedly agree with her message, the reality is that any employee that interrupts a company event to criticize the company until they are escorted out of the room is gonna be fired regardless of the accuracy of their statements. We should be appalled at Microsoft’s complicity in Gaza, not that they fired an employee.
I applaud her for her stand, but she and everyone knew this would result in her termination.
They should just stop all exports to US for a month. They can absorb the hit. The US cannot.
What’s the conversion to plantain?
Adjusting for overscan in the 2000s…
So things aren’t necessarily all bad.
I work in municipal development, and this is the kind of shit I notice all the time.
My job is to nitpick details.
The 22nd amendment was written poorly, and prohibits someone from being elected into the office.
Terrifying fact: the Speaker of the House is third in line, and doesn’t actually have to be a member of Congress. If the VP and President both leave office without a new VP being appointed, the Speaker of the House assumes the Presidency, bypassing both the 12th and 22nd amendments.
Do you people never do any actual work on your computers?
I have body parts that are less important to me than my numpad.
You try to take numpads from standard keyboards and I’ll gladly charge that hill.
It works well, and I’m a huge fan and contributor to Open Street Maps (which it’s bassed on). But it doesn’t do traffic, which is unfortunately wha I need from my navigation apps 99% of the time.
If they had a paid option to cover the costs of using TomTom’s traffic API, I’d make the switch.
I was born in 83, and grew up in the time where being a computer need required real work and knowledge of computers.
The things got easier and easier, and then the smartphones came.
These new kids literally don’t know how to search a file directory because they are used to the apps magicing stuff where it needs to be.
Yeah, and try as we might, we haven’t been able to replicate its biggest selling point. It was unfortunately also its greatest vulnerability regarding the corporatetake over.
It was a central location from which thousands of large, niche communities could be found.
Lemmy is great, but the decentralized nature of it also fragments small communities and makes it hard for them to launch. I was super active of the Scuba subreddit, but on Lemmy, there are like 8 scuba communities spread across the instances, but they’re all so small there’s no activity on them, and that fragmentation makes it difficult for one to reach the necessary critical mass to become active.
Palantir is pretty spot-on. It spies on everyone, is a tool of evil, and once used you never know who’s watching and influencing you.
That’s why they’re using Signal. If this while thing collapses on them, they don’t want written records of their criminal conspiracies.
It also feels like something Kavenaugh would have been into.
I think the important thing here is to not get distracted and focus on what’s really important:
Hillary’s emails.
Never do a sinple short. The maximum possible gain is whatever the current price is at, but there is no cap on the potential loss.
Especially don’t do this when Trump may order the federal government to buy a bunch of Teslas and make the stock surge again.
You expect unions to remain “legal” if that happens?
Trump’s team very carefully which Court orders to initially openly defy. Lots of people don’t see the urgency in defending the rights of “gang members.” But what he’s doing is setting the precedent that people can be sent to overseas labor camps without ANY due process.
Lots of American citizens may soon find themselves being accused of being Venezuelan gang members or agents of foreign “terrorist” groups.
Because of the child laborers making 85 cents an hour?
