  • Wikimedia Foundation refuses voluntary union recognition, hires union-busting law firm

    Jump

  • That's exactly how it worked for my agency.

    They were dragging new hires in and ordering them to sign away the union without knowing anything about them.

  • Netflix Sued For $105 Million After Hard Drive of Unreleased Nicolas Cage Movie Was Stolen From Its Office

  • Too true, but when you see a kid crying about their spilled ice cream, do you go "Haha, cry harder dipshit!" Ice cream doesn't matter, right?

    Or should you just be kind to others as your starting point?

  • Adult life in 2026, so beautiful

  • $10 says they still think AI is great at counting things.

  • Oh shit, he's doing the 67 thing!

    Jump

  • Because they have some meaning (and arguably, value) beyond "a number we choose to be a meme."

    The minute enough people knew what 6 7 was, it lost the only value it had: being an inside joke and using it to exclude others not in the know.

  • Serious question:

    Have you ever wondered why you enjoy being shitty to other people?

  • Several US schools to install pepper-spraying drones to respond to school shootings

    Jump

  • Yeah, fair enough. I just didn't want to give them an "it depends" answer.

  • Several US schools to install pepper-spraying drones to respond to school shootings

    Jump

  • Like the kind you wear in a lab?

    No, those are purpose-built to keep airborne contaminants out.

    Jump

  • Pepper spray, especially fog-applied, is going to get around that.

  • Microsoft's Windows 11 push backfired, so it's quietly keeping Windows 10 alive for another year

    Jump

  • Basically, yeah.

    It's a bit easier to know someone doesn't do drugs if you require they hand over keys to the cops for regular surprise inspections and searches of their home, but at what point have we made the fix far worse than the problem?

    Similarly, rootkit anticheat gives advanced low-level access to anyone who can crack the anticheat program, all to make it a bit less likely that you'll cheat. It's a bit easier to program than server-side anticheat, but at what cost?

  • Reddit keeps pushing on being a closed platform, now rolling out mandatory logging for old.reddit.com - worth pushing for the fediverse again?

    Jump

  • old.reddit.com actually stopped working entirely for me today, logged in or not.

    The enshittification will continue until every user is gone.

  • Don't Contribute Anything Relevant in Web Forums Like Reddit

    Jump

  • You're an internet user.

    Don't you know how much CSAM there is on the internet?

    You make me sick.

  • ænyøne with me?

    Jump

  • I think they're in this post already because I did see someone using it earlier.

    You used to see them in every thread doing it, though. I can't be bothered to confirm or remember their username.

    Jump

  • Competitive shooters from mega-corporate publishers are generally the only ones who have a cow if they can't rootkit anti-cheat your rig.

    So whether you're against oligarchs or against setting up a backdoor into your PC, you shouldn't be playing those titles anyway.

  • Schools across America are quietly admitting that screens in classrooms made students worse off and are reversing years of tech-first policies

    Jump

  • How is it that it took until 2026, nearly 100 years after the advent of the nuclear bomb, for school administrators to realize that not all technology is inherently good in every application?

  • AI double standards

    Jump

  • Similarly, if you make a mistake while disliked you are clearly incompetent and need to be punished, but a mistake while liked is only human.

  • ænyøne with me?

    Jump

  • Stop. You're going to attract the thorn person. This is chum in the water for them.

    Tesseract dev injects malicious code into browser to illegally DDOS the dbzer0 instance

    Jump

  • The odds are far from great, but saying it never happens is disinformation.

    Jump

  • Yeah they probably inspired my metaphor.

  • I view that as circle-jerky propaganda.
