    Asking the right questions...

  • Because squeezing the workers while doing more causes the line to go up faster than just doing more with added overhead costs. They cannot think past quarterly reports.

  • Do you buy real Christmas trees or put up artificial ones?

    Jump

  • Fake.

    The real ones are expensive, throwaway fire hazards.

    After 3-4 years of throwing away real trees you’d easily have enough for a nice artificial tree that will last decades.

  • Obamacare Users Face Higher Deductibles, Higher Premiums | People who have insurance under the Affordable Care Act are being asked to pay more for plans that will cover less of their care.

  • Hasn’t P2025 indicated the opposite? They want more births (gutting abortion rights and making birth control difficult to access) so they can have a stupid cheap surplus of labor?

  • AI Slop Is Ruining Reddit for Everyone

    Jump

  • Yep. It was headed downhill with the bots, reposts, karma farmers, hive-mind, troll farms, and of course the reddit c-suite "purging" the site of things like WPD, morbid reality, spacedicks (yeah, not subs for everyone, but noetheless...not hurting anyone), getting rid of Victoria, getting rid of mods and leaving petty power mongers and sycophants in place, and allowing shit like The_Donald and similar subs to run unchecked. The forced commercialization, crushing of protest and reddit app was the final straw.

  • Thank you. That would be lovely. I find LED’s flicker sometimes and are too “hard”, they lack the softer, more yellow profile of incandescents.

    Probably what his rant is all about.

  • Anyone care to sum up in a few sentences what this 20+ minute video is all about?

    E: fucking lemmy, lol. Don’t watch youtube! Google sucks! Use alternatives! /asks for a quick summary so as to avoid youtube: lemmy: “Downvote!1!1”

  • An accent that is still english speaking but not so foreign that US listeners cannot understand it but still implies the speaker is foreign.

    Jump

  • SOSDD.

    I voted for you and am fine with you doing all the shitty things to other people, but am not fine with you doing anything that negatively affects me personally. But keep doing all that other shit.

  • Some people view a label as an ending. They put people into the box. Think no further, end of story. AKA “stereotype”. How you treat the person you just labeled with implicit bias forces them into that box because of your expectations and biases, conscious or otherwise.

    Other people, who might pause for a second when they hear a label, will mentally decompress the label with tools like nuance and understand that the label isn’t monolithic. It’s a starting point. Not a stopping point. People are a spectrum. So if someone says they’re an introvert, we know they probably aren’t into crowded bars or large social situations. But you don’t get to tell them “If you don’t use the label you will change.”

    It’s how you use the label when you interact with them, not how they use the label for themselves.

  • Exhausted

    Jump

  • Yes. And we call that kind of person an “introvert”.

  • ‘There is no Mamdani effect’: Manhattan luxury home sales surge after mayoral election, undercutting predictions of doom and escape to Florida

    Jump

  • Probably most of those stating they’d run away already had Florida or other avoid-NY-taxes out of state license plates on their cars before the election.

  • Locked

    TIL: In the Soviet Union, they considered being against the state a mental illness and would lock you up for the crime of being mentally ill

  • “Liberalism is a mental disease!”

    A phrase often said by MAGAs. It’s no distance at all saying the same thing about nationalism.
