  • What's a process where you prefer the old way of doing things instead of how it's done now?

    Actually I quite liked that bit. It was reassuring and familiar and you knew it was working.

    What I didn't like was taking 20 minutes to download a tiny video, anyone picking up the phone instantly killing your connection including the software download you'd been watching download for the last 15 minutes and the cost per minute and unreliability that taught me to connect, download my email, open my messages page, on the forum, disconnect, write all the forum replies in notepad and email replies in my client, then dial up again, hit sync on the email client and paste all my replies back in the forum.

  • Just pop in a magnetic screwdriver bit holder and you have strong power and perfect control.

    It countersinks with ease but without the risk of screwing too deep like its electric counterpart all too easily does.

    1. Trump always stands like this in public to show that he is ready to take Putin's dick.

  • Five-star-ratings everywhere

  • If your target is 4.7, every asshole who gives you 4 stars because "there's always room for improvement" or "5 means excellent and I wasn't that excited about it" has to be balanced by at least three more who give it 5 because they recognise that the wage slave has no power to make it better than they did and it's unreasonable to expect the wage slave to inject joy into their day.

    most people don’t actually shout at people

    Depends on the company. Some companies give people a ten cents raise, an hour's training and lots of stress and targets for being a supervisor. I don't know whether shouting at the other wage slaves is the intended behaviour, but it's frequently the outcome.

    It's great that you don't have experience working for places where the fear is used for control, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen a lot.

    You may say "if you don't like it, feel free to get a different job", but that's exactly what management say, and there are plenty of people on whom that fear works.

  • 4 does not meet corporate expectations and some minimum wage person who dealt with you is going to get shouted at.

  • Be careful with it, though, because if someone on minimum wage is somehow linked with your less than perfect rating, corporate are going to be on their case to improve their numbers.

  • Yeah! Thanks. I was shouting "Zoom out! Zoom out!" at my screen.

  • Amazon is the most efficient money extraction machine from people in history and AWS is the most efficient money extraction machine in history from businesses. Musk is better at extracting money from the US government, which is why he's richer than Bezos.

  • Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronics

  • In which nation is energy generation not using vast natural resources at huge initial outlay where companies have a boner for monopolising or cartels and exploiting scarcity to drive up prices?

    Side note: DARPA's TCP/IP networky thing seems to have had some future in it!

  • Traitors to the constitution, traitors to democracy, traitors to free and fair elections, traitors to the founding fathers, traitors to the people and even traitors to the union and the flag. What were you waiting for them to betray before you call them traitors?

  • You invent so much of my side of the conversation. You argue with what you'd prefer I had said because it's so easy to disagree with and knock down. You've invented this whole nonsense viewpoint and life history for me just so you can come across as more sensible. But it's insane because it has almost nothing to do with what I said and everything to do with your prejudices and your inability to have some self control over your judgementalism and your condemnatory impulses.

    You've gotta be rightwing.

    Bad people who make bad choices deserve all the bad things that come their way and some more flung at them by you just to show them how wrong they are? That's where you're coming from here.
