CEO: share!? profit? SHARE PROFIT!?! SOMEONE CALL SECURITY WE HAVE A COMMUNIST!!!

Asafum ,

No no no, it’s not an issue at all!

It’s Working As Intended* as in there’s a demand (guaranteed by schools) so we charge whatever the fuck we want! Supply is also high? Following supply and demand as theory is for chumps! Supply and demand theory is for us to use as we see fit and to ignore the aspects we don’t like!

Damn, foiled again! :P

Why not serve fried chicken on Juneteenth? How is it different from serving corned beef on St. Patrick’s day? (old.lemmy.world)

Disclaimer: I am not trolling, I am an autistic person who doesn’t understand so many social nuances. Also I am from New Hampshire (97% white), so I just don’t have any close African-American friends that I am willing to risk asking such a loaded question.

Asafum ,

Not that I needed another reason to point at racists and call them a bunch of fucked up morons, but goddamn they are bunch of fucked up morons.

People are literally killing people who’s ancestors adapted to more exposure to direct sunlight than theirs did. I can’t not see it in just that simple way and think “what the actual fuck is wrong with people?” You can’t even say it’s a culture thing they don’t like, because they don’t actually know the people they cast hate at other than the color of their skin. It’s absolute insanity.

Asafum ,

Shit! If I had more than 2 braincells I’d be in trouble.

Asafum ,

It’s very much a selective thing. Humans vs meat machines.

I’m a meat machine. The factory I work in regularly gets over 90°F in the summer and being on long Island its also humid as fuck like 75%+.

I checked the NY state laws on factory conditions and wouldn’t you know it, the fucking laws are vague as shit to allow essentially anything… “All factories must maintain a reasonable temperature and humidity.” That’s the fucking law. “Reasonable” is not defined anywhere in that law… I contacted my business cuck "R"epresentative about what that law means or how we determine what is reasonable, and yet again wouldn’t you know, he never responded…

Asafum ,

That’s actually the area where I went to learn HVAC! I’m much more east now past Riverhead actually, I couldn’t deal with the traffic lol

Happy cake day apparently! Lol

Asafum ,

Fucking seriously… I make $30/hr and can’t even dream about buying in my area… Anywhere in my area… Hours and hours away, still not even close. The closest area to me that I could consider is roughly 6 hours away…

“An influx of immigrants in the country also isn’t helping the housing affordability equation as it has in the past.”

Go fuck yourself business insider. The ol’ “America is full” bit is it? The Great Enemy: the poor immigrant who is going to steal your piss poor paying job, but somehow also “steals” your super fucking overpriced house that even natural born citizens with full time jobs can’t afford.

Get fucked.

Asafum ,

I would think that failure just exposes points of improvement. They failed before, but now they know how to succeed. :(

Asafum ,

I hope you’re right!

Asafum ,

They’re ramping up to get to 1.0 so I wouldn’t be surprised to see more of this as we get closer. They can’t be too harsh though because they still need people to test and find these kinds of exploits, they probably just banned the people that accumulated tons and tons of money doing it.

Asafum ,

That’s pretty much where I’m at. I’m 38 and supremely pathetic in the eyes of society. I’ve just accepted that I’m entirely undesirable and live how I want to, or at least live in the way I’m allowed to. In a way I’ve turned into my parents where I find myself saying “life isn’t a fairy tale” to people kinda often lol there is no “someone for everyone.”

Love is for other people.

Homeownership is for other people.

Career enjoyment is for other people.

Retirement is for other people.

It is what it is.

Asafum ,

I will always upvote scrubs! Man it’s been too long…

Asafum ,

Chocolate. Definitely chocolate. :P

Asafum ,

I could see that. I’ve been in that state for over 20 years now so “depression” just kinda became “normal.”

North Carolina Supreme Court Secretly Squashed Discipline of Two GOP Judges Who Admitted to Violating Judicial Code (www.propublica.org)

Last fall, out of public view, the North Carolina Supreme Court squashed disciplinary action against two Republican judges who had admitted that they had violated the state’s judicial code of conduct, according to three sources with direct knowledge of the decisions....

“yeah, that’s true, but I’m not no one I’m ALITO! I do what I want!”

Asafum ,

It’s really not that hard to get correct hands so I usually assume the person posting is either lazy or doesn’t know about ways to touch up an AI gen picture if I see too many fingers or weird hands.

Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI (arstechnica.com)

Microsoft is pivoting its company culture to make security a top priority, President Brad Smith testified to Congress on Thursday, promising that security will be “more important even than the company’s work on artificial intelligence.”...

Asafum ,

fucking seriously! Reading this absolutely disgusted me.

Asafum ,

A-fucking-men.

It’s fodder for the propagandists to shout at you all night. To manipulate you into voting Republican because they make you so mad about a reality that doesn’t exist or that they invented themselves for you to be mad at. They take Twitter morons and say that person is everyone on the left…

It’s all culture war bullshit to distract you from fighting for actual causes that are directly affecting ALL OF US.

Asafum ,

Same. I’m not buying an entire console just for Zelda.

Same with Sony. I’m not buying a PS5 for final fantasy.

Fuck you Nintendo. Fuck you Sony.

Asafum ,

Doesn’t matter, as with all lies fox news gets their bullshit message to yell and Republicans will eat it up fighting wage increases even harder now that they have “proof”

Asafum ,

American Internet companies are fucking disgusting.

Their speed rates are just throttling speed, yet just this year they got rid of my 300mbs plan ($80/month) and forced me into a 500mbs plan ($110/month!!!) without saying a word. I had it on auto pay and just happened to check to make sure it’s still going through…

That should be fucking illegal, but this is America: land of the fee home of the billionaire.

Asafum ,

Probably just for the algorithm, but then again I don’t know much about how Twitter actually works.

I never cared for the idea of telling the world when I’m going to take a shit or some other completely pointless thing nor do I care to see when Major Company takes a shit either.

Asafum ,

it has completely taken the wind out of the “Joe Biden controls the justice system to persecute his rivals” narrative

Says who? When in their entire history have they been logically consistent? They’ll still argue it’s rigged even if every single Democrat was arrested because one of their own got caught too.

Asafum ,

“he is executed because they wanted to use his blood in a jew ritual at a pizza hut to make DEI trans children more susceptible to democrat pedos.”

Fixed!

Asafum ,

that’s a haiku.

Though I’m not very good.

My haikus suck.

Asafum ,

Albert Einstein often gets misquoted as saying “the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.”

What he actually said was “the definition of insanity is whatever the hell the DNC “leadership” is doing.”

DNC Leadership

Asafum ,

That all makes too much sense so obviously that’s not what we’re going to get.

We’re going to get whatever makes the assholes in power the most money and whatever keeps bibi out of trouble as his legal troubles are postponed untill “major operations are over.”

Asafum ,

drinks the blood.

NOW I HAVE YOUR WATER!!

Asafum ,

You could afford to work part time remotely

If you’re a professional that even has that option. Factory workers and blue collar schmucks like myself are chained to a radius around available work :(

Asafum ,

All I’m learning from the last 10 years between musk and that orange fuck among others is that starting a cult is really the way to go…

You end up with tons of money, those that could enforce repercussions are held hostage, and you get worshipers.

Vimms Lair is getting removal notices from Nintendo etc. We need someone to help make a rom pack archive can you help? (slrpnk.net)

Vimms lair is starting to remove many roms that are being requested to be removed by Nintendo etc. soon many original roms, hacks, and translations will be lost forever. Can any of you help make archive torrents of roms from vimms lair and cdromance? They have hacks and translations that dont exist elsewhere and will probably be...

Asafum ,

This is America, the only law that is enforced is ownership by means of a monetary transaction.

“Ownership” by public nature is laughed at.

C.R.E.A.M :(

Asafum ,

Thanks for sharing that, i’ve never seen that one! Ken M is a gem lol

Asafum ,

It’s 10000x better in the blue collar world because right off the bat you’re assumed to be as useless as a person can possibly be so you either do the futile argue for a raise (which never matches what you should get) or you take a huge pay cut when finding a new job…

I’ve been stuck in the same cycle for 15 years now… Get shitty raises for 5 years, get burned out and bail, take massive pay cut, prove my worth to get back to shitty wage I left for but am now burned out again, find a new job and take another massive pay cut etc etc… adjusted for inflation I make as much now as I did 10 years ago…

These articles are always about white collar work. :(

Asafum ,

Every single time I see this type of conversation come up it’s always about the more privileged higher paying white collar work.

In my shit experience, blue collar work is “get shit raises or take massive pay cuts.” There is no “change job and also make more.” I’ve been stuck in the same cycle for 15 years now… Every time I leave a job I get knocked back to the wage I made when I first started the job I left regardless of the new position.

But that’s because only white collar workers are seen as people. Us blue collar workers are just meat machines that never deserve more than we were “bought” for and any new employee is automatically assumed to be as intelligent and skilled as a dead cockroach.

Asafum ,

My job doesn’t like to give titles so no one can determine their value, but I’m something like a supervisor/manager/QC in a factory that makes luxury products for the ultra wealthy and the military.

Asafum ,

It’s a separate part of the company. The parts are similar but not made to be luxurious and some are just completely different things that aren’t luxury at all. I wrote the initial comment without the military part added, but I edited it to add that so I guess it kinda reads a little odd now.

I don’t think there are many companies at all that do what we do so I’m being kinda vague lol

Asafum ,

Aside from a few blind idiots I think most people are seeing those things and saying "wow Biden REALLY wants to lose huh…

Asafum ,

Fucking exactly!!

If I wasn’t bald I’d have been pulling my hair out of my head when I was seeing all this “fight for fifteen” when trying to argue for a minimum wage increase.

Ok we got that now, something like 10 years later so what is $15/hr now? It’s a joke…

Asafum ,

High Court usually gave deference to the agency to handle the details

I believe this is “Chevron Deference?”

The thing Goursich (and I believe previously his mother) wants absolutely dead. :/

Asafum ,

And like everything with our incredibly stupid system it will end up being some bullshit that Congress needs to investigate itself over so they can find they “did no wrong”…

Asafum ,

They already have said that’s the plan. They want to go after Biden and his family, Obama (they can’t fucking get over that guy…) and whoever else was a part of any investigation of Republicans.

Turn on fox news and watch the fucking propagandists go from practically in tears talking about trump, to literally frothing rage ranting about how all Democrats need to be jailed…

Asafum ,

I really don’t like living with dogs to be honest. I can love and play with your dog, but I never want to live with one.

Pro: no constant barking, no chewed up stuff, no jumping and ignoring personal space, no begging, no dead babies.

Cons: dating site profiles have shown me over the years that 99.99999999999% of women are almost literally obsessed with dogs. Or at least that percentage of women who also use dating sites… :(

Asafum ,

The training is really the biggest issue, I’d need to be completely in control of that. I’ve dated people in the past with the whole “oh but he’s too cute I can’t not do XYZ thing!” and their dog would drive me crazy.

Asafum ,

Oh don’t worry it’s for each 1/3 so it’s 120+ hours!

Asafum ,

The article did mention that it’s affecting those that are renting because those with the house that is now “too small” can’t sell it as the interest rates are too good to give up and the new larger house they’d want is now like 2x as expensive as it was in the past. That means that the house they have now won’t become available for someone like me who’s looking to buy a “starter home” so I, and people like me, are stuck renting forever.
