The story had feeling of being written by committee. I think that was it’s only real problem.

That depends on how bad things need to get.
As a stepping stone to an octo-fold phone? Yes.
One of my favorite movies is Josie and the Pussy Cats. Check it out. If you can’t see the product placement, you might be literally blind.
And if you watch to the end, you’ll understand the product placement is part of the pointof the movie.
Don’t forget the RR workers union, and their members. It’s not just Biden
Me neither. Just had fun watching a fun movie.
Yes.
No.
Yes.
Yes.
I started buzzing my hair down to an 1/8th inch when I was 14. Then much if it fell out in my 30s also.
I can be mad about more than one thing at a time.
But Biden trying to help some after fucking them over. That’s kind of the bare minimum. I’d say I’m only a little disappointed in that.
Yah. Eventually they got a raise, and 4 whole days of paid sick leave. They still work skeleton crews on unsafe trains, with no power over their own schedule.
Again. It’s not enough.
Rather than taking another several months it could have taken a few weeks, and they likely could’ve gotten much more.
Not well. But nobody (including Trump) ever expected him to win, and there was no real plan. Now they have Project 2025. This time things will go real bad if he gets elected.
And that temporary disaster would have forced permanent improvements to pay and working conditions. Some pain now, for gains later. That’s how most everything works.
Labor day is a holiday for all the people who died fighting for better working conditions.
I said “enough” not “nothing”. The Inflation Reduction Act goes to corpos first. Then whatever they can’t manage to skim off for themselves, will go to workers. It’s still a corpo first policy.
Replacing the parliamentarian to push through the $15 minimum wage would have been better.
The worse system is the blowing up. When things get bad enough, people will revolt to build a better system. The Jan 6th protesters imagined that’s what they were doing. But they were deluded or dumb or both. We’re not there yet. I hope we can avoid it.
Yah, it’s not smart.
Not surprised. Dems haven’t done enough lately for workers. They used to be THE worker party. But since Clinton, they’ve been nearly as deep into corpo pockets as Republicans.
Even Biden sided with the railroad corpo’s over the union.
I’ve said it before. Many Trump votes, are votes to blow up the system hoping for something new. Because it’s not working for the average person anymore.
This idea only comes from people who have never seen what this is like or how it works.
I’ve done this kind of work, as a direct care staff helping the disabled.
People with disabilities aren’t doing normal productive jobs that anyone else would do. They are being paid $1.5/hour to stuff gift bags for kids birthday parties, and the like. And they have direct care staff earning $15 to $20/hour, working right next to them to help out and keep things safe.
These laws sound good. (Accept the carve out for prisoners, not sure what’s up with that) But they won’t do anything for the disabled, beyond forcing them out of somewhat normal life routine. These jobs aren’t productive work. They’re a mental health treatment, simulating a job.
Not being sure was part of my point. We can’t be sure. But all their incentives are aligned in the right way. That’s the best we can hope for. And better than any alternative right now.
You can’t have? Or you can’t be sure?
Because you certainly can have. Just because you pay, doesn’t mean they will log your searches. In fact Kagi claim they don’t. And since their only income comes from paying users. If anyone ever found out they’re lying about that, they’d quickly loose a big chink of subscribers and income. As well as get sued for fraud. So it’s rather unlikely they do.
Unlike every other search provider, Kagi is the only one with a business model that ensures it’s users are the customer, not the product. When actually using it every day, that’s quite obvious in the results. Even when you search for a company directly, it’s Wikipedia entry is usually the first result. The the company site is the second.
The only way is a data only SIM card.
It won’t have a phone number for anyone to call or text.
Of course you can’t make calls or texts either. You have to setup some kind of SIP service is you need to.
