I often don’t like it when customer service people say this to me if I have been waiting to resolve an issue that is the company’s fault, because my waiting is barely a choice; the company screwed up and now I am ‘forced’ to spend time getting it resolved.
Only apologize or thank me when it’s personal and sincere. (The size of the business matters a lot in if the apologies or thanks feel genuine.)
Are you okay having the tables flipped and someone calling you “sis”?
Using male language as the default may not bother you and you may have no ill intent with it, but it does have a history tied to it. A history where women were seen as less than and didn’t have equal rights. Western society still uses male language slang regardless of gender (hey guys, dude, bro, bruh) and it all stems from a history of a patriarchal society. Every time we say, “hey guys” to refer to a mixed-gender group, we perpetuate patriarchy, whether we intended to or not.
Legally and overall culturally, women are still seen as less than and we still don’t have equal rights (e.g. divorce and abortion law).
Done. TeePublic is dead to me.
In the wake of worker strikes and Amazon’s continued enshittification, I have pledged to stop buying anything from them.
Capitalism is draining the life
Perhaps they have stopped thinking critically and believe that whatever is legal is ethical.
I’ll save them some time: The entire for-profit insurance, prison, and banking industries are unethical.
This should be teaching us to work at the local and state levels to change the political process.
Pets don’t want this. Don’t do stuff like this to pets for internet points or real money.
If everyone dropped their health insurance tomorrow, a lot more people would die and face bankruptcy and homelessness. People don’t want to hurt themselves in order to change the system; they want to hurt their oppressors in order to stop the oppression.
I have had trouble with it finding addresses as well. I use Magic Earth for driving because it can actually find most all the locations I search for.
the AI system will analyze their responses, time spent on tasks, and even emotional cues
That means every student is going to be recorded with a camera and microphone? Is anyone else horrified by the fact that the AI software is going to be actively watching and listening to these kids?
Or is it going to analyze typed responses only? (which is still creepy AF, btw)
I hope the next adjuster wears a mario hat in the act, I truly do.
It’s extremely likely that US citizens are going to lose many consumer protections once Orange Shitler is back in office.
Looks like North Carolina could use a political luiging.
Edit: I mean arresting all the republicans in office and charging them with terrorism. Yeah, let’s go with that.
Does the UK have anti-smoking or anti-vaping campaigns, or did they ever? That seems like a lot of people are vaping.
That’s wild!
Do you get consistently good and accurate website results with GPT?
Browser choice and presidential vote are so different from one another as to have no value in their comparison.
If you insist on crapping on third-party US American voters, please do it in the politics community in Lemmy.world.
Don’t worry, 81 house democrats voted for this bill. This guy was the only gay person to vote for it.
I agree that it’s infuriating! I downloaded an LSPosed module called CaptureSposed that overrides it.
It shouldn’t take a specific module hack on a rooted phone with a custom OS with an unlocked bootloader to get this functionality back.
But it can cause long-term and permanent damage to certain organs, and that is a pretty big reason to care. Unfortunately that fact doesn’t seem to clear the hurdle of point 3 on your list for many people.
