[To preempt the obvious objection, I’m talking about e.g. a private residence, not a business.]

No, clearly not, as I already addressed. Fuck off.

Is this about the wedge cut out of the top, or was there something before that that I should feel upset about?

makes a big deal of telling new hires that they can be let go for any reason with no notice because if this

Purely out of curiosity, does he still expect people to give 2 weeks notice (or any notice) when they quit?

I would argue that in private spaces, absolutely. The owner of a private space has the exclusive right to admit anyone they choose and bar anyone they choose, based on any criteria they wish. [To preempt the obvious objection, I’m talking about e.g. a private residence, not a business.]

I’d argue this is doubly true for support group style groups. If there’s a support group for a topic that is exclusively experienced by one sex, I don’t think it’s at all unreasonable to make that group exclusively for that sex. (Examples might be testicular or ovarian cancer sufferers.)

When they don’t report on it, people complain that they’re in Trump’s pocket and won’t report on anything negative about the regime, etc.

When they do report on it, people complain that they’re just telling us what we already know and etc., etc.

What are they supposed to do?

Send the Gestapo to disappear you in the middle of the night, maybe…

The word ‘terrorist’ has lost all meaning at this point.

I would even go a step further and say that cops’ testimony should not even be accepted if they don’t have bodycam footage to back it up. When you have a camera that’s able to verify anything you need it to, the absence of that verification should be viewed through the lens that you specifically did not want whatever was happening during that time to be recorded.

Worth noting if you take this advice: SteamOS (and Bazzite, recommended elsewhere) are immutable distros, which, to over-simplify it to an extreme degree, limits your ability to install things that modify the system directly. This can be a good thing, but it can also make it difficult to install certain things that you might want. There are workarounds, but you might find this frustrating at first.

If you primarily game, this is probably not an issue for you except that some non-Steam games may require some extra work to run (particularly ones that, for example, require you to install .NET Framework or specific Java versions.)

Not trying to discourage you from these - they’re great OSes and the ‘downside’ of immutable distros can actually be beneficial when new to linux, as they prevent you from breaking things through inexperience, but it’s something you should be aware of up front. (FWIW I use Bazzite as my daily driver for everything, and it works fine.)

Well, I guess we’ve reached the “Disenfranchise every voter who is the minority in their state” stage; that’s neat, I guess.

Obviously ‘they started it’; it’s necessary, but everyone should be upset about this.

I disagree; “fake it til you make it” prescribes specific behavior (faking it) for a specific period of time (until you make it) but does not specify what behavior should take place (faking it or not) after that period has been reached.

If this were realistic, it would take 50-100 turns, not 1, and it would give Vic a rather stark CHA penalty during the act and for a period of time thereafter.

This seems to be a trend as if you only take into account reviews with 2+ hours of play time, Highguard’s opinions are “mixed” rather than “overwhelmingly negative”.

People who enjoy a game are more likely to have more playtime, therefore the higher the playtime in the ‘window’ of reviews that you look at, the more likely they are to skew high. This is exactly what you’d expect to see on any game, barring situations like the developers making changes that ruin a game that previously was good.

So after 2 hours of not having a good time, the game was deemed bad and negative reviews were written.

Two hours is the window for a refund, so I absolutely make a call within 2 hours. If a game - especially a new / expensive game - hasn’t engaged me within that time, I refund it and move on. I don’t have enough hours in the day to play games I don’t enjoy hoping that they’ll get good eventually. Why should anyone feel the need to do that, whether they’re giving the game the benefit of the doubt or not? It’s the MMO argument. “The game gets really good around the 100 hour mark!” I don’t care. I’m not sticking around for it. There are plenty of other games to play that are fun within the first 2 hours. If a developer expects people to slog through an unenjoyable 2+ hours to get to “the good parts”, they probably deserve the negative reviews.

This is no longer accurate.

If AI agents stick around, I feel like they’re going to be the thing millennials as a generation refuse to adopt and are made fun of for in 20-30 years. Younger generations will be automating their lives and millennials will be the holdouts, writing our emails manually and doing our own banking, while our grandkids are like, “Grandpa, you know AI can do all of that for you, why are you still living in the 2000s?” And we’ll tell stories about how, in our day, AI used to ruin peoples’ lives on a whim.

Maybe they should all take a note from the previous shutdown. Just approve everything the democrats want now, but in exchange, promise they’ll hold a separate vote on the DHS funding next month.

Thanks goodness I know where my papers are.

There’s plenty of evidence to suggest this isn’t enough. Stay safe.

This has always been my understanding of the purpose behind the signs. It removes or at least makes it harder to use the defense that you didn’t know you were trespassing.
