Some dingbat that occasionally builds neat stuff without breaking others. The person running this public-but-not-promoted instance because reasons.
Here’s another part of the equation, the owner gets enough of a share of the business profit where they can buy a new house, expand to multiple locations, buy new cars, etc.
The extra couple bucks an hour per employee is a tiny drop in the cost pool per business operational hour compared to that. They could perfectly well keep prices the same without paying sub-minimum wages by taking a smaller cut themselves.
They claim $100 B in ‘losses’ to this kind of game. Unless they’re actually running red on their books what they really mean is ‘we think we should make at least $100 B more per year’.
I’m sure that the vast majority of that would go directly to the front of house employees they’re pinning this on too, definitely not to the execs and share holders…
As ready as they’ll ever be, which probably isn’t all that ready in absolute terms…
Hey look, another person who’s bitter with everything around them and feels the need to attempt to shame everyone they see.
Probably one of the most socially friendly places I recall in recent years was a CrossFit gym. I know people shit in them as being full of cultish twats, and to some extent I won’t argue that, but compared to a standard gym there’s quite a ‘us’ rather than ‘me’ vibe to it. Find those kind of places where people look to support and improve each other rather than show off what they know or can do.
Though I’m about the least socially apt person around one thing that really has stuck out to me, don’t go there with a goal other than to do the thing. If you go with the goal of a date you’re gonna be disappointed, go with the intent of doing what you like instead.
The children of atom have come to your lands…
So pretty much one of those smart speaker things with a pin on it, for hundreds of $$$ and a subscription to boot? What a great idea…
I’ve never heard of this thing, is it supposed to do what the analyze this picture or ID the song playing features of my phone already could do, or is there something novel I’m missing?
Been a while since I used it, but what it does it does well. I wonder what the complexity is for a relatively mature app to have someone else pick up maintinance
Frankly fo my time, best gaming series ever. With a few exceptions each one stands alone as it’s own story, but there are the ever present threads that in some cases turned into almost easter-egg items in a given game. Where are Biggs and Wedge going to show up this time? Can I get my hands on a choccobo? Hey Cid, thanks for the airship…
Under 30? So basically if you can’t see anything lower than their forehead, ohhhh. 😏 /S
Indeed, I don’t particularly even want it to auto fill unless I give it the OK to do so, even if that’s as simple as a PIN.
I’ve got things worked up with bitwarden to a point where I can put in a short pin to unlock it after a timeout (usually set to 15 minutes) and it will pretty well always work so long as the fields for where the user/pass go are found cleanly.
Similar concept?
The first restrictions would be more a ‘wink and nod’ restriction. If the US came out and said go ahead and have fun then Russia get’s a green light to say it’s now a war with NATO at large.
Israel, now that’s a more ‘WTF are you doing’ situation. Israel for all practical purposes is a direct surrogate of the US and not already entangled with Russia, and better off keeping it that way. Be even better off if they would stop trying to expand their borders by removing neighbors too, but you can pretty well guarantee that expanding their war won’t help anything for anyone.
A vote is a vote, but that’s not the solution I spoke of. Rather than trying to push people to disengage or vote 3rd party, neither of which will make any meaningful difference to the situation (even in the million to one chance some 3rd party did get elected, they’re a politician and will do politician things), why not take the situation into your own hands and create the company run by someone who won’t behave like a capitalist?
Create the next Google, but you can be the one who really follows the “don’t be evil” mantra and in the process usurp the throne from the capitalists who have gone wrong. Once that is done you have the ability to simply hand the reigns over to anyone working there and walk away knowing the problem of that particular market is now solved.
The amusing thing about the people who complain that capitalists are the root of all problems, they don’t make an effort to correct it.
Take the situation of this story. If your ideals are pure and would have the popular support of a critical mass of people, there is absolutely not one thing preventing the establishment of a company, chartered as a public good corporation, and ran as a non-profit entity to provide these kind of material goods for people at cost, or if someone is willing to subsidise the production even less so if you like. You could even get the seed money from a crowd sourced campaign, or so called ‘angel investors’ no strings attached, no ownership stakes to distribute.
You get a full podium sweep, gotta do some acrobatics to be on all the spots for the pics though.
Oh come on, you think some would do that? Go in the internet and tell lies?
I mean it is or at least should be a policy on most sites already, it’ll be nice to have some teeth beyond banning their accounts though.
They didn’t say how big a carton. I’d say anything up to a quart is fair game without some eyeballs on you.
Huh, small rabbit hole there, wasn’t aware there was a special baby blood type. So basically someone who has the luck to have dodged what sounds like a super common virus all their life gets to have special uses for their donations.
