100% agreed. The fact that it’s possible to deport someone who has lived in America for decades just for getting laid off is absurdly cruel.

Definitely seems like they want the layoff from my position in the industry.

The tech megagiants are massively reallocating their budgets from “paying people for new product development” to datacenter build-outs, under the belief that AI will fundamentally restructure all knowledge work into property you can own and extract rent from.

Unfortunately the industry is completely non union and a good chunk of employees are on H1B or TN visas where they will get deported if they get fired. That really puts a damper on wanting to rock the boat.

Expect things to get less stable and shittier over time as this trend continues.

They were forced to as the result of an antitrust settlement in 2009, and then the “remedy” expired 5 years later and they ripped it out

Kroger also does that :(

I’m holding out some hope, since twitch is live but YouTube is pre-buffered, but they could still block loading past the ad on a timer or a key computed from hashing the decoded frames of the ad, idk

Not to sell out my community but I know quite a few people whose condom use went down after they got on PrEP

Why couldn’t Biden have gotten the fun kind of dementia instead of the Everywhere at the End of Time kind of dementia

I’m glad we’re in agreement

Most garage doors I’ve encountered use rolling codes so you can’t even do that safely 😭

Honestly it would be kinda cute, if not for the slang meaning…

Sounds like we’re reinventing forum moderation and media literacy from first principles here.

Usually they are barred from selling immediately following an IPO because it looks really bad and can trigger a price drop with everyone selling all at once

Seconded as gaza being a testing ground for oppressive techniques and technologies!

Not a doctor, but I do suffer from thoracic outlet syndrome. Numbness after sleeping or while using a phone was one of the only symptoms I got before my blood clots.

Sometimes this would be the full arm and sometimes just in the ulnar nerve (outside of palms and pinkie + ring finger).

Maybe try doing the roos stress test at home and talking to a doctor if you get symptoms. If left untreated you may end up with permanent venous and/or nervous system damage (like me).

Obviously this isn’t the only thing that can cause numbness in your arms after sleeping. I’m just spreading the word on TOS because it’s what I’m familiar with, and because I wish someone had done so for me years ago!

As I remember it, reddit got its start when “internet culture” was pretty heavily downstream of 4chan/somethingawful/ytmnd. And pedo-type behaviour was pretty normalized in those spaces.
