My comment was 10,000% sarcasm. Of course they don’t add jobs, trickledown economics is a complete crock of shit lol
Bahahaha I felt that I didn’t have to add /s to the end of that, I was obviously wrong…
My take? The issue I have with the mega rich is that they (generalization here) aren’t playing by the same rules as you or I. I don’t have an issue, with not paying all of your employees 6 figures. Different jobs, skills, training, and capabilities are (and should be) worth different amounts of money. It’s important that people with good ideas, or business capabilities have avenues of expanding, bettering themselves, and enjoying the fruits of their labor.
When you pay money to write rules that are favorable to you, you become the problem. Money in politics is the problem. Imo, that has enabled all of this. Don’t have good healthcare? Likely it was lobbied for because someone wanted more money. Stuck in prison? Oh yeah, money in politics got you there. Minimum wage hasn’t kept up with inflation? Something, something trickledown-bullshit, money in politics. Kids killed in school constantly? Oh you know…FUCKING MONEY IN POLITICS.
Favorable can be lobbying against health & safety or environmental regulations because it impacts your bottom line. It is donating to political campaigns for tax cuts (you know, fucking bribery). It’s blocking minimum wage hikes to secure your bottom line.
All of that said, how people sleep at night with absurd amounts of money and minimal charity is disgusting. I don’t fault someone for enjoying an oppulant lifestyle…I do fault someone for Scrooge McDucking and hoarding cash…for what? Bragging rights? Power?
TLDR: be gaddamn ethical about it.
That’s not a dog…it’s a raccoon! Oh my god, look at that raccoon wearing a hat!
But if they lose money they can’t invest it and create jobs.
Good stuff, that’s not terrible at all, just the tinyest bit of preplanning - the phone hotspot is an excellent idea.
How have you found offline mode to work while traveling? I remember hearing early on it was a bear to use without wifi without extra steps.
I’m in the same boat as you. For me, the ability to be with other people not in front of my computer, would be my driver.
That is absolutely hilarious. They should’ve offered him @twitter in exchange, it would only be fair…
10:10 wholesome response.
Just blocked the [email protected] and my feed is soooo much better.
Really frustrating that all of those above was spammed into all of those communities.
Just rewatched this with my wife the other day, such a good movie!
This is the most interesting one I’ve read so far.
I was thinking the same thing. Maybe this year is the year I make the same jump. Really good, practical use of the tool.
User name checks out…?
How likely is a federated threads going to be used to harvest data for whatever advertising or AI purpose meta has?
Aside from ensuring their launch product has immediate content, the only reason meta would do this is for that $$.
That said, it could be a symbiotic relationship with instances who’s users aren’t super worried about that & find value from the addtl content it will surely bring.
Dedication. Hopefully you used a script lol
What phone are you using? Pixel 4A
Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities? Very happy with it. It’s still very quick - never felt a slowdown, it, was and still is cheap to buy, has a good enough camera, good enough battery life, love the back mounted finger print scanner, and is a good size.
Only real downside is it’s at the tail end of google’s security update support.
Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot? Smart phones only - Moto X, nexus 4, nexus 6, essential phone, pixel 4a. Liked all of them, but I think moto x I liked the least & essential phone I liked the most.
How often do you upgrade to a new phone? When my previous one is broken or the OS gets too slow.
What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc. Tablets is all.
Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.) No apple products. I won’t pay premium prices and I’m pretty set on the Google eco system for better or for worse. Have a few windows OS computers either that I built or use for work.
You nailed it.
