Cool. If they allow views while using ad-blockers I’m in.

All this is correct. But I’ll also add the following:

Most people probably DGAF if their password for work is compromised. They have no skin in the game for whatever their data entry or email is for BigCorp, they’re treated like “monkey push button, monkey get banana,” forced to jump through password hoops and they’re sick of doing it every few weeks or months. So they use the simplest they can get away with and the easiest to remember so they don’t have to call some corpo IT help desk that will roll their eyes at yet another password reset.

We can make all the rules we want, but the rules don’t matter.

Lack of spines in people we expected to enforce our rights got us here. It’s no good making more rules when the ones we have are ignored.

Should be easy enough to trace specialties that interacted with aviation fuels. From maintenance to fuelers and the rest.

Should be easy to corroborate with civilian fuelers and maintainers as well.

Return to thread and complain that people are clueless and directing you to a useless resource. Mod locks thread and threatens you with a ban.

Just get one queen size.

If anyone’s interested, Bon Appétit had a “Gourmet Makes” or something where one of their chefs would recreate snacks like Oreos, Pop Tarts, and others. They look great. I tried a version of the oreos, mine were nowhere near as pretty, but the taste is so much better.

F’d.

Probably get spawnkilled.

Just standard modern conservatism. Wrecking people’s lives is worth catching the cast majority of people doing nothing wrong. But you might.

“Record Profits”

I tried watching a how-to video on YT today.

It say “playback not supported on this device”.

Probably thanks to my ad-blocking efforts.

Fuck youtube. Can’t get views if the video never plays.

They’re driven by cruelty.

Companies don’t make anything new anymore. All the amazing leaps in design and technology we’ve enjoyed over the last multiple decades are finished. They cost too much…a negative expense on quarterly report.

What’s cheap and effective? Shrinkflation. Cutting employee benefits. Stagnating wages. Decreasing quality. Removing employees and replacing them with AI or other automation. Cutting customer service. Forcing people to use apps. Finding new ways to unbundle, insert fees, or force another middleman between customers and what they want.

It’s a perverse Matrix, the “coppertop” is us, and they’re extracting everything they can from us to keep their system going and the line moving up.

The internet isn’t the internet anymore. It’s walled off, corporatized, and exclusionary.

The internet used to be for people.

Now it’s for profit.

“Show me how the conclusion I’m starting with is correct.”

What optometrist’s office do you go to that will fit lenses to frames they don’t sell? Used to be the one I went to would fit new lenses to your old frames, but nobody does that anymore because they want to force you to buy new everything.

The irony is Wayne had stupid amounts of money and chose to use personal violence to stop some of the criminals in Gotham rather than funding programs that would have lifted people out of poverty and prevented far more crime, or running for office himself and setting up oversight to stop corruption and programs to offer a hand up to people.

“Starting to be personally affected by their vote and are upset about that part, but not about everyone else being put in concentration camps or shot in the street.”

Made you all say it 3-4 times in your heads to figure out how to pronounce the “gen” part.

Peeing oneself at a concert has a long history.

Not sure if shitting oneself has the same background.
