I keep track of prices in cost per kg (or liter) so I am not fooled by shrinkflation and so that I know when a good sale is, without having to remember all prices. Basically just have a giant spreadsheet with the numbers.
Is anyone even allowed to get over something like that and go on with their lives?
If it was a mistake and you didn't intend to actually kill anyone, then yes I think you're allowed to move on at some point and even forgive yourself for that.
Mistakes happen. Often it's just bad luck. There's no benefit in beating yourself up about it. What happened has happened and there's no going back. Grieving and regretting and feeling bad and such is normal and okay but I'd say 20 years is enough time to start thinking of forgiveness and moving on.
I just didn't have the patience for that honestly. I doubt it will make a difference.
when people start unionizing, they just fire everyone
Yea this needs to be made illegal obviously. But that's hard. And that's where it becomes political. You can't get around the fact that it is political unfortunately.
Of course it's collective bargaining, that's what I mean with "organize". I don't mean just organize within your workplace, I mean organize within entire fields and industries.
Friend, you don’t know how unions work at a core level.
This sounds kind of condescending and mean. In Denmark we have large unions that cover whole industries and fields and they work very well for collective bargaining and securing good levels of compensation, vacation and good work environments. I am myself a member of such a union. So please don't assume that I don't know how unions work.
Yea definitely don't disagree with that. I think that is a factor too. But I think it also kind of goes hand in hand. Do you have similar ideas because you organized and kind of aligned your ideas, or did you organize because your ideas are similar and you easily agreed to organize? It's kind of a chicken and egg thing.
I've also often thought that countries like the US are just too big. There's too many people to take into consideration. A country like Denmark with ~6 million people is much easier to keep track of and the governance and politics is closer to reality.
It is about politics. You need to organise yourselves better into unions. Then, you strike until you get what you deserve.
Why does Denmark and the rest of the Nordic countries have so high quality of living and happy people? Cause the people realized that you need to work together to get what you want. You need to have solidarity with your other workers to push for better compensation and work environments.
Do this, or you're doomed.
I actually don't like that feature cause it's not something the user chooses, it's up to the dev or admin (not sure which).
Why wouldn't I? It's like saying I won't drink tap water because that water was once someone's pee.
Huh? Explain for a non native speaker?
I assure you, there would not be a single atom of that human left in the soup.
Let's assume dumping half the soup every day for 2000 years. That's 2000*365 = 730,000 times you're halving the soup. Assume a human that weighs 70 kg. After the 2000 years, there'd be 70 / 2^730,000 kg left. That's 0.000... insert roughly 220,000 zeros ...0009 kg. I.e. 0, for all intents and purposes. There'd be nothing from that person left in the pot.
Downvoted for popular opinion.
Yea this has really big astroturfing vibes.
The fediverse is not really about avoiding censorship as it is about providing choice. That means the choice to listen to who you want to listen to (i.e. what servers to (de)federate from/to), the choice to post whatever you want (but you might get banned from your own instance or any other instance, that's their prerogative), the choice of administrators and moderators (i.e. which instance you sign up to and what communities you participate in).
All of that stuff doesn't really have to do with censorship directly, but it has implications for censorship. The fediverse is not built primarily to avoid censorship though, and in some cases it is made to make "censorship" (moderation) easier, rather than harder.
Wow, a legitimate use case for shorts.
Damn moderators banning fog!!1!
Here I was thinking this was some rant about the moderators of this comm lol
It's okay, apology accepted.
apparently I was flagged as a bot at one point
You don't get "flagged" as a bot, it is a user setting in your preferences. You should fix it so that you are not marked as a bot.
What do all you guys use these setups for?
