My IP shows a city 100 miles away from where I am

Sorry, can’t hear you.

Literally all arguments against UBI are based down to “but, but- The workers will have a leverage!”

Something I was really looking for was being able to Sync Newpipe with some interface on my desktop, this sounds great and maybe you could implement that as well?

Just use the Messenger app or messenger.facebook.com then, you won’t see Threads promotions nor be exposed to other Facebook stuff

Do these terms actually come from racist backgrounds, or did they come up as a coincidence?
It just feels weird someone would think of a way to degrade black people then decide to use blacklist for things they don’t want, then engineers decide to use master and slave to piss off black people whatever. Is that literally the history behind it?

I’m thinking of making an Android app with electron (NC I don’t know Java Kotlin whatever lmao) is performance that bad?

What does this actually mean? Can you literally sit on the desk all day, doing nothing or mess everything up, and your employer has to pay you still?
Performance evaluation is a pretty broad word

They actually have many options, no way Amazon is the only employer that would employ them, and they chose Amazon probably because it’s actually the least evil of options or somewhat “better” in something. It doesn’t have to be actually better in terms of work or pay etc. but perhaps how easy it was to commute (though I heard Amazon has plenty of work benefits actually)
Now other employers have to compete because they need an employee too. So they try to one up Amazon. If they get good enough Amazon will lose too many employees and have to one up the other employers. etc.

Ok but this clearly doesn’t seem to work well, right? Wages stagnating and harsh work etc. This is probably related to many factors but I guess job security is a big one, people don’t job hop as much and fear getting fired homeslessness etc. Another one is too many potential employees to choose for limited spots (with the increasing levels of automation in every kind of work), so much that employers can actually down on their work conditions and say “ok then, whoever can stand these conditions for this price can work here”.

I’m not some economist or something but I believe UBI or some derivative of it at least would be the leverage for that. If someone who just got fired were to receive 1000$ per months on top of their current savings for 24 months, they won’t be so much of a risk and won’t be inclined to work in a 1200$ per month job either. We don’t actually need this constant race of upping minimum wage and many other band aid regulations if that could be a thing.

To layman’s terms, people used to make 5 children and 3 of them would die. Then this mortality has dropped. People still make 5 children. The country has too much children. The country is really young and very few per capita are susceptible to covid.

The opposite happens in Western countries. Old people don’t die. People don’t make children anymore. Population is really old, covid really affects a lot of people per capita.

I know more about US politics than my own country politics and this is pretty blessing imo, it’s like so depressing and toxic

I recently looked up LA and SF and then other American cities in general for the first time on Google Earth. How much you could be allergic to apartments to let that happen? It’s just really incredibly weird all these houses spaced out like nothing. I’d be really utterly surprised if US cities didn’t have a rent problem with such a city design.

Why people are favoring secession of states over literal election results? Do you think Texas and Florida or Idaho or whatever is filled with republicans? Have you ever looked up the popular vote on these states?

How did Elon help Ukraine? Just asking bc never heard of one instance

7 billion is not just “cost of business” for Google lmao
Some of you are so out if touch from this world if you think Google isn’t really concerned about such an amount

mastodon is too silent :(
