Almost across the board, new technology is used to spread two things: religious dogma and porn.
And the farmer’s almanac, but mostly the Bible and porn.

Not just their business practices, but also just the oculus purchase.
I already had an oculus. I was told (via press release) that I wouldn’t have any issues with not having a Facebook account…only for them to turn around a little while later and require a Facebook login.
This describes what I want - being able to have relatively blank walls/spaces that light up and fill up with content when you’re wearing the headset.
It’s social media in the technical definition - it’s a place to view media, both entertainment and news, with commentary, groups, the ability to follow someone, etc. Which makes it social.
But yeah, it’s not quite like Facebook/Instagram/LinkedIn. A little bit like Twitter though.
My concern is that if you can drop tens of billions of dollars on a single acquisition, what’s to stop you from spending “just” one billion to manipulate the situation to put your target in a vulnerable situation?
Our entire society is set up to wring out anyone who is unfortunate enough to find themselves buying anything.
And as resources get squeezed, more and more people are trying to claw at smaller and smaller pieces of the overall economic pie.
The breaking point will be catastrophic.
It’s food, so you can use a regular fork instead of a pitch.
If you want to have a meaningful conversation that might result in this changing, you will have to do that in each of the groups you subscribe to. Posting in mildlyinfuriating isn’t going to stop memes elsewhere.
Honestly, I agree with the antiboomer sentiment.
But at the same time, it is annoying when you’ve had an included service for decades that will now be worse or cost money.
Great posts. Sounds like the fascists are mad that they don’t get access to the largest instance without having to follow it’s rules.
You have set an unreasonable high threshold for when it’s acceptable to want to change the situation.
If these people were driving, they’d be irresponsible and selfish in their cars too. Right now she’s just gross. In a car, she’s a dangerous weapon.
So, protip: at the beginning of your shift, notate the number of voicemails and notify your boss. Clear out the voicemails correctly. Notify your boss.
Keep track of the time stamps from the VM envelopes. This will help your boss identify who isn’t doing their work, and is a “gentle” prompt. It may not happen immediately, but eventually there will be a bulk of data showing that it’s particular people on particular shifts.
Doesn’t help you to raise a fuss about it, but if you handle it and create documentation around it, it will either get resolved or you will be more justified in a decision to look for a new job. Or to ask for a raise/apply for a promotion/whatever.
Very unlikely. There’s a statement at the bottom that explains what the fee is. There’s a QR code at the top for more information, which OP cut off.
I doubt they went through the effort of updating their POS system, providing links to info on the receipt, and chose not to post a sign or put a note on the menu. Everywhere I have been with a service fee like this posts it, which would negate any legal issue.
Caveat emptor.
