  • No, no, you see, it’s actually so empowering for the worker because they can quit at any time with no notice! Isn’t that so empowering! In fact, I almost think that the balance of power goes too far in the workers favor on this and we need to give some of it back to the poor employers who are just always walking on eggshells since they can be quit on at any time!

    /s just in case

    It’s so insane that anyone can argue that at-will employment is anything other than a shitty employer’s wet dream.


  • When I installed fdroid from their website a month or two back it was like 2 or 3 clicks. Then whenever I want to install anything from there it’s an extra click or two over what it would be from Play.

    I’ve seen people click through way more complicated processes than this without even knowing they did it. Modern computing has taught people to just keep hitting whatever the approval text is (yes windows, I really do want to copy all of these god damn files. Yes, really, I still do! Yep, again, ALL of them!)


  • I’m a millennial that doesn’t like avocado at all, so, speaking of disgraces!

    We managed to get a house, but there are also 3 of us with no kids, I can’t imagine managing with two people in todays economy. We got in just before the rates skyrocketed in 2021, the house price is basically what the inflation calculators say the original owners bought it for decades ago, so, there’s that at least, that we only paid the equivalent of the original list price for a 5-6 decades old house with decades of shoddy repairs such as every single plug with a ground having the ground pin tied to the neutral!

    It’s a real rough time out there right now though with ownership out of the realm of possibility for so many :-\
