you should really get rid of the assumption that the 1% have to deal with any of the problems they force on everyone else. rich people have their own separate existence. they live in rich-people-only neighborhoods. they park in rich-people-only parking lots. they go on vacation in rich-people-only parts of the world. their kids go to rich-people-only schools.

in effect, no, they do not live on the same planet. they live on rich-people-only planet, and one of their core purposes in life is to keep themselves there, while keeping everyone else out.

when due process is completely ignored, then you can be pretty sure that “legal” has no meaning anymore. especially seeing as how the people who are supposed to be enforcing these “laws” are the ones who are ignoring them

i had assumed that PDs already had all this. either way, they’ve got your DL photo on file, so it’s not like you weren’t already in there

edit: nevermind, i misunderstood and thought the AI co was giving images to the PD. this is fascist nazi bullshit

switched to tidal months ago and haven’t looked back. spotify offers absolutely nothing that can’t be gotten from another music streamer and without all the shitty bullshit of spotify. unless you just simply can’t live without podcasts

also way too many prequels

we’ve always been at war with eurasia

ok. the reasons someone might actually want to go to work in the office (e.g., can’t interact with people who aren’t getting paid to interact) are not the same reasons CEOs want to force you to work in the office (control; oversight; subjugation)

trump could sell bowls of diarrhea with his name on it for $1000, and his sucker cultist followers would take out loans to buy it

i’m skeptical of any study that concludes anyone would rather deal with all the bullshit of working in the office rather than wfh

no one goes to work for the “community,” which can also be gotten literally anywhere other than work

sounds like something corporate slavedriving senior executives decided they wanted a “study” on to prove people want to work in the office

they will keep pushing people and pushing them and pushing them, until there is an actual uprising (not these protests that trump is calling “rebellion,” but real sustained violence), which is what the fascists want: an excuse to switch to live ammunition. then it will be curfews, “papers please” checkpoints, and massacres

if you’re skeptical, just look at some history, and try to find a reason why this won’t be the case

keep yourself and your family safe

as a dude, my observation is women want to date as much as ever–just not redhat douchebag morons

my bad. i’m glad it works for you

lol sorry, “i’m fine with this-- whatever you’re doing must be wrong”

google “facebook mental health” and you’ll get an idea. if you’re fine using it, that’s great. but not everyone is like you. and the “i’m fine with this–everyone else should be too!” attitude is one thing i saw constantly on facebook.

edit: notice in my original comment i spoke of my own experience, not anyone else’s, nor what anyone else should spend their time and attention on

having been on facebook since ~2009 it was undeniably hard to quit, but finally deleting it (not ‘deactivating’) last year was one of the best things i’ve ever done for my mental health

brilliant! jolly good show mate

impressive. but i bet they can’t go down for a whole forever

i’m brand new to linux after decades of windows. is there a comprehensive resource that talks about security on linux beyond just “linux is super secure don’t worry about it”? i feel like the more people continue to ditch windows, the more scammers are going to focus their energy on linux, and i know next to nothing

edit: thank you for all the responses

lol we couldn’t even prepare for fascist takeover of the country. why tf would anyone think we’d be prepared for a solar firestorm

that’s why i burned all my teen diaries–every day is a new me!
