Ok, so a few points, from a lifelong industrial OEM technician:

First of all, there's nothing wrong with factory jobs IF your employer takes care of its workers, that's a big "if" but one all the world's workers should take care of, since manufacturing is of course one of the biggest areas of employment and it's not going away anytime soon.

My job, working for an equipment manufacturer, can be quite enjoyable and well paid, again depending on the employer, I'd advice any technically inclined individual to look into it. St the same time, I'd never work as a maintenance tech in a factory, that's usually a very stressful job, with emergency work in poor condition, often pushed to work unsafely because of the rush, on old machines often dirty or in poor repair.
Still, I've seen some people make quite a comfortable position in that setting, so it may not be all bad.

As for pay, I think pay should depend mostly on 3 factors: effort, skill and comfort. Those who work harder, are more skilled and are forced into unpleasant settings should be paid more. If you want a more comfortable job you cannot expect to make more than a good, equally skilled worker who's in noisy, dangerous or disgusting environments, and so on.

I don't understand the intergenerational employment point, that sounds sorta dystopic and has no connection to the rest of the argument.

Still, safety standards were far from ideal at that time

No flouride in Florida?

Well, you're probably right, but they could also work on two things at a time, it's not like Valve is a single person...

Switch is more portable and also easier to dock.

Germans' hate for electronic payments strikes again

And then remove part of it a year later when it transfers to him

I suggest Navidrome

'cause protestantism is a weak-ass religion. Catholicism is where the real money and power is

eh, it's not all root... /etc and /var are RW

did three major version upgrades so far and they have been flawless.

To be fair, I've upgraded normal Fedora for like.. 8-10 versions in a row maybe, and never had a problem

Holy shit can you guys read the article please? It's an existing standard and a dedicated keycode

Virt-manager works ok

And why would that be the determining factor in industrial production?

It's mostly a gimmick.

dark industry

is that a music genre?

We have industries that make all sorts of stuff, what's more we have industries that make the machines for making stuff.

If they're still on Xitter it means they approve of this

As an European I hope we can capitalize on this, Russia is cut off from western suppliers and the US is cut off from... Probably everyone? Time to manufacture! Better not let the Chinese have the whole pie.

And someone decided it was a good idea to hire him

Maybe they hoped for someone more competently evil?

People are interesting, "average" is a misleading concept, you can find quirks and intriguing oddities in pretty much anyone. Perhaps you're frequenting the wrong circles in regards to what interests you.
