I don't oppose the corporation, but I dislike some of the things we make. If they ask me to work on something I object to then I'll worry about it then.

Even emails cost tokens. I've added money to accounts of people I went to school with and said hi. It's a fuckin' racket.

I gotchu bro. I hate most mushrooms, but I'll give 'er a go.

You have a right to bear arms. No guise needed.

Fuck that. The kid will have an entire lifetime of the government taking his money. People should be in jail and the kid should be a multi-millionaire.

Remember, if you jaywalk it voids your right to self defense.

He ran away from the assailants each time and didn't shoot the one guy until he pointed the pistol at him again. His actions show you're completely full of shit. Those guys would be fine if they didn't choose to attack an armed kid.

Go old school: IRC.

I don't have a lot of allies here, but I may pick a lefty instance because I prefer your comrades over liberals, too.

For those of us that have used Sync for a long time it has a lot of ui/ux options and we know how to find them.

If someone wants to use a weird definition for a word and hit me because of that they're prolly someone I wouldn't spend a lot of time talking to anyway.

Guys is gender neutral.

He's smart, just not in the way a populist politician needs to be. What he is, though, is a fucking ghoul. His service has some pretty fucked up shit regarding torture regimes at gitmo.

Demonstrate away my friend.

I tried reading it twice and didn't finish either time.

National defense is the fifth on that chart by percent. Everything above it is entitlement spending. Looks like income security is where welfare falls - it's a little over half. The other half is other forms of payouts to peeps.

You can show him something and have him deny it moments later and there's no way of divining if he's lying, a moron, that fucking narcissistic or all of the above.

The chemical stuff is tough. I mean, viscerally, you've got smells that at least tell our brain to avoid it sometimes, but mostly the threat isn't immediate enough to make an impact. Solvents dry out your skin at which helps for some. It's just hard to make someone think that walking to a tool crib or supply cabinet is worth it over ten seconds of exposure. I'm that way with solvents (IPA and MPK).

It's getting better slowly. I get it for some things, though. If you've been running a manual mill for 30 years, a little piece of plexiglass isn't going to make you any safer and we waste effort on dumb shit like that too often. It makes it harder to get people to do some of the other things. Coming into the industry when I did helped. Watching a bunch of guys retire broken or die working has an impact.

As much as I hate heavy-handed policies, having large areas that are hearing protection required seems to work alright. There's no question about the sound level of a certain task or any room to argue. I managed to shake hands with my boss, his boss, then our director with a pair of ear plugs for each within a span of about 30m once. They didn't think it was as funny as I did. The look on their face when they saw what I put in their hand was priceless, though.

Are you familiar with the hexavalent chromium changes a few years ago? Those of us in aircraft were exposed to it daily in paints with no PPE then they're all "oops. We're cutting exposure limits by 100". And, of course, aircraft mechanics refuse to follow controls because we've done it this way for decades. It's the only thing that has the corrosion resistance properties needed for aircraft, so here we are.
