“Wins”, really? That’s a disgusting way of putting it. He’s compensated for time spent in prison, but the time will be forever lost.

Aye, I missed that bit. Still annoying that something that was ad free has ads. But that’s more sensible.

I agree they make it seem exceptionally dramatic, but I do understand the annoyance of having a service included (an email address) and soon I need to pay for it. That is extremely annoying.

You can always buy a domain, and let a service take care of email hosting for you. Lots of email providers allow this.

Precisely, me and my wife have switched email providers several times while keeping the same address.

It was ok. Not great, not bad. Definitely the weakest one.

Not quite out the roof, but I had on cat that climbed into my apartment and now it lived there (I did check if someone owned it).

As for the reason I brought up Facebook moderation is, what do you think is usually posted there? Minion memes? Photos from trips? Well those moderators are often subjected to beheadings, rape, and other very graphic content. Do you think that was explicitly stated when they got hired?

No likely not, and Facebook clearly deserves a proper reckoning. But I don’t see how this relates or makes it ok.

And I am not making any arguments whatsoever on whether or not she should actually have to see "comments from people talking about how they wanted to fuck me and my co workers.".

Would you say LTT/LMG sells itself as a channel about sex or porn or the likes? No, it’s a tech channel and as such one would expect tech related social media. You could state that the function of the job is unchanged, but the job content is also relevant here.

The kind interactions (including pictures and such) you get on OF vastly differs what you will get on other platforms. That’s not in the job description.

And to your last point, she was a social media manager, not a Facebook moderator. How does that compare? Are you intentionally making bad faith arguments?

Because the internet is exceptionally shit against women in particular, and because she clearly stated she didn’t want to do it.

This is kinda basic stuff.

I have moved to a new country myself (from within Europe to within Europe). I feel such articles often underestimate how important culture and language is for us to work together. Beyond just skills and education. Ironically though, employment is a quick way to learn how to fit in.

Yeah this feels like a strange combo. Like it’s one of those meals where someone added meat because all meals must have them.

The toasts look great tho.

In the Netherlands, I want to say that Apple Maps is actually better than Google… but only if you’re driving.

For some insane reason they don’t have biking maps here (or at least in all the places I’ve tried) which is such an enormous blunder.

It really is. Luckily it’s a skill that can be trained.

I’ve only skimmed your comments, but I think a factor is also that a lot of them are really hard to read.

Examples I see are weird sentence structure, the lack of paragraphs for longer messages, the lack of capitalisation, and rather odd/hyperbolic use of words (writing in the same way you’d speak?). This “style” just gets interpreted as “noise” when I’m reading it, which will get downvoted as it doesn’t contribute.

English isn’t my first language either (it’s not even my second or third!) so I understand it’s very hard to get these things right. But without sufficient clarity you will get downvotes, as it just comes off as noise.

Yeah same. I see a mix of positive and negative.

Staat dat het vanwege minder vracht en dalende tarieven zijn. Dat verbaast mij eigenlijk niet, ik ken bijna niemand die goede ervaring heeft met DHL (inclusief mijzelf). Op dit moment bestel ik niet meer dingen als DHL de enige keuze zijn.

Sure, had plenty worse but I feel by modern standards it can be quite frustrating at times.

Score! Yeah, it’s a concern for mine too. Thanks for sharing!

I really loved this game but having played it again not too many years ago, it does have several “sins” of the genre like overly cryptic puzzles and pixel hunting.

But the atmosphere is really top notch.
