Magit has changed the workflow of my life.

I mean it had a lot to do with Iran's government kidnapping and murdering our citizens.

Iranians are an amazing people with an equally amazing history, who are currently suffering the consequences of American imperialism.

I use a teletype. My scrollback is INFINITE.

You dropped your friggin' > in another thread and I just stepped on it. Pain like Lego.

You're talking about a service, not an open source text like source code. A service can't be "open source" unless it lives on a computing block chain like Etherium or something, because actual human beings have to do things on private assets.

tankies (ie people who endorse violence as a valid path forward from right here) == marxists?? man, i don't know jack

Well, I'm not an employer. You'll have to define what "bootlicker" means to you. Go ahead, I dare you.

Are you also endorsing fraud and sabotage? It sure seems like you are.

No, it's on the same level as "make major life changes" to either a depressed person, or someone working in a non-union environment. There is no analogy needed. Sometimes you cannot make major life changes, even if it might help with significant problems. But we don't know that. It's valid advice. Unlike everything else said in this thread.

None of that elaborate rationalization you just performed changes anything. You admit you counseled something unethical, but you want to insist that reflects on OP, not on you. So now it's not just a failure of integrity, but it's also sophistry.

I know most of the comments here are from ignorant disinterested observers who aren't really thinking through what they are saying, but man. If the first thing you think of is fraud and sabotage when your employer acts within the boundaries of your contract, you're a bad person.

They drive well enough, but less well. Why be hard of hearing if you don't have to be? With no slight of the (big-D) Deaf intended.

There are two camps in this thread. On one side you have people saying to move to a workplace with a union. On the other hand you have people advising criminal retaliation, vandalism, sabotage, and fraud. And you have a problem with the unionists.

Typical of the practicality and savvy of the answers given in this thread

you're confabulating

Or, conduct yourself with integrity. Advising someone to compromise their integrity is pretty shitty.

Of COURSE they don't 100% trust fallible human beings with their multi million dollar assets and consignments. It's not insulting unless you are all up in your ego, any more than having to sign something saying that you've inspected the cargo is.

And if you do anything company doesn’t like you will be punished.

Doesn't change anything. You don't have to swim faster than the shark, you just have to swim faster than the worst trucker on staff. Just means that they have better data to make the same decisions they were already making. It's all zero-sum and if it's bad for one trucker, it's good for another who was until now going without recognition.

20 years ago truckers were offended by GPS tracking

so your recommendation is sabotage of company resources and negligent operation of a transport truck
