Sounds like the end justifies the means, which is itself a tricky statement. Though I think I know what you're saying.

Before you commit to that statement remember that peaceful protests work about 1% of the time.

Ya but it blocks non-porn content too. Someone mentioned a 'porn' flag and that would be more useful.

I work at an NGO and you could argue that they are 'one of the good ones'. They work us into the ground from the goodness in their hearts. The motivation at C-suite is that they want to get as much work done as possible because it seems important. If your job helps to save lives then you want to be really efficient. Profit companies have different goals but the motivation to improve efficiency remains.

Technology enables it. As productive as my company is today I know that we are well behind where we could be. Recent developments in AI have set a brand new horizon to reach towards. These forces aren't going away anytime soon. It makes you want to move faster.

We need to incentivize companies to put more money into people. I think this is something that government has the power to do. There is definitely a way to make sure a company hires two people, pays them salary of two people, and they do the job of one person by working 25 hours a week.

Nah that's not it for me, but just that it will be the next generation whose will have it worse.

I know, but I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of it.

I won't argue about the science because there's no argument left for that, but if you think money or technology is a magic formula that will shield us from climate change you're putting a lot of faith in something with very little certainty.

tldr high paying job, low COL area. Not everyone can work in IT. I'd say most people don't want to, other than the pay it sucks.

I

• work in IT
• lived at home to save money
• bought a small condo
• no other debts
• therapist
• crazy high COL
• always frugal
• am stressed

This is most companies post-pandemic. Some went remote, but most returned to office in some kind of hybrid situation. My company does a 1x per week, and most people don't adhere to it.

I understand the value of working in an office, but I wish our society would choose to pursue improving the quality of our lives instead of increasing productive capacity. It's never enough. These companies always want more.

We can do our jobs just fine, even great, at home. But they want to squeeze everything out of their workers.

I can't stand those companies who effectively pitch these braindead implementations to management. I'm fighting a $50k "turnkey zero trust" implementation this month.

I'm looking for a router that I can access using 192.168.x.x and does not require me to create an account and share data to access. So not Netgear.

Damn dude how many times are you going to post in this thread. There are places you would feel more at home. You will get the same response here every time. Try 4chan, voat, truth social, reddit, or one of the defederated right wing communities.

His plan is to tear the company down to the ground and then try to make a new social media site from the ashes with different branding. Maybe something in red.

I've made some dumb comments and posts and no one has yelled at me yet. It's really nice. I'm just here to chill and not get worked up.

Hope every else is having a good weekend.

Literally our entire human civilization occurs during a stable climate. If the earth were hotter we'd probably never have reached 8 billion, or if we did it would have been through another way. This is going to be a rough ride, especially for the kids.

Adapt or die, basically.

Elderly and homeless

Someone else brought it up, but the idea that this is a "common" incident during summer and if the population has increased 30% then you'd expect some correlation with the number of incidents.
