There’s a new iMessage for Android app — and it actually works

  • Sunbird worked - I was in the beta - but it turned out to have no encryption whatsoever. I am skeptical.

    • Shouldn't minimum wage just increase proportionately to inflation?

    Jump

  • I put to you that minimum wage should be the minimum amount people need to live and that companies that can't cope with that overhead should go out of business or adjust their business plan accordingly because otherwise they are causing harm to their employees.

    I do understand that will indeed increase unemployment for a time, but there are many major corporations with record profits whose bottom tier employees are already subsidized by the government because they can't afford to live.

    I think we do need a better support structure to help people who are unemployed for any reason. I get that this all puts stress on companies, but in 2023 companies need to face more pressure to care for the people who make their profit possible, IMO.

    Minimum wage needs to be tied to inflation because otherwise it is divorced of meaning and no longer keeps our fellow citizens alive.

    • Those of you with lesser-known types of jobs...what do you do?

    Jump

  • Do you feel like your job is on the whole fair? I have often wondered if claims investigators either come to believe most claimants are lying or, conversely, that insurance companies are exploiting people.

    • Conservative parents look to exit public schools after progressives dominate board elections

    Jump

  • They want to ruin public education and have it pay for private school so no one's child might learn anything they seem progressive. That's been the game plan, that's what DeVos was working on - underpaid teachers and a stifling censorship environment causing teachers and students to leave public Ed is by design.

    • Are you cancelling streaming services?

    Jump

  • It's been a long time since I've gone sailing. I do have Plex running but I don't want to unsafely sail. I see some folks do alternate streaming but I'm sick of relying on a service that will yank things away, I want to store stuff.

    • Are you cancelling streaming services?

    Jump

  • I'd like to yarr, especially anything no longer available via any streaming, but I'm well past my Napster days and pretty positive I'll screw it up, either privacy wise or safety wise.

    I do know how to avoid keywords after that ISP-reddit court debacle, tho...
