Due to being a “night owl” myself, I guess I’ve always been a little doubtful regarding circadian rhythms myself; but your explanation did a great job of boiling it all down to the most significant component parts. Thank you! I really liked your summary!
The keyword here is “Primary”; in a Primary election, you are running against one or more candidates from your own party, and if you win, your name goes onto the General ballot.
That’s a terrible argument. And love how you blame the obstructionism on the one being obstructed from accomplishing their goals.
So, no, we have already seen the action. He did something. Will the sociopathic fascist a-holes in government overturn the action ALREADY TAKEN is what remains to be seen.
Ummm, if you want??? I mean, no else said anything remotely close to that, but you do you.
Capitalism isn’t exploitative, it’s just an inconvenience? Oh, well that solves everything!
Wait, no, that’s actually incomprehensibly moronic. F*** your defense of such an evil and exploitative system.
I’ve always figured a company will go public before enshitification truly gets underway. It’s kinda the first step of the process.
I guess my argument is that until that pressure to appease the stockholders exists, there’s not a whole lot of motive to justify enshitification. It’s hard for me to imagine the process happening any other way.
So, I suppose you can count my vote as being that going public will likely come first. Just my two cents, though, and I don’t know anything anyway! :-p
I’m a little bit confused by your post. Publicly-traded companies, by and large, place extraordinary emphasis on short term, quarter by quarter profit. Seems like a very strong contender for the root cause if the issue?
Enshitification is about monetization, getting more money from the same customer base.
Doesn’t this statement support publicly traded status being a riot cause, though?
I must assume I’m misunderstanding your argument…?
Irrelevant. Women’s health is an issue I wouldn’t expect you to understand, however.
That’s not how investments work. If I put my money into purchasing a printer, I invested in that purchase. Not the other way around. Ffs
Last I checked, by law you are supposed to receive pay for any actions taken on site that are directly work related. Which includes getting into uniform. So that dude’s reasoning was bunk anyway.
The laws are against the employee when it comes to salaried positions. Most jobs that pay a salary are exempt from overtime; only certain types of jobs qualify. However, due to lack of awareness, not paying overtime to a salaried employee who actually qualifies is probably a very common form of wage theft.
Btw, I’ve never heard wage theft used to refer to employees misreporting their hours. I’m not sure that’s a common usage of the term (kinda think it’s not).
Fair enough. Pretty sure I can agree with that!
I vehemently disagree. It’s a terrible affirmation of their indifference to the harms that may come about as a direct result of content hosted on their platform.
Honestly, this is as close to inaction as they can get away with. So, unless the bare minimum is good enough for you, I strongly urge you to reconsider your position.
As much as I despise the “both parties” rhetoric, I’m afraid it feels more and more like Democrats are simply controlled opposition. In spite of Republicans being famous for doing nothing but obstruction, the way Democrats piss around rather than actually work towards a unified goal upsets me to no end.
In summary, the corporate bean counters don’t want to give up control over your device. That’s really all it boils down to. They’re not doing anyone any favors, that’s for sure. It’s pure greed
Got anything to back that up?
I don’t know. I rather doubt our bodies can evolve and adapt to a new environment before we die out. At the very least, even if we do take to the stars, whatever survives will have evolved to something new
Yes, I did read your post. If companies could legally pay less, many would. Hand waving the issue does not address the fact that it is a major flaw in your argument. I do not accept that abolishing minimum wage would have anything other than a negative effect on employees. Yes, having it set too low is a problem. Removing minimum wage will not solve that problem.
Your argument has circled back on itself multiple times. So, whatever, I give up. Go on with your bad self, or…whatever…
No. The lack of buttons annoys the hell out of me. Lose your remote? Oops, no TV for you. And frankly, I despise any product that emphasizes something completely superficial like looks over functionality. I pity the empty, vapid existence of people who actually get excited about such ridiculous design issues.
Yup, the West wanted war so bad they invaded…wait, no, that’s obviously bullshit.
Swapping one states’ propaganda for another isn’t enlightened, its just plain stupid.
