Something I was really looking for was being able to Sync Newpipe with some interface on my desktop, this sounds great and maybe you could implement that as well?

Just use the Messenger app or messenger.facebook.com then, you won’t see Threads promotions nor be exposed to other Facebook stuff

Do these terms actually come from racist backgrounds, or did they come up as a coincidence?
It just feels weird someone would think of a way to degrade black people then decide to use blacklist for things they don’t want, then engineers decide to use master and slave to piss off black people whatever. Is that literally the history behind it?

Education subs like ApplyingToCollege, 6thform, uniUK, SAT etc.
I’m not a full Lemmy user because these constitute my primary usage of Reddit but still come around Lemmy sometimes

It’s a school board which afaik had nothing to do with DeSantis. Well, maybe DeSantis pushed passed the kind of less that authorized school boards play around like this.

But this is more of a direct result of residents of the county voting this kind of people for school board (or… only a specific group attending the ballot and others sleeping) and the people elected by the citizens in that county doing banning things like that.

I think US could be a much better place if simply everyone went to ballot

What does this actually mean? Can you literally sit on the desk all day, doing nothing or mess everything up, and your employer has to pay you still?
Performance evaluation is a pretty broad word

They actually have many options, no way Amazon is the only employer that would employ them, and they chose Amazon probably because it’s actually the least evil of options or somewhat “better” in something. It doesn’t have to be actually better in terms of work or pay etc. but perhaps how easy it was to commute (though I heard Amazon has plenty of work benefits actually)
Now other employers have to compete because they need an employee too. So they try to one up Amazon. If they get good enough Amazon will lose too many employees and have to one up the other employers. etc.

Ok but this clearly doesn’t seem to work well, right? Wages stagnating and harsh work etc. This is probably related to many factors but I guess job security is a big one, people don’t job hop as much and fear getting fired homeslessness etc. Another one is too many potential employees to choose for limited spots (with the increasing levels of automation in every kind of work), so much that employers can actually down on their work conditions and say “ok then, whoever can stand these conditions for this price can work here”.

I’m not some economist or something but I believe UBI or some derivative of it at least would be the leverage for that. If someone who just got fired were to receive 1000$ per months on top of their current savings for 24 months, they won’t be so much of a risk and won’t be inclined to work in a 1200$ per month job either. We don’t actually need this constant race of upping minimum wage and many other band aid regulations if that could be a thing.

That is kind of a good point tho? Why are we ridiculing this person/debate (I’m not familiar all) based on this video?

To layman’s terms, people used to make 5 children and 3 of them would die. Then this mortality has dropped. People still make 5 children. The country has too much children. The country is really young and very few per capita are susceptible to covid.

The opposite happens in Western countries. Old people don’t die. People don’t make children anymore. Population is really old, covid really affects a lot of people per capita.

I mean there are companies that do this for you, carry everything over (from the front of house to placing them inside as well, like couches and tv and everything) so you don’t do anything really except paying them money (and ask for refund if they broke something 😡). Like I guess it’s called forwarding

I know more about US politics than my own country politics and this is pretty blessing imo, it’s like so depressing and toxic

Wouldn’t they just hire a truck if they ever need that? I mean that’s what we did, we moved twice in the last 20 years and one involved moving over 300 miles away to another city

Wait is this really true?? Why do so mamy people feel the need to buy trucks?

I recently looked up LA and SF and then other American cities in general for the first time on Google Earth. How much you could be allergic to apartments to let that happen? It’s just really incredibly weird all these houses spaced out like nothing. I’d be really utterly surprised if US cities didn’t have a rent problem with such a city design.

How did Elon help Ukraine? Just asking bc never heard of one instance

7 billion is not just “cost of business” for Google lmao
Some of you are so out if touch from this world if you think Google isn’t really concerned about such an amount
