It’s buck from ice age, now all he needs is an eye patch.

Dell said return to the office or else—nearly half of workers chose “or else” - Workers stayed remote even when told they could no longer be promoted. ( arstechnica.com )

Big tech companies are still trying to rally workers back into physical offices, and many workers are still not having it. Based on a recent report, computer-maker Dell has stumbled even more than most....

Productivity is for companies who want substance.

We only want continuous stock price increases regardless of how much it rots a company from the inside out.

That’s for someone else to carry about after I’m gone.

Promotions haven’t been a thing since the 70s
Today you job hop because promotions are non existent

Here’s the sad part, it really isn’t.

Right wing nutters like tucker are pressing both issues the same way.

A banana pi is not going to have the processing power to properly route that much data.

You’re looking at an Intel nuc at minimum.

If your internet is 5gbps and the router only has 2.5 gbps ports, you’re going to be capped at 2.5gbps unless you start getting really over complicated because the router expects ONE incoming port. There ARE ways to support pairing two Ethernet ports together, but your ISP’s modem/router won’t support it because “fuck you for having your own hardware”

Also because they’re cheap.

If your switch is 1gbps, you’ll be limited to 1gbps.

The red delicious used to be delicious.

This is how they all go eventually.

This is literally the centre of the incel problem.

Oh for sure!

I’ve known several incels, and in my experience, their entitlement to sex is really just an extension of wanting to feel loved.

Men grow up in a near drought of love and physical affection. After about 5 years old, we can’t hug our best friends.

Then men are told that they will pick a blushing bride that will be everything to them.

And when that doesn’t work, they become bitter and don’t know what to do with the rejection, because they have shit coping skills and mix up their entitlement for love with an entitlement for sex.

It’s a mess. I’m not absolving the incels of their shitty behaviour, but I’m also not going to say that “they deserve to feel unloved”

But I think the solution starts with recognizing that the incels actually want love. In my experience, women want to feel loved, and THEN trust you physically with sex. This makes sense because the physical danger for women is very real. Men seem to do it backwards. They want to get physical first and then trust you with love, since emotional danger is very real to them.

Anyways I’ll stop rambling, this is a mix of facts and personal experiences, but I really stand by the general point.

Thanks, I go through great pains to try and truly understand issues rather than “grab the pitchforks”

It’s all too easy to see someone as evil, rather than just a person hurting. Once you see the hurt, you have to be careful not to go all “bleeding heart” and excuse their crimes.

💯

The amount of pressure it puts on a partner to be your sole source of emotional confort is tremendous.

The other option for men is solitude.

There is a better way.

^ mic drop moment.

This is the men’s revolution that’s needed. The feminist revolution came, and was absolutely necessary, and now we need one for men. We didn’t keep up with the times.

I think this is the biggest point that somehow seems lost on the extremists.

Trump clearly and publicly praised MANY fascist dictators. Why do they either ignore or accept that?

I just struggle with the severe disconnect where their emotions allow them to ignore the reality in front of them. I struggle to fathom the dissonance required for that

ArbiterXero ,

I guess?

But they also claim to be really big on freedom.

Though I guess it’s more “Freedom™️”

“Don’t be evil”

Unless people want to be paid.

ArbiterXero ,

Yes, hear no evil, see no evil.

They know why they wanted this at arms length.

ArbiterXero ,

The stock buybacks are really the answer. They spent 100x on them, but the CEO pay is still a valid target

ArbiterXero ,

Wait, some of them actually use potentiometers??

I’ve never seen that and that seems wildly stupid as a mechanism. Far too flawed in comparison to an optical wheel and sensor, and it’s not like the optical sensor is expensive,
