It’s going to keep happening as long as everyone has to have a job in order to survive. We’re post-scarcity on human labor, so they can wear out one employee, fire them, and hire another without much trouble. It’s reminiscent of the dangerous factory jobs around the turn of the century, when workers were simply…

OTS is fucking plague spreading to every large publicly traded company right now. There is no business reason for it besides voodoo Wall Street accounting that considers any number higher than $0 carried in stock/parts/supplies a capital offense.

Be nice to retail employees- they put up with A LOT of shit. From their bosses and the public. It’s a thankless, low paying job so try not to treat them like they’re invisible. Be a good guy!

The Thing was a pretty clever bit of technology. It had no power source, and had no (active) electronic components. When the gift was searched for bugs, none were found. But when you ‘illuminated’ The Thing with radio waves of a particular frequency, it reflected that signal back - modified slightly by its…

I don’t disagree, but how about the police don’t randomly show up at a house jacked up like they’re about to roll into Fallujah and open fire as soon as a guy reaches for his waistband?

If these people are so worried about terrorist attacks, I’d be happy to live in their units while they safely stay on my Aunt and Uncle’s farm in Minnesota - completely elevator free on the farm, should have no issues living out the rest of their lives in safety.

Social worker here. You’d be surprised how shitty state agencies run when it involves the health and welfare of children. I would encourage you to look up Danieal Kelly. One of the most extreme cases of neglect I’ve read about. I seriously reconsidered working with kids after reading about the case. Also, you’ll going…

That’s Extremely Worrying: The US School System

So, I teach Rhet/Comp (argumentative logic in a written capacity) at the college level, and have for the last twelve years.

The level of obfuscation, dissemblance, and general reliance on logical fallacies that this administration continues to engage in is absolutely flabbergasting. I’m no political pundit, but I do…

I would watch a live feed of this editor working in real time. Seriously.

Don’t forget yer Septic Tank Snake from the first. Tripped up young Hamill when they were rolling and then it went all UCB for ten minutes

**whistling** If I liked fighting games that much and lived in the percentile that benefits from Trump’s tax cut, I’d definitely get this.

Ya, fuck all the people in this post who did amazing, innovative, interesting and beautiful things.

Thank all that is holy in gaming that PUBG didn’t win Game of the Year. When you’re announcing your second map, no matter how big that map is, for your early access title... I don’t care how popular, you deserve no awards yet.

Yea, it’s called sitting, closing your eyes and breathing, none of these gimmicks. That said some teachers suggest North Americans are very distracted and may benefit from starting with Mantra meditation before going straight to silence. Glad you’ve found meditation hope it helps brother!

Universal basic income is going become a simple necessity as we continue to advance technologically - we’ve already reached a point where a significant percentage of people shouldn’t have to work, but the capitalist mindset hasn’t really caught up to it, so the economy is forced to create what amount to unnecessary…

I found these two cuties under a leaf at a beach in Costa Rica; not a great pic—just wanted to share!

Part payload, part assault on my senses

When reached by Kotaku, the Ford dealership said they didn’t know what we were talking about.
