I saw the main IF is named Blue and I legitimately can’t figure out how they got away with that. 

So, you haven’t seen the movie, but you’re saying his review is incorrect.

IF is an original, big-budget Hollywood release

Had the same thought and it’s gonna be hard for them to work through that for me. You’re telling me they were using the same shield tech over 10,000 years?!

Likewise, the Google Graveyard now needs an entry for “Half a million workers’ retirement funds”.

Forget Google’s FindMyDevice - we need to install FindMyPension.

Stewart wondered aloud why this longtime congressman doesn’t use one of the many lawful avenues of corruption that have benefitted his colleagues.

I see new cast members being added to Wednesday, but “cast changes” typically implies that one actor is being replaced in a roll by another actor. I’m not seeing that here. Am I missing something or was this just kind of a clickbaity headline?

Not to mention the National Retail Federation is biased in favor of the biggest possible number.

Employee theft is ALWAYS higher than customer theft.  And the employees take the higher value items.

I have a better idea, Home Depot: Why not just raise your prices that massive 0.007% you are losing on inventory?

I too have a friend working there... They do give raises on a fairly regular basis, apparently. Was told of one of his coworkers who was given a whopping 1¢/hour raise. YES, 1 fucking penny. Was also told that he walked on the spot.

The few people I’ve known to work at HD have said many(if not most) power tool thefts are from employees, who I assume will have access to whatever activation equipment would be necessary. I’m guessing the real solution here is to pay better wages that de-incentivize internal theft which will hopefully increase moral…

“A 2020 National Retail Federation survey found organized retail crime costs more than $700,000 per $1 billion in sales.”

Oh no my seven one-hundredths of one percent what will I dooooooooo

And now you have to call tech support to upgrade your impact wrench from 450 ft./lbs. to 650 ft./lbs. At only another $5 / month, it’s a bargain!

Next step, you don’t own the tool.  You only purchased a 1 year subscription to use it.

HARD NO.
I don’t want to have to ever have to apply firmware updates on my power tools to close the latest bluetooth vulns.
