people who (accurately) understand that china has successfully contained covid to a far greater degree to the usa are automatically tankies now? that’s like some full-blown far-right stuff, honestly. way to undermine your own credibility, i guess?

my guess is they’ll go outside and play, go to malls/concerts/etc/etc/etc. they actually will have way more things to do than usa children without risking covid, since the numbers in china are absolutely miniscule by comparison (of course the western media is pretending it’s pure pandemonium in china right now, big…
No sympathy for the likely six digit number of people who are now without jobs, huh.
Nice point on the housing. This is why evergrande (and other Chinese real estate firms) have been in various stages of default the last few months.
That take was bad from the start and aged about as poorly as Walter Donavan at the end of the Last Crusade.
Why don’t you clarify that statement with the rest of the facts? It was a total of 9000 people surveyed in several countries. Many of the home owners are in rural areas where the price of a house is in the low thousands. Many more of them are bought by their family and not themselves, primarily because of the need to…
And the people who reported that anything was wrong in China have been packed off to delightful re-education centers, where they will learn not to be so disparaging
Hey, give management SOME credit.
Why are people so anti-union when they work jobs that could only benefit from unionization?
After reading that email, I was half-tempted to apply for a job on the off-chance I happened to get picked up quickly enough to help push the union.
And never mind the old addage: United we stand, divided we fall. If you go to argue your work conditions on your own.. the management can deal with one lone dissenting voice easily. A collective shout from a union? Far less so.
If any industry needs unionization it is software development. They are underpaid and overworked. They are forced to live in some of the most expensive cities in the country but only given modest salaries. They are crunched. They literally have an industry-wide cycle that consists of being worked doggedly for months…
Also compared to “An organized team who will represent all of you as opposed to how we’ve been dealing with you all on an individual basis, in which the outcomes of said results aren’t publicly disclosed”.
Activision Blizzard can go screw.
That means that your ability to negotiate all your own working conditions will be turned over to CWA, just as the document says.
There is always gonna be someone who takes it too far...
Yet when my kid opens their window on the interstate in my mundane little car it feels like a pressure hammer smacking my eardrums repeatedly and everything goes flying.
“ I was an insecure, attention-seeking troll.”
She still is, but she was then too.
i was joking! wd 40 on brakes will kill you! but good thing you said stuff. what if i really was dumb. you would be a hero
Oil can contaminate the pads, and cause them to not work efficiently. Heat may cook off the contminant, but enough oil and the brake pad can glaze. Also keep away soap and DOT fluid, heat from improper braking can also glaze the pads, all making them inefficient. Drilled or slotted rotors can help machine the pads…
