Amen to that - way too many people forget that interviews are a two way street. You interview me, sure, but at the same time I am also interviewing you to see if the company is a good fit for me. Job seekers are not (or should not be) a bunch of starving orphans begging rich for job owners for scraps. Having a job means providing a service and being compensated for it, not total servitude…
I would have to be MUCH more desperate than I am to ever accept being interviewed by a damn machine… It’s even worse than those “record yourself answering these questions” bullshit. Nobody should work for a company that does not even respect them enough to talk to them
That, and every replaced book should have a big dedication inside, saying something like “purchased with a generous donation of Mr [this twit’s name]”
And yet again, he suddenly cares about truth and ethics now, because something directly and negatively affects him…
How do you deal with people like that? Is there a way to make them understand that empathy is not actually a weakness and helping others is important and good, even if it doesn’t benefit you personally at that very moment?
Because that’s what it’s all about - someone else suffering more. The objective is to increase the amount of suffering in the world, since we clearly don’t have enough of it just yet, but making sure others suffer more than us. Because trying to make it so that everyone suffers less is communist, unamerican and bad, I guess…
He absolutely did and does, no doubt about it. But it’s him suffering going to fix any of that or improve the lives of people he and his goons destroyed? I don’t know what to think about it, it’s too philosophical for my small monkey brain…
Sure, but doesn’t that make you (and me too, since I actually grinned and felt really good about this initially) very similar to him and US republicans in general? Celebrating the “right people” being hurt?
I don’t have an answer, I find it super hard to not hate the other side, but I don’t think it’s healthy or productive, and it doesn’t really help anyone… Having said that, it does feel like at least the beginning of just punishment, doesn’t it? I just wish people stopped being total dicks to each other and we didn’t have to punish anyone… :(
I try to not be happy when people suffer, because I believe we should all be working to reduce suffering for everyone and not increase it for others (even if they are “those people”), but sometimes it’s really hard…
“Fuck off you tired, you poor, You huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to El Salvador, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
More “Oopsie poopsie, administrative error! They’re gone and we can’t get them back because reasons!” in 3… 2… 1…
“Because our orange God-Emperor said so” not valid enough reason for ya? Too bad, it is for them, and I wish I was joking…
…because if I’m not interested in something, I might change my mind after I see it a bunch more times on the same fucking page - what a brilliant idea! Hell, put the ad in 50 different spots and make me click no less than 7 times to close each one - who knows, maybe that will encourage me to buy whatever shit you’re peddling!
Seems an alternative, easier method was found: https://www.windowscentral.com/software-apps/windows-11/an-even-better-microsoft-account-bypass-for-windows-11-has-already-been-discovered
Relevant part:
But fret not, as a new, perhaps better bypass has already been discovered that still uses the command prompt (which you can open with Shift + F10) and makes skipping the Microsoft Account sign-in step a total breeze.
Discovered by user @witherornot1337 on X, typing “start ms-cxh:localonly” into the command prompt during the Windows 11 setup experience will allow you to create a local account directly without needing to skip connecting to the internet first.
Did Biden explicitly prohibit drinking bleach and eating rusty nails? Because if not, go right ahead you incompetent fucking morons, bon appetit!
“Users who in the past would type ‘free online file converter’ into a search engine are vulnerable, as the algorithms used for results now often include paid results, which might be scams.”
Nooo, you mean turning search engines into monetization and ad delivery engines had downsides? Who would have thought!
Fucking greed at the root of another goddamned issue…
Jesus fucking Christ, for real? I try to come up with purposefully exaggerated and completely ridiculous analogies, and this bloody administration still one-ups me with insanity…
Yes, because words have no meaning and can be declared to mean anything the orange turd wants…
What’s next, declaring drag queens to be an invasive species? Adding trans people to the Schedule 1 list of controlled substances? Redefining conflict of interest to mean any transaction that doesn’t line Trump’s or Musk’s pockets? Fucking hell America, fucking hell…
Probably because it’s kinda hard to check if a ghost had the “correct” skin color and/or genitals…
National security, eh? Were Epstein and friends trading enriched uranium and defense secrets between fucking children and doing drugs? Who woulda known…
Et tu, Wikipedia?
My god, why does every damn piece of text suddenly need to be summarized by AI? It’s completely insane to me. I want to read articles, not their summaries in 3 bullet points. I want to read books, not cliff notes, I want to read what people write to me in their emails instead of AI slop. Not everything needs to be a fucking summary!
It seriously feels like the whole damn world is going crazy, which means it’s probably me… :(
