My last ex was becoming increasingly verbal and even physically abusive. I broke up with her months ago when she laid her first hands (and a broom) on me. Since then, she tried to contact me throughout all the social media and even email while still running the smear campaign mill. I blocked her everywhere, tried to contact me through a friend (who saw through her bullshit and started spying for me instead - only for any hurtful stuff that may come my way) and even tried to unsuccessfully hack my fb, Yahoo and (even if she didn’t know it, maybe from the “Forgot Password” prompt) my Outlook accounts. Even yesterday she sent me a degrading and triggering message from an old account of her that I forgot it existed. I’m going to the psychologist tomorrow to seek more healing support

And we can think about a 3rd and actually ship the materials in rockets and space them. Throwing them beyond Earth SOI would prevent accumulating garbage in orbit

Facebook, Messenger and WhatsApp, every day because all my contacts are there. My Insta account is almost deleted, but I still have things saved there. And Threads, not touching that with a 10ft pole

It always was for nothing but authoritarian control, not upholding the criminal law

A typical Fallout loot inventory

I got a “No Wi-Fi for you!” near me

“restores any missing body parts”, but can it counter the “mend buttcrack” spell?

Yep, it was a great phone and I had it as my last too. Not a smartphone in our current understanding, but still close to a dumb phone and with great functionality. Can’t remember what happened to mine, but my dad got it reconditioned and used it for a while after me until he got a modern smartphone too

Exactly what I was thinking. It was all a power play. And now that they’ve got their power, everything is “A-OK” and don’t care about the real climate Apocalypse

We the Fedipeople

Because F him, that’s Y

Exactly! It’s like going to jail for having someone presenting themselves as Joanne and you always call them Joanna. How will it ever be so much of a concern to throw someone in jail and destroy their future over it, Joanna? HOW??

Then oversimplification by people stereotypes and lack of socialization to realize the complexity of humans and human interactions. It’s so easy to consider that “all women are A” or that “some of the people are A and some are B” when, in fact, you have all sorts of people with different spectrums of beliefs and understandings that you can’t just box into a category. Then, when getting together with people with the same stereotyping and labeling standards, they get to slip away together and reinforce their beliefs

It’s because of big pay, highly mobile employees, hiding the real role of the HR and this false sense of security compared to the rest of the workplaces despite all these lay-offs from the big companies. Also, whenever a unionizing attempt happens, the companies go into crackdown mode and have their multitude of ways to either fire you with a bogus reason, remove your post citing “restructuring” or pulling you on a dead career track and demonize you in front of your colleagues with the usual “we care about our employees and everything can already be resolved through HR” speech. And moreover, many of these issues have a direct cause the Work Laws of the respective countries

I’m still using CommonJS and occasionally ESM, but I always get to integrate JSDoc for weak typing in IntelliSense. It’s like getting the (almost) juiciest part from Typescript without committing to it

His “body disposing” speech with the pigs is still the best acting performance in my books

It would mean that, for very high volume and consolidated bus routes where adding new busses would actually start to contribute to congestion, a city can then decide upon “upgrading” the entire line to a tram. Of course this means changing the infrastructure and lane structure on the involved streets and possibly the layout of the stations

Unfortunately, nowadays, the schools fail at both

I really feel like this definition is fairly incomplete. All the traits you mentioned can also describe feudalism, but replacing “capitalist” with “noble”, which is sanctioned and invested by other nobles or the suzerain. You could say that capitalism is “any system that supports private ownership of private property that is used to collect the products of another person’s labor”. With the mention that the private ownership can be asserted by either a person or an organized group of persons, but both private entities

In my experience, Scrum (which is an implementation of Agile), if done properly, can work faster than the waterfall. Especially in bigger teams where you would have people on standby to wait for other things to be done. This lets the bickering Architecture team to bicker while we, the developers, implement the things that have been settled on. It’s nasty when the Architecture team decides to change things already settled on because they are very detached from the rest of the development challenges, but at least we know who to put pressure on and why
