SKIDROW and Masquerade claim that the real identity of EMPRESS is Voksi
  • As long as games keep getting cracked this drama is just entertainment. I'm on Empress' telegram and it's been entertaining to watch their descent into madness.

    So far they've opened the main channel followed by others trying to create an empress community, started a cult charging people $1000 to join (teaching the most advanced and supernatural facts humanity cannot imagine or comprehend according to them), started drama with fitgirl, is staunchly and VERY vocally anti-trans, sells AI artwork, regularly goes off on 1337x and reddit, and lastly I saw the reply to this via their channel which is below: "To sKIDrow:

    what a SORRY state of madness to see you in after i raped you... but worry not, because next time its gonna be HARDER"

    I wonder what is going to happen next.

  • They have such a dangerous job ..
  • Covid was also a top fatality result of police for a while there. Just showcasing their amazing decision making skills as they refuse to get vaccinated.

    Clearly they represent the best of the best there.

  • TIL about the Migingo island, one of the most densely populated islands in the world. The rocky island has density 65,500/km2
  • So the US has no influence on the internet or social media? In denial much?

    Realize here my argument is that the US is some exceptional example of a country, the literal definition of exceptionalism, but there is enough influence for the general internet population to understand what a foot is. Just like how I know what a stone is without the UK being some exceptional utopia. If someone says they weight 12 stone I convert in my head and go about my day.

    But hey. this all started when someone said 15m2 was larger than a parking spot. I said no and showed my work. The units I used were irrelevant. This whole tangent is your own pedantry.

    EDIT: For those curious, Mr_Blott deleted his reply that called my comment on the US having an influence on the internet US exceptionalism, and that should have been lost in the migration.

  • Audiobooks

  • The foot isn't an SI unit, but the US influence on the internet and social media as a whole means it isn't some obscure unheard of unit. Besides, the foot has been defined by SI units for a while now, and the survey foot being done away with makes it publically official. It's just a conversion factor.

    Then again being that pedantic is totally a reddit thing, so it's good to see that hasn't been lost in the migration.

  • Conservative Voting Group Sued Over Refusal To Produce Ballot-Harvesting Evidence
  • No, and despite 4 dozen cases (probably more including GOP cases) launched by Trump where there would be an opportunity to present the evidence they have failed to provide anything.

    It turns out when it's not facebook or fox news and a lawyer realized they could be in deep shit for lying the evidence just evaporates, presumably to the same place as hunter's laptop.

  • When your company lays you off despite making record profits last year/quarter
  • Since I'm in an at will state that's always the risk, and HR will always lie to cover the ass of the company given the chance. But they still need people, and distributing that information only erodes their ability to keep people in the dark. They can't fire everyone that has spoken about wages in my case, we're simply too shortstaffed, and if I got fired I could be picked up easily by another company.

    I know plenty of people aren't in that kind of favorable situation but it makes it easier to do the right thing. The bonuses I've seen our execs get would easily cover raises for the lower staff with room to spare.

  • When your company lays you off despite making record profits last year/quarter
  • The company I work for has a different strategy. They separated when reviews, and therefore raises and bonuses are given from the upper management to the lower level staff. Lower staff go first. When it comes time for lower staff raises and bonuses there's talk of 'tightening belts' and 'bracing for a recession' during communication meetings. A few months later when it's time for upper management it's 'Record profits!'.

    Of course the lower level staff are given bonuses and raises based on those poor projections, while upper management gets theirs based on record profits.

    If you keep your long term lower staff happy with very low raises and bonuses you not only save the money for your upper management in the short term, but also ensure that long term even a return to normal raises saves them money overall.

    This is why I remind my coworkers that it is federally protected to share your wage and discuss it. They only get away with this if the long timers don't speak with the new hires and realize how badly they're being shafted.
