YSK Employers do NOT verify your total work history unless you're applying for a government position.

  • They want you to need them. If you don't need them, you might be thinking independently. You might not go along with it when they want you to do unreasonable things.

    If we're talking about tools.

    • Linux smashes through five per cent desktop share in the US

  • I'm confused, did it SMASH or did it crawl?

    • Low-quality papers based on public health data are flooding the scientific literature

    Jump

  • It's not new, just getting worse, huh?

    • Astronomers witness the dawn of a new solar system for the first time

    Jump

  • Yeah, what a terrible headline. Makes it sound like an event that happened that scientists saw, rather than an ongoing process that's been happening for millions(?) of years and will continue long past the end of humanity.

  • No joke that's why I don't like heated seats except on the very lowest setting (which is till sometimes too high). Feels like sitting in a puddle of warm piss.

    I just want vented seats for those days where the seat material gets so hot, because to get any decent features in most new cars you HAVE to get the "leather" instead of fabric.

  • The problem is that they are a cartel, so we get in a place where a group of private businesses can dictate who can make money.

    I think it's a great idea in theory that as a payment processor you can have influence on social changes. I think businesses should have clear ethics so that I can support those that match my own. If there were 50 processors to choose from that all had niches and different ethics, fine. But we have in reality one processor with finger puppets on asking us which puppet we like best.

    • Disney will be releasing "Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World" on 4K Ultra HD on August 5.

  • Pretty sure you need a 4k Blu-ray player. Or have someone rip the video for you and play it with VLC or use your Jellyfin server.

    • The Unfortunate Truth

    Jump

  • But then it won't matter. The problem is that this looks like ass and didn't need to be made with an AI image generator. It could easily be made with any free word processor and a picture of an embryo found anywhere.

    • TIL sweat comes out of the pores, which does this when you shave

  • Sounds like a strange dream I would have then wake up drooling on my pillow like a great dane.

  • Whaaaah? And the doctors had no idea what it was either huh? Coolcoolcool

    • YSK that apart from not having a car and voting, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat.

    Jump

  • The metric of per kg of product, while entirely fair, can be a bit misleading when it comes to making high impact decisions in your life. The switching to tea example is a good one to criticize because on this chart coffee is quite high up there, but I consume only 15g of coffee a day, compared to probably close to a kg of meat, egg, and dairy. Eliminating coffee would not be a high climate impact decision.

    • Americans kinda don't like pickpocketing rule

    Jump

  • Humans work off of incentives and risk. If there's essentially no consequences for pickpocketting and the incentive is quite high with expensive phones and cash potential, the balance is way out of proportion. A good chance of getting your shit rocked brings it a bit more in line.

    The possibility of getting shot or stabbed is way out of proportion the other way. That's the problem with America. You can't even give someone the bird when they nearly crash into you without fear of getting shot.

    • Wages are stagnant and cost of living is ridiculous. Are we headed for a crash?

    Jump

  • From your own source on "true" unemployment, it's the lowest it has been since they started calculating it. It peaked in 09 at 35% and again in COVID, but all through the early 00s it was between 28% and 30%.

    You can't use that number as evidence we "already crashed", because as we've seen in other actual crashes it spikes up to 35%.

  • Looking at your gear from 2 hobbies ago like, "man, I really need to get out and do [thing] again... Maybe I need to buy some new gear."

    • Dolph is prime human

    Jump

  • What about a masters in engineering and a bachelor's in chemistry makes him even double more qualified? Yeah, maybe if he had a doctorate you could make that argument, but you could easily learn and do as much science work in 6 years outside of a university than you would in a BS and MS program at a university.

    • U.S. wine exports to Canada have fallen off a cliff

    Jump

  • Maybe we keep the good stuff in California, but in my wine drinking experience so far, French and Italian wines aren't noticeably better. In fact, all the best wines I've had have been Californian, but that could be because I got it at the winery itself.

    Less demand for California wines means they're cheaper for me, that's not a bad thing in my book.

    Stick it to us Canada, we sure fucking deserve it.
