We’re here, aren’t we?
We’re here, aren’t we?
Poorly authenticated process injection will stay though? Ok. Good job guys.
NLRB is going to have to convince a court (probably several) that their stance is the correct one before that ruling becomes at all real, though.
Shouldn’t be that unpopular, really. Under those laws, a 16 year old can marry an 18 year old no problem. But, if things aren’t so great a year later (and let’s be honest, we all know people who’ve had those marriages), the now 17 year old needs permission from their adult spouse (parents don’t count anymore, since marriage also emancipates them) to retain an attorney or file for divorce.
Giving the maximum benefit of doubt here and assuming that Romeo and Juliette laws are an honest attempt not to saddle young lovers with a lifetime offender registration, the marriage component of them should be scrapped.
Oh, are we acting surprised because we forgot all the people that got screwed exactly like this on Kindle books in 2009?
Welcome to digital media. If you can’t play it without some company’s say do, you don’t own it.
Yep, I use a VPN just in general, and wipe my Reddit history every 30 days or so. I would make new accounts, but the ones I have are from before they demanded an email address, so they haven’t got one attached.
Not blind at all - that’s just what I do for the ads. 😉
That’s fine I guess. I only use Reddit from a uBlock’d browser behind a pihole. I’ve yet to see a single Reddit ad in 14 years.
Eh, this generational conflict stuff is nonsense. For years I’ve run teams of boomers, X, Y, and now Z. Have I had to punt some younger folks because they couldn’t work past some not-work-relevant difference with someone else in the office? Sure. But that’s not a Z thing at all.
Anyone who can’t check their personal baggage at the door and get work done as part of a team ends up being shown to the sidewalk. There’s no generational component to this, it’s happening to everyone of all ages.
Most/all unions keep a “war chest” to pay members during strikes, but the pay rates are usually far below members’ normal earnings.
I was in a UFCW strike when I was young, and the union paid us all minimum wage. For most of us, this was less than half what we’d been earning.
That’s not the easy way, though. People go for home automation in the first place to make something easy. Getting some awful proprietary spyware doodad to work with HomeAssistant is usually not the “just works” experience they’re looking for.
The course I took this summer gave similar guidance, and dispelled any worries about getting sued for helping.
Interestingly though, the instructor said we should not provide breaths mouth to mouth without a guard if we suspect drug use, or even just don’t know the person. Apparently fentanyl has changed that landscape.
I don’t recall specifically, but it was a requirement for a job with the city and taught by the police and county EMTs, so I’d guess the more formal Red Cross one. I didn’t keep it up after I left that job so I’m sure if there was an expiration date, it passed long ago.
I did another one this summer and it expires in two years.
Some of those laws are more recent, I believe. I got CPR certified in the 90s and the police officer instructing the course did indeed warn us to be careful about saving people as we could possibly get sued.
If I had to guess, it was a symptom of the sue-everyone-for-everything craze in those days, crossed with state laws that didn’t yet provide explicit protections for good samaritans because you generally don’t try to harm someone who went out of their way to save your life.
I’m not remotely saying that it’s not a big deal for the people impacted. I’ve been one of those and it was horrible - you don’t get paid and you’re not allowed/don’t have time to go get another job (the longest shutdown so far was 34 days).
I’m saying that the author of this article hasn’t done their research, because while millions will be impacted by a shutdown, military families are largely not among them.
Only a very limited set of the DoD shuts down when Congress doesn’t pass a budget. Efforts related to national security (which most of DoD falls under) continue regardless. A “police officer for the Air Force in Kansas” has little to worry about, even if he’s a contractor. National security functions continue when the government shuts down.
Also past shutdowns didn’t represent a “missed paycheck” for those affected, but rather a delayed one. Everyone got back-pay when past shutdowns ended. This isn’t a guarantee - Congress has to pass it as part of the spending bills - but it has always happened.
Millions of federal civilians and contractors will be furloughed during a shutdown, and that’s a very bad thing. But the military angle in this article is just plain false.
Also knowing that you’re guaranteed to be “downsized” on the first day of the next party change in the White House.
I bought a new Brother laser printer in 2021 and it has no problem with third party toners.
They’re talking about the stuff on the shelf, not the good stuff that’s locked up because it actually works.
My pihole guaranteed that my experience remained pristine. The author didn’t make any money from my visit, but their income loss is a sacrifice I’m willing to make.
Which is really what the whole problem here boils down to.
