They asked for 14, we’re going to strike for at least 7, and got 4 and the ability to turn 3 PTO days into sick days. Not exactly what I would call a victory, but it’s definitely better than nothing.

Do you think titles like that are a result of a severely myopic mind, unable to even comprehend why a corporation would willingly do something that their users dislike, or just clickbait?

Hm… it’s not best practice, but that shouldn’t kill it entirely either. Ah I wish you were local, I’d love to take a look at it.

Did you disconnect the battery without shorting the two terminals together or using a metal tool? You should never ever unplug anything in a device until after you’ve unplugged the battery.

No. Opening a device is categorically NOT a warranty voiding action, by law. At least in the US. Though, in this case, it does sound like they damaged the joycon, which would make it not eligible for warranty, but it has nothing to do with opening the device.

Dude. Sobriety was so important in my radicalization and moving from disaffected and alienated to educated and principled. I didn’t realize how badly alcohol had lead me astray until things got out of hand, and now I too am multiple years sober. Keep it up!

I probably play the Pocket, the RG353V, and the Pocket Flip the most, but I really love the steam deck as a pc replacement for accessing my massive steam library without using my giant power guzzling pc.

Yeah, it actually is.

Found the guy with the superiority complex mad that the union didn’t fall for their sucking up to the bosses.

Especially for a game you can already play in 4k just by using an Xbox and a $5 copy of RDR for 360.

Ah im gonna have to think real hard to even have a chance of remembering, but one of my exes loved this old Soviet cartoon about a mouse that goes to New York and is surrounded by giant rats and bad people. It was great, I’ll see what I can dig up.

Agreed, there’s limited resources, that’s exactly why we can’t afford to waste any more on another CEO mega yacht or private plane. We’re capable of a post-scarcity society with just the setup we have today, were we to distribute resources on need rather than greed.

Or check it, we don’t increase our consumption, so we don’t need more energy. We purposefully decrease it. We allocate resources by necessity.

Widget factories don’t need to operate 24 hours a day, and their owners don’t need to make 500x their employees wages. Kill two birds with one stone, the widget factory is only allocated enough energy to run a few hours a day, and the wages from its executives (who have proven they don’t deserve it by the very lack of care towards sustainability they have presented) go to the workers to ensure they continue to make the same amount despite the decrease in work time.

You do that with all of the industries in the world, and I guarantee we could cut emissions by 50% within a year. Obviously, global implementations are much more complicated than my comment would imply, but I think accepting an end to a system where the only limits placed upon industry is “how much money do you have?” Is necessary entirely to have even a fraction of a chance at beating climate change.

Then, once we’ve stopped wasting massive amounts of energy on inherently useless endeavors, then we can start to talk about the pollution caused by nuclear, but until then, it’s just replacing one extractive industry with another. Whether or not in theory nuclear is less damaging environmentally, our current Money = Right system precludes the possibility of such sustainable practices being put into place. There is always another country that can be corrupted to allow destructive, cheap extraction processes, like what happens in Mail, Burkina Faso, and Niger as we speak.

That’s funny.

So you’re willing to move within 1 mile of a uranium mine and live there and drink the well water from that property?

Or are you just willing to sacrifice others for your luxurious lifestyle?

There are alternatives other than continuing to expand our consumption of fossil or nuclear fuels. Hell, most of them don’t even require lifestyle changes from the majority of the population.

Or, maybe people recognize that literally the majority of radioactive mining leaves irradiated lands that disproportionately effect minorities and oppressed communities. The Navajo are still suffering due to the mining of radioactives in their area. The same story is true for nearly every community near such facilities.

I’m from the U.S. most of the services I actually Can use are funded by state taxes. My federal taxes go partially to good things, but when looking at the discretionary budget, which excludes entitlements to which people have directly paid and which the government is obligated to pay out, the vast majority of my federal tax dollars go to oppressing people in foreign countries, and then those weapons are given to police departments to oppress people locally.
