- Comment on Are Street Racers "bad people"? 5 days ago:
So that’s a completely different conversation. One that I think the US should have, mind you, since I agree that it’s wildly unsafe.
But my point is that if your car can’t pass inspection, it shouldn’t be on the road, and it definitely shouldn’t be racing, on-track or no.
- Comment on Are Street Racers "bad people"? 5 days ago:
The one held in my city is pretty reasonable. And if they’re not passing inspections to race on a track then they shouldn’t be racing on the street either.

Y’all are assholes who do asshole things.
Seriously why do y’all do this? You can rent time on tracks for cheap!

- Comment on Google says adblockers caused YouTube views count to drop - this is what adblockers told us really happened 1 week ago:
Before their media blitz campaign, Hormel’s Spam was eaten in perhaps 20% of households; after the campaign it was closer to 70%.
Ads do work, if you do them right. People go for what they’ve heard of over what they haven’t.

They say you should only say good things about the dead.
Charlie Kirk is dead. Good.

Now that’s an obituary I can read with great satisfaction.
- Comment on Ding ding ditch is punishable by death apparently 4 weeks ago:
Because those people weren’t armed.
- Comment on Ding ding ditch is punishable by death apparently 4 weeks ago:
Because in America things like the Tulsa Race Massacre happen a fair bit, and the cops either stand by or join in, so you have to be able to defend you and yours.
Remember folks, armed minorities are harder to oppress.

What’s the difference between a million dollars and a billion dollars?
Answer: roughly a billion dollars.
Being a million-dollar company means nothing against a company where a million dollars can count as little more than a rounding error.

If you ask, they’ll tell you it’s different for ‘essential services’. It’s the same excuse they use for the farm handouts.

More like incredibly aggressive. They are a type of algae after all. If you don’t keep a firm leash on them they’ll reproduce enough to drain all the oxygen and nutrients from an enclosed system like an aquarium.
Plant tribbles, if you will.

For most of them, it’s because they truly, deeply believe that if they don’t convert you, you’re going to burn in hell for eternity when you die.
For most of the leaders of those sorts of churches, it’s because more people means more money for that new private jet they’re saving up for.

Does it make sense to nitpick how much they’re getting though? The fact that they’re being denied any bonus is shady as fuck.

Nothing sinister at all. It has a long and proven track record. Which you can check out if you don’t want to be low-info anymore. Doctors and dentists support it.
But there’s a subset of people who want us to go back to disease-ridden serfs, because when your teeth are falling out and 3 out of your 5 kids died young from disease and you can barely make rent, you’re too distracted to care what other people are doing.

There’s only pros. It’s proven to prevent cavities in children and adults, much better than brushing alone.
There’s also the sad fact that not every kid is taught to—or sometimes allowed to—brush their teeth.

OTOH, if this is in the US, we are almost entirely at-will when it comes to employment; we can be terminated at any time, for something as petty as the boss not liking our socks, no heads-up required.
Here the two weeks notice is considered a courtesy, and sadly fewer and fewer businesses are proving worthy of that courtesy. It seems from the post title that this company did not deserve much respect at all.
