- Comment on McDonald’s posts biggest decline in global sales in four years 2 weeks ago:
If you skimp on ingredients while raising prices, and then try to lock any sort of reasonable deal behind a creepy data collection app, customers are likely to notice and choose a better option. Sucks to suck.
- Comment on Dell Sales team told to return to office 5 days a week 1 month ago:
Sure, everyone that has a job that can be done from home should be permitted to do it from home if they want to.
What the best performers rhetoric is about is that these companies are harming their long term prospects by doing things like this, since the personnel that make the most money for the company are generally the ones that can easily leave for another company that will not treat them like a child that needs to be directly monitored.

- Comment on What is the purpose of this plastic piece? 1 month ago:
I believe it’s to protect the prongs from getting damaged during shipping - and if the container gets rained on or something, it could provide some protection from that

I am stupid. How dangerous would one of these be to me if I picked it up by the ends (Or whatever to make it discharge into my body)?
- Comment on USA: The Minimum Wage Should Be $24 per Hour Not $7.25 6 months ago:
The government already intentionally understates inflation through changes to the CPI, this would just further incentivize them to understate it even further.

This comment made me look up what sort of hardware one needs to decode AV1

“For GPU-accelerated AV1 playback, you will need an Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 series card, an AMD Radeon RX 6000 series, or an 11th-gen Intel CPU with Iris Xe graphics.”
- Comment on 35 Michiganders so far have been ordered to turn in their guns under state's new 'red flag law' 7 months ago:
A bunch of cops showing up at your door is the way the state indicates they are here to personally harm you. I would much rather go out bleeding in my house than getting locked inside of a cage for decades.
