I promise you the companies that are now forced to pay $20/hr are more than capable of doing so. They’re only laying off people in protest; it’s purely for show. They must have at least 60 locations nationwide and be considered “fast food”. These companies aren’t broke. Starbucks for example, which just closed 7 stores in protest had a net income of $4.125 billion

Right now I’m making a bit more than $24/hour and live in a low cost of living, rural area. I’m fortunate enough to have been blessed with inherited money after my father’s passing and now have a paid off house and vehicle. My living expenses are low to say the least. I have ZERO debt, I invest 15% of my income and put 10% into savings, 25% goes towards “wants” and the rest goes to bills.
All of that said, there is absolutely NO WAY I would be able to save/invest/spend the percentages I do if I had to pay rent, or a mortgage, and a car payment on top of that. If I had kids it would be even worse. I literally cannot even imagine if I had to pay for a kid right now and I’m in a good spot financially speaking. I would be BARELY scraping by at my pay rate (reminder: I’m in a low cost of living rural area).
How can you POSSIBLY think $24/hr is too much money???

If your music fits on your phone, you could just use Syncthing on your NAS and phone to simplify the process of adding new music to your phone.

They publicly posted a key that “didnt work”. How is that stealing? It would be like me leaving a piece of equipment in my front yard with a sign that says “free, doesn’t work” but a mechanic picks it up and fixes it in a matter of minutes.

GTA V for free.
A customer left a seller review on G2A stating that their provided key didn’t work. They posted the key in the review and I claimed it on steam without any issue.
