Nearly all media is owned by conservative white men that willingly court fascism if it means lower taxes.

Powermods like that don’t usually have only one account, and since they can mod themselves wherever they go, they usually do.

Nuking an account is just changing skins. The admins have the power to track and fix that, but they won’t.

It is inevitable, all lemmy instances will eventually be taken over by supermods that leverage their power to harass.

This vegan fiasco isn’t even the first time but I guarantee you the admins will leave them to powermod the remaining 107 as they see fit.

To be honest, WFH for me means that if they need me to fill an hour in extra or so per day, then that’s kind of already costed in with travel times.

I’ve pulled 14 hour shifts covering for PTO or sick days and it really doesn’t feel even half as exhausting as a normal in-office 8 hours.

I dunno man, they’re really happy with the work life balance and the C-suites are happy with their productivity.

It’s funny even our sales and logistics departments are wfh, and the only people I ever see on the off chance I need to load a tape rack or something is security and building maintenance.

And we’ve been RIDICULOUSLY profitable all through covid. In fact covid only served to show the remaining staff how productive WFH is.

We are making so much money rn that they don’t even CARE about property costs and they leave the lights and AC on 24/7 for maybe 2 people in the entire site, and our 3 satellite sites are just as empty.

Sure there may be some A type salesbro personalities that need to be around others to work effectively, the largely spectrum oriented development community needs no such frippery.

I work at one of the top ten data processors in the world.

ALL of our devs have been WFH since 2014 and produce better work now than ever.

You’d be surprised the things they can figure out with modern forensics, maybe low oxygen in the remaining tissue, maybe a special enzyme that activates in the lungs when you are carbon dioxide poisoned.

The leaps in detection technology even in the last ten years are astounding.

Firefox for most things, but I keep a copy of Vivaldi installed because sometimes my firefox setup breaks capcha.

Because it works and wastes our time.

… that literally makes no rhetorical sense.

Also I wasn’t performing any logic, I asked a question and made a statement. There was no evaluation of anything in there. Are you a misconfigured bot?

Well since we are talking about the internet, is that such a bad idea?

It’s not called the ‘web of lies’ for nothing.

The curse of accessibility, if you make something so easy that anyone can use it, everyone will.

For me I loved the challenge of squeezing out a few extra k of lower memory. My autoexec.bat had four hundred lines in it.

I miss those days honestly. There’s really not much practical benefit to overclocking anymore, even broke college kid level devices come with at least 8 gigs of ram.

8… gigs… of ram… and ALL of it treated like lower memory… Could you imagine that in the mid 90s? I’d be thinking star trek.

I’d love that, my entire frontpage is the same 30 things over and over unless I deliberately sort for something then it’s a DIFFERENT 30 things over and over

In higher circles, wealth is considered a measure of competence.

It is a core tenet of capitalism: “Well if he’s such a bad businessman, why is he so rich?”

One of the ways they hide their incompetence is buying the talents of other, actually skilled people.

Another is ostentatious displays of wealth to impress other members of the owner class of your absolute flushness of cash and calmness of mind to keep faith in whatever your schemes are this week to stay relevant

Billionaires should not exist, and a trillionaire is simple an abomination

There are activist mods and admins here on lemmy just like reddit, you know it and I know it so let’s not pretend.

I’ve been on the internet since before it had pictures, and every one of you Eternal Septemberers are invaders on my sacred land.

Guess I’ll have to wait a bit longer for the vore mod…
