“True”

But maybe could be a good place for furry dating.

Perhaps due to the same reason UK avoided tariff threats.

Spineless leader. UK is unfortunately a lapdog in this special relationship.

In the UK, it says both. One above the other.

Spineless and pathetic.

Rock star devs are just devs that know the code so can do it faster, probably because they wrote it. Some just hack shit in.

No one is good enough to justify those behaviours.

Cannot say I’ve seen a dev do that in the UK. Anyone would get fired for throwing a chair. Standing on the table yelling would probably get then a bollocking and maybe a warning.

Let’s not forget the GOP. They could easily stop any of this as they have majorities. They could have stopped this in the past (impeachment) but they felt it was the best chance for their party.

Those spineless cowards love power and will rubber stamp anything if it helps them.

Sure it’s climate change, and not greedy billionaires pushing neoliberalism (and fascism).

Oof. I do not work weekends without time off in lieu. Good luck with the burnout when it hits.

I’d personally respond to their “disappointing” with “Quite the overstep there. Rude.”. Setting boundaries is important.

They should not expect you to give up your free time without asking. Are they your friend? Are they into you and wanting quality time together off the clock?

Edit: oh crap. That’s their boss. Yeah, not cool. Maybe the more diplomatic “Time off is important. Hope you have a good trip.” Firm. Set a boundary. However, very much a red flag. They’re trying to push you into a personal space and this could be highly risky. They may have other motives. I’d consider looking elsewhere for roles. Maybe pushing for a part time role e.g. you 4 days and the new person days if long hours or 5 and 2. Max 40 hours a week. That way they get full coverage and you have time off

They bundle it in laptop purchases. M$ dominate because of the b2b stitch up.

Most knew Facebook at the time and many knew what they were like…

Meta seemed partly a rebrand because of that unpopularity.

“Hey bully, stop being so mean” generally gets laughed at and an aggressive response.

Trump appeasement. Looks like he’s still pissed he was banned. Meta looking desperate.

Nope. It’s a US election, Trump appeasement thing. Meta replaced Nick Clegg (a UK liberal) with a Republican (Kaplan) for global affairs lead and this came out a few days later. A few days before they donated $1m to the inauguration ceremony. Prior to this, there was talk of Trump being pretty annoyed with Meta.

This is all shameful capitulation and political appeasement. They really teaching politicians how to do politics.

In order to avoid political confrontation, they sold all those that wanted a safe space.

Yes. I’m pretty sure Stallman isn’t on Facebook. Doesn’t even browse with JS enabled.

I do agree but I cannot say many in the demographic are on Lemmy…

This is not a strawman. I’m not misrepresenting your argument. I’m highlighting you’re being a negative fuck and there are other places for that.

Boomers don’t know what Linux is, they can barely use computers. I wouldn’t know one that would understand a meme about Linux.

Seems you’re going to be negative and double down.

Linux in a boomer meme? Wrong.

I get in some places, spouting negativity gets upvotes, but you ain’t on xitter or reddit, buddy.

The cult of musk. If you raise from your fan club you don’t get held to account.

You think Trump is going to do anything other than enable and empower racists? Why do you think the proud boys love him?

Also, easier to share a bath without one person having their head squashed to side of tap. If you put on hot water, you’re not getting the pain as it runs on to your feet. This is an innovation.

Many baths here in the UK have it in the corner against the wall.
