This has been happening ever since I can remember and I’m 40. Paper ballots need to be mandatory in all states and the vote counting software should be open source.

It’s fucking insane that we allow private companies to hide their code from us.

The initial claim was that thin clients are the “default” for large companies, and yes we can confidently say that’s bullshit.

I’m not surprised that healthcare could be an exception, given all the pii that is dealt with there. But thin clients are not the default at most companies.

It’s insane how people can’t just admit they they’re blatantly wrong about something and instead play this gaslighting game where they pretend something is unknowable.

The global size of the thin client market is less than $3 billion. Do you honestly believe that covers most “large corporations” on the planet? I guarantee you that employers with thin clients as the default workstation aren’t just a minority, they’re a niche market. https://finance.yahoo.com/technology/articles/thin-clients-global-strategic-business-103200706.html

The default? I’ve never worked for a corporation with thin clients as the main workstation for employees. The only place I worked at with thin clients was a federal government office.

Can’t believe this nonsense has so many updoots.

Yeah and I’m glad she doesn’t. However for me it felt different because I always assumed it was some exagerrated reality TV thing and instead it was a life or death scenario that hit close to home.

The title of the comic is “Jucika wants to sleep” which is a pretty big hint.

Also the animated version at the top of the thread makes it clear the radio is blaring music

There’s some info here but not all the details: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woman_yelling_at_a_cat

Basically the woman in the meme was in a season of Real Housewives. She was yelling at someone who was gossiping about her husband being a violent abusive prick. The woman was trying to hide his abuse because she was scared her husband might kill her or their kids if the abuse became public. So she’s basically in full flight or fight mode and terrified for her life in the meme picture because this other asshole is outing the abuse in front of everyone.

Her POS husband ended up committing suicide so at least she’s safe now though. But it hit me pretty hard to find all of this out because I went through a similar situation with my mom when I was a kid.

It’s one of my favorites too but I found out the reality behind it and it’s way darker and more depressing than I realized

Passive aggressive? This is just regular aggressive, guy. And the man deserves it for blaring his music at night with the window open.

It’s just bad design. What happens when/if the fediverse scales up to many more instances?

“an actual flying car” “product demonstration” lmao

It’s neither a flying car nor a product that will ever be sold on the market. Crazy how gullible the average person is.

I bet you’re one of those people who insisted FSD was right around the corner 10 years ago.

Helium is not extracted from the air

We’re just showing everyone else how gay it looks.

Or she’s just razzing him a bit. Crazy what a bunch of soft whiny crybabies men are these days.

That’s just another way of saying they’re right wingers who lie about it.

Black women don’t vote?? You’re a fucking moron. This is what happens when you take a handful of interactions and paint a whole group based on them.

Water treatment technicians are in very high demand. That’s my next move I think. It won’t pay half as well as tech but there’s room for growth and good benefits. I think I’m just about done working for these shitty executives.

Since you’re such an expert, why don’t you start organizing protests this way? See the many people you can reach in the modern world without using social media.

So you wouldn’t be able to organize anything at all, got it.

Lol, the house and Senate don’t get to refuse anything. The states send their representatives to Congress and they became the new Congress in January. This isn’t a special election.

They’re going to win control of at least the house, and from then on Trump will be a lame duck president. Any play at martial law won’t work and will just make Trump look like even more of a pathetic joke, they would need many millions of people in the army to actually enforce it and they don’t have anywhere near that.

So tired of the uneducated doomer shit on this site.

No they aren’t. I live in a rural area and independents are basically moderate Democrats without the branding. It’s the only way to win local elections without being in the GOP. And they do win elections pretty regularly
