11·11 months agoH1Bs are payed 40-60 cents on the dollar while you can work them harder and they can’t whine or get sent home… So…it does help the bottom line.

3·11 months agoI had to turn it off… especially the sales guy with AI… The amount of buzzwords he kept repeating made it just unwatchable… and once they trotted out the business partners I had to just turn it off.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•As an average OG ex-redditor, Lemmy needs to move away from it's base barebones UI to something like Photon by default, here's why.English
6·1 year agoThe ootb experience is what matters to most. As people seem to just want it to work. I personally love the bare bones… but most users don’t really customize much or want to conduct a whole study on alternative apps or settings. I would be fine with polished and basic settings complemented with an advanced settings menu and other apps.

Technology@lemmy.world•Intel Announces Retirement of CEO Pat GelsingerEnglish
0·1 year agoProfits go up if you don’t invest in your company but instead pay your shareholders. But at some point you atrophied your R&D so much you have fallen behind and then the question becomes, do you bleed it dry and sell it for parts, or revitalize by investing. And if revitalizing is still viable.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Should Germany aquire nuclear weapons?
94·1 year agoWhy not? This is contingent on the US being an unreliable nuclear umbrella… And Germany deciding they will be part of the EU’s nuclear deterrence.

72·1 year agoYou don’t need many nowadays. They can be city killers all by themselves… a single satan 2 missile Russia is so desperate to get working would be able to wipe new York of the map…
It would additionally require a few subs for second strike capability.

Games@lemmy.world•Steam is 'an unsafe place for teens and young adults': US senator warns Gabe Newell of 'more intense scrutiny' from the government if Valve doesn't take action against extremist contentEnglish
1·1 year agoThere you go again… creating this distance and making me out as a bad guy… I’m wondering what your end game is?
So is discord a Nazi bar? Is that what you are saying? Because I’ve found myself in plenty of discords of games that have fun low key communities with an image of peppe holding a cool sign amongst all the other game and internet nonsense…
And yes the radicalization pipeline is freaking scary. But keep in mind that constantly alienating people like what you seem to be doing… creates the vacuum to be filled.
Years ago when Rogan was still a rube interviewing deer hunters, taxidermists, astronauts and other real people… I Nopee out when the peterson, Jones lineup became common… I saw the swing happening… it was vicious… and I’ll bet they took a whole swath of his audience with them.
The left needs to provide a narrative, something that people can latch on to and aspire to… to pull them in, because the policies and goals are what we all need. At this moment screetching, calling everyone a Nazi and alienating people is not helping anyone…

2·1 year agoI fear it is the latter. Nuance seems to get lost over time. It’s maybe the opposite of black people in the US using the N word amongst themselves in an attempt to take it back… I don’t think that this was successful by any measure as it just caused the racist to point at it and say… see they even say it about themselves because only hoodlums (what a word) use it…



Nope, imprisonment costs society money. This way all the migrants will be busy keeping their heads down and hiding, meaning they can be abused by employers as any resistance will be dealt with by ICE.
If working illegals was something the government wanted to stop, employers would be imprisoned if caught employing an illegal. Then it would stop overnight… but this is not the route chosen.
