Meanwhile they’re looking at the Northern European Enclosure Dam, that would completely dam the North Sea. The battle continues.

Even worse, it’s completely real. It was the common situation for me before corona. Also driving an entire day for a 1 hour meeting.

Every good person is actually a bad person trying to atone for something horrible they did.

That kind of stuff always reminds me of an episode from a show about rich people. They showed a rich mother organizing a birthday party for her toddler that was ridiculously fancy and having a complete meltdown because some napkins were another shade of pink. That’s the worst that life has ever given her, a different shade of napkins.

Florida signed a law to ban protection for workers against heat so more headlines to follow in 2025.

Another company I had contact with did a few layoffs. Afterwards the recruitment department had a lot more issues finding people. Experienced people would ask a premium because of that company’s reputation in the industry and the experienced people would usually stay a short time and leave. The other option was hiring fresh graduates and put effort in training them.

As long as it looks good on paper, somebody in higher management is getting a bonus for this.

Thus the value of the art is reduced to an idea and the human labor invested. The labor is practically zero and an idea is worth nothing. That means there is nothing worthwhile to copyright

the final product belongs to the artist, and so should be protected by law for them.

Then the real artist, the AI, should request the copyright. And sue the charlatan that tried to take its work and claim all credit.

From what I can find, there was a lot of barley, wheat, rye. Meat and fish. Peas, cabbage, apples, pears, grapes, honey, legumes, herbs, cheese.

Recipes turn out to be a lot of bread with cheese, meat or stews, with wine or beer. And also things like pancakes and other baked goods.

“The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.” –James D. Nicoll

Repeat a lie often enough and people believe it. Especially if you get then angry first so critical thinking is shut down. Help that along with social media echo chambers and 24/7 “news” broadcasts. Add cult of personality around it and you get this.

It’s a wet category 4. It’s the type that carries months of rain and looks for a place to dump it all in a few hours. They create a lot of flood damage. A dry cat 4 would do wind damage and storm surges but not the water bombing.

The scale doesn’t say how wet a storm is, just how fast the wind is. Revising this scale is still being discussed.

It’s pretty common that angry revolutionaries are used by another rich bastard to get into power by usurping the movement. The classic “meet the new boss, same as the old boss.”

Soylent Green is a lie anyway. Your need to “soylentify” half the population to feed the other half every year if it would be the only source of calories.

These people know their voters won’t use any critical thinking and refuse any contrary info anyway

And privatize weather predictions so you don’t see it coming either.

Workers start a worker owned cooperative that undercuts the old boss.

“NOT LIKE THAT!”

Yes. The other liquid only has half the DNA and they don’t do half price.

How bad of a manager can you be to not understand this?

It’s a factory owned by Musk, so power tripping, being abusive and borderline illegal behavior is baked into the business model, probably including a furious Musk visiting from time to time to shout at management he wants results by tomorrow and does not want to hear any excuses. And that’s how shit flows downstream and pressure is put onto the line workers, and the good managers shut up and find another employer to work for.
