despite overwhelming opposition from union members

It sounds to me like the author needs to look up “overwhelming” in the dictionary.

I like how this is posed as a question even though the CEO is supposed to be responsible for the company’s fortunes by default. That’s why they’re paid so much, right?

Fun fact: Trans-Siberian Orchestra was born out of the band Savatage.

The unanswered question is: what are we going to do about it?

Unfortunately the answer looks to be: Not much.

The UK isn’t a big enough market for Apple to castrate their entire marketing push for. Hopefully.

I was in southern Bavaria last summer and I so wanted to find a stranger.

They have taken control of personnel and payment systems because they knew the people running them would obey the law. And these people do not give a fuck about the law.

Well, no shit. Who actually expected the Israelis to stop killing people?

The stuff is basically poison, so in spite of the assuredly awful motivations I’m not against it.

Having said that, Republicans seem to always have ulterior motives, so I’d be reading the fine print before voting.

Fascism. That’s what’s going on.

I interviewed a bunch of years ago with a company called “xmode social” (I was in desperate need of a job. I fortunately did not get that one.) They had a framework that they paid app publishers in to include in their apps. That framework collected your location data and sent it to xmode who sold that data. That was their entire business AFAIK.

Objective–C is a strict superset of C. Anything that’s valid C can be used in an Objective–C file.

The word they’re avoiding is “suppress”. It needs to be suppressed because they don’t want anymore CEOs getting what they deserve.

Trump: Ok, how about Ukraine declares unconditional surrender and Zelensky is hung in Red Square.
Putin: No, not got good enough.

Buy shit (if you’re in an area affected by the strike), cancel the order when the strike ends.

The problem with him is that he doesn’t uphold his agreements. Combine that with him thinking that the President is King and the US is an extension of himself means that you can no longer trust the US to uphold its agreements. So, no we are no longer allies in any way that you can count on. I’d suggest that Canada pay lip service to the “allies” bit, but not count on it in any way.
