how would you know ahead of time? mostly (in USA at least) you don’t get a choice. when you join a job if they have a union you have to join, even if its corrupt. how can you prevent them from becoming corrupt?

unions would probably make sure all juniors have to work weekends. kinda like airline unions make juniors work 10x unpaid labor hours than the seniors
thanks for reminding me of those. it gave me a laugh to think about people holding those worthless things
the watches still work fine with an old OS. my son uses my old watch gen 1. it just doesn’t have all the new features or whatever
Ads are built. what do they need engineers for?
what babies crave!
seriously, are you gonna baptize that baby in toilet water?!
no, it was XP
yeah i hated that move. XP was so much better than 7. they went really bland, moved all the most useful quick controls, started the process of destroying the control panel… ugh
Windows updates used to be seen as upgrades. I remember getting Win95 to run on my 386 with 8MB of RAM (which my buddy said wouldn’t be able to handle it). I was so stoked to have it working because 95 had so many improvements over 3.1. Of course each release had its issues but after some service packs they were usually pretty good.
Maybe it started with Windows ME, but it definitely was in full effect by Vista, where new releases became downgrades. XP was the last great version, when I had to move on from that everything started getting much worse UX-wise.
now your bill will increase to make up for it
APAB. Fucking bullshit!
the two ways to increase profitability: bundling and unbundling
that is what i’ve done. you can even disconnect one from the internet and plug in a box any time
yeah if anything a subsidy for safer tires and doing proper maintenance on brakes and other safety system would be what you want.
what is subsidized, there is more of than there otherwise would be
and the opposite is true for what is taxed.
most of the self checkouts i have used in the past 5 years or so have not even included the “scale” as part of the process. i do remember maybe once or twice that being an issue but it almost never happens any more. 10 years ago they were all “scale stupid” but it seems like that died off at least here in the eastern US
the first time someone not expecting this surge pricing finds out they have to pay more because it’s lunch time, they will not be coming back to wendys ever again
spoiler warning: it won’t
machine buzzes you are a bad mother
haha, somebody made this exact same comment on hacker news!
ah, thanks for explaining that. if there is an option to join or not join, then the unions would have some incentive to do a good job. but in the usa, that isn’t an option, so every union eventually turns corrupt.
I’m sure that was done intentionally, to render unions (worse than) useless.
