When you’re the biggest shop in your town it’s because you do good work.

When you’re the biggest shop in the world it’s because you’re scamming your clients.

That’s the system we have right now and it doesn’t work. Soooo…

This is like you breaking up with a toxic girlfriend and she tells you “oh yeah well other people are still gonna date me idiot!”

The point is that if max pay gap laws are passed, CEOs will just hide their actual pay in external resources and normal employees will still make exactly the same.

I’m not limiting this to work.

And of course you can have a relationship with someone remotely.

But overall, for the average person, in-person relationships are going to be stronger. Friends, family, romantic relationships, hobbies, work, you name it.

I think that any study you find over the past 30 years will show that while online relationships can be meaningful in some cases, the average person will not form as strong a connection as they would in person.

Because the #1 reason why employees will stay at a job that underpays them is because they like the people they work with. And you can’t form those bonds remotely.

The psychological ramifications of that are immense. It would destroy people. It would be no different than any other drug.

I love that though. I want to hear these wack jobs talk. I don’t listen to get smarter, just like I don’t go to McDonalds for a fine cooked meal.

This is a bit by a popular comedian that I cannot remember.

We were not prepared, as a species, for a device that let us come up with any opinion at all and find validation for it.

It used to be that when you had an opinion that was wrong, you’d say it out loud a number of times, and you’d notice that everyone around you would call you an imbecile and ridicule you. It would make you reassess yourself and grow as a person.

Now that societal failsafe is gone. Now people just aren’t challenged for holding the wrong opinion.

That was an integral part of growing up and maturing. We don’t have a solution for it.

But like - ok the conglomerations charge too much for rent and then no one can pay it. So then prices would fall right?

I just don’t get who is ultimately buying this stuff.

The job of the AAA gaming company is to make money, not good games.

For the same reason McDonalds is never going to serve filet mignon, big gaming companies are never going to release feature-compete passion projects.

Like what is actually going to happen?

No one can afford rent. No one can afford houses.

How are landlords and home sellers making money if no one can afford anything?

I don’t understand it. Who are these people out there paying $2200 per month for a one bedroom, or half a mil for a 1500 sq ft house? How are there that many buyers of these services to where the prices aren’t dropping?

People need to live somewhere. Wtf is happening and what is going to happen?

You can also just write your class again as some sort of additional specificity like

.myclass.myclass.myclass { color:red !important !important; }

Along with transforms being 3d or flat transform styles

The operating procedure of the internet

1. Scan feed
2. Find post where I can ridicule OP in some way
3. Engage

Have you tried the .ics download method?

I thought that the OS would see the ics file and automatically know to open your calendar app to deal with it.

Yeah the issue is that with large online communities, your largest user group is always going to be that of least engagement.

So users who just read stuff is your biggest group. Then comes users who made an account. Then comes users who up and downvote. And last comes users who post.

It makes it very hard to grow a new social media platform.

We make remote work viable.

NOT FOR US THO LMAO
