Sorry we took your new born away, but ya know, we just can't afford a better test.

Hey, if there are no descendants left, there will be no one to hate you.

Silver linings!

The CTO of the previous company (1000+ employees , multinational) where I worked as an exec right under the CTO had a habit of not being able to keep his hands to himself. He was married but had a taste for men working under him.

Hed beeen around pulling shit for months until i was called in, i met him in person, he immediately started to "just tickle" me, and I reported his ass right away. Internal investigations were had and they fired him.

But not after allowing him as his final act to fire me because I was "not management material", had nothing to do with me blowing the whistle on him feeling up his employees. The company allowed him to do this because i was now a risk to them.

So the lesson here is to keep your head down, enable abusers, lest you want your career in the shitter

Edit: I fully agree with you, but the way it currently stands it's impossible to fight back to high level execs

Pretty sure all those industries continue doing all that shit today

Oh thank you, finally. KDE connect has been pretty much useless since its Inception because of these things

Honestly, what did he do wrong? He made crappy cheap music and listened to it using AI and bots. listening to it must have cost him subscription money, so I guess he just listened enough to get the songs popular enough so that other would listen, and they did and everyone made money.

Yeah, it's all cheap shit but it's wrong when he does it but totally fine when so many other media companies do it?

Not sure which law specifically, but if you receive dictator money tonstar spreading around fake news to influence local elections in favor of said dictator, then I'm sure there are entire books full of laws that they broke.

This shit has been going on for decades now, the lies, the obvious shilling (hello fox news) I hope they rot in jail for life for the hurt they caused.

Yeah, no.

Your body isn't a simple laptop where you plug out some broken componi, replace that component, and you're done. There is a reason why even "simple" nurses go through years of training before being able to call themselves nurses.

If it comes to your body, shits complicated, yo!

Everyone should, must have the right to good quality healthcare, but it can't be from yourself, by yourself. You need a doctor!

Even those trans humanist types that put magnets and such in their bodies are really on the edge with what will and won't kill you. Add DIY CRISPR sets, which is just the worst thing I've ever heard, and you have arecipe for disaster.

Well alright then, that means you have the wrong business model, sucks to be you, NEXT.

Nope

There are other ways they do that, like thrird party cookies, and combining data from many, many sources.

Apps simply CAN'T access those kinds of things unless you allow it. You can check this in the apps permissions on your phone if you're not sure. If microphone access is allowed, then yeah, they'll be listening, probably. But remove that permission and you'll be fine
