Do you know many successful law firms that don’t have administrative support?

Have fun finding ways to arbitrarily make yourself feel superior to people that are working just as hard if not harder

Equitable != equal. Shares can and should be distributed commiserate to input. If I work 50-60 hours a week and hire you to do 10 hours of work then obviously equal share is unfair.

However, at the same time, why do you inherently value the lawyer over the secretary? Both do a full weeks work, both are essential to the companies success. You are just attached to consumerism and the idea of hierarchy; that you should be able to be “better than” people you deem as peons. Does the janitor not deserve a fair share either because you will use some bullshit framing like “unskilled labor” to dismiss their essential contributions?

No person should own any company unless they are the sole employee. Ownership should be shared with workers in equitable stakes as the company expands.

It’s been ages since I watched Jurassic park but what could the spoiler possibly be? The dinosaurs escape? They have a predictable happy ending and get out okay? It’s a good movie but it’s not really a “plot twist” kind of movie

Depends on what kind of sprinkler system and how old it is. Some of them are closed systems and the water stays stagnant until it’s set off, so when it finally goes the water itself is a hazard because it’s been sitting potentially for years. It tends to come out very disgusting, black sludge that smells like actual shit. And then you have a whole specialized response and cleanup required because it’s loaded with bacteria.

They won’t clean it though, they’ll piss away more money to hire specialized cleaners and contractors to fix the damage

It’s also worth noting that microplastics appear in basically all body tissue, including the brain, when looking at samples from cadavers in recent years. I don’t remember the name offhand but one study found enough microplastics in the average brain to make a plastic spoon.

So this might be more of a correlative thing, hopefully. Because the world ain’t stopping with plastic everything

I have a friend who had a c section birth that otherwise had no complications (other than requiring a c section. They were in the hospital 4 days iirc, way less than a week. Insurance was billed for 98,000. They had a 10k out of pocket max, thankfully

Consent is a key factor.

If you mail me an ad? Fuck you.

If I search out your service and find you? Okay. Though people game this system obviously. Google used to fight back against this but now they don’t care and even have just given in, allowing pay to play. So fuck that too

It’s a stupid policy but it’s playing to the base of stubborn idiots and boomers. I know of several boomers that get irrationally angry at the fact that their engine stops and they have to wait a quarter of a second sometimes for their brand new car to start at a red light. You point out that this gives an appreciable increase in fuel economy, sometimes significant, and they don’t give a shit because they’re selfish assholes who would destroy the entire world to not be inconvenienced for the briefest of moments.

Those people will remember this

You can make your own if you know how to fuck with css

Alternatively bc I agree that jellyfin clients are weak you can just use kodi as a client, which also looks horrendous by default, but has 20+ years of themes

I saw it too. It also made no sense because his fears are not addressed in any way. He lays out all these intense concerns about AI in his home and the result is literally having the AI go “oh hey don’t worry about that here’s a thing to distract you”, he takes the bait, and then it just ends.
