Thanks, clickbait headlines are annoying.

A majority, 78%, of U.S. workers say they don’t take all their PTO days, and it’s highest among Gen Z workers and millennials

Younger professionals say they don’t ask for time off because they feel pressure to meet deadlines and be productive

Another article sensationalizing the term "millennial" for clicks. Millennials are in their 40s now.

Do you have any news articles (even local ones in German) to share regarding that? Would be interested in reading.

Sounds like they may have set it up to wipe for security paranoia, and maybe not to be jerks?

They're itching to tap into their 500 gallons of Prepper's Milk and Jerky stew. They want their larping to be real so hard. It pairs well with the religious nutters that think by killing others, they'll be allowed in Their God's Heaven. It's mind-boggling.

Kinda weird seeing what Steve Jobs would have eventually become, had he treated his cancer.

It's also partly because phones now require 60,000 antennae and radio waves don't go through metal. Wireless charging, NFC, wifi (x2), bluetooth, cellular (x4), UWB..... There's some ability to reuse the antennas via TDM and other tricks but they just "need" so many these days. Also also, plastic is kinda evil from a pollution standpoint, although one could also argue that it could just be recycled with the rest of the phone.

It is just waiting for a tipping point to kick the whole powder keg off, basically. Like a dormant volcano as the pressure builds below the surface. At that point, people will seem irrational and random, just because there are so many vectors of fail taking place in parallel.

Random example that comes to mind, was talking to a friend and they were mentioning their employer is going to start a weekend rotation for teams. One of the shifts has 3 people, so once every three weeks, one employee will be working 7 days a week. They previously had weekend staff to cover the weekend shift. The company's solution wasn't to hire more, redistribute, or one of the many other ways to solve the problem. Just, Lumberg from Office Space instead.

And the apps exist so the companies can at least gather telemetry from your mobile device, so you're still paying for them, just...in a different way.

I switched to a garlic shampoo.
