Oh I agree it would help with birth rates. And mental health of the population. But healthy isn’t what we do around here. I watched a woman with 1 arm being told off last night at work that she wasn’t likely to be able to keep her performance numbers up and should consider quitting instead of trying to ask her if she would find a better fit somewhere else that would work better for her situation. They are hiring like crazy so just about every position is open. The people watch you go through a metal detector on the way in and tell you to take your keys out and try again. You can do that all day with 1 arm. (Strange that we have that, but huge company and many expensive parts I assume they are worried people might be walking out with. Or maybe it’s for cameras coming in… Idk. Either way, they are hiring for positions that don’t require you to belittle someone but rather find a better use, it’s not like they could have gotten through interviews and paperwork without disclosing they had a disability. (Not to mention companies get tax write offs for having employees with disabilities last I checked)

-sorry for the rant, new contract one week down and learning what kind of company it is

I believe in leave for having a child but how do you picture this working unless it is government funded? Lad and lass get out of college at 22. Enter their first job. Are there for 6 months to a year, and then take a year off, go back to work for 6-12 months, off for a year. Now they are 25-26 years old, 2 kids and have at most 2 years of experience in their field. Have only worked for the company for most 2 years and had 2 years off. In which then many would leave that job as it no longer fits around their schedules assuming the business didn’t do layoffs and such.

I know a lot of people think they’ll wait till their older to have kids but a lot of that is about time and financial security. If I knew my job was secure when I was coming out of college I would have married my then fiancee and would have reproduced 2-3 times at that age. Putting 60,000 young humans in a small area made for a lot of active fit horny people. I know a lot of Universities are smaller, but either way, I can’t see any small businesses surviving it. They’d all have to choose to hire 35+ year old workers to lower their odds of paying out the leave. (Unless like mentioned previously it’s all covered by the state)

Maybe I am remembering the wrong movie but I feel like I learned that in a cheesy romcom, “A Perfect Pairing.” Always be a guilty pleasure for me, always wonder if those are more offensive in their depictions of slang/dialect than accurate.

Many families don’t throw away guns, they pass them down. So antiques are a plenty as well. Being that his dad was born in 1915, it’s very likely they have guns from before WW1 around.

The difference is Biden is a gun owner. So at least it would be buying a product he actually has. There has been incidents referencing him and his wife having at least a shotgun (so 2+ guns)

With Trump hating on electric cars like he had for so long, and not knowing how to drive, it’s a bit different.

Control shift C used to copy formatting and control shift v would paste the formatting. So if you pasted in a word doc or excel you could copy the font style and size from the cell or paragraph next to it and paste it over the weird.

Then control shift C in Teams decided it would call everyone in the group chat at fucking once.

Where are you sourcing that from? (That’s way higher than most are claiming for either side) Also, that has nothing to do with what we were talking about

Most every Russian troop being killed is via drone. Something like 96% of those drones are produced in Ukraine. Funding a war is expensive, especially when you are vastly out numbered population wise. Of course they want as much aid as possible.

I thought that said Dicks Rule at first and I was like huh, I guess they do have a tendency to take most of the high positions

It’s strange to me that it is referred to as CSAM. No people are involved so no one is a being sexually assaulted. It’s creepy but calling it that implies a drawing is a person to me.

Honestly it’s all about usage. Fought a lot with PopOS and Mint recently, learned nothing. Partner handed me a laptop with Windows 11 asking about a “grinding sound” and I cleaned out the fan checked everything in the OS and it was all fine. 11 ran like butter on that cheap laptop. I get that people bitch about Windows, but for the most part it is bullshit bitching. 11 ran laps around Mint and Pop during my use of it. PopOS is still loading its PopStore or what not and Mints Cinnamon is running updates for days while 11 finished it’s tasks yesterday. I love Linux and all, but this thing that Windows in inoperable is just dumb. They put ads and shit, it sucks. But the os runs really fucking well for so many people, that they don’t find a reason to switch.
