Agreed. Netflix does a lot of dumb shit for inexplicable reasons. There’s a similar issue with basic descriptions. They used to be known for their quirky content descriptions, but now, so many content descriptions are just a list of credits or acclaim quotes. How are you supposed to know of you’re interested or not with zero information regarding what it is about?
It could be the first as well, given the religious motivations of the law.
Maybe. Without it, though, the individual would have to build and maintain a site, direct traffic there, and handle payments, as well still do all of the community management and content creation they already do. Now either they’d spend their own time doing this if they have the knowledge, or pay others, which might meet or exceed that 20% depending on their income level.
The previous commenter is saying that the company makes serious money.
Or the people who are determined to discuss bullshit at length that is completely unrelated while there is an extended line behind them. I’m empathetic if you’re lonely, but this isn’t the time or place. Take your ass to a bar (you can order food/non-alcoholic drinks if you like), and you can run your mouth to the patrons there. You can also go to parks, live sports, live music, hobbie/enthusiast events, etc. All these events have people you can mingle with, but fucking lines with captive employees and other people tattooed behind you trying to conduct business isn’t the place.
Oh, ok. I definitely didn’t read it in this case.
Damn, I didn’t know that was a thing either, lol. I’d play retro games on the TV remote.
Wasn’t it all mobile games? I’m pretty sure that was the exact market they were looking for. People with short attention spans that can’t put down the phone, even while consuming other media.
Are you just eating these toquitos without reheating them? If you reheat them properly (high enough temp), then you’ll be fine. The big issue is ready to eat items.
This is all a misunderstanding! The high price IS the regular price. We lower the prices at certain times to benefit our customers, who we love so very much. This is totally not surge pricing!
That, and I’m just proficient enough with computers to fuck shit up.
That could very well be the case. I was on a beater laptop previously that was no longer functioning with windows and I needed something for school. I remember I that I wasn’t able to get the wifi card to work with Linux so I ended up getting an external card. It likely is different now and I have a proper desktop, but the experience was rough and I’m not eager to repeat it, lol.
I use 11 and don’t see any ads and have telemetry turned off. I’m not sure where this is coming from, but I keep hearing it, and it doesn’t mesh with my experience.
I’ve personally thought about going back to Linux, and I still might next time I upgrade my MOBO, but the thought of all the effort it will take to get all of my hardware working again is exhausting. That was the greatest struggle before I even approached software issues. I’ve heard it is better these days, but I’m not an expert or a programmer, so I’m essentially relying that someone else has had my use case, solved it, and made it publicly available which is not always the case.
I’ll give you that, but that other commenter seemed to think it wouldn’t be “fair” if another employee used it, and they didn’t, which is a very childish notion. Depending on severity and duration, I could even see it being a talking to. I do also see not being able to find this employee suitable for a position of trust, which they may have been in given their salary. If the employer can’t trust you to self-regulate on something as simple as a meal voucher, I don’t see how they could trust you at large.
I’m just explaining how the real world works. For instance, I supervise other employees. Their hourly rate is lower than mine, however, the real cost of many of the employees I supervise far exceeds my real cost. How? Well, some have dependants and they are included on their health insurance. Beyond that, some have chosen different providers or higher option plans than I have. There are other benefits that can increase their real cost to the employer. Does that mean my employer owes me the difference in cash or other tangible rewards based on how I choose to take advantage of the benefits offered? What if I chose not to contribute to my retirement, do they owe me that match percentage, even though that’s not his it’s outlined? This is absurd. There are problems with capitalism and corporations in this country, but expecting people to follow simple guidelines regarding a meal voucher isn’t one of them, especially for well compensated employees. Realistically, meta could probably refer this to the local police as fraud if they chose to.
This was for sites that didn’t have a cafeteria. They offered this as a way to provide food, while on-site, if the employee would like to. This childish notion that “sOmBoDy GoT mOrE tHaN mE!” is ridiculous. This wasn’t supposed to be for personal monetary gain. Employees with sites that had cafeteria are not handed cash or allowed to select household goods if they choose not to eat at the cafeteria. This isn’t something that should really have to be explained to grown-ass adults making 400k a year. This is just an extreme level of entitlement and I can’t believe people are making me defend a company who’s products I refuse to use.
Right? I promise not to scheme on $10 worth of toothpaste.
That would make it more plausible. I don’t think you’re an idiot, I was asking because I was curious if there was precedent for a jackass conspiracy minded employee handing out medical advice causing liability for a business. I wouldn’t think it is right, but I also don’t agree with other legal standards, lol.
Would a court find Walmart liable for your decision to take medical advice from a random employee? I’m sure Walmart could demonstrate that the employee was not acting in the capacity of their role and any reasonable person would not consider drinking bleach because an unqualified walmart employee told them so.
One of my favorite moments on reddit was spotting a bot that spouted unrelated nonsense. I checked the comment history and found users responding earnestly to the nonsense. While it was hilarious, it was also quite sad, the state of those people.
