My workplace (manufacturing) has air conditioning, technically, but it has been busted for the last two years. It regularly gets over 90 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer, and last year, we had several people pass out. Supposedly, management has signed off on getting the air conditioning repaired, but only because it has been causing machines to overheat and malfunction.

If this plan passes, it would make summer conditions inside manufacturing plants like mine safer and more bearable for workers.

My TLDR version:

If finalized, new rules announced by the Labor Department would require employers to develop a plan to prevent heat-related injuries and take proactive safety measure if employees are regularly exposed to a heat index or “feels like” temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit (80°F) or higher.

Job site training and a plan to acclimate new workers to hot conditions are also required if the heat index tops 80°F. If the heat index at a work site exceeds 90°F, then paid rest breaks for 15 minutes every two hours become mandatory, and employers must actively monitor for heat exhaustion.

Heat index is the “feels like” temperature relative to humidity, and employees primarily working inside air-conditioned spaces or taking brief trips outside are not subject to the proposed rules. Instead, the proposed workplace standards focus on employees who are engaged in activities that could raise their core body temperature, according to the senior administration official.

It’s just different scammers now.

Every day, my work computers force a shutdown-update, take 20 minites, fail the update, recover from the failed update, and then force a 24-hour timer to do it again that I can’t turn off. IT doesn’t care.

I was hoping for an actual list of jobs he is barred from in the posted link, but it’s just another dime-a-dozen article on Trump’s conviction and riddled with ads.

I got grandfathered into YouTube Music since I was using Google Music when it got shut down. While not as good as Google Music, YT Music works well for me and has been building playlists suited to what I want to listen to. Plus, some lesser known local artists that only have their music on YouTube as video uploads will still show up on YouTube Music. I haven’t really tried any other serious streaming platforms, and only YT Music and Spotify natively sync to my car with maps.

I’m pretty sure that has been able to be emulated and run through most emulation software now. These Star Wars games had specific code and drivers that, when I looked up why it wouldn’t emulate years ago, had not been cracked open to get the source code to enable people to program it into emulation software.

The keyboard controls are very janky. You’d have to do custom button mapping with a controller, and there’s no analog input. At least not without some mods that I’m not sure exist.

IIRC, the original cartridge had an extra chip in it that emulation hasn’t been able to use. I’m not sure if any progress has been made on this and a few other games that used these.

This may be just the kind of response we need to bring about a sort of reform that prevents any MAGA style dictatorship in the present or future, but I can’t help but worry about the gun-nut trump lovers that will go out and murder anyone they _think is a democrat if this happens.

That’s not really what I was going for. Whoops. I probably should have worded it differently. The streaming-only crowd shouldn’t really be affected that much is the point I meant to make.

I think the point they were trying to get across, at least in the notice they sent me, is people are losing this because crunchyroll has no implementation for these digital copies. It wasn’t clear if they were going to add this feature to crunchyroll, but I bet they are waiting to see how much of a shitstorm it causes before determining if it’s worth the revenue loss of the people leaving.

You can transfer your watchlist and show progress to Crunchyroll, but the only thing that doesn’t transfer is digital purchases. I don’t think many people actually have purchased content, so most people aren’t losing anything.

Edit: dang man people hate this comment lol, I wasn’t trying to say it wasn’t a bad move. The less-than-most people who did purchase digital copies are getting screwed.

Edit 2: I didn’t really consider the digital copies that come with dvd and blu-ray purchases. The notice they sent me sounded like they didn’t have any of this implemented in crunchyroll. It smells like they are testing how much money they can save against how much revenue is lost from people leaving because of this before making any promises.

Or stripper.
