  • I dont think replicated food is that bad in Star Trek.

    Jump

  • yeah that one made me think they subtly changed it to the "energy ghost" method instead of the old Trek deconstruction thing. TNG tried to hint that the Federation had basically totally mastered energy to matter conversion and back again.

    i guess to the point where all these weird particles with silly names could just be conjured up from space-time itself because you've basically tapped into the earliest stage of the universe

  • Chinese company 'Henan Kuangshan Crane Co.' handed out 70% of its 2025 profits (the equivalent of $26 million dollars) to its 7000 employees. They celebrated it by bringing the money to a showroom whe

  • and this is just a little taste of market socialism now imagine if they did it on their entire economy

    also i have been able to convince every human i have direct contact with, left right whatever that we should do a cooperative economy/market socialist system. it's the easiest way to spread communist concepts because it's still a market economy and there is this whole empowerment/every person a small business/let's all get rich angle to it. personally i'd rather have a centrally planned economy using expert systems/AI/whatever but i'll take what i can get

    i pine for a day when market socialism is considered the "far right" ideology

  • i really wish there would be a technobabble reboot with transporter operation to either a personal wormhole through subspace or a perfect matter to energy conversion and back again

    instead of being deconstructed and reconstructed you are just transformed into an energy ghost for a nanosecond and all the M-theory strings are combed back to being matter again and you materialize

  • Google's Agentic AI wipes user's entire HDD without permission instead of server cache— “I am absolutely devastated to hear this. I cannot express how sorry I am"

  • i wish i had a little assistant virtual intelligence type thing to make phone calls for me, keep me organized and on task but i would never trust any of this shit

    in our hypothetical world socialist government there will be agents available for neuroatypical people that want them until many of the stressors of capitalist society finally relieve pressure from us

    but i think some of these people are hoping they can do grifts, cons, scams at transophonic speeds. in the end just like the corps it's that they demand free labor

  • How many times a year do you call out sick to work?

    Jump

  • my job runs on a skeleton crew so and has a shit culture where everyone just powers through it. to my shame i went over a decade without a call out (when there were times i should have)

    as i've gotten older i probably now average about twice a year (mostly injuries). we can have 5 "occurrences" before things get written up unless you take FMLA time.

    only plus is they give us a check for our sick hours not used at end of year or my manager will just cash them out whenever if we want extra money. FT theoretically get 40 hours for sick time a year (it can vary a bit and doesn't all come into existence at once instead it's spread out and slowly bumps up)
