  • Ford Worker Suspended for Calling Trump a ‘Pedophile Protector’ Says He Has ‘No Regrets Whatsoever’

  • An employee on the work clock? Of course he is representing the company. If I see someone and they have a uniform then they are representing their company. They might be representing themself as well (personal reputation) but they are also representing their employer and their actions reflect on the company.

    I think Trump is a piece of shit but you are in the wrong in this regard.

  • If you are in the USA and are on public assistance, then https://pcsrefurbished.com/sales/salesHome is a great place, especially for laptops. My last laptop from here is a HP Zbook 15 Fury G8 with a Nvidia RTX A2000 for $175.

  • Much more tightly controlled than that, given the audience. It's early days, though, so time will tell.

  • Apex Engine will offer optional AI tools for developers, including game developers. It's under very heavy development so won't really be available for a few years or so.

  • Tailscale is a virtual private network (VPN). It connects everything together that is connected to it as though they are all in the same place. You might be physically at your in-laws house but your device is communicating with a private network over your in-laws' network.

  • I got jumped in 10th P.E. in the locker room by a bunch of guys in the class. I got in trouble for defending myself with a weapon (locker padlock) and forced to apologize to my attackers who were not punished in any way.

    In 12th grade in another state, I got attacked by a bully. I happened to have on me a rusty box cutter that I almost threw away that morning because it was falling apart. For some reason, I put it in a pocket instead. When I was attacked, I remembered it and used it. I got suspended for 3 days but the bully had to get tetanus shots.

  • And it only takes one person with a grudge to cause a problem. I have seen it. I have shared accounts but very carefully and if someone abuses it then they permanently lose access to my stuff even if they are family.

  • People see me in cargo pants, polo shirt, a smartphone in my shirt pocket, and sometimes tech stuff in my (cargo) pants pockets and they assume that I am good at computers. I have an IT background and have been on the Internet since March of 1993 so they are correct. I call it the tech support uniform. However, people could dress similarly to try to fool people.

    People will find ways, maybe makeup and prosthetics or AI modifications, to try to fool this system. Maybe they will learn to fake emotions. This system is a tool, not a solution.

  • Previously? Or now? Someone that I have known for a long time got treatment and she said that it sucked. She almost died twice. Even with the best of intentions (yeah, right) I expect a poor experience especially at the scale that they are talking about. However, my question is why are they doing the equivalent of arresting someone and sending them to treatment by saying that they are sending people to treatment without the formality of arresting them.

  • Maybe they were the first to go because your company didn't want them around no matter how skilled they might. It seems odd that all of them would be let go. That implies that your company decided to only hire incompetent people because of the color of their skin and refused to hire any minorities that were competent.
