WHY?? I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY THEY NEED SO MUCH FOR THEMSELVES?? the billionaire desire to hoard resources specifically for themselves while the rest of the country fights for their scraps should make you sick!! these parasites are why life in this country is so difficult!! enough!
Being able to treat politics as “background noise” at tech talks is a privilege of being a straight white dude. For others, politics isn’t a side quest, it’s survival.
In recent years I've attended multiple software conference talks that had unrelated extreme political rhetoric in slides, such as "fuck [name]" and "punch [group]".
Whenever this happened, some of the audience would clap and cheer, I'd roll my eyes, and the talk would get back on topic.
Fast-forward to today, and look at how many people in our industry are openly celebrating the murder of someone they decided was a "nazi" and "fascist". Turns out these people were more serious than I thought.
As someone who's repeatedly been called a "nazi" and "fascist" myself for disagreements with far-left ideology, I know how easily those labels get thrown around. And honestly, this is making me seriously reconsider which conferences I attend.
There's a hateful rot within our industry. It shouldn't be socially acceptable to cheer for murder. We need to do more than roll our eyes.
Reminds me of when men broke the fingers of a sex robot, molested it and heavily soiled it at a tech fair
It's not about whether the robot has feelings, it's about why these men get so excited about harming something when they know there are no consequences
Tefal greenwashing in practice: a 2 year-and-1-month old hand blender stopped working. Apparently it can't be repaired in an economically responsible way. The website flooded with reparability commitment messages and all. #tefal#greenwashing
@DHLNL help, I have no clue where my package is. I specified Scapino as delivery location, I got this paper in mailbox with completely different location, and your app says 'zending by coerier voor aflevering'. What do?
@transavia I booked a flight through travel agency, but had to book the seats directly through your website. Flight got cancelled due to Corona. How do I proceed for a refund? Thanks!
