Oh damn, I totally missed that lol, I take back that part of my criticism - I also found the source from a yelp review I think and linked that as an update

This site is worse than a repost

The source is a reddit post it seems and Hindustan times is just doing a highlight reel of that post without linking it. Hindustan times has a low credibility score from https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/hindustan-times and didn’t add any journalism

~~Searching it’s quote’s (being forced to use Google, since they pay Reddit to index them …) it comes from this article https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/comments/1fb097q/where_would_you_report_this_kind_of_behaviour/~~

And doing a quick skim of comments there was no additional clarity.

So… Probably not real

UPDATE: I found the source, from yelp, with the name uncensored: https://www.yelp.com/biz/maxines-sparta

It’s a small restaurant in Michigan, there’s already people giving them flak and bad reviews, so please don’t add to that

Fuck Kroger

They killed Lucky’s. It was the best damn grocery store I’ve ever had. It had such potential.

Fuck the commodification of culture.

Fuck full time content creators.

I don’t want people working full time on social networks. I don’t want to read your ad, your secret knowledge, your product placement, or sponsorship, or your oh so subtle pitch for VC funding. I’m certainly not going to give money.

I want people who do their own thing in the real world, and as a hobby and show-and-tell, submit their work freely to the Internet to hone and expand their craft and field, and gain organic enrichment altruisticly.

If you want to sell stuff and make money, make your own website and store. Not on our forum.

Don’t pollute our forum. I want to be inspired, be in awe, be entertained, be informed, and to give back in my own way that continues this cycle and fuels the forum.

We’ve fled so many greedy sites - fleeing this capitalistic parasite in hopes of finding honest discussion untainted by greed. I’m tired of fleeing.

It’s a well written article worth reading in full

In the government’s telling, the school routinely missed compliance obligations in large part because the researchers found dealing with security protocols “burdensome.” And when the researchers complained, admins gave in.

This is a good motivator, security is important, and there will always be a spectrum between convenience and security, and it’s easy to drift too far down to the dangerously convenient side of the spectrum.

This Georgia Tech lab got dangerously convenient security policies, lied about it, got ratted out, and now is the government’s displayed example.

Now it’s either getting pwned or getting sued, instead of just risking the former. Hopefully this will motivate more people to take security more seriously, especially when hosting sensitive data, and especially when accepting federal government money.

I was wondering what all that downward pressure was on the stocks

All good

She was a prosecutor before becoming an attorney general, then a senator, and then of course a VP.

While she has enforced the law as a prosecutor, as was her job, when it came to policy making she has been consistently progressive, and much more aligned with Bernie and the left than the center.

I don’t think this is well known, and some people think she’s just another centrist neo-liberal, but that is not the case when you look into what’s she’s done

When the headlines are about random maga types being quoted calling her “little whore” and n-words - it’s clear that yeah, the -isms are indeed out and about, the media is just reporting it.

The reality cannot be denied, they aren’t deep faking the clips.

The maga crowd dosnt counter her policies, her voting record, her career, her speech, her age, her cognitive function

They go after what she was born with and what that crowd has been indoctrinated to hate.

That’s where the ism’s come from.

And yet my company is forcing me back into the office, I’ve been resisting for over a year, and now they’re threatening hr->path to firing for insubordination if I don’t come in… I’ve been working remotely effectively since March 2020.

Started sending out applications to actual remote jobs, it just sucks, it was a good gig while it lasted.

Three negatives!

Extrapolating:

• I can say I’m happy to not live in a place with mosquitoes
• I can say I’m unhappy to live in a place with mosquitoes
• I can’t say I’m happy to live in a place with mosquitoes

The USDA told Reuters that Mexican exports from the western state of Michoacán have not been blocked. Additionally, avocados and mangos already in transit wouldn’t be affected by the suspension of inspections, which would be paused “until further notice.”

So we’re saying “if you beat up our people, we’ll stop enforcing our policies and still do business with you”

Cool

I’ll make a point to not buy Mexican avocados and mangos until this is fully resolved because who knows what’s happening with them if the people who are charged with ensuring their safety get beaten up.

Thank you for all the guidance and insight

Off the top of my head

Potentially odeysee, peertube, or maybe even twitch, more likely I could see subscription platforms like patreon and nebula taking over

Potentially something entirely new, I don’t know

Reddit did that and then instantly multiple serious competitors began to siphon off their power users both out of principle and practicality, it was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

YouTube i think understands to not cross the line because if they no longer have a monopoly on mid to long form content their golden goose dies. People are already on edge after a long sequence of attacks against non-premium users.

Personally, If they do do that, and at least some amount of the channels I care about move to a different platform, I’ll happily move with them and cancel my YouTube premium.
