This is kinda the cheaper method, much less severance to pay when it’s a voluntary separation - from the linked article:
workers who choose not to relocate will be eligible for a one-time voluntary exit program with a cash payment
This is lately referred to as a ‘stealth layoff.’
Here are a bunch of pics of skate eggs: https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Egg_cases_(Chondrichthyes)
And just fyi, this AI enhanced article is referencing an actual thing, but the images n the article are trash and so are some of the inferences. Here is the summary video from the source: https://youtu.be/e9nM7B_d13A
That is a pacific skate, and that is the adult form!
Which to me says that the key takeaway is we were always the smarter ones 🤷♂️
In this day and age is it possible to create a commune? With majority of vegetables coming from one acre and all put in to get wifi to our subdivision? So the bill is not that high?
Sounds like an interesting experience, for sure, but I wouldn’t call it the expected result from trying a little bit of stinky tofu, sorry that happened to you. I use it as a condiment with my rice dishes all the time and enjoy it quite a bit.
Why are the turbines still running?
I think I understand the pixel you are referring too, it may be diagonally adjacent to the click pixel.
I’m not sure I understand ‘why’ post OP suggests that should be the ‘correct’ click pixel?
Just fyi, some Lemmy clients (e.g. Thunder, probably others) show the upvotes and downvotes distinctly, so you can easily see something like ‘2 1’ which corresponds to ‘upvotes downvotes’. It’s makes it easier to see if there are downvotes versus removed upvotes.
To any visitors to this thread from the future - yes, this was at the same time that Ukraine was engaged in a defensive war with Russia; and America was kicking out any foreigners it could while ruining the global economy with import taxes.
Crazy, sad times, these were.
Why is advertising ok, but any response in opposition of it, is not?
Two years of negotiations - that’s absurd. How many games/products have been released under the MS umbrella in that same span?
Companies: I know you don’t care, but you can easily treat your employees as shareholders and deliver value to them, just the same as delivering value to customers. You release products iteratively, just treat the people helping to make it happen with some dignity and deliver to them as well.
Who tf is at the helm?
Why does Thaler want to assign copyright to a non-human so badly, when he could simply take the credit himself?
We can see he made references to the fact that Corporations are considered people (fucking citizens united) in his arguments to the court.
Could someone perhaps use the result of the failed cases in an attempt to get citizens united overturned, based on any precedent set through Thaler’s appeals (assuming they all fail)? Maybe that’s too hopeful of a take?
Ok, thank you for explaining, I thought the context was all Americans who could claim the SS benefit, hence my confusion with your comment. Cheers!
Also (sorry to double comment you) wanted to mention, I don’t think any American has yet had to deal with actually not having SS benefits (I mean generally, in that they still exist, I am not talking about exceptional cases and those where the benefits were taken away legally, if that exists).
From the Gallup article you posted:
Social Security’s future has been a topic of debate for decades. The system is expected to be able to continue to pay full benefits to recipients through 2033 if no changes are made to the system. In 2034, the system is projected to be able to pay 80% of benefits to recipients.
So it could happen in the next decade, but we expect it based on how it’s structured.
If it gets taken away from Americans by some ruling class, I’m pretty sure the reactions will be swift and meaningful. And I’m not even referring to any kind of violence, just normal old social and political and legal actions.
I know I could search and I will, but asking for anyone else in case I don’t return - got any source? Cause that would be disgusting if true and yet another cause to avoid SB
