That sounds like every job I've ever had. Working so hard everyone is making themselves sick and the moment you're not at 100% you'll be let go for underperforming. God forbid you actually ask to be paid for the overtime you worked, good luck chump. Then some other desperate soul will take your place until they're chewed out and replaced. We weren't even called employees, we were human capital. The worst part is I'd do it all over again if that meant I would have a paycheck again. At least then I'd be able to afford rent, cause if I don't find a job in a few months I lose my apartment. Apparently I'm living in the greatest part of the world.

It's been discussed in other comments that because Google is A/B testing their old maps model against a new AI model that only some people are experiencing it. It's probably only being tested in some areas.

They're very supportive when you need it because that's their job. They're being nice to you so the boss doesn't have to be. Imagine instead of an entire department dedicated to preventing you from taking your boss to court, there was no such department. The world boss actually has to treat his employees with respect, for a change. HR are not your friends, police are not your friends. Anyone who's job it is to hold you back is not your friend.

You'd have to also threaten to assassinate their inheritors from taking the estate, or just take the estate. Either way that's violence. The question then becomes is it okay to use the Master's tools to build your own house, to which my answer is no I can't. I can use the Master's tools to tear down their own houses. I may be a bit too idealistic though.

Here's my best answer:

elrik had breakfast for breakfast.

Although I have to admit that I hesitated for quite a while. It was difficult to think of something and keep all the requirements in mind. Alas, I am only human, lol.

Yeah all I see is an expensive CCTV system with high ongoing costs. Seriously it can be overpowered by a trash bag. It's entirely security theatre.

This is why you won't see real change until we stop slapping corporations with fines and start slapping executives with jail time. That is literally the only way to break the cycle.

Can't be said enough.

I've learned to call it socialized capitalism when I talk to older generations, and I'm pretty old. I find it an easier pill for them to swallow. We have to remember that the baby boomers were children in the middle of the red scare, that shit got internalized deep. It's almost like they're traumatized.

I don't disagree with your criticisms of the UN. They're not a perfect organization, and UN membership shouldn't be some standard of sovereignty. However, diplomats have always been able to talk whenever they want, the problem that the League of Nations and then the UN tried to address was all the backrooms conversations nations used to have that were part of the causes that lead up to the first world war. Having an international platform every nation needs to at least listen to is better than the alternative. Arguably, untill now the UN has succeeded, there hasn't been a WWIII.

This is a tangent of that but I thought superposition was the state. The state of being some amount of many states at once. It isn't positive and negative at the same time but some amount of positive and some amount of negative for some period of time. It's still one state that is just somewhere between a number of states.

I think you've found your answer.

Since sarcasm is difficult to express in text alone a '/s' at the end of a post is an online abbreviation to indicate the writer is unambiguously sarcastic.
