Biden could probably win by promising to resign after Inauguration Day. I think the devils we know are making the devil we don't know look attractive.

Or it shouldn't be a fine, but criminal prosecution for the executives responsible.

You're just not killing enough people. At some point the heirs decide to give it all away.

I'd have to hit 130.

I'm not sure there's even that much more of this century I want to see.

The only worse choice for CEO is Chambers. She had a valid reason to just fire his ass. If he's not willing to do what he's told to do, then he's not willing to do his job. It looks to me like the board wanted to get rid of him for reasons that had nothing to do with cancer. Why reference the cancer at all?

I have the feeling the only reason they didn't just get rid of him was because of the cancer diagnosis. Trying to be "nice". But even if the cancer was the reason for not just cutting him loose, there's no reason to bring it up.

How does the CEO not know referencing the cancer would expose them to liability? Did they not sit down with their lawyers before sitting down with him?

Now they're probably going to lose in court and be forced to pay him off.

They should fire Chambers.

Perhaps people on Lemmy just aren't learning anything.

I just had the odd experience of using a manufacturer's discount card to pick up a medication for my wife. The medication is relatively expensive and seldom covered by insurance.

According to the information on the card, if you have private insurance which covers the medication, the discount card covers the co-pay, so you pay nothing. However, if your insurance doesn't cover the medication, the discount card covers the cost, and you still pay nothing.

Our insurance didn't cover the cost, and we didn't pay anything for the medication.

I don't understand how that works.

You're also assuming she gets 8 hours of work a day at her normal rate. It's not like she's salaried.

The nice thing about Linux is, he can't buy it and fuck it up.

Way back in the olde tymes, I was having trouble with the NIC driver in my Linux install. I posted a question about it on USENET, and got a reply from the guy who wrote the drivers. He asked for some info about the card, then updated the driver to support it.

Luckily, if you try to eat a polar bear liver, the polar bear will stop you.

But don't worry, human liver is safe for polar bears to consume.

This is probably a stupid question, but if I want to add a line to a PDF telling people to direct any comments to my Lemmy account, how would I specify that?

Urban planning (lemmy.world)

This morning I was driving to my son to swap vehicles when I encountered road work on Moyamensing.

Blocking the only road that leads to his apartment.

When I got back to my office, I had to check Google maps to make sure I didn't miss anything.
