Tankies celebrate rape
  • I'm not sure what you're pointing out. Many of the rape stories surrounding Oct 7th were proven to be fabricated. Regardless, Israel is actively murdering and raping as we speak, as well as executing children by shooting them in the head. This whiny ass bullshit about what may have happened to colonizers over a year ago sounds like whataboutism. Do better.

    Wait until they find out about chickens!
  • For sure. A good place to start is a "salsa garden." Tomatoes, onions, and jalapeños (or another pepper). Super easy, tasty, and versatile.

  • Growing garlic is more than just planting it. You have to keep trimming it so the additional cloves will form. After harvesting, you need to hang it in an airy dry place to cure for about two weeks. This allows the allicin to concentrate and the papery protective skin to form around the bulb. All this to say, you're probably better off buying garlic, as it is cheap, and growing something else.

    Windows 10 only has a year of support: 12 months left to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn Linux
  • That could very well be the case. I was on a beater laptop previously that was no longer functioning with windows and I needed something for school. I remember I that I wasn't able to get the wifi card to work with Linux so I ended up getting an external card. It likely is different now and I have a proper desktop, but the experience was rough and I'm not eager to repeat it, lol.

  • I use 11 and don't see any ads and have telemetry turned off. I'm not sure where this is coming from, but I keep hearing it, and it doesn't mesh with my experience.

    I've personally thought about going back to Linux, and I still might next time I upgrade my MOBO, but the thought of all the effort it will take to get all of my hardware working again is exhausting. That was the greatest struggle before I even approached software issues. I've heard it is better these days, but I'm not an expert or a programmer, so I'm essentially relying that someone else has had my use case, solved it, and made it publicly available which is not always the case.

    Israeli army says checking unconfirmed reports Hamas leader killed.
  • Israel isn't just going to stop their genocide. There's no future for Palestinians while Israel is allowed to murder and rape unimpeded. These monsters have been shooting goddamn children in the head. They do not deserve any future.

    Aurora CO police under fire for sending recruitment team to Trump rally
  • I believe it. Aurora PD has a long history of racist behavior and absolute brutality. An ex and I called 911 over a severe car wreck in Aurora. The operator asked for our vehicle description and instructed us to pull over and wait until responders were on the scene to talk to us. When the police show up, one gets out of his vehicle, one hand on his gun, and the other flailing wildly telling us to get the fuck out of here or else. Neither my ex or I are white. I have a policy of only calling 911 for medical needs, but after that encounter, when I did, I would tell the operator I am not remaining in the area and am leaving.

    Meta fires staffers for using $25 meal credits on household goods
  • I'll give you that, but that other commenter seemed to think it wouldn't be "fair" if another employee used it, and they didn't, which is a very childish notion. Depending on severity and duration, I could even see it being a talking to. I do also see not being able to find this employee suitable for a position of trust, which they may have been in given their salary. If the employer can't trust you to self-regulate on something as simple as a meal voucher, I don't see how they could trust you at large.

    Meta fires staffers for using $25 meal credits on household goods
  • I'm just explaining how the real world works. For instance, I supervise other employees. Their hourly rate is lower than mine, however, the real cost of many of the employees I supervise far exceeds my real cost. How? Well, some have dependants and they are included on their health insurance. Beyond that, some have chosen different providers or higher option plans than I have. There are other benefits that can increase their real cost to the employer. Does that mean my employer owes me the difference in cash or other tangible rewards based on how I choose to take advantage of the benefits offered? What if I chose not to contribute to my retirement, do they owe me that match percentage, even though that's not his it's outlined? This is absurd. There are problems with capitalism and corporations in this country, but expecting people to follow simple guidelines regarding a meal voucher isn't one of them, especially for well compensated employees. Realistically, meta could probably refer this to the local police as fraud if they chose to.

  • This was for sites that didn't have a cafeteria. They offered this as a way to provide food, while on-site, if the employee would like to. This childish notion that "sOmBoDy GoT mOrE tHaN mE!" is ridiculous. This wasn't supposed to be for personal monetary gain. Employees with sites that had cafeteria are not handed cash or allowed to select household goods if they choose not to eat at the cafeteria. This isn't something that should really have to be explained to grown-ass adults making 400k a year. This is just an extreme level of entitlement and I can't believe people are making me defend a company who's products I refuse to use.

    Getting really ugly out there
  • It's a traditional cloth/wrap usually used as a head covering or scarf common in Palestine. Hell, from my understanding, many Jews in the area will wear them.
