Hello Jazzy, it's nice to see you here. Hopefully your GNOME issue gets sorted quickly!

The articles themselves are fine. I just take issue with the editorialized and biased headlines. It’s a bias I agree with though so I don’t exactly have a list of examples.

The only way we're going to change it is with unions. I work in tech. There are no unions in tech. It just simply does not happen much. I tried to unionize my workplace and was met with such severe apathy I only got 8 out of 50 people on board.

sweats in 18 PTO days per year for sick or otherwise

I hate how nuance goes out the window in these discussions sometimes. I'd rate Biden's actions on the rail strike as "lukewarm". Think about it from a moderate perspective. It makes sense to avoid a rail shutdown, because that would cause a lot of harm to a lot of people, working class and otherwise. Biden wants to make sure the economy keeps moving so people can keep making money. This is his best shot at "harm reduction", and he did more than was expected of him. That's the point. I can't imagine having to be in that position to try and make these decisions to make everyone happy. And, for what it's worth, 4-7 paid sick days (dependent on the employer) is pretty standard for most jobs in the US. I'd say that while this was pretty lukewarm, it's still overall a good thing and could lay the rails so to speak for future improvements as well.

Lemmy is showing another year old post, but I actually met the person who drafted the letter at a bar. In a year or so we’re gonna hear about the results of their lawsuit. They were very fun to talk to and they mentioned being harassed by musk fans obsessively to the point of having to move multiple times.

How so? It works help to have that context

I think if someone is that unable to think critically, my comments on Lemmy are not going to have much impact. You don't need to throw a thesaurus at me either, friend. I assume everyone I talk to on here is at least as smart as me or smarter, no need to prove anything. :-)

They are not completely within their power to pack the court, sadly. They would have done so already if this were the case. They need 60 in the senate as well as a majority in the house and the presidency. Then they could.
