You throwing a communist party?

Would the army even exist if it weren’t for young, naive, and/or desperate folk?

Yeah, it pumps GDP numbers up. By having more people to do work.

Not by increasing GDP per capita.

It can suppress wages.

Immigrants often are expected to work for less money. After all, they usually immigrate from an economically worse country, so they don’t expect to land top tier wages.

You keep filling in minimum wage jobs with an endless supply of immigrants, then there is never a worker shortage and never any incentive to raise the bar. No company needs to compete with higher wages to attract talent. In fact, it can make things worse and cause a race to the bottom… Reducing wages on existing positions until workers quit and just filling it with less skilled workers.

Tl;dr election year in the US. It’s only going to get more intense until the actual election.

Oh man, you were born too late for the wild 90s era of experimental keyboards

Well duh. Lemmy is on the internet, and there are no women on the internet.

It was a fun game, I enjoyed it. Didn’t realize games needed to be accurate treatises on revolutionary political theory to be good.

Whatever happens before, after and in between, isn’t their problem.

OP is looking for Jim Bob’s Auto Repair & Adult Daycare

Clearly an overlooked business model

Businesses that can get by on convenience, natural visibility, and first-time clients alone don’t need to have good quality.

Businesses that are inconvenient to reach will die quickly unless they have something else (i.e. price or quality) to make up for the inconvenience.

They assume that, by driving your car to them and paying them to repair it, you are an adult who can actually figure shit out for yourself.

Some people would get in trouble at work if they were caught browsing Lemmy. Period. Therefore every post, and the entire website, is NSFW.

You define it that broadly and it’s meaningless.

It’s not belittling anyone. It’s about having an actual line and not making NSFW into a meaningless term.

Seriously, if you define “NSFW” as anything ANYONE won’t want to be caught doing at work, all of Lemmy is NSFW. Your personal definition of “I might get embarrassed by it” is equally meaningless and, again, would result in the entire website simply labeling everything NSFW.

Oh, what if I work in a conservative workplace and don’t want to get caught browsing a liberal sub? Guess everything liberal or left leaning is NSFW!

Oh wait, I’d be embarrassed by people knowing I have relationship problems, so any relationship advice is now NSFW.

I don’t want my co-workers to think I’m a dumbass, so anything like NoStupidQuestions or ELI5 is also inherently NSFW.

You want to broaden the NSFW term to the point of being meaningless, and have everyone else moderate their posts to your ill-defined benefit. It’s so meaningless that the tag may as well not exist at that point.

That’s a you problem, not a content problem, though.

Are we obligated to mark SpongeBob SquarePants as NSFW because you’re worried co-workers are going to be judgemental if they caught you watching it at work?

No. That’s just a fully clothed character. Any workplace where that would be considered “NSFW” is the kind of place where getting caught browsing Lemmy at all is NSFW.

Not just screens. Books are just as bad. Human eyes aren’t really optimized for staring at a single fixed distance for hours at a time, every single day.

The US already has plenty of that

Isn’t that more of a renaissance thing

I’m a big fan of Destruction Manual by Lord of the Lost

Because it isn’t a Boeing contract
