Yes, I don‘t think such protests would fall under the general protesting laws as they have nothing to do with your working conditions.

What are those? DDG, Bing, Ecosia etc. are all not really better than Google. I haven‘t tried Kagi yet, mostly because it costs money.

I mean, he provided a great app for free for years. Why should he open source it, just because he also earned cash with it? As far as I know he was also in talks with premium members so that they could get their money back but I’m not updated on that. And of course he shut it down, the app essentially became useless.

Yeah happened to me as well. Got banned for openly criticizing Chinas form of government. Winnie Pooh doesn‘t like that.

They may be a progressive force (as in a driving force in global politics / dynamics) but that does not mean it has to be positive. And it‘s not cynical if you look at the massive human rights violation, the treatment of opposition or ethical minorities in China. I do not want any of that. But if you want to trade it for a few years of your life go for it.

Do you really look at the totalitarian government in China and say „yeah, that is something I want for my country“? Then I really am sorry for you too.

As I said, delusional

Oh they very much have that desire. To think China has no ambitions to be the next world leader and to exert their power and form of government to other countries is delusional.

Are you suggesting that this justifies the killing and kidnapping of hundreds of civilians? Yes, fundamentalist Israeli settlers are a big part of the problem but this new level of terror won‘t help anybody

The rise in CEO wages is actually unbelievably ridiculous:

From 1978 to 2018, CEO compensation grew by 1,007.5% (940.3% under the options-realized measure), far outstripping S&P stock market growth (706.7%) and the wage growth of very high earners (339.2%). In contrast, wages for the typical worker grew by just 11.9%.

Now you shall perish!

Still not gonna change a damn thing. The (federal) government(s) don’t care, they are busy framing harmless protesters as potential terrorists and jailing them accordingly. Or they simply change the law again so that they do not have to be held accountable for their missed goals (see the ministry for transport).

Yeah that‘s my point as well. I play games on the lowest difficulty possible because after a day of work I do not want to be grinding during my free time. And even on easy mode it‘s sometimes just too tiresome.

The rule is probably in place so other people don‘t get triggered to contemplate suicide as well.

Well in an emergency situation it is safer to have two hands on the wheel.

Is there a c/bertstrips? That sub was a real gem.

If I learned anything from the German train company DB, it‘s not to trust time tables.

Thanks, didn‘t even think of that!
