This place is full of straight up brainwashed communists. I guess the whole free and decentralized thing kind of lends itself towards that crowd, but these people are fucking insane.

Ok I’m not even from the states, but you should be able to get to Washington DC in less than a day from North Carolina. Hell, anywhere on the east coast is within 5 hours from a huge metropolitan centre

A business chose not to do business with us as an entire country because our government legislated them out of the market. It’s absolutely fucking hilarious when the same government makes idle threats towards the same business because they aren’t providing the same service they provided before the government made it clear that they would tax every post and regulate the internet by enforcing taxes on hyperlinks.

Our government has made the sharing of information a taxable manoeuvre. No fucking wonder referenced megacorp said “I’m just not gonna.”

This place is a commie echo chamber even more deranged than Reddit was. Good luck expressing any sort of dissenting opinion.

Spoken like a true Liberal.

If it weren’t for the government dicking with the internet, the social media aggregators wouldn’t have given up linking to news articles.

Now you just expect them to “play ball” or else.

What do you do for a living? For many, wearing a mask while working is a recipe for guaranteed heat exhaustion. I’m not subjecting myself to that, and if the illness is anything at all like the last time I had it, it was a goddamn cold.

Wearing a mask in a hospital full of people with compromised health and all sorts of contagions floating around is a really good idea.

Wearing a mask outdoors in the summer time on a construction site full of other able-bodied people is just fucking silly.

Id rather be sick for a week than wear a mask doing physical labour.

I just find that screwdriver to be the most pretentiously bad product. Still a product that’s half as good as something from Klein or wiha, or Milwaukee, or Greenlee, for three times the price. He put all that money into a designing a cheap but overpriced Chinese piece of junk, when there are already great screwdrivers used by professionals for years and years. Linus was so arrogant he didn’t even think that somebody’s already made a superior product with established tooling. But no, he has to reinvent the wheel and design a screwdriver nobody’s asked for

The workers would rather work for tips. You can hide a lot of income if your wage is primarily cash.

Fuck the service industry as a whole
