They mean that the workers are probably making less than Minimum Wage. There are exceptions to minimum wage for agricultural work. Minimum wage would have been an improvement.

It will be in the options somewhere. It says you can opt out, you can figure it out.

Because it's not the "invasion of privacy" kind of tracking, and you can opt out of it anyway.

Imagine that job though. It is your job to be a scapegoat for traffic collisions.

This wasn't how I expected GenAI was going to start killing people but it will do the trick.

I feel like he was hoping someone would associate what he was doing with the Democrats, like he hoped someone would catch the alias but not know who was behind it.

I think a big part of why it's funny is because the original was so very NOT funny. It was such an intensely dark shift in tone, a deliberately serious dramatic beat, in a comic that was all silly fun, completely unexpected and out of place.

If it was just a miscarriage joke then yeah it'd just be purely fucked up, and pretty quickly forgotten. It's the meta context that turns the whole thing into more of a joke than any single comic could tell.

You're only proving that you don't actually have any idea what's going on here, acting like we're resting on our laurels because there was a big protest. Nobody here is thinking "Yeah we made ourselves heard, job's done!" Nobody here says the fight is won, but you're out here acting like nothing is being done at all.

What may have been the largest organized protests in American history were just a few days back, the president has record-breakingly low approval, even his own party's talking heads are turning against him. If you're not going to be satisfied by anything short of armed uprising then at least be brave enough to say as much, but pretending that Americans just don't see anything wrong and aren't doing anything is an act of wilful and blatant ignorance.

Meanwhile their vote or lack thereof directly empowered someone who actively encourages it, they just don't want to take responsibility for that part.

Even if you had heard of it, an overwatch copycat is hardly a premise to grip the attention of the masses.

The Pentagon has contingency plans for every situation they can imagine. This is not news so much as it's just another example of Hesgeth being a fucking moron. They have plans to invade everywhere, they have contingency plans to counterattack against a Canadian invasion for fuck sake. They have these plans because if a situation arises, you don't have the time to be cooking up new plans. Hesgeth acting like this is actually a plan that's being considered it just another example of why he's not fit to manage a godamn Mcdonalds, much less anything important.
