Backup camera is mandated by the US govt. on all new cars now, so strike #4 off your list. 5 star crash rating is how well the bumpers hold up at 3 mph.
The FDA has been on a tear to get rid of medications used for pain control, even without narcotics. The interesting thing is that most of these meds have been on the market for over 40 years and never caused a problem. Now the FDA feels that if someone can use the drug and overdose, it is a lethal drug that must be taken off the market. Of course, the FDA reasoning for pulling the meds is that it causes heart failure.
This crap has to stop if they want to stop the suffering in agony that many elderly patients and accident victims have to go through.
And they want us to carry around Narcan for OD patient?
In the US, back in 2010, it was obvious that the grid was sustaining demand (barely). Now the Grid owners that don't want to shell out infrastructure, unless the Govt. pays for it, saw the wave of rising demand coming. So, as a result, even the electric company is saying switch to gas! As a society, we have spent a fair amount more on LED bulbs, and high efficiency everything, this has helped the grid grow some margin, a nice place to be for free. The wave is the Ecar load that is coming on gradually, gotta charge them batteries!
Sure, there are a few pushing the carbon tax, another money scheme. I cracks me up when the solar panel companies call us, I tell them to look up our house on google earth, 5 prime acres of woods, old and new, you know, the ones that create oxygen from our garbage air. Their proposal it to cut down the trees and put a small sized solar farm in our back yard! This solar growth isn't people thinking about the outcome, all they are thinking about is their wallets.
The other missing part is that our Government, or any other Government could obtain an individuals files without a warrant. The internet just died, don't use your debit or credit, go to raw cash or bartering. 1 pound of beef for 100 bullets? That sounds pricey to me!
You had a team of people that worked together seamlessly and then they shared how much they make with each other. The well oiled team collapses, environment becomes hostile, production drops and eventually there is no more team and there is no more income. Sorry, saw this one for real, truly devastating how long time friends want to rip out one another's eyes.
This fellow doesn't realize that the largest job losses in the US have been because the jobs moved overseas. Sure robots are making small inroads that should not be discounted. I will say, however, that if he picks the pockets of the big 4, those jobs will go overseas as well. I know this type, the government will pay for your tuition. Then the government takes over companies, quietly becoming Venezuela, and the population is scratching for bread crumbs.
It comes out of your check directly and goes to your kids. You get to keep the rest and pay taxes on ALL OF IT! Now, how is this issue so different. The real problem is the cost of tuition, the Fed and State Govts fucked that up, now how do we fix that, give away more money?
You must be pretty secure in your job to believe H-1B isn't going to take it from you. Trust me, if a business believes they can get 90% of your job done at half the price, you will be downsized, plain and simple. It is the simple math of supply and demand. Reduce the supply, demand goes up and incomes go up. Its that simple!
HP killed the remote worker over a decade ago, or should I say the workers did. Productivity was down due to employees being lazy. Now with a throw back to the 40s, no cube walls open office. This way your co workers can spy on you and rat you out to management. The rat gets praise, and the slacker is kicked to the curb or pip'd (the slow termination process).
It all has to do with the value output of the employee, it has nothing to do with oligarch mentality. You must support sustainable growth for the stock holders... they are your boss.
I just hope I never get my hands on the turd ball that made open office spaces the new norm, the sound of jail does scare me a bit.
Companies are all about one thing, making their stock value go up. The easiest way for them to do that is to use cheaper labor, or should I say people who are willing to work for less. Of course they claim it is something they are trying to do for society.
Just like every company claiming to go green and doing so, it allows them to sell their product for more money as there are so many customers that are green conscious.Do they give a crap about the environment? Absolutely not, its about making more money.
The first reports of these attacks were in Russia, against US dignitaries. That was like two months ago so why has the media forgotten about that? Oh, that's right, that wouldn't make sense in the media created Trump is in bed with Putin stories! (Not that he is or isn't)
The possible link does not link brain diseases to the brain parasite. That being said, there is a great deal of research in the MS(Multiple Sclerosis) world that indicate that MS is spreading like a virus, ie. the same pattern of expansion like the Flu, but much slower. There is also the JC virus that 98% of people have. If you do have the JC virus and take certain MS medications, there is a very high probability that the JC virus turns toxic and literally eats your brain. This is normally fatal, and those that have been saved would be better off dead.
For the past few decades Hollywood actors can't keep their mouths shut regarding their political opinions, some I agree with some of their ideas but not others. What ticks me off though is that they have zero skin in the game, they have nothing to loose or gain by what they say, except for control over some of the populous. It just doesn't make me real happy, zero political talent on their part, but since they are well known, they get listened to by the weak minded and their drivel sinks in. I don't go to the movies for price, lousy acting, and their political view spewing. I do not pay the pigs, send them to slaughter.
Older workers should adapt with the times, not vice versa.
Older workers are experienced enough to know that not all change is for the better.
Also, it's tough to make progress if you keep throwing out all the people who learned lessons already, and then spend the next generation of staff learning all the same lessons again.
Back in the late 90's, employees right around 50 would be trained, lets say for a black belt. When they were done with training and returned to work, HR would call them in and explain to them that they are now overqualified for their current position and didn't have a position to put you in, sorry old chap, I'm sure you'll find a job elsewhere. This was the trick at Eaton. I was younger so I didn't fall into that trap.
Then there are companies that will only bring you in as a Contractor with no chance in hell of going full time.
As someone mentioned above "just make wiki page and store the old knowledge. Sorry, doesn't work that way, the teaching comes through on all levels when the ancient works with the fresh outs. Its about helping them adapt, to an extent, what is expected of them, tricks of the trade, and things like its easier to seek forgiveness than asking for approval. Some times it is just that simple, other times, it may take months to help them tweak their personality to fit in properly with the machine and figure out the life/work stuff.
I'm mid 50s grey hair and beard, along with a cane. The folks I'm working with are fresh out of College, full of ideas, but not knowing how to apply them. In the end, it is a mutual learning opportunity for the greys and the young ones, even when it comes to things outside of work. Its a little difficult to start being a mentor to them at first, the main thing being that you are not there to judge them, and yes, ICs are made of smoke since once you let the smoke out they no longer work. I know, old guy, old jokes.
Wells Fargo, for the longest time was a well respected financial institution. It was so good and profitable that it went out and bought Wachovia, headquartered in Winston-Salem NC. Walkalloveryou was a fee troll and it appears that the higher ups at Walkalloveryou took the top spots at Wells Fargo. On the day of that purchase, Wells Fargo was dooomed since they liked the Walkalloveryou approach. Now they are just beginning to pay for their mistake.
That does it! I have a crazy boxer, I am going to trade him in on two pet cows, The study also totally missed a major green house gas, you know, the waste equal to the output of Massachewshits, its called METHANE!
I guess PETA will just have to keep driving to shelters in their 1970's van, filling them up with rescue animals and route the exhaust through the window, they love that trick! If they would just throw in a few Politicians with each load, the world would be a much better place!
Lets not forget what the Dinosaurs did to the Earth, they alone brought on the ice age!
Yes, I used the internet when it first became a:thing". It was created to enable communication and the sharing of technical knowledge. If you wanted SPAM you went to the store and bought it, it didn't exist on the internet. There were no popup ads. Yes it was crude back then by today's standards, but if I searched for a specific product, I did not get the first 10 results being from their competition.
We ignored the founding rules of the internet and we got what we deserve, a nearly useless full of static and noise communication link.
It was much easier to read a document on a DOS green screen than it is now because of all the popups, biases, gimmicks, and fake products that'll make your dick 20 inches long!
Those that are concerned about a government turning against their own people, a smart gun is EXACTLY what the government wants its people to have. Upon an attack on the Government by the people, they just have a really strong transmitter to disable all civilian guns. THIS is what the Government wants, as they now know how incompetent the people feel they are!
Daddy, what did that news guy mean by saying Trump's mouth is only good as a holster for Putin's cock? I thought cocks were male chickens. Daddy, please explain it to me! Daddy can't stop laughing long enough to "explain", even if he had the spine for it. The next day little Johnny is sent home from school to change clothes, his explanation was that he asked the principal what it meant. Then the principal used little Johnny's mouth as a cock holster and sent him home.
I haven't a clue why the FCC and others might be upset!

Now I know why I didn't put my western saddle and boot company in the Bronx! And it would have made so much financial sense to put it there!
But it was started under Obama's watch, so stick the blame where it belongs, he just stole our privacy again... if there is still such a thing!

So much for innocent until proven guilty.
Since when did the media give a crap about the law they ARE the law. They destroy people for better ratings/higher advertising income!
You are off topic again, as usual.

Yep, thats a must because the toilet paper keeps getting smaller!
