There's also a magnitude of difference between a toxic work environment and "I go home exhausted, work frequently out of town. Work long hours for no extra money." as the original poster put it. I've done the latter and even enjoyed it but I've also stuck a toxic work environment for years past the point I should have left and ended up suffering from serious stress and depression (not sleeping, panic attacks if my phone rang out of hours, depressed on a Saturday night because I can sense Monday approaching). You can also feel that its your own fault, particularly if others seem to cope and especially if there's bullying involved.
I can't really judge this case from a short summary, but people poo-pooing the idea have just never experienced it.
... carried out by leftists (and I include fascists in that),...
Oh man, can we do that? I never knew. Can you add any group into any group or are there limits? I mean, when I talk about Mexicans can I include the Dutch or is it just political groupings? Can we mix groupings? When I say libertarians can I include the khmer rouge, smurfs and the beaker people of ancient Europe.
This is an awesome development and will really save a lot of time and effort. You sir, are a genius.
I think you need to review modern Lego. It is not as you describe. I've read that it was like that for a while, but as a father with two kids I can assure you that lego is just as creative as ever. The only difference is that in my day there was no licensed sets.
I'm with you on that. I live in the UK, so its a bit different, but there are TV companies crying out to do an expose on the evil company that has worked an employee for 24 years without a week off.
Amber Rudd: We need you to do more to combat extremists. How about you use some of those tools from CSI? And also give us back doors into your services. Google: Sure, no problem Facebook: OK Twitter: What ever you say MS: Why not
outside the meeting
Google: So you guys going to do anything? MS: haha, fuck that. Twitter: Yeh. Stupid cow, what the fuck was she talking about? Facebook: Pub?
Its not a crazy idea that there is paedophilia and that it might include some people in power . What is crazy is that its a global conspiracy led by the Vatican and driven by Satanic Worship. If you read the sites referenced in the article I can guarantee that is where they will lead you (although you probably knew that).
I can't speak for the OP, but as I just posted above - a £35 (sale price, but on sale often) Amazon Fire Tablet does everything any other tablet can do. And if it doesn't, you can side load the google app store. My wife certainly hasn't found anything missing.
If someone wants to pay 10x the price for a slightly nicer screen then good on them, but I can't see the value for a 7 inch picture.
I came to say something similar. I bought my missus a £35 Amazon Fire Tablet for Christmas. It does everything she needs. If I were to buy a tablet again I'd feel a right chump if I spent more than £35 without a very good reason (or maybe the extra £10 to remove ads from the lock screen - although on the other hand, who cares since after 10 minutes the brain just ignores them).
We haven't even side loaded the google app store yet (which isn't hard) as she's happy enough with the browser and using Calibre to load our e-books into Kindle.
She certainly can't tell the difference between that and our old £200 Nexus 7.
Maybe they can work out a good ending for it. I thought the Baroque Cycle was much better - even with the boring bits. Anathem would make an interesting movie. In fact any of his books except the one they've picked (not that it was awful, I still read it, but it was a pretty dull idea which didn't even have a good ending)

Are you joking? I'd happily do it for less than 1% of her payout.

I love how you proved his point.
I've been a slashdot troll since the 90s.
I can vouch for this. I remember seeing this guy around regularly since the 90s.
I think a much bigger problem these days is the fact that my kids music is too quiet and boring.
So when I'm doing something on the Internet, what criteria do I have to meet for it to be an "actual thing"?
If its not in an App. Or at least in an app whose name isn't some variation of snappygram.

Not if you're wearing an onion
Sorry, we're leaving. "Cast off and set sail for Norway"
I have also constructed a self driving car with a brick, some rope and three nodding birds.
Also, what the fuck has it to do with 'liberals'? Is danger now a selling point of 'not being a liberal'?
"Roll up, roll up. See the death defying conservatives as they soar through the sky on their gossamer wings"
I tried that but I just got tied up in knots
Thank you

Yeah! Its been so long, I'm glad this story came along.
I second that. Get to it Hollywood!
