About as badly as lemmy has been coopted by tankies
Oh fuck off with your revisioning of history.
It’s literally there as it was previously. They removed it at the start to say “do the right thing” instead, but don’t be evil is there too. It was a drummed up controversy over nothing.
Which is still in the google code of conduct.
A heat gun is enough to melt through plastic, there is no need for higher temperatures. You can do it with a hairdryer.
Seeing as you can do the exact same thing with a hairdryer, it’s inventing a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist.
Ah yes, the same 20mln people who looted the country to shit afterwards, killed an uncountable amount of Poles. Good thing that you mention me “equating bad pootin with gud USSR which totally wasn’t a shithole”. Last I checked, the invasion happened in 39’ when Russia literally allied with the Nazis to partition Poland. Last I checked, Katyn happened in 1940 in the “totally not a shithole” USSR. But maybe that’s history revisionism and the soviets were the best people around, totally not an invading nation that killed, raped and looted.
Ah yes the tankie forgetting about Katyn in their assessment and countless other massacres. You heard it here folks, the war in Gaza is bloodless. So many nazis we need a denazification special military operation, huh?
Yeah, okay, you are just a tankie. Fucking bloodless invasion my ass you ignorant moron. You are insulting the history of my country and my people. I won’t be wasting any more time on you - you don’t deserve the wear on my phone screen from replying to you.
First of all, anecdotal evidence. Also survivorship bias. One - the type of person that goes to study abroad is usually wealthy, well off. Two, your family is collateral so you are guaranteed to return. Saying negative shut about the regime can get you in trouble so they’ll sing praises of it - just like in Russia.
Second, the USSR thing is complete dogshit and you can see why now in Ukraine. People hated the russians. Speaking russian in western Ukraine after it disolved could get you threatened or punched in the face. Same thing with the Baltics. Same thing with Poland.
So then your base floor floods
That’s not a basement problem, that’s a location problem. Look for houses that are higher up than other houses, the water will flow down the hill and flood the people who didn’t do that.
Yeah, and people in the 50s thought there will be flying cars in the year 2000. The tech isn’t there yet and is approaching physical limits. Even if, being scared of “I won’t need to work anymore” is silly.
So there will be a different system once there are no jobs to do and people can do whatever the fuck they want. The reality is you are thinking of something that won’t happen for the next 2 centuries at least. There might be jobs that won’t ever be automatized. Right now, a single robot was mowing a park. Somehow from this we’ve jumped to “robot is replacing mowing” - to which the logical answer is “so use robots for mowing and find a job that is still needed”. The next jump to “nobody gets jobs” is a way bigger jump than the previous one and nothing that any of us needs to worry about.
But there is still plenty of other unskilled jobs.
Then we have reached post scarcity. People won’t have to work anymore. Also, no way that’s happening. There will always be jobs to do.
Okay, so? Change what you do. Progress always does that. Window knockers lost jobs, miners lost jobs, now it is time for mowers. Which most likely won’t happen anyways since it’ll be the companies that own the robots.
Or just don’t vandalise government property which is there to make life better.
That’s the jobs that robots should be replacing people with.
Work from home makes it even better than listening to coworkers trying to chat you up when you are working. You can have “human contact” with them on optional outings with the team. A coworker isn’t a friend, it’s a colleague. They won’t stand up for you when you get treated unfairly at work, they won’t risk their job to save yours. So unless your “human contact” includes inappropriate stuff, I don’t see any benefit to it over staying home with the family you love, cuddling pets and skipping a long daily commute.
