For me, the answer is dispiriting: Photoshop and Illustrator. There is no other way to have a standard Linux distro and Photoshop on the same workstation without some far out hacks…

I used to think the same. Good article here with a bit more detail! https://www.peoplespolicyproject.org/2020/03/23/how-to-think...

Why do some societies have the problem and others do not?

Capitalism !== markets. Markets are much older than capitalism and will be around long after capitalism has come and went. Capitalism is merely a mode of production based on exploi…

Bless this comment. I think this is a succinct representation of the struggles we are facing as a society.

Right 10% would be overkill. I don’t think we should be aiming to sacrifice our livelihoods to be concrete block stacking addicted energy horarders, but I’m not entirely against th…

Thanks for sharing. This is helpful info. If a tower crane did not need to be transported, how much would the design change? I’m guessing not much, but curious. I was imagining the…

That’s not right. Aspergers is not associated with “not feeling fear.” If you’re just assuming this from your experiences with these individuals, you’re just assuming this , and mi…

You read it here. It's hard to see how this is the future without experiencing it in some way personally. Facebook Groups connected me with fans of a particular kind of fringe art …

Never seen somebody younger than me working at a Dollar General. My point is that something is definitely wrong. But to blame this on the workers is immoral, heartless, definitely …

This was not an act of nature. It was the manager cutting the costs. 80 degrees is not a normal accepted indoor temperature. This is unusual punishment given the context and norms.…

Very upsetting. Also, the delivery and form was so simplified. I feel like what we were taught in school had one of 2 forms: 1) Bite size good/bad characterizations of involved nua…

These places are just awful. I went in one last summer and the girls working there were drenched in sweat. The management refused to set the thermostat below 80 degrees! And the ca…
