And you will never catch up as Bezos make 8,000,000 per hour
  • Because them saying they're "worth" that is just mental gymnastics to make themselves feel better about abusing the position of power to leech as much money from as many people as possible for themselves.

    You tell that to his delivery drivers who can't even scratch their nose while driving or that 1984-dystopia-esque automated surveillance system he puts in their vehicles flags it as "distracted driving" and punishes them.

    Oh and they don't even make enough to raise a family.

  • typical german overengineering
  • There were far simpler caseless mechanisms devised. But the G11 fired caseless ammo, rotated it 90 degrees and more importantly had a burst mode where the barrel and magazine recoiled together continually throughout the 3 round burst, only returning to battery after the 3rd round was fired. That latter one added a lot of complexity.

  • His hands aren't even particularly small. But he's an old, fat and decrepit man and he needs a very large and padded suit to give his body some sort of healthy appearance. His hands sticking out of that suit therefore look tiny.

    Seriously, look at the pictures of him golfing in his XXXL polo shirt. The guy is shaped like one of the McNuggets

  • Judge weighs whether to dismiss movie armorer’s conviction in fatal set shooting by Alec Baldwin
  • I fully agree that she should have absolutely refused to work under those conditions.

    But in an environment where some producers might not understand the importance of leaving her to do her job undisturbed and will have the mentality of constantly pressuring people like her to compromise safety under the threat of firing then and "finding someone who will", I believe that the blame is to be shared. Otherwise, these accidents will happen again.

  • Judge weighs whether to dismiss movie armorer’s conviction in fatal set shooting by Alec Baldwin
  • From what little I have heard the production kept distracting her with additional roles and responsibilities when they shouldn't have, essentially preventing her from doing her job properly. I wouldn't throw all the blame on a single person if there was an organizational problem that contributed to the accident. Otherwise the armourer's job isn't to ensure safety anymore but just to be a scapegoat every time things go wrong.

  • Before we cut our food in perfectly sized bites with utensils our ancestors used to do it by biting into large pieces of food with their front teeth. That would wear them down evenly to form a nice flat bite.

    I wouldn't be surprised if that's the skeleton of someone who died way younger than we think as well.

  • Absurdly overpowered end game thanks to highly successful RoW run

    Had an early RoW, dumped 6 upgrades into it ASAP. Ended up with tons of +3 gear drops throughout the rest of the game. The grim greataxe with +8 ring of Arcana and +7 Ring of Furor meant that all enemies were executed within 1-3 hits. I had a ton of scrolls of transmutation as well with which I gave myself almost all of the desirable abilities from other classes. The only thing that I couldn't get to make it even more overkill was a camouflage enchantment on my armor.

    Seed: FQT-ZHV-WLL although since most of this gear was a random RoW drop or the result of a lucky transmutation, your results may vary. There is also a very useful unstable spellbook early on. The imp also gives you a +4 ring which at that point you can transmute to whatever you want.

    Waffle House pays less than $3/hour for non-tipped work. Employees not allowed to file class action because of contract
  • That wouldn't be sustainable. You would whither away, and get sick and that's not even considering other basic expenses for things like clothing and personal hygiene, let alone healthcare. Sooner or later that employee will have to drop out. Anyone accepting to work like this must be desperate enough that anything past short term future isn't even considered. And yet these people exist.

    And hence the point I was trying to make that everyone seems to be missing here given the amount of downvotes. The mind-blowing fact that there are still people willing to work these jobs despite reason shows how badly we can't rely on self regulation. This level of exploitation is downright slavery.

    Well, well, well. If it isn't the invisible c... ...killer

    With a +10 ring of Arcana, stepping on grass grants you 32.5 turns of invisibility.

    Attacking with the blooming scythe spawns a ton of grass as well.

    And as the assassin, spending 9 turns while invisible provides a guaranteed one shot kill.

    Deadly combo.

    I don't know and at this point I'm afraid to ask:

    How do you use the crossbow? Every attempt I've made to use it results in it being used as a melee weapon.

    Ladies and gentlemen, The Speedy Necromancer Assassin Guerilla Huntress build

    One of the most overpowered builds I've ever encountered without using a Ring of Wealth. You spend most of your time being invisible and surprise attack enemies before retreating to the forest you created by attacking them with your Blooming bow or your wand of Regrowth, making you invisible again. No vegetation around? Just use the blindweed-infused greaves of nature to disappear.

    Seed: VGB-RKB-RJM. Contains an early +1 ring of haste, ring of sharpshooting and a +2 greataxe later on. Plenty more high level wands as well along the way.

    Disable screen gamma adjustment Plasma 6

    I am running multiple screens from different brands. Because they are not the same, they must be set to different brightness values to look the same.

    The problem is that whenever I boot up, the Plasma brightness setting is changed, or Night Light kicks in, Plasma sets all my screens to the same value. This results in one screen being too bright and the other too dark. Every time this happens I must change the value back manually in my screen's built-in menu, which is annoying.

    In the Gamma settings panel there appears to be an upcoming feature where different screens can be set to different values but it is grayed out for the moment (running Plasma 6.0.4 on Tumbleweed).

    How do I disable this feature while I'm waiting for the ability to set individual brightness values to individual screens to come around?

    Anyone else experiencing weird bugs lately on their Pixel 7?

    I have had a three strange bugs and glitches happen to me on my GrapheneOS Pixel 7 today. First my e-mail account (FairEmail) stopped working properly and required a device reboot to fix. Then later in the day my home WIFI accounts set themselves to 'disabled' without my input, something that never happened before. And just now my cameras wouldn't work in both of the camera apps I am running and I had to reboot once again to fix it. This is very weird because I've never had problems like that before and now I've gotten 3 in the same day.

    I'm hoping that it's not a hardware issue. I've had this phone for only 1 year. Anyone else started experiencing strange issues like this recently?
