African cocoa plants run out of beans as global chocolate crisis deepens | Reuters News Agency
  • Ah I see. It is the chocolate industry’s turn to have an existential shortage crisis, jacking up prices never to come back down.

    MBAs sure are smart for coming up with this one to keep up the charade of perpetual growth.

  • ‘Even stronger’ than imagined: DOJ’s sweeping Apple lawsuit draws expert praise
  • Ah, I see a comment with downvotes here and I know it’s a rational one I should be paying attention to.

    Things work, but they feel entitled to forcing Apple to dedicate their resources to offering the same experience to people who don’t do business with Apple.

    Forcing a business to operate better with another competitor for no benefit of their own is a dangerous precedent to set.

  • Mozilla Drops Onerep After CEO Admits to Running People-Search Networks
  • What did I fail to understand? That Mozilla didn’t do their due diligence and went into business with this person and only dropped them after damage to their customers was already done?

    Let me be clear for your simple mind: Mozilla would have caught this if they looked into their business partners, but they failed to do that. So they lost my trust.

    And the best browser right now is Arc, which just opened up their Windows Beta to the public.

  • Mozilla Drops Onerep After CEO Admits to Running People-Search Networks
  • I’ve come to the conclusion that Lemmy is a dumpster fire filled with terminally online nerds living in their mom’s basement. It’s even worse than Reddit.

    Like Mozilla offered a paid service designed to protect your privacy that just made your privacy worse than if you did nothing at all, and these NEETs want you to think it’s okay because they fired the company after the damage was already done.

    And you’ll get mass downvotes for saying that’s a shitty thing to do.

  • Mozilla Drops Onerep After CEO Admits to Running People-Search Networks
  • Yes, and they never should have been in that position to begin with. Mozilla’s extreme lack of due diligence has lost my trust for every other service they offer. Is that so hard to understand? Or is your head so far up Mozilla’s ass that you can’t see the obvious?

  • Company is implementing mandatory, uncompensated on-call

    Context: Salaried employee living in California, working for a fully-remote software startup.

    After two years on-call is being implemented. It’s unpaid, and mandatory. With current rotations I’m looking at 10 weeks per year. On-call was not previously required, nor does it appear in my employment contract.

    I’ve done some reading and it appears that as long as there aren’t overt restrictions to movement then unpaid uncall is fine.

    However, they’re expecting 10-15 minute response times and you always being in a location with internet service.

    Additionally, these text alerts are expected to be setup on our personal devices and phone plans. The company does not contribute towards these costs, nor do they issue work phones.

    Does that constitute as overly restrictive? And if so, do I have a case?
