Give people the basic dignity of existence, even when you’re pissed at them.

Wow things sure changed about Android roms! I still remember how difficult it was to try to simply install a rom through Knox

That seals the deal for me on rooting my pixel. I’ve been hesitant about rooting ever since I bricked an extra galaxy s3 and nearly bricked my (main device) Verizon galaxy s5

I’m excited to see them succeed. I love it when stuff is designed with function over form, and made practically. I’m a tall person, this is the only small electric vehicle I feel I could actually fit in

You mean the table that the US government built by gutting US manufacturing in the 90s?

Tech companies hate disabled people generally, considering one of the largest tech unions in the US had a rally about disability rights earlier today

You mean the people the maintain the biggest logistics network in the world? Not sure, but it sure as fuck is relevant to news about the company that hosts 25% of the internet.

Got it. You believe that the only thing relevant to technology is the things being made, but the people that make those things aren’t relevant. Let’s see how much tech news will come from those companies when the workers stop working.

Labor is inseparable from it’s fruits.

AWS hosts 25% of the internet. It doesn’t matter if you think it’s not tech related, the company is in tech and unions within tech is a rapidly growing movement. Next you’re going to say that workers protesting at Microsoft isn’t tech related.

Lawfare will not stop us.

So he’s destroying the WordPress empire over higher profits? He should ask unity how that went

What started all of this? I was hoping for some background in the article

If only USB-IF would do their fucking job and create actual standardized names with standard features instead of shit like USB 3.2 Gen 2x2

The same way you organize anything. Start by talking to a couple trusted coworkers to form an organizing committee. All the members of the OC need to talk to coworkers, handle workplace drama, agitate for better conditions, educate people about unions, maintain systematic campaign tracking, and fight against the boss during their union busting campaign. When I worked remotely, it was as simple as sending a dm like this:

Hey, would you be able to talk over break? Some coworkers and I were discussing some issues and I wanted to hear your thoughts.

Unions are legal in the US. The labor movement is currently seeing a huge swell in new bargaining units across most unions

Unions generally don’t write or repeal laws, but a union contract can negotiate overtime pay where there isn’t any.

Tbh the idea of exploiting 100s of people for my personal gain makes me want to set the gun down and put on a trigger lock.

Still a drop in the bucket, but these are fine numbers I can get behind

And what was the outcome of this IP theft? A video mocking a multi billion dollar corporation? They took down the specific product called out, but they still make extremely similar dslr bags to peak Design and they’re definitely still copying other companies designs. This is my point. IP laws only benefit the billionaire class and fuck over everyone else.

You’re saying that like it isn’t already rampant. IP laws are a textbook example of classist disenfranchisement. It’s a rule for which the capitalists are protected and not bound by, but which workers are bound by and do not receive those protections.
