They can argue against the employer’s claim and prove they weren’t fired for cause. My former employer lied to unemployment and and it worked in my favor. Either way they can appeal a decision and should start consulting attorneys immediately.

Yeah, true in many cases. The post was about Cameron so that’s the only director I’m addressing at the moment but the industry is definitely filled with people using their “art” to excuse their bad and often abusive behavior like you said. There’s a lot of very concentrated power to abuse.

Cameron has an awful reputation for how he treats people on set and you really see it start to come out here pretty quickly . He’s hostile and dismissive the moment any criticism is mentioned whether it be from Roland Emerich when he tells the reporter to “move on”, proving the “overbearing” criticism right, or that anyone who criticizes his transfers as needing to “move out of mom’s basement”. His films are often awe-inspring but he’s been called “a nightmare to work with” and “autocratic” on set.

Try replacing the batteries. That’s often the reason for this type of thing.

“attracting” companies like Intel that are on the BDS boycott list is not really a good look for Linux.

It’s all worth it if it means having this image grace the Fediverse.

This is what it redirects to if it seems safer: https://šime.eu/3

If you are posting on walled-garden big tech site like Reddit, Instagram, Twitter / X, the site and therefore the company certainly owns your content and all the metadata attributed to it. You’re the product. This is why most of us are here on the Fediverse where things are different. Maybe if it’s your personal photo you took than you can make a copyright claim to some degree and download your data tediously but once it’s on their network it’s generally theirs to do as they please, whether that be sell to Google or any other advertiser or use on in-house advertising. Often without proper informed consent and not always legally. It’s definitely a scam, I agree. Hopefully this exposes it more and brings more people to places on the Fediverse where there’s no owner/seller/buyer of your data or anything else you contributed.

So it’s user generated content that is a product for Reddit to sell, like most big tech companies do, as I said.

Welcome!

It’s content that Reddit users generated which apparently is theirs to sell.

I’m from Boston and this is painfully accurate. Especially the last line. My last job was a delivery job and me and the other person were constantly questioning if it was one lane or two.

Thanks. They’ve referred to themselves as a fork of Signal but maybe a bit of an oversimplification

I have Session. Given that it’s a fork of Signal and more anonymous I’m inclined to trust it from a privacy standpoint but can’t say I have the knowledge to really critique it’s tech. People aren’t really on there yet, at least nobody I know, so I don’t have much use for it yet but I would if it catches on a bit more at some point.

“Betrayed by this town / Let’s burn it all down “ might be the most relevant chorus of today’s music. It’ll be stuck in my head all night and would fit right in at most protests

The concern is that suddenly Meta will make up the biggest part of the Fediverse and exert too much power as a company, which they don’t have a good record for, over the non-corporate Fediverse. Historically this would allow them to “embrace, extend, extinguish” the Fediverse that many love and have spent years building.
