Damn, that's not fair. Boeing were doing their best to make their planes unbuyable with their absolute trash company culture resulting in tons of safety issues. They almost had it on their own and now the trade war madness is stealing their thunder.

It's like shooting a man that is about to jump off a cliff. Just let them cook. They got this.

If I had known how bad it'd get I would've chosen a different field to work in. Sure, I can avoid it in my private life but on the job it's like I'm in some kind of hostage situation.

"Oh hi there customer! You know our product your users are accustomed to will only come as a subscription from now on and it'll also be really bad and force full screen ads. We'll push two updates per day because our unpaid interns are so agile. Bugs? Oh, no, we call those 'micro disruptions'. They're a feature but don't cost extra! How much the license costs? Well, how much do you have? Yes, it'll be that much."

It seems like their maths won't check out. They already estimate 66% of current residents to move on to other facilities (guess they don't have licensed care takers as relatives to take them all in), yet seem to calculate with saving all the costs. Ultimately they'll push more work towards the other facilities without any intention of financing additional staff which will not work in the long run.

Also parental controls are ass. Yes you can block (most) pornography but you can't tell a social media app to not blast a teenager with misinformation. It's like a playground but with glass shards everywhere. You can forbid the kid from playing there altogether but they'd feel excluded while all their friends are having fun. Somehow there doesn't seem to be an option to remove the fucking shards though.

You're winning so much that you're starting to say oh no it's too much winning, ah, please stop.

Those aren't slaves! No, no. Those are foreign atholeets.

At this point I think there's some kind of code hidden here. Maybe the localization AI is trying to tell us something.

We should explain the issue in all detail to the Microsoft support so they can guide us to the windows update documentation.

It do be like that. Many of them get repeated till they reach a critical point and everyone is sick of them. Some of them are harder to tolerate than others though. I can deal with people 'checking notes' here and there but those who use "literally" as every second word in their sentences awaken a primal rage inside of me that is yearning for rock to split skull. Luckily that trend isn't as prevalent as it used to be back in the day.
