There is nearly always a contract and the business will submit tax paperwork with your compensation to the IRS.

Under the table workers are illegal and on their own

I’m an American and I’ve always had a contract. Even in retail. Of course the contracts are all bullshit and just a waiver of my rights.

Yeah, or even just budget cuts. I am sure it’s cheaper to just lock it down.

I was at a subsidiary of a very large company and had work slack, email, and all my code on my phone, without even the thing that lets them remote wipe your phone.

It has to do with culture and willingness to put in the effort by the security organization

What does your contract say? With this back to work bullshit I made sure my contract explicitly said I was remote.

Doesn’t mean they won’t change their mind but maybe I’ll get severance instead of fired for cause of they have a back to the office push.

Sign me up!

That is IIS, all it means is you are probably talking to a windows server. Is the traffic encrypted? What port is it going to?

I read the first few sections and it’s not that interesting

They are right, I moved here and I have means to leave so it is a fair criticism. I fled Texas and my ex wife to be by family. First time I have been close to them in 15 years. But I agree. I don’t want to be in the south. I hate the heat and the politics and the fact that Poseidon keeps trying to reclaim the city. But my sister won’t leave, so for now I am helping her out.

Now all my low income brothers and sisters here? They have no fucking choice.

I’m in Nola and I don’t vote for this cunt. Be mad at the real enemy

I can’t guzzle tequila all day tho :(

Most plants and really most foods in general have some sort of effect other than calories, at least for individuals that may not have a fully complete diet.

Additionally there are more and more studies about phytochemicals, which appear to have a lot of potentially healthful properties.

Humans are hard to rest though so basically, just eat healthy. Eat a lot of plants and reduce animal products (maybe, this is a contentious recommendation) and mostly just don’t eat processed food if you can.

Even white rice and white potatoes are “healthy” in the right quantities and ratios.

Not really want you asked, but if you are curious “eating on the wild side” by Joe Robinson is a great book that talks about phytochemicals and how to pick vegetables that might be more “healthy”.

We solved this like a year ago! Though I had completely forgotten what it actually was.

I vaguely recall he got some concessions. But agree it is a travesty and still extremely under regulated.

Because they are not an unbiased source of information and they are pushing a narrative. Even if it is unintentional in this particular article.

That’s now how Biden works, at least in regards to the train strike. He prefers to hope he can convince the capitalists when there is no pressure and in secret. Somehow it seemed to actually work, though I’m pretty sure the workers didn’t get a lot of what they wanted.

They only have official veto power on the security council. Soft power though, I’m with you. All it took was thousands of dead civilians.

Why is he still in the race or why are his supporters?

For him I think it’s obvious. Narcissism and the fact that he has a lot of federal crimes in the courts that he can stop when he is elected.

His supporters are more complicated. He pretty decently still owns the GOP so even if they are getting cold feet, they don’t seem to have a plan to overthrow him. I feel like they are planning on just stonewalling for 4 more years and then try to win the next one and cut the checks to the billionaires then.

I got nothing on his base though. I haven’t understood them for 10 years now. Not sure I ever will.

🤣

The shut down came just hours after Mexico’s ruling party, Morena, wrangled the votes it needed to jam through the proposal after one member of an opposition party flipped to support it.

I have no context, nothing tells me whether or not Morena used a completely legal and normal process to change laws or if they held people at gunpoint to get the votes.
