They probably wanted to get rid of you. So instead of firing you, they imposed stupid rules to makes you leave on your own.

I thought all thorium based reactor were still at the research stage. I made a quick search to see if there was any in actual use but couldn't find a source. If you have one please send it I'm really interested.

If they are still at the research stage then I'll wait until one is built at scale to decide whether they are a better alternative.

Where are the thorium reactor ? We currently have none. Are we allowed to throw speculative energy source in the debate ?

I expect it's going likely to be used to train some Chinese AI model. The race to AGI is in progress. IMO: "ideas" (code included) should be freely usable by anyone, including the people I might disagree with. But I understand the fear it induces to think that an authoritarian government will get access to AGI before a democratic one. That said I'm not entirely convinced the US is a democratic government..

PS: I'm french, and my gov is soon to be controlled by fascist pigs if it's not already, so I'm not judging...

Destruction of the final product is also very easy, there are some strong chemicals capable of breaking it down in your own stomach.

To everyone reading: Be sure to not smoke weed in front of your cats, THC is toxic for them, and their body can't break it down, so it will stay in their system forever.

I know it's not a new problem, but I don't know what I can or should do..

I'm made a design that I shared for free on thingiverse under a Creative commons, attributions, non-commercial license.

I've been made aware today that two etsy sellers are using my design, they didn't ask me and they don't attribute me. I don't particularly mind that people print and sell my design (I understand the added value of it already being printed for the user) , but I feel it is unfair to buyers to not be made aware that the design is free and they could easily get it printed cheaper elsewhere (design is small, it's like half a dollar worth of plastic).

It would also have been nice to send me a share of the profit made from my design..

What can I do or should I do ?

For anyone like me outside the US wondering what the fuck is GoogleFi : It's a Virtual mobile network provider, using wifi and other provider's network.

Hope I saved you a search.

For me living in france, these prices seems outrageous. For the record I pay 13€/months and got pretty much unlimited everything (130 GiB data is more than I'll ever use in a single months on my phone)

Yes there is, you could press it and put in a cocktail !

Seriously though you can very legaly copy the bios from your own officially bought switch, copy your legaly bought cartridge, and use them to play the emulator. All of which is legal, just like you could buy spare parts and build your own switch, and copy the bios from a legaly bought one. I'm not going to pretend people do that, but it is possible to use it in a legal manner.

In my country, the week starts on monday

I'm currently living through my most stessful week of my life: About a year and a half ago, I bought a plot of land with the project of building a home there, inflation and loan rate kicked in, so I thought "alright let's wait a bit see when it stabilizes", this week I learned my plot is planned to be removed from the "buildable" area. If I don't put a building permit to the city council before this is voted my land will basically see it's value divided by 20 and I won't be able to build a house there, I put 6 years of savings into this project.. all because my gov decided that they didn't want this area to be urbanised anymore.

I have trouble sleeping and working I can't think of anything else, I also lost my appetite.

Although I agree with what everyone is saying "that it make sense to compensate workers for the commute in time and money", I'd like to nuance a little, because I think it is a bit more complicated from a moral standpoint: Imagine employer were paying for your commute and you were on the clock during it, what happen when you move to another appartment/house further from work ? Should the employer continue to pay and clock your longer commute ? It seems weird that my decision to move to another part of the city would affect my employer. The consequence would be that employer will mandate that you cannot move without their appoval or that their cost for your commute is fixed in the contract and need to be renegociable. In the end what it boils down to is not that commute should be paid for and part of the work day. What people want is better salaries and smaller hours. Then the commute doesn't matter anymore, and stays at the expense of the worker who can therefore move wherever they want.
