Back when I was on 5mg Ritalin (this was a long time ago now) I lost probably a third of my body weight, and could frequently live for days off a pack of chips or similar. Meds and mileage varies though.
Fair enough - that makes a lot of sense.
It's not.
I'm not proposing we smash the machines - I'm proposing we share the benefit of the productivity they take over, and use it to fund people to work less rather than pouring all the benefits of the work that those machines do into the pockets of the likes of Bezos at the direct expense to workers.
Use the machines for good rather than amplifying evil.
The problem with automation is that the unions lose power. Collectivise? We'll just replace you with scab bots.
We're not set up to use automaton as we should - the basis for a transition to a decommodified society where people's needs are met and they have more leisure time. Instead, we'll just further centralise economic resources until capitalism breaks down because noone can afford food or shelter. At that point, if we don't eat the rich, we'll consolidate back into autocracy thanks to their disproportionate economic power.
ESH, but a soft one.
Deadline of 8 weeks, we're now at about 12 (50% past deadline). You paid them for the service, presumably agreeing to the deadline ahead of time. Unprofessional as all hell, but there's a lot of cowboys in wedding photography.
They're definitely in the wrong, but you might have jumped the gun a bit when it comes to engaging lawyers. It was probably always going to come to it, but I'd have at least sent my own demand letter before a lawyer's.
Are you implying that needing a cable more than 1m long is an edge case rather than the norm that should be covered by the standard?
Given the sub, ADHD meds are the more likely reason - though coffee will definitely do it to a lesser extent.
Yeah - not disagreeing, my dude - just pointing out that even the defence he's fronted is dogshit.
