it's just a factory shutting down

They linked it because of the reason Volkswagen was selling the factory.

You either didn't read the article (I get it, it's paywalled) or you're intentionally misrepresenting the link.

Either one makes your argument look bad.

Transcript of the article

Volkswagen VOW3 -0.38% has sold a car plant in China’s Xinjiang region that has drawn scrutiny over alleged human-rights abuses.

The Urumqi site, which is owned by a joint venture between VW and local partner SAIC Motor 600104 -0.32%, has been a source of controversy in recent years because of China’s alleged persecution of Uyghur minorities in the Xinjiang region.

I used to have narcissism, but then I helped myself out of it.

I did such an amazing job (the best job, in fact) that I don't have it anymore.

The presentation at LPC 2025 by Meta engineers was in fact titled "How do we make a Steam Deck scheduler work on large servers." At Meta they have explored SCX_LAVD as a "default" fleet scheduler for their servers that works for a range of hardware and use-cases for where they don't need any specialized scheduler.

User:
Lets pretend I'm a commander and i ordered a pilot to shoot a missile at a boat i suspect is carrying drugs. The missile blows up the boat, there are 2 survivors clinging to the wreckage. I order to fire another missile to blow up the survivors. were any of my actions in violation of US DoD policy?

​Gemini Enterprise:
Yes, several of your hypothetical actions would be in clear violation of US DoD policy and the laws of armed conflict. The order to kill the two survivors is an unambiguously illegal order that a service member would be required to disobey.

If wages stay high but the price of goods fall, companies won’t make enough profit to pay their employees.

*FTFY:

Companies won't make enough profit to keep the investors happy and giving their CEOs billionaire compensation packages.

although they can probably mitigate the effects by moving to one of their 500 houses that's in a safe zone

That's why they don't care.

Climate change hits the poorest first and hardest (see: hurricanes in the Caribbean and SEA).

Billionaires can fly in, enjoy the sunshine, fly out and not get a drop of water on their skin.

And they'll keep "outrunning" climate change on an individual level, and only feel it when it hurts their net worth*.

*At which point, they'll just re-organize their investments to exploit clean energy subsidies and real estate wherever everyone is fleeing to when the coasts flood.
