These Americans! No wonder obesity is rampant among them.

IKEA is not bad but I actually prefer (whitelabel) Tuya as long as those run on AA(A).

They might even be cheaper outside the US right now. Ironically thanks to their tariffs.

The post in the screenshot just screams incompetent boomer at me.

Yes

No HA*, no Zigbee, no containerized service landscape but the routers run OpenWRT. Hmm, Okay.

*other OSS contenders are fine.

For real! HA* & Zigbee or I seriously doubt the credibility of any „I work in IT“-claim.

*one of OSS contenders is fine.

Would a simple spreadsheet not work for this?

They want to live in that flat without contributing anything (rent, chores, etc).

Usually that works differently: Hiring managers may be required (by law or upper management) to advertise a job publicly but make sure „their“ candidate, which may also be external, gets the job.

However this does not fit ops scenario as they would neither need nor want to advertise twice.

When you reach a certain above rate (AT-außertariflich) pay level the contracts are a bit different. Your income is calculated by year and the contract states 40h work hours as standard and overtime already being passed for.

By law that (free) overtime is capped at 8h/week, so the work week is often in the 48h/week ball park. Any overtime above the 48 hours needs to be paid out or added to PTO.

In reality many employers consider 60+ hours / week as reasonable work schedule and won’t pay the 20+ extra hours since -according to contract- these hours have already been paid for.

Sometimes these are even billable hours, so your company earns good money from your work while they are lowering your hourly wage quite significantly.

People usually don’t ask for pay or return of that stolen life time. I know of this happening in rate-paid jobs as well, but I don’t know how wide spread it is.

And now comes Fotzenfritz trying to squeeze another million or two out of the poorest for his billionaire friends that are committing tax fraud by hundreds of millions yearly (on top of using mind-boggling loop holes to legally avoid hundreds of millions in due taxes).

Anyone who believes this shit should be forced to watch this: Wer liegt hier wem auf der Tasche? until they understand who is stealing our tax money.

Maybe that job does not exist and the job listings are just there to make the company appear thriving and growing.

Good for them & very commendable. Having said that, the situations aren’t comparable, not even close.

I can guarantee you that there will be a much stronger reaction by the German team in case of civil war breaking out in Germany. There have been many statements against the new rise of Nazis by multiple teams in Germany.

What we are looking for is a statement against human rights violations in another country, especially the host. Since the next hosts are the Fascist States of America and Saudi Arabia there will be plenty of opportunity.

It’s still the most powerful statement by a football team that I am aware of, so there is that.

I wouldn’t mind something more powerful, like the abolishment of FIFA or straight up found an alternative organization.

Until that is happening I’m not gonna watch the World Cup, not buy merch and I’m not even going to wear the merch that I already own.

I might use my fixed vuvuzela to mess with people that are watching.

At least 30 years.

Yep, that bluesky post gets an F on text interpretation.

It boils down to property tax as a means of preventing land accumulation and tax revenue generation.

I don’t see how that would have worked even when it was invented.

Right now you can see how the rich own all the land and have no need to use or sell it. This way they create a shortage and can charge a higher price for the land they use or sell. IMO the only way to break this up to stop charging property tax at all - because all land ownership goes back to the state. If someone wants to use land they rent it from the state. If they do not use or misuse rented land the land goes to a different renter (or to the state).
