The government will always find a protest to turn into a riot. Always. The cops do that, not the people. So fuck it, might as well gather when you wanna gather,

fodor@lemmy.zipto Technology@lemmy.world•Mastodon says it doesn't 'have the means' to comply with age verification lawsEnglish1·2 days agoRight, except for the part where you get verified and nobody can do that except you. Oh, and the part where your kids don’t steal a copy. Or a copy of someone else’s verification. And the part where it actually doesn’t contain references to your real identity; easy to fuck that one up, right… Hmm, that actually means the whole thing wouldn’t work.
fodor@lemmy.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have you gotten a response after asking why you weren't hired?4·3 days agoIn some countries, including the United States, potential employers are not going to tell you why they didn’t hire you because they don’t want to open themselves to potential litigation. Any information they give you could be used if you decided to sue them for discriminatory hiring practices, even if they aren’t actually doing that. The less information you have, the safer they are. And it’s not a question of whether they would lose the lawsuit, but whether they would have to pay a lawyer thousands of dollars to fight it. So any smart employer will STFU.
Also, they have no duty or moral obligation to tell you anything. If you want to know why you didn’t get hired usually you can do so by talking to a friend or acquaintance who works in the field. Show them your resume and the job posting, and they can tell you if there are obvious weak points. If there aren’t any obvious weak points, either the job listing was vacuous or there were too many applicants. Or else the application process is set up like total shit in which case you don’t want to work for that company anyway.

Right, if your life is inconvenienced, fuck it. Sigh.
