  • The CEO is Russian. He formerly owned VK and sold it off to the Russian govt iirc.

    He was forced out. This wasn’t a voluntary thing. At least from what I had read last about it.

    Yeah unfortunately I flash my phone with new roms too often to make signal a daily driver. Every time I do so I lose all my prior chats. Haven’t used it in a few years though.

    My Reddit account was permabanned because I posted (about a guy who killed a teenager who came to his house) “You know, I’ve changed my mind. Give this guy the chair. Not as a punishment but as a mercy. If I had grandkids like that I’d want to be mercy killed too!” The grandkid I was referring to was a screenshot of his grandon’s Twitter calling him a Nazi.

    Banned for “inciting violence” or some horse shit. Appealed for 30 days straight, now every one of my appeals is instantly denied by some bot.

    Just be glad you don’t have to spend more time in that shithole.

    Redditor for 13 years I think. Same username as the one I sport on here.


  • It’s not minimum wage’s fault, it’s the government guaranteeing student loans. Tuition skyrocketed since then and has been out of control since.

    Then with so many people being told “You have to go to college so you don’t become a garbageman!” the requirements for most jobs increased as well. Manufacturing in pharma, for instance, I could take a kid out of middle school and teach him the job in an hour. Get fresh grads from college for a bachelor’s degree and they still need an hour of teaching. But now the Bachelors is required for some reason.

    Ironically, garbage man pays pretty decent for some minimal manual labor.
