I wish the EU would just stop getting their grubby hands ibto everything they possibly can

Gotta love the reddit-tier “downvote anyone who disagrees” mindset here. It’s like I never even left reddit!

The world isn’t so black and white. Technology can (and usually does) have the potential to both improve lives, and increase control. For example, computers have inarguably had massive benefits and been a part of nearly every major innovation for decades, but also gave governments and corporations an unprecedented ability to keep, share, and access data about people.

“I’m making 50k”. Great, now I have to guess - dollars? Monthly? Yearly? If yearly then what’s the monthly paycheck? Net? Gross?

Unless you just stepped of your alien spaceship and have never interacted with societal conventions before, these are all fairly consistent. If you’re in a country, you’re almost certainly getting paid in the local currency. Annual pay is typically listed for various reasons though tradition is a big one, your pay period will also be specified whether monthly, weekly, two weeks, or whatever, and it’s listed before taxes since the business has no clue what your personal income tax looks like.

And on the contrary, what makes sense about monthly that doesn’t about yearly? I don’t get paid monthly, and years to 2 week pay periods is far easier than months to 2 week pay periods.

OK, how many people are getting jobs paid in foreign currency?

Foreign to where they work.

That one guy who has to buy a whole second septillion because he has 3 devices over 😠

Because you’re fucking applying to jobs that exist within some defined country.

My man’s just likes devices

It feels like they’re some of the most obnoxious people on the planet because somehow whenever there’s one of them saying dumb shit, there’s like 5 more to jerk them off.
