How often are you reading about someone suing and then that lawsuit (which is already in court) being dropped because they got a better offer for an arbitration/settlement out of court? For me that’s a very common thing to read for bigger cases.
But I agree that forced arbitration with not even a chance to take it to court if you don’t like the offer is horrible for the consumer
Arbitration doesn’t save money. You still need lawyers.
of course - but usually it’s way faster than getting a proper court-ruling - and since lawyers are paid per hour that makes a big difference
Isn’t it often in both parties to settle things out of court? For the one that’d sue it’s usually more money at less cost and the company gets around possibly having a bad precedent set and the bad publicity to potentially losing in court.
This is probably aimed at people creating issues in the hopes of getting a settlement for something that has a slim (but Nonzero) chance to hold up in court.
It’s a company - I think this aims at people only bringing serious claims and reducing the paperwork for them - but since it’s Valve people will glorify everything they do
That guy legitimately made his hobby into his job.
There’s 0 reasons for him to still keep updating the game with as much content as he’s doing except for his own satisfaction. Truly the best developer a game can have
Sounds like something Leon Skum world say
I mean AMD heavily relies on Taiwan being independent to even be the company they are. If China takes over most people in power and all the shareholders are fucked - so in this instance it actually makes sense even from a company standpoint to do malicious compliance
Libertarianism is just the extremest form of liberalism though?
Libertarianism also means EVERYONE is free to live their lives how they want - murdering someone is the very antithesis of liberalism
Brazil first, Australia 2nd and hopefully EU third nail in the coffin for that clown’s platform
For me it’s the climate - no point in bringing a child in a world with a society that will inevitably collapse and a possible world war over land that’s still inhabitable.
Adoption maybe - but for me more children only equal more future suffering - and if not for my children because it’ll be somehow possible to shield them from the worst then for a couple of others that have to suffer in exchange when western countries pull up the drawbridge and let the global south deal with the mess they made for those countries…
Illegal immigration surging? The numbers are lower than any of the previous years? I’d consider thinking about which echo-chambers I’m part of in your place if that’s really the main issue you’re worried about right now…
I mean there are enough (closeted) homosexual right wingers with loudly voiced homophobic opinions for it not be a problem
*unless you’re working for public infrastructure, service industry, cultural industry, energy production, some parts of transportation or some parts of manufacturing where you can’t shut down a plant for a single day.
There are so many exceptions to that law I’m really wondering how much difference it would really make it supermarkets and regular shift works would also continue on the weekends - just with the standard 5 days workweek still applying and having to pay a bit bonus for working on Sundays, the same way the other jobs are also getting paid more for Sunday work
Was that the video Musk spread on his Twitter account? I knew it was bad because of Tucker in general - but this?
You mean the one pretty much every manufacturer did that just got associated with Volkswagen since they were the first to get caught?
So many humans are so incredibly bad at being content with what they have - the grass is always greener on the other side…
Also great for city climate since heated up cars are acting like a heat battery making it significantly slower for a city to cool down once the sun goes away
Ideally there would be no openly parked cars but I guess this is the next best thing
And the conservatives attack them on every front because of how much they stir up things - it’s so sad how well that propaganda works…
Yeah - it’s an art to find the perfect mix between “sounds complicated enough that they zone out”, “sounds like stuff gets done” and “not making people ask if you need help with that”.
