You are invited to a meeting Agent X/Whistleblower Coffee chat.

Going? Yes/No/Maybe

Might have to start importing all my tech from the EU at this rate.

Once independent contractors are able to unionize I believe union membership will go way up. I've read of Google having "red-badge" contractors not even being given earthquake safety gear in safety exercises, just to keep them as separate from the company as possible.

The economy is booming, and yet many Americans are still gasping for air financially. They simply don’t have the breathing room to plan beyond their present needs

I have a feeling that the economic news is maybe put of touch with what people are actually dealing with.

At least if you're told it's not doing well you can see space for improvement. But if it's sold as doing well and you're not then you get...well this.

I imagine some level of worker protection may be required to see success in this.

Seems like depending on what you bring to light you're at best let go into a brutal job market. Or if you piss off Boeing you just die.

Big regrets not washing those blueberries before eating them now.

If our anti-trust had teeth this would be the case. At the current rate Teksavy can only survive on principaled users sadly.

Gotta get those single issue voters somehow

It's the insane man's wine and steak

This is probably the most relevant voice I've seen on Lemmy that wasn't in tech.

Although it seems like building it under the highway was not a great move. Was there some benefit like the earth being dug up anyways when they decided to put it there?

Worst misclick of your life hitting this thing.

Now I'm left hoping for a silent button upgrade 👀

I mean Telegram has been blocked in Russia before and it didn't stop their operations for too long. At best now some engineer at telegram has one more ticket and things will be back to normal.

Can't wait to see someone say.

Oh I don't need a condom I ate some unwashed raspberries earlier

There is but it won't be released till after the election according to Freeland.

Edit: thanks to ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca for pointing out editorialization concerns I've added a relevant quote below from the article.

Senior cabinet ministers wouldn't say Tuesday if the government is prepared to release the names of parliamentarians who are alleged to have conspired with foreign governments and to have consciously shared sensitive information with their agents — conduct that one expert says could amount to treason. There may still be police investigations into these allegations, the ministers said, and details could eventually be released as part of that process. But that raises the question of whether the voting public will know who's alleged to have engaged in such conduct before the next federal election, which is expected sometime in 2025.

I like the closing gap between the lowest earners. I just wish it wasn't due to the middle class being dragged down.

Found it linked in an article within the article here toward the bottom.

Thermal imaging is an interesting selling point, who needs that?

After Cory Doctorow got scammed it became much clearer that providers need to do better.

Having customer support going to the lowest bidder makes these situations much more common. And since there are no repercussions there is no reason to make things better sadly.

This will be devastating to all those horse girls too 😟
