Zelenskyy thanks US after House passes aid bill
He doesn't need to thank us, he deserves our thanks for fighting against fascism. Some of the best money the US has ever spent. Now, redirect all money from Israel to Ukraine.

If they're firing people for this then the way they judge employee productivity is incorrect. What I want to know is what did these employees even do day to day? Sounds like a whole bunch of bullshit job positions to me. Wells Fargo is a shit leech corporation, drain on society, middle-man hell.

Germany has too many solar panels, and it's pushed energy prices into negative territory
Fuck that title. No such thing as too many solar panels. The only thing that is bad is how the energy is used or if it's wasted. Free energy should mean algae production which would mean carbon negativity. Negative energy price should mean negative carbon emissions, get on it.

Russia forces Ukrainians in occupied territories to take its passports – and fight in its army
This is actually what the Nazis did during WW2. Russia is a fascist dictatorship.

Linux May Be the Best Way to Avoid the AI Nightmare
People keep pointing the finger at AI, but miss the fact that the problem is corporate greed. AI has the possibility to help us solve problems, corporate greed will gate keep the solutions and cause us suffering.

Double-swiping the rewards card led to free gas for months — and a felony theft charge
If you're poor and you exploit a loophole you receive a felony theft charge. If you're rich enough you receive no repercussions and possibly a bonus.

These 112 House Republicans voted against Ukraine aid
The fact that the only Nays were Republicans speaks volumes. The Republican party has been compromised by Russia, it's the only explanation that makes sense.

President Biden announces a series of tariffs on green energy products from China.
That's not how you ensure America leads the world in them. That's how you ensure corps feel safe not doing shit to innovate anymore. This is just another form of a bailout.

Sen. Bernie Sanders: "No more money to Netanyahu's war machine to kill Palestinian children"
I'll never forget what the Democratic party did to Sanders. Hillary gave us Trump.

Nearly all major car companies are sabotaging EV transition, and Japan is worst, study finds
This shit actually hurts my soul. This is the type of shit as to why we might not make it. We have the technology to mitigate climate change yet we don't because those in power don't want to see their power decrease. It's a serious reason why we might not make it. How do we even begin to take direct action? I really have no clue, this entire planet, life as we know it, is entirely fucked if we don't do something soon. The US government gave billions to implement charging infrastructure and the corps did jack SHIT with it, the government has become the corps fuck pig, bent over dishing out money while getting fucked.

TIL: A man rejected for police job due to scoring too high on intelligence test.
New London police interviewed only candidates who scored 20 to 27, on the theory that those who scored too high could get bored with police work and leave soon after undergoing costly training
Yea sure, because they could get "bored". What you really mean is because they could start asking questions and potentially start changing the way things are typically done.

Aldi plans to open 800 new locations in the US as Americans feel pinch of high food prices
Aldi is great. Walmart has been robbing small towns in America without competition for long enough. I hope more Americans shop at Aldi and save more money while getting healthier food at a fair price.

Star Citizen Pushes Through the $700 Million Raised Mark and No, There Still Isn’t a Release Date
It's really simple. They realized they could make more money by never releasing it. That realization has made them more money than the vast majority of game studios. It's a glorified ship showcase simulator, that's about it, not really a game. If they set a release date they'd reduce the amount of money they make, why would they do that?

Stack Overflow bans users en masse for rebelling against OpenAI partnership — users banned for deleting answers to prevent them being used to train ChatGPT
The enshittification is very real and is spreading constantly. Companies will leech more from their employees and users until things start to break down. Acceleration is the only way.

Happy 10 million! According to FediDB, we have hit 10 million users across the Fediverse!
For anyone who needs a reminder: user account ≠ human individual user. There are no bot/captcha protections nor IP restrictions on Lemmy. I'd say we have less than 1 million actual human individual users.

U.S. put a hold on an ammunition shipment to Israel
Great, now stop all money and weapons to Israel entirely. Every day Biden doesn't do this we get closer to a criminal orange man as president.

It could soon be illegal to publicly wear a mask for health reasons in NC
Banning masks is authoritarian fascist shit, especially masks that protect you from spreading contagious illnesses. Ridiculous, one year we're all told we need to wear masks to protect one another, next year we're told that it's illegal? Fuck off government, fuck off.

Grocery store prices are changing faster than ever before — literally. This month, Walmart became the latest retailer to announce it’s replacing the price stickers in its aisles with electronic shelf.
If it’s hot outside, we can raise the price of water and ice cream.
If people are starving after a natural disaster, we can raise the price of everything because they're desperate and have no alternatives.
