I think the post is dumb but the logic is that it reflects on other women because millions of them think it's a good love story (as per the post).

Hasbro Seeks to Sell IP “DND” and Has Had Preliminary Contact with Tencent

I don't know about this case, but private companies also have shares and can sell them out/issue them to other parties just like public companies. It's just that it doesn't happen via a stock exchange and a lot of what they do doesn't need to be publicly disclosed.

Microsoft lays off most of Activision Blizzard esports organization
This is good imo. Blizzard's been rotting from the inside for years, and for this Microsoft deal to bring real change they need to let lots of the older employees go. Let's see how it plays out.

Is it just me, or have the comments on Lemmy become extra aggressive over the past 3 months?

Yeah, that's definitely what the conflict brought to light. Not the fact that people and most nations are happy to allow or even support literal genocide and ethnic cleansing as long as it's done by people they like against people they don't like.

A billionaire wrote this letter to Google a year ago. How likely is that Google's layoffs and actions since then are at least partly because of this?
I think asking for lowered compensation is definitely shitty and he should be condemned for that.
However, can someone explain to me the vitriolic opposition to downsizing/layoffs whenever this topic comes up?
I don't see how anyone has a right be hired and work at X company. It is, after all, their company and their decision. Surely we can all agree that sometimes companies make strategic mistakes in terms of hiring and need to correct them later on. Also, circumstances could simply change, products be canceled or no longer need as much manpower etc.
What am I missing?

Alec Baldwin indicted for involuntary manslaughter in fatal gunfire on film set
Reply in thread
That's an unfair comparison.
If someone hands you a gun that by all accounts should not be able to fire a bullet that can injure or kill, in a highly controlled setting with a professional armorer, and that gun kills someone when you didn't even pull the trigger you should not go to jail.
The gun was apparently modified and had real bullets, both of which were the fault of the armor (the mod was seemingly done by someone else but the armorer should have caught it). Sure, you can speak about blame over hiring an incompetent armorer on everyone involved on the production and certification side, but that's a different matter and not what's being discussed here.

Absolutely not what they're saying. They are clearly making the point that the non-Hamas people who are having to use the hospital have no real alternatives (such as hunting down Hamas members) and shouldn't suffer the consequences of Hamas choosing to be there.

Their dog is not potentially infected. She's just a random dog owner they told about this new disease at a dog park, and she made that statement about possibly not boarding around the holidays and taking the dog with them.

While Kövesi did a bunch of good stuff and got some convictions, Romania is far, far from clean as far as corruption goes.
