with the “low performance” brush and negatively impact their ability to get new jobs is a cunt’s act.
pretty rare these days for companies to inquire beyond ‘did they work for you’ in many cases it isn’t legal to do anything other than verification of employment.
what if they were? now they know they need to perform. a LOT of millenials/gen z needs a kick in the ass.

Fun with words.
As a nonsense phrase of shady provenance makes the rounds, Elsevier defends its use
The origin of the phrase? The phrase was so strange it would have stood out even to a non-scientist. Yet “vegetative electron microscopy” had already made it past reviewers and editors at several j…

Meta Has Spent Over $100 Billion On VR - Aftermath
One hundred billion American dollars. Keep that in mind as you watch this. https://www.instagram.com/p/DGG2sXLsEPi That video was made in 2025. UPDATE 7:20pm, Feb 17: Meta have taken the video down.
Above headline isn’t news but the video in the linked page is something else. Kept making me think of Team America.

And I thought Star Citizen was bad…
-
I’m guessing that a lot of that 100 billion has gone on subsidizing VR headsets to try and boost numbers? I just can’t believe it is all development costs even with the hardware side.

They would have been better off just buying Second Life and adding VR support

Or pornhub. It would have been a bigger hit than AI!

Porn always leads the way in technological advancement.

Y’all might stay in better hotels than I usually do and have wirelessly charged phones but:
I bought a good headset for work last year that came with a quality feeling, 6’ long USB cable and, as happy as I’ve been with the headphones, I’ve packed the cable now on two trips involving stays at many hotels and I’ve been so happy to have it. I don’t know what they cost if you buy just the cable but it’s a highly recommended purchase. No more dangling phones from wall points that are too high off the floor and most of the time I can still lie on a bed or sit in a chair and use my phone while it’s charging.
-
Chords? OK boomer.
The hotels I have been to recently have a charging block thing in the rooms with USB 2/3 connections, a power outlet and wireless charging. It’s on the night stand next to the bed. My ear buds can go anywhere in the room, even the bathroom so I can keep talking while I go have a shit.

BTW you can probably get whatever length USB chord you want on Ali. They sell them on Amazon here

But keep in mind that the longer the cable, the lower the data transfer speeds.

That sounds like something you used maths to figure out. GTFO!

Android USB data transfer is such a pain in the arse I always use bluetooth or transfer via the internet.

I feel my cable expertise is going to waste here.
