Or he consider himself a crusader for a cause more than a vigilante and was carrying it to get more attention to his beliefs.

I don’t eat at McDonald’s for a variety of reasons, but I doubt very much that the company has anything to do with the guy being called in.

Not knowing anything about his death before reading the article, the headline made it sound like some odd coincidence. “Sudden death” makes it sound like something that just happened unexpectedly. Not sure why they didn’t just say “…before suicide.”

I agree that, asking with the bad things OP mentions, there are good things about a smaller site. I remember a lot of times on Reddit when I had something to say, but when I went into the thread there were thousands of comments and I’d feel like there just wasn’t a point in adding mine.

On Lemmy, when I make a comment, it’s very likely to be seen (for better or worse), and I have much more of a feeling of adding to the conversation. It’s more like joining a conversation at a party.

Isn’t this one of the LLMs that was partially trained on Reddit data? LLMs are inherently a model of a conversation or question/response based on their training data. That response looks very much like what I saw regularly on Reddit when I was there. This seems unsurprising.

I’m not going to say I’m okay with that privacy policy, so not reading the article, but the original complaint is quite a read.

At my company, is have to tell that guy he can’t wear that hat because we don’t allow people to wear political stuff. I’m not a fan of dress codes, but I’m a fan of that one.

I’m a manager at a large aerospace and defense company. We had a hybrid arrangement where most people (who didn’t have to touch hardware) could work from home a couple days a week. Most people seemed to think it was pretty reasonable. There really are benefits to in person collaboration, so some on site days seemed to make sense.

We recently moved to fully RTO, and I find it frustrating. It’s not a big deal personally - I live close and I’m older - but it pisses off a lot of the employees, who see no good reason for it. I don’t see any notable productivity increase moving from three to five days on site, it just makes my management job harder.

It’s such a beautiful area. We used to rent a houseboat on Shasta lake as a regular summer vacation. But the political signs you see there are just insane.

If you read the article, it gets from the one to the other. It’s actually worth reading.

The flip side is that people who live in states with a big land area but relatively small population have a way oversized vote compared to people who live in high population states. Why should a small number of people in the Midwest be able to outvote the majority?
