  1. There are hundreds of thousands of workers that do very little unless management holds their hand.
  2. @1034004 The twerp has no brains based on how he went about this reporting. He is smart enough to recognize something as potentially "sensitive" and then stupid enough to amplify the specific details. There is a better way to handle and report on the risk.
  3. Let's clarify the first part. The Thomson family, through their holding company The Woodbridge Company, has majority control over Thomson Reuters' voting shares. Thomson Reuters is a company that owns other companies, not limited to: Reuters News Thomson Reuters Special Services (TRSS) Money to "News" and "TRSS" flows into the Thomson Reuters company. The Thomson family gets the largest cut. What I've witnessed is the left turning on Musk, stating they would target Musk, and execution by the left to target Musk. Musk has been more or less himself throughout, yet the reaction to him has changed. Reuters is more neutral than many, yet I've repeatedly shared examples of left propaganda on Reuters news. And Reuters News admits to previous examples of what is now implied. Not likely but not a stretch.
  4. What did you like? I liked the step out points against Lee. I though Lee did good enough to be grounded, yet Ono initiated all the action and deserved the points. I didn't like but did agree with the calls. What did I not like? The Iowa boos against Ono for "stalling." Bitter and inhospitable. This wasn't PSU. This was Japan!
  5. I am not saying it absolutely occurred here. I am saying it has happened to this company before. And it happens elsewhere. Is it possible? yes! Should it be dismissed out of hand? no!
  6. What? Semantics? The company in question has admitted to this behavior in the past. And what is confusing about shared ownership?
  7. merkle to back…
  8. If you have a merkle, use it! He did look exhausted.
  9. I now believe in subsidized health care. Free pscychogonagin for trollish sock puppets.
  10. What is the reasoning against the idea? Some form of "rich guys buying visas feels unfair." Have they considered the second and third order impact? Besides helping our locals in need, this could pay for the global compassion they’re pushing.
  11. Lee did a good job fending off the leg attack once in period two... but... I wonder why Ono didn't attack more at the end of the second period. Lee looked exhausted and his positioning loosened. Ono held his positions and appeared to have plenty in the tank. Was this a sign of respect? An American likely rushes into trouble. Ono had the mental disciple to hold position and minimize unnecessary risk. There is something to be learned about calculated restraint there.
  12. Guess which news agency the British government secretly funded through the BBC, hiding payments as subscription fees? Reuters! It’s a division of Thomson Reuters, not separate, reporting to the same parent company as its other units, pooling funds and resources. Could the U.S. government pay Amazon Web Services (AWS) and influence Amazon Retail, or fund Retail and sway AWS? Yes! Cash to one division boosts the whole company, like I’ve seen with two-way influence at my own workplace. Has the U.S. done covert media funding? Yes! Operation Mockingbird had the CIA planting stories in U.S. newsrooms. Stuff can hide in plain site for years like Air America... some of this gets leaked years later...
  13. Grateful that this event was put on. Lee recognized he needed to to do something different, and he went as hard as he could in a couple movements. The bigger, technically sound, wrestler won tonight.
  14. Was he having THIS much trouble before butting heads over free speech and supporting Trump? Trouble? Yes. THIS much trouble? No.
  15. What about minimal government, free markets, and personal freedom is communism?
  16. Tired of hype merchants? yes!
  17. Weak reply. We do not have a dictator in charge.
  18. Every company has violations just like every human. If it’s good to address those, great! I question the character of those doing the targeting.
  19. I don’t know how many they will sell, but I did think it was genius when I heard it.
  20. yea it’s a non starter to add spending for me… not listening to what the people want… but it is what was known before…
  21. Wild! Trump’s team pushed hard to release files... fired people, hired their own... then they delete the the files? The simplest answer is that there are still people in the FBI that do not want to incriminate certain people. They either have a fat paycheck or want to prevent the noose.
  22. This is normal. It sucks. I've had to layoff people that I would not have done, without input into who I'd rather layoff for performance instead. It is unreasonable if the lacks email access. Does he carry a satellite device? What exactly did his email say? Did his email have a firm cutoff?
  23. I don't follow all of the Musk investigations. But I did notice that the investigations went up after he poked the bear. And Biden's words “I think that Elon Musk’s cooperation and/or technical relationships with other countries is worthy of being looked at,” Biden said. “Whether he is doing anything inappropriate, I’m not suggesting that. I’m suggesting they’re worth being looked at.” And I notice people focused on smearing his character without a drip of credit for targeting wasteful spending.
