Is there another way of eating cake?

I have done that before. Its great before and during the cake consumption, but afterwards the regret sets in when your bloated stomach tries to digest the consequences of your actions

Anything on the web that is accessible by you is accessible by web scrapers. So to answer your question, yes.

Unless Lemmy goes down the route of Twitter (I refuse to call it by its new name, it's dumb) of blocking access unless you login. That's just how things are.

Plot twist: they're siblings

This reminded me of the time during Covid where the UK covid information for patients was stored in Excel.

Didn't turn out well for them

Why would I need 12 months for that? The graveyard is full of heads, doubt I need 12 months to find one

No, or at least not initially.

When I brought up the "Right to disconnect", I also asked about overtime. They said it won't be compensated, but they'll think about it in the future.

Regardless, unless its really well compensated, I don't plan on doing it. I'm not really pressed for money, so I value free time over money.

I'm in Europe, and work for an American company. After a few issues in production, they tried to implement an on-call requirement for employees to check the alerts during their out of work hours (5am to 10pm or something stupid like that). I just reminded them that my country has the "Right to disconnect" law, which protects us from having to work outside our required hours.

They changed it to volunteer basis. I refuse to volunteer (because my off time is my time).

Because they're so addictive, they need to be controlled through price.

I could eat a few bags of them and still want more

So you're telling me that my single puny brain is susceptible to influence and manipulation techniques which have been actively used and perfected for centuries?

Well my good sir, I don't believe you
