Could just be Milwaukee or Cleveland. They kinda froze in the 80s.

A bunch of social media accounts with their name and address may start attacking Scientology and right-wing crazies.

College degrees demonstrate you can complete a long-term project with disparate, often competing priorities handed down from separate departments while meeting deadlines and milestones.

Yeah, but then they tried going all woke in the late 90s with the CD-RW stuff and data reassignment procedures.

Just throw hard enough to trigger fusion reaction then.

Write-offs are deductions from income, not reductions in taxes owed. They only get to deduct the taxes they would have paid if they had kept the donations.

Let’s imagine their annual income was $10,000,000. Their nominal tax rate would have them owing $2,100,000.

If they received a $100,000 in donations, that would make their income 10,100,000. But with the donations they could write off the 100 grand, reducing their tax bill by $21,000, for a total of $2,100,000.

Either way, they pay the same in taxes with or without the donations.

That’s not how tax deductions work. All the write-offs allow is for them to not count the money donated as income, so they make the same amount of money on the sale whether or not you donate.

The benefit to the company is PR or donating to a non-profit with a mission that aligns with their corporate goals. For instance, Bass Pro may ask you to donate to wildlands preservation non-profits that maintain environments in which people fish and hunt.

Heck - even Left fellas! We need unity on this issue.

You have to stay with the agency several years. The plan is to fire them before paying.

I suppose we could make Flock feeds into porn sites…

I used to follow them back in the 90s. The lead singer then left due to drug and alcohol problems.

Their most-recent lead singer, formerly of DC Talk, turned out to be a super rapey POS.

Look at quality employees like any other product.

Saying that good people are hard to find and don’t want to work anymore is like saying that since you can’t buy a 200" 8K TV for 90 bucks it means TVs don’t want to be bought anymore.

But Fluxer is one dozens of platforms that do what Discord does. If it was the only one, it would be easier to move.

But as it is people who are on 20 discord groups don’t want to deal with migrating to 20 different platforms, so they’re just staying where they are.

My, probably very bad, understanding would be something along the lines of a shared, decentralized API. Almost like a specialized internet that only serves the functions of the apps.

The problem isn’t that there are no alternatives. It’s that there’s like 50 alternatives. Centralization makes us vulnerable, but it’s also super convenient.

There’s a reason we preferred reddit and now Lemmy instead of different forums with different logins for everything.

The biggest problem with getting off Discord is fragmentation of communities.

4mph is close to the maximum speed in downtown Austin traffic.

It’s Austin. The traffic is so shitty you can’t go fast enough to get in a wreck most of the time.

I live in the area, and can confirm anecdotally that the Teslas are bad drivers and the Waymos generally are excellent.

For me it’s for traffic. There’s about 4 major routes I can take between my home and office, and with different traffic changes (wrecks, construction, conventions, etc) the difference between them can be over an hour.

It’s why I can’t use Organic Maps despite being a contributor to OSM.

That’s what happens when the boomers refuse to let go.
