Rules and Guidelines

1. No BigotryIncluding racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

2. Be CivilArgue in good faith, attack the argument; not the person, and promote a healthy debate. That includes implying violence, threats or wishes of violence and/or death.

3. No PornThis instance is not made to host porn communities. You're free to access porn communities on other instances through your account, but be mindful of Rule 4.

4. Use the NSFW tagUse your common sense: if you wouldn't want this image to show up on your work computer, tag it as such. In comments, use the
spoiler ::: tag for NSFW images, and put a NSFW mention beside links. Do not use NSFW images as your avatar or banner. :::
5. No Ads / SpamThis instance is not there to act as your billboard. If you want to promote your personal work, at least make the effort to be a contributing member of this community. Your account purpose shouldn't be to only advertise, make it natural.

6. Bot accountIf you are the operator of a "bot" account, make sure to flag is as such in the account's settings.

7. Right to privacyDo NOT distribute the personal information of someone else without their consent (aka doxxing). Information that is public domain can be shared, provided it is in good faith.
ex: The official email of an elected official is fair, the private phone number or the real name of a non-public person is NOT.

8. Report abuseThe report function isn't labelled the disagree button. You might not agree with someone, but that doesn't mean what the person says is against the rules. Using it repeately in this fashion will lead to actions being taken against the reporter.

9. ImpersonationDon't make an account with the intent to negatively deceive or defame someone on the fediverse.
ex: Parody of a famous person is okay, submitting outrageous content as appearing like another user, mod or admin isn't.

Z danych SW Research i Runaways​ wynika, że 80 proc. Polaków nie czuje pasji do swojej pracy, a 77 proc. nie widzi sensu w wykonywanych obowiązkach. Prowadzi to do wzrostu poziomu stresu i wypalenia zawodowego, co powoduje, że na życie prywatne nie mamy już energii. Work-life balance, ważny zwłaszcza dla młodszych pokoleń, jest trudny do osiągnięcia. Dodatkowo rozwój nowych technologii i modeli pracy powoduje coraz większe zacieranie różnic między czasem wolnym a pracą.

Lately I have had the need to clear browser cookies. What I noticed is that not only will I be logged out of my account (logical) but the settings I had set in Tesseract are also reset to their default state. Logging into the server where I have my account does not give me my settings back unfortunately.

Is there a way to save all my settings? And if there is no option to do so, can we have that in Tesseract?
Ideally it would be on my own storage location. I host Tesseract on my docker server and if the settings can be saved there automatically then that would be great.

"I have spoken with my wonderful Secretary of Commerce, Howard Lutnick, and we agree that the Biden/Harris so-called 'Digital Equity Act' is totally UNCONSTITUTIONAL. No more woke handouts based on race! The Digital Equity Program is a RACIST and ILLEGAL $2.5 BILLION DOLLAR giveaway. I am ending this IMMEDIATELY, and saving Taxpayers BILLIONS OF DOLLARS!"

Many respondents said their views could shift if they saw real, meaningful action – especially from governments and big business. Some wanted proof that Australia is taking climate change seriously. Others said action would offer hope or reduce their anxiety.

Even some sceptical respondents said coordinated, global action might persuade them

This part of the research is actually quite interesting. Its the bandwagon effect, people concluding, "everyones heading that way, must be for a reason."

Its all the more reason to keep the pressure against the propaganda from the likes of Koch, Rhinehart or Palmer, et al.

You never know, the mass of action from others could convince these people, with their deep vested interests, of their own folly.

SABU PASSES AWAY by Mike Johnson @ 12:06 PM on 5/11/2025

PWInsider.com is extremely saddened to report that former ECW World Champion Sabu, one of the most vibrant and groundbreaking professional wrestlers of his era, Sabu (real name Terry Brunk) has passed away.

We are working on additional details at this time.

Sabu had just worked his final match over Wrestlemania weekend in Las Vegas, defeating Joey Janela. He appeared last weekend at the Tri-State Wrestling Alliance reunion show convention at the 2300 (ECW) Arena, which appears to have been his final public appearance.

I can and will be writing a lot more about the life and career of Sabu.

On behalf of everyone associated with PWInsider.com, I'd like to send our deepest condolences to Sabu's family, friend and fans.

"how does a Yale graduate not know the difference"

 

Knowing and knowledge is not the crisis. The crisis of understanding in the United States of America 2025 is that thinking systems are important. Reactionary thinking, mockery thinking, one-upmanship thinking is not the same as the science way of thinking. Twitter-thinking, meme thinking, isn't the same as science thinking.

“Science is more than a body of knowledge; it is a way of thinking. I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time—when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the key manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness. The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30-second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less)” ― Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark, 1995

Original Bloomberg link (paywalled).

One of China’s largest online recruitment platforms has quietly stopped providing wage data it’s compiled for at least a decade, making it more difficult to gauge the health of the world’s biggest labour market just as it comes under strain from US tariffs.

Zhaopin Ltd has yet to publish its reports on average wages companies offered to new hires in 38 key cities for the past two quarters. It’s previously released them regularly within the first month after each quarter ended.

Beijing-based Zhaopin didn’t reply to a request for comment.

The missing numbers extend a pattern in China of data providers discontinuing or pausing statistical releases. Alternative figures on employment have become especially sparse, depriving economists and investors of information about a subject that’s grown more sensitive due to soaring youth unemployment, widespread salary cuts and lay-offs.

Zhaopin’s last report, published in early October, showed a decline in salaries from a year ago in the three months ended September, in a resumption of a downward trend that started in mid-2023. The figures it provided were one of the few independent statistical sets that reflected broad-based wage changes across the country.

[...]

Such alternative data has become increasingly important in assessing China’s employment conditions in recent years. Many economists think the official measurements — including the jobless rate and income statistics — have failed to fully capture the extent of stress on the labour market from the economy’s slowdown.

China Institute for Employment Research, a think tank based in Beijing, stopped making its quarterly labour market reports and indexes publicly available since 2022. China Dissent Monitor, which documented protests including those triggered by labour disputes, suspended its work earlier this year after USAID funding was withdrawn by the Trump administration.

[...]

China’s ability to shield its labour market from the trade war is critical to the prospects of the world’s second-largest economy, which is counting on domestic consumers to offset the fallout from US tariffs of as much as 145%. Weak income growth and household expectations have been a major factor behind sluggish consumption in recent years.

While policymakers have pledged to lift wages, the immediate outlook for employment is actually changing for the worse. As many as 16 million jobs are exposed to China’s exports to the US, according to Goldman Sachs Group Inc’s estimates.

A total of eight million jobs could be lost over the next two years, based on the last time both exports and the property sector contracted in 2015 and 2016, according to Capital Economics Ltd.

[...]

In an effort to better gauge the labour market situation, Capital Economics recently constructed an index based on data including those from purchasing managers’ index surveys and Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business’s poll on firms’ labour costs.

While the index largely used to move in sync with the official jobless rate, it’s been painting a much weaker picture since mid-2024.

“Chinese policymakers will probably find ways to keep the published unemployment rate close to their ‘around 5.5%’ target for this year,” said Julian Evans-Pritchard of Capital Economics. “But this may mask broader weakness in the labour market,” he said in a Wednesday report.

Key programs from child-support services to HIV treatment also gutted, leaving global populations vulnerable

Mass terminations and billions of dollars’ worth of cuts at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) have gutted key programs – from child support services to HIV treatment abroad – and created a “real danger” that disease outbreaks will be missed, according to former workers.

Workers at the HHS, now led by RFK Jr, and in public health warned in interviews that chaotic, flawed and sweeping reductions would have broad, negative effects across the US and beyond.

While Donald Trump’s administration is cutting the HHS workforce from 82,000 to 62,000 through firings and buyouts, grant cuts by Elon Musk’s DOGE have also had a stark impact on state governments – and resulted in firings at state public health agencies.
