Oh, name and shame for that shit.

Richard Burke at Casper College does this and doesn't even use the book. Costed over $150.

Garbage practice that should be criminal fraud.

Everyone except management.

It's beyond fucked.

I can speak firsthand that this is the case for Kroger in Illinois. Their unions fight to cap wages below living wage levels, pick some of the most expensive insurance on the market, and work with Kroger corporate to eat away your hourly rate with sliding payscales based on incredibly arbitrary criteria (overnight premium, but it only counts for 4 hours of a graveyard shift as an example that happened to me).

They are actually worse than not having a union, because then they could make more than $23 an hour in Chicago.

Oh, did I mention the union contract specifically prohibits strikes and any form of worker retaliation?

Awful company.

I like ending my sentences with and.

The burden of proof that the sensors cannot provide false positives falls on the hotel chain, not the person getting charged. There is also the question of whether the sensors can be triggered by someone else, or an adjacent room.

You fight them by filing a lawsuit for fraudulently charging you.

It is insanely disingenuous to think that manufacturing capabilities that could cheaply mass produce waterproof cameras and consumer electronics for 30+ years couldn't handle miniaturization.

On that note, I never once had water ingress issues with my S5 in a few years of ownership, and I would shower and swim with it. Just had to make sure the back was all the way on for the gasket to seal (the phone would detect it and warn you)

I don't know why people keep parroting that crap. PHONES CAN HAVE REPLACEABLE BATTERIES AND STILL BE FULLY WATERPROOF.

I had a galaxy S5, it had an SD card slot, replaceable battery, headphone jack... AND WATERPROOF.

It was also thinner than my current OnePlus with the camera bump.

12 is how you slice through a major tendon in the palm and permanently impair the use of your fingers. Nana needs to be shown how to use a knife.

Vapor deposited metal film. Expensive, but I wouldn't be surprised if they already use exactly that to handle interference from the sun. Even non-coherent light can wash the sensors out if you have enough of it.

I mean, the best understanding is still probably going to come from some Russian guy. Also, he isn't random, he is literally the guy responsible for general awareness of the fundamental workings of economics.

I want you to go read Value, Price, and Profit. It's short, like 50 pages long, and written for the masses. This book explains what money is better than any singular resource out there.

Socialism is when the profits go to the people, communism is when profits go to the government, and capitalism is when the profit goes to an individual.

Anarchy means society dictates its rules as an autonomous collective more than anything. It's doesn't mean "no rules" it means "no rulers". Nobody really explains what that means because no society really does it in the modern day. It's all theoretical what it would look like.

Economic policy and social policy aren't necessarily related in that they don't depend on each other. You can be a capitalist anarchist or a socialist Republic or a communist monarchy or whatever, one is money the other is people.

You are going to be looking at some variant of oculink, you can get riser cards that convert a PCI-e or M.2 socket into an oculink port if you don't have one available stock. Still though, if you are building it yourself why even bother? You are going to add a significant cost to the build for marginal or no benefit over buying a mini PC with an oculink port and a known compatible dock. EGPU options are not plug and play, they rarely just work and need significant tinkering and workarounds and will come with noticeable drawbacks in the best case scenario.
