$20k per treatment? The capitalist spirit it strong in China.

TIL that from 1264 to 1827, anyone who received a Master of Arts degree from Oxford had to swear that they would never forgive Henry Symeonis. By 1608, no one knew who he was or what he had done in c/til@lemmy.world

I'm going to try and make "You look like you're friends with Henry Symeonis" a casual insult. Wish me luck.

Immigrants might be in camps, but at least you 3rd party/nonvoters have your sense of moral superiority! in c/politicalmemes@lemmy.world

Unfortunately yeah. In fact 3 of the largest Lemmy instances are populated by almost entirely by these third party voters. Even this thread seems to be packed with third party voters trying to defend their support for fascism with the excuse "It's not my fault I voted third party, I don't understand American politics"

Starbucks takes aim at remote work, says some employees may need to relocate to headquarters in c/news@lemmy.world

Looks like the smart ones will get a little severance:

Niccol said affected workers who choose not to relocate will be eligible for a one-time voluntary exit program with a cash payment.

On an unrelated note, if a significant portion of your job can be replaced by AI then your job can be done remotely because AI has no "office culture" (even though that's a weak bullshit reason for RTO to begin with).
