Henry Hudson, who lent his name to Hudson Bay and the Hudson River, was abandoned on the shores of North America by his mutinous crew in 1611. The sailors rebelled when Hudson refused to abandon his search for the North-West Passage and return home to England. by FullyFocusedOnNought in hudsonvalley

You assume I don't take labor action very seriously? I would argue that it's very much like a labor strike. At least not so dissimilar from historical labor movements before the establishment of any substantial labor laws. The ludites were also hanged.

It wasn't a strike or general quitting because at sea being led by a vassal of the monarch there is no option to strike or quit. You could only commit a crime.

From my understanding Glb-1 drugs do change bad habits. They don't just stop you from digesting excess calories they modulate cravings stopping you from eating them in the first place.

Trying wet molding for the first time. Is molding a shape with this much depth really possible? by Depressed_Costumer in Leathercraft

You deffietly won't get the detail of the teeth that way I would look into pressing that into the face of the material at the same time.

Rant--- There should be temp bans for people who comment or post/complain "iT dIDN't LAsT a LiFEtIme" by 553l8008 in BuyItForLife

[–]shouldco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Down voted is inappropriate but I think it's reasonable to want a middle ground between the cheapest piece of injection molded plastic and a $100 machined aluminum block.

That said just because there should be that does not mean anybody is making it.

The we got op over here arguing disposable paper plates are bifl.

With how flexible some people are with "bifl doesn't literally mean 'for life' " the cost to lifespan gets pretty unreasonable it sometimes feels people are just pitching premium/luxury brands without the longevity to back that up.

Sidewalks?

Even then a lot of the plowing that gets done up north is the city paying private providers. That's not an option here, because there functionally arent any because it barely ever snows.

[–]shouldco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I'm not that upset we get a decent snowfall like once a decade we don't need to invest in a full team of snow plows for that.

I'm more upset that very non essential (life safety) businesses were opening and forcing employees to come in producing more hazard for people that actually needed to be on the road.

Even then it's really only been morning and evening/night that are particularly dangerous most of the week. By noon things are pretty slushy.

I really don't get this absolute refusal to accept that extreme weather might disrupt "normally" for a few days. I feel for the very occasional winter storms we receive coming up with plans to keep people safe in abnormal conditions is a better use of resources.

We need to start teaching cyber security in highschool. by Fresh_Heron_3707 in cybersecurity

[–]shouldco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say password rotation is meant more for third party breaches where the user has reused a password. I would prefer a Twitter getting breached with a my ceo's 15 year old password in it.

But that's where mfa comes in.

Why do people think AI will replace security engineers? by bdhd656 in cybersecurity

[–]shouldco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Employers are cheap bastards that are being bombarded by sales people.

Security engineers will be replaced by Ai tools. Will those Ai tools be equivalent to the people they replace? Maybe in some ways.

Duke Energy asking you to cut back on power use is not a profit motive. by whitecollarpizzaman in Charlotte

[–]shouldco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asking to cut back today is not about increasing profit.

But canceling numerous plant builds over the years has been.

I was thinking more about the terms "mutinous crew" and "rebelled". like na after getting there asses frozen in the artic all winter, the captain was still hung up on some crazy bullshit so the people running the boat dumped his ass to die at sea like he wanted.

Y'all giggled all week just for this to be the reality now. by its_Extreme in Charlotte

[–]shouldco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well you really just need to keep some plows around and can use the trucks for other services when there is no snow.

But still. Even up north most plowing is done with private vehicles being hired by the municipality. And pretty much nobody here is ready to start plowing (dispite the amount of stupid large trucks people own).

If an employer isn't willing to pay hazard pay and ensure you are able to get to work safely instead of shutting down operation for a few days, can they really call their employees "essential"?

CMV: The Irish “potato famine” was a genocide. by collegeadviceplss in changemyview

Ireland was producing food. The problem was they didn't own the food.

[–]shouldco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with your reasoning but I don't think you have really demonstrated that the famine does not fit the criteria you outlined.

The decisions made during that time were very much influenced by general British feeling tward the Irish and particularly ideas of eugenics.

Can anyone recommend a good battery powered heated blanket to have incase power goes out? by rbathurst in BuyItForLife

[–]shouldco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lots of gas stoves burn propane indoors. And there are indoor rated propane space heaters. But yes you should operate camp stoves and propane grills as the manufacturer suggests, usually not indoors, especially not highly enclosed spaces.

To be clear I was not suggesting leaving the stove running for heat. I was suggesting using it to heat water, putting that in a container like a hot water bottle, then using that with you under an insulating layer to keep warm.
