That’s a good tune. One of the first I learned when I figured out power chords on the guitar.

Sci-Fi Author: In my book I invented the Torment Nexus as a cautionary tale

Except in this case it’s a political party instead of a tech company.
I always thought Danzig was pretty much baseline metal in the 90s. His other band was (is? I don’t keep up) a few subgenres of punk.
But truthfully I don’t try to keep up with how they draw genre lines. I like what I like, and Danzig makes music I like.
I have nothing useful to add to anything you’ve said and agree with your message.
Yep. A lot of these tech companies that have run in the red for years are now being called on to produce a profit and pay the big backers.
Why shouldn’t they be allowed cell phones, at least as a privilege? They shouldn’t be allowed to harass anyone, but they’re people. JPay and other predatory companies put an undue burden on families just trying to talk to their loved ones (who, let’s face it, may not be guilty) in the pen. There are even worse companies that pretend to be places where you can send money or put money on a phone card for a loved one but once you get to the fine print it’s just a scam. That dries up if you just allow folks the opportunity to talk to their family during their downtime.
But fuck them, I guess. People are in jail to be punished and if they don’t have the maximum amount of punishment 24x7 along with their families then we’re not really getting our money’s worth.
Or maybe he’s talking on a butt phone.
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
I can’t argue with that because honestly I was jealous of the folks running it. But they are buying new equipment today and I’m not.
It’s a veritable fuckton cheaper. In scientific terms at least.
I’m chaos grandpa in one and tax evader in a different one.
Same. I have a lot of legacy recording equipment that I won’t replace until it stops working and it’s all mini USB.
I’m just glad I got what I did instead of FireWire.
I sing karaoke fairly often. I sing the nonsense lyrics and no one seems to notice, especially if I sing 90s rock.
Not as prevalent these days, but a lot of EMR/EHR was built on XP. Some of those companies went out of business and the clinics using the software never upgraded because they couldn’t get the data out into another system.
Until the CIO gets the “telephone game” version of what’s going on.
That’s not the one I was talking about, but it doesn’t surprise me.
I’m less concerned about that and more concerned about supervillains building lairs.
Some of us always look like shit.
I just assume it’s a convoluted way to present Loss.
Same thing is happening a lot of places. One large american company that I’m not going to mention is doing several rounds of layoffs along with a return to office initiative.
Goddammit, you brilliant bastard.
They make fake tattoo sleeves.
