What is the worst thing your boss has ever done to you?
Basically, what your boss does (current or former) that you would call coercion. Things like serving food that is prepared in an unsafe manner, making you break laws with regard to environmental protection. Basically making you do things not by the book. Any other interpretation of the question is also fine :) Also things tha wouldn't fly if the workers wore the pants also applies.

Which firefox fork is the best choice for privacy?
So many options, so many opinions... I want to switch from Bromite to Firefox but I want it to be the last switch I have to do for a while.

If the death rate of smallpox is 30%, and apparently 'majority' of the Indigenous people there died from smallpox, how did their population decline by 90%?

How do you (easily) respect boundaries?
For me, trying to respect boundaries tires me out more. idk why. I struggled to respect boundaries as a child and early teenager. I think I still struggle to respect boundaries; but I am uncertain because I haven't talked to an acquaintance in 7 months. As a child and early teenager; I constantly hit on my female friends. (I don't know why.) * I keep looking at people's feet and it tires me. I don't know if I developed a foot fetish; or it's just a habitual behavior that I developed because I hate eye contact. --- I know that ignoring boundaries can cause health problems long term. --- My reasoning for this behavior: * I do get pressured by my parent to go to the store with them because, to me, they're ~40 and may struggle to transport groceries. * After 8 years age, I used to be pressured to go to church; but that stopped when I became a teenager. * I only hungout with a friend at home *once*. Usually I only have acquaintances. Maybe I have less experience with friendship. I think I feel pressured to go along with everything.

Advice on language learning for an old man
After getting fired by my corporate job, three weeks before my NYC sublet lease expired, I decided, hastily to run away. PR was the furthest I could get without worrying about working laws...so I went for it, and honestly, I love it! But...I need to learn Spanish, and idk if I'm too dumb or too old...but three years in and I can't do very much. I don't have many friends, I can't afford to live in the tourist zone (I wash dishes) so making friends without Spanish is near impossible. Any advice? Anyone my age that has mastered a foreign language? Any tips or ideas appreciated. Thanks!

That's a good question, certainly not something we're taught in schools/media about nazism. I'm posting this here because although it's usually a sign for nazi propaganda ahead, i find it's a good reminder that when a politician proposes to "deport" people (such as Zemmour in France proposing to deport muslims), genocide is how this ends up in most cases. No, deportation is not more humane. Fuck all nazis, even those wearing a tie/suit and speaking on public television in the 2020s. Did lemmy know social-democracy and authoritarian communism is what gave birth to fascism as we know it? Next week in "did lemmy know", we'll talk about anti-muslim genocides in the USSR.

Seriously, why is this being kept hidden, why can this not be discussed publicly, or taught in schools, why is it that White people are being persecuted and held to blame for a burden they hardly carried? Could it be that the entire foundation of progressive ideology, and the idea of equality in general, that is, the White mans guilt, is built on a lie?
