We have part-time jobs as well, but those usually come with a minimum number of hours. Zero hours contracts were brought in to bypass those rules. Since zero hours contracts came in, part-time contracts practically disappeared.

Yep, exactly that. There are laws that say if you work more than a certain number of hours per week, you’re entitled to benefits like pension, paid holiday, etc. Zero hours contracts let companies get away with not providing those, as they’ll keep each individual staff member below the required hours, because there’s no guarantee of a minimum number of hours in their contract.

It’s absolutely atrocious, but the government spins it to make it sound like a benefit by saying you have extra time, you can lead a flexible life. What it means in reality for most people is that they need multiple jobs and still get no benefits that a full time job would provide.

Software updates can take quite a bit of bandwidth though. Call of Duty updates are significant events on the network, at the scale of streaming major sporting events.

Sometimes we need to do stuff that is illegal in certain countries to further our rights. I get that this is a tricky rule to implement, but there are countries that it is illegal to be queer. So our very existence is illegal. Don’t be afraid to break a law or two.

I know that MAP people like to try to glom on to queer rights, and I’m completely against that, but we shouldn’t fear fighting against injustice when it’s illegal to live a life of love against hate.

What’s the source of this?

Don’t forget pwsh! 🤪

I have a t-shirt that says Anita Bryant sucks oranges.

Those look like specials. They’re all still using guns, which seemed to be the core looter mechanic. I doubt they had enough time in 6 months to rework the entire combat system to focus around things other than the guns.

It is telling that they underplayed the guns here. They heard the complaints, they’re just not doing anything about it.
