I mean that is basically what people's UI complaints usually boil down to: things are in different places than where I'm used to.

I guess I'm one of the few here, but I just don't see what so romantic about two people hearing a loud noise that can be heard from literally miles away.

So you have to fiddle with the volume less on vinyl?

That's the one good selling point I've heard for vinyl so far.

You can only steal investor money if you're already rich and the investment is coming from the government.

For every story of a person being given a raise, there a million stories of a person fighting for a raise and being denied.

Even the union jobs those others guys are talking about, you know what the raises are in our new contract? Five cents for the equivalent of three years of full time work.

Don't be fooled by the echo chamber of cushy office jobs that is so prevalent on Lemmy. You hear about these things because almost nobody else here has to work these shitty jobs like we do.

I have a conspiracy that it's part of a psy-op to make individuals feel like they somehow hold stake in the corporation, so they're more likely to support corporate decisions.

We want them both at the same time. We want to be winners, but we imagine that if we were, we would be fair, thereby creating a utopia.

People associate those words with their fantasies, not with the ideological tenets that actually define them.

Email doesn't have any other word that refers to a singular instance though.

With snail mail, a singular piece of mail is called a letter.

With email, a singular piece of mail is called ... an email.

Thus it is reasonable that many such pieces of email would be pluralized as emails, much like we call many pieces of snail mail letters.
