The 0.8/kg is quite well documented, not just a single source.

Ok even looking at market prices of uranium, around $80/kg, Niger is still selling at 100 times cheaper than market rates to france. That is ridiculous.

People keep blaming Russia as if Africans are somehow incapable of making their own decisions. The reality is Africans are tired of French neo colonialism. Niger is a perfect example. They were selling france uranium for $0.8/kg when the market price is $200. That’s Niger’s resources going to power French power plants, while the people of Niger are struggling to survive. Fuck that shit.

Okay so what are you getting from either of those that you can’t get from attending the same on Teams/Zoom etc.?

Firstly real human interaction. There is a lot of team building that can occur just from having lunch together. Second, just physically being able to put sticky notes or drawing lines and watching someone else do so without having to have someone try to point out where exactly they put something to you in a virtual whiteboard is way more efficient.

Workshops also just feel like school and the presenters always talk too fast, quiet, or accented for my hearing and ADHD to make it worth me going to one, some dedicated study time always was the better route for me.

Firstly if you just have a presenter talking to you, then that doesn’t sound like a collaborative workshop. Workshops might have someone who guides the discussion but never just presenters otherwise that’s not really a workshop and more just a presentation that can be done online.

Meanwhile strategy sesh’s are just conversations with an end goal, nothing difficult about that at all.

I am not sure what kind of strategy sessions you are having but when you are setting things like commercial STRAP for divisions of 20K or more employees, you need more than just a conversation. You need to draw out roadmaps, have working sessions, even the human interactions through lunches and dinners plays a big part.

One thing people who are against work from home have to realize is that not everybody functions the same, some people do better remotely, others need the office.

It’s not black or white. I am a remote worker who travels regularly. Would I ever give up being remote. No. More than half my job can be done from home and I am not wasting my time travelling to the office. But that doesn’t mean I don’t acknowledge when something is just better in person. Not everything is perfect remote and not everything needs to be done in the office. You can have a mix of both and choose based on the requirements of the task.

Additionally, the type of people who are in positions to set organizational strategy are usually the types of personalities that do function between in person because they are typically extroverted personalities. It’s not like I am suggesting you bring a developer to an on site session. I am talking about leaders.

I prefer working remote as well and not suggesting going back full time. I just think there are some things that are better in person. Fortunately my work provides a good balance where I am remote 50 - 80% of the time but can fly in to different locations for a F2F when necessary.

Depends on the type of work. Workshops and strategy sessions are definitely better in person than online for me.

That’s absolutely not true. It is very difficult to develop lighter and thinner laptops. And the main utility of a laptop is for it to meet my needs while being portable. The portability is the main utility. A laptop like this will meet the utility needs for 99% of the population while giving them what they are looking for from a laptop the most, portability.

Laptops are primarily designed with portability in mind. If I wanted a work station I would use one. When you are traveling regularly and carrying a laptop in your backpack, every gram counts.

This happened in India. Right wing nut, sure, but probably not Christian.

Fuck the opposition, we are better off with the current government.

Ronald, not Ron. No nicknames in Florida until he gets a signed form from his mom permitting him to use Ron.

LOL. Compares round corners to 1984 and then claims to not be a twat. Maybe get out of your moms basement for once and go face the real world.

You are getting heavily down voted but honestly there is some truth to it, just may be phrased less extreme. There are too many people here who are really stuck in their techie bubble and seem to have little to no understanding of what the general population actually wants or likes or needs.

Clearly not as privileged as you lol

I don’t know if this is satire or serious.

Of serious, I envy your life. I wish my lifewas privileged enough that I could focus on hating rounded corners as much as you. Lol

Lol I really don’t. I am trying to figure out what condition would lead to actual anxiety for something like this.

Do you actually get anxiety from a curved corner or was that just hyperbole?

Because it’s hard for non techie users to even understand what the word instance means. It’s not a concept you encounter in everyday life.

And then without a broad algorithm that curate your feed, most users get confused on how to manage their communities across the fediverse.

Yet there are still arguing that this is not a big deal, even here on lemmy. Sigh
