It's so difficult to see a doctor in Canada, really, if it's not an emergency, you have to wait weeks or even months. Now I need to see a doctor so he/she can refer me to a gynecologist because I need them to prescribe birth control pills because the pharmacist doesn't have the ones I take and doesn't want to give me similar ones that may or may not work for me and honestly I just want to kill myself

UEFI getting owned by the vendor logo parser code is extremely on brand.

Tons of time and effort put into securing platform stuff and it gets popped anyway because execs want the laptop to show the user a Lenovo logo for 3 seconds on boot even though it's already printed right there on the fucking laptop.

Junior doctors in the UK will stage another strike around Christmas.

Following record industrial action by student doctors, talks followed between their unions and the government over pay and working conditions. The British Medical Association (BMA) union said the proposal was worth an extra 3% on average this year. This is on top of an existing 8.8% increase; the BMA wants a 35% pay uplift to make up for what it says are below-inflation rises in pay since 2008.

The strikes will be for three days from 07:00 on 20 December and six days from 07:00 on 3 January. The January strike will be record-breaking in scope and comes at what is considered the most busy period of the year for the health service, adding extraordinary pressure to the government to give the workers what they are owed.

Far from subsiding, we are witnessing greater agitation by the workers and growing militancy owing to the cost-of-living crisis which is impoverishing millions of ordinary Britons. The working-class is refusing to bow down to the rich's desire to crush workers in jobs with poor pay and poor conditions while homes, food, energy and other necessities sky-rocket in price, lining the pockets of the rich.

something I noticed with progressives I know (and something I did when I considered myself progressive) is that they try to get into literature/art made by marginalized people, but it often turns into a tedious ritual similar to taking bitter medicine, because that literature/art isn't actually enjoyable and doesn't resonate with them, they do it out of a "moral" obligation.

I see #ElonMusk is saying that if X (formally Twitter) goes to the wall, it will be the 'advertisers [that] bankrupted the company'... once again he seems unable to see that is a symptom not the cause of X's problems; which of course lies with him.

I guess we'll be seeing another flow of folk into the #fediverse if the advertisers 'strike' continues (s many think it will).

Its an extraordinary example of billionaire hubris!

the funniest thing about the arbitrary mass hatred towards all journalists on here is you'll go look at an account that is doing it and they're all going off on their various beefs and presenting facts about them, with links, all of which of course wouldn't have been possible WITHOUT A JOURNALIST.
