curt, to news in Two-thirds of CEOs think staff will return to office five days a week, survey finds

If they want to link pay to attendance then they should also compensate the employee for the time he/she takes to get to and from the work place.

curt, to politics in Kevin McCarthy Will Devastate Poor Americans in Order to Win Over the Far-Right

The far right caucus is a lot like hostage takers who threaten to kill one hostage every hour until their demands are met.

curt, to technology in Reddit is removing ability to opt out of ad personalization based on your activity on the platform

When I do a search on some topic and Reddit comes up as a choice, it's my last option. I feel guilty when I do choose it. I've drunk the fediverse coolaide. It tastes good.

curt, to technology in Elon Musk Says He Might Put X/Twitter Behind A Paywall

I would imagine people with huge followings and money to burn. Once the paywall is up, those huge followings are going to shrink fast.

curt, to news in Famed tech journalist (Walt Mossberg) deletes X account with epic rant at Elon Musk

It doesn't look like he'll be joining Mastodon. Maybe some day.

curt, to cocktails in Found another use for rosemary symple

For lazy guys like myself, who has Rosemary in the garden, I'd probably buy the Rosemary syrup made by Bacanha.

curt, to news in Trump's legal advisers urge him to cancel press conference to refute Georgia allegations: Sources

From George Takai today on Mastodon:

We’ll see this “irrefutable proof” that Trump won the 2020 election around the same time as his tax returns. He now says that instead of releasing the YUGE report Monday, he’ll produce it at trial. Which he wants to start in April of 2026. Who else sees the con?

We'll just have to wait two and half years.

curt, to technology in Amazoned! Online Vendors Abused and Screwed Over

In the end of the article, the author plugged their competing platform so this isn't a neutral opinion. I still agree with it. A federation of online retailers would be an interesting idea. Given that it involves exchanging money for products, it would be a lot more completed than kbin, lemmy, or Mastodon.

Brick and mortar store do it too. Pharmacies sell name brand drugs and their own generic version next to them. I buy the generic version. I would like to lose that option. Amazon is a different story.

curt, to news in Trump's legal advisers urge him to cancel press conference to refute Georgia allegations: Sources

I don't think Trump's lawyers have anything to worry about. If Trump had anything to prove his innocence, he would have brought it out a long time ago. He may even say he has all this great evidence, but now his lawyers won't let him produce it so you'll just have to trust him.

curt, to cocktails in The bluest aviation I’ve ever had

Could it be Parfait Amour? The Bols version I have is deep blue.

curt, to technology in "They need us. We don't need them:" The fall of Twitter is making the trolls and grifters desperate

The escalation may have nothing to do with the slow demise of Twitter. It may be the case that the liberals have gotten used to one level of trolling and ignore it. Trollers then have to become even more extreme to get their attention.

I kind of like the "troll-industrial complex", but agree on your over take on the writing. Gone are the days when writers could produce great alliterations like "nattering nabobs of negativity".

curt, to news in Like a hot tub: Water temperatures off Florida soar over 100 degrees

For a rough estimate, double the Celsius temp and add 32 to get Fahrenheit. Subtract 32 and divide by 2 to go from Fahrenheit to Celsius. If you want an accurate conversion multiply by 9/5 instead of 2.
