Court "ordered" end to a strike generally means that any contractual, union or legal protections workers have are forfeited if the strike continues (i.e. folks can be fired, benefits lost, even sued in some cases). This is not uncommon in regimes where the judicial system has been compromised (USA, Israel, etc). That being said... be a real shame if productivity of non-striking workers were to mysteriously plummet to effectively non-existent levels. ;-)

Not without buying a lot of folks RVs, at least. #SCROTUS

She obviously didn't realize that a Las Vegas 6, is a prison 9.

"American Automakers Refuse to Participate in Race to Make Accessible, Fuel-Efficient Vehicles"

Fixed that title for you, Verge.

From a group of people that thinks transparency is having a set list of prices for their rulings.

If they left for that reason, they weren't visiting you, they were visiting your internet connection. :-(

Rad City support could not or would not explain how my battery might have stopped working, but would only say it was "not covered by warranty". They could also not explain what sort of causes of battery failure were covered by their warranty. It was pretty clear they just didn't want to cover the expense of honoring their warranty (the battery is probably one of the single most expensive parts on their bikes).

Almost got scammed by Rad Bikes this way. Battery mysteriously failed 10 months into their 1 year warranty. Rad Bikes accused me of sabotaging the battery and refused to honor their warranty, but "generously" offered me free shipping on a $300+ replacement battery. Turns out the off-the-rack fuse they use blew; identical down to the manufacturer to the ones used in cars. Replacement fuse was <20 cents and fixed the problem instantly.

Uh-oh, looks like someone is going to have to buy Clarence Thomas another RV to get out of this one!

That's like getting picked up from Catholic Boys Choir by a white van with "Free Candy" spray painted on the side.

 

Is there anything like /r/listentothis on lemmy.world or elsewhere in the federated lemmy-verse? I need to be exposed to music that I'd normally not find otherwise. :-)
