For UPS, management also includes web, backend, IT, etc positions. Basically if you weren't a hub worker or delivery driver, you're likely non-union and structured as management.

I think return to office mandates are silly. Regardless, it's more about maintaining the office market values, right? So basically need to accept that's where things are going and that will inevitably happen.

I'm not an economist, so I don't know the full implications of it all, but I know things will be in for a ride.

They did a test run at my airport some years ago, but I don't think it took off. Sadly, I never got to check it out for myself.

Sometimes I do what I call "time travelling" where I pirate first with the intention to buy later when it's cheaper.

I got the FLCL art book from somewhere. I'll try to remember and find my sources, but probably tomorrow since it's late here right now.

It doesn't seem like a platform that will do him many favors, unless it starts developing features he's using on YouTube. His YT videos have multi-audio support so they can be watched in different languages, and I'm pretty sure X is single audio and also more compressed.

If it does pan out, at least the money will go into videos/helping others.

I don't think so, I searched around but didn't see anything noteworthy. Maybe a hacker will get bored one day and jailbreak them, but seems like there's no hope as of right now.

I haven't seen it in ages, and I can't critique the approach, but the maker of SuperSize Me tried to spend 30 days doing a minimum wage job. Iirc, it wasn't great and they had so much debt by the end of it.

I wish these people could get a similar perspective.
