If you're arguing that people are bad at their jobs then so be it. Clearly someone fucked up at Warner in order to accumulate all that debt. At the same time, if the people getting bounced were really deadweight then they would have been included in the layoffs. They wouldn't be getting buyout offers and/or be getting pressured by an RTO order.

Skydance doesn't really count as venture capital in this case. They're an actual media company that already owned Paramount and recently acquired Warner.

Let's be honest, these people aren't going to magically find work at a competitor overnight. Some of them will be unemployed or underemployed for 18+ months depending on what they were doing at Skydance/Paramount/Warner before taking the buyout. And i can almost guarantee you that the RTO and buyouts are aimed at Warner people. Though who knows, maybe they're stupid enough to bounce folks from Paramount.

In any case that is a poor excuse for people not being able to negotiate over work conditions or pay.

"Just go work somewhere else"
"There is nowhere else, you bought all the competiton"

Warner wasn't profitable though...

That's boring though. Hulkapoodle is much more compelling for military applications!

Ohhh good choices!

Trump and Zelensky are doing a pretty good job of keeping petroleum and refined petroleum product prices high. If all you want to do is reduce fossil fuel production, well, there you go.

Most Windows "overclockers" are using PBO with the curve optimizer on any recent AMD CPU to actually run undervolted.

They aren't exactly gonna share their org chart to let us know. But somehow they made a healthy profit and saw share increases while carrying 12k employees. Something must have been working for them.

If they were "redirecting resources", they'd assign those 1000 people to other departments/tasks.

Maybe they're just waiting for you to lead by example? Try asking Brandon Herrera. That should be interesting.

That's pretty cowardly of you to ask someone else to take up arms on your behalf.

What do you expect them to do? Shoot the police? Randy Weaver learned the hard way how that goes.

If you enter the country, you can be searched without a warrant. Not needing a warrant means they don't have to present a reason for the search to a judge (or anyone else). The lie is the legal equivalent of them saying "because". CSAM is the generic bogeyman excuse they'll give if they don't want the suspect to tip off and of his buddies.
