DEI hire >> nepo hire

I appreciate your response, thanks!

I mean, there's room to talk about addressing systemic change and immediate quality-of-life suggestions in mutual exclusion, right? It's not like taking steps to improve your life now is capitulation, and as I said having roommates was a step up in living conditions and made me better prepared mentally and financially to exist. I don't see the irony at all -- apologies if I'm misunderstanding -- but we have to accept some nuance here.

Is this not a good-faith suggestion? If you're going to disagree at least explain your downvote. I had roommates post-thirty and it improved my living situation drastically.

Crock pot stew is barely any effort too

Hope you find your comma key, pal!

Put your foot down everywhere then -- it's a fallacy to think that it's not worth it to resist data harvesting because it already gets collected "everywhere" anyway, take one step at a time to make it harder and harder. Opting out of this is just one step.

Isn't reducing the size of the dataset worth it? I'd rather them have a picture from three years ago than a new scan every month or two.

It's not such a binary thing as winning or losing, it's a constantly shifting process. The only way to actually lose is by giving up -- instead, consider it making it as hard as possible for your privacy to be infringed upon. Sometimes it's more inconvenient, but what makes us such a farmable populace is our reluctance to be inconvenienced. Be good at being uncomfortable.

I refused, it went fine. I had to repeat myself because it was unexpected and dudebro wasn't prepared, and they had to turn on the other machine and wait for it to start up, but it only delayed me like 2 minutes. The more people ask, the easier it gets.
