Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Fuck apple and it's "AI powered" battery charge protector for my laptop that says it'll stop it at 80% (or 85%?) based on your usage habits, but always charges it to full because fuck your battery. I'd bet money they don't give you the option to permanently set it and not be AI driven because they know the battery dies sooner because their AI battery manager sucks.
I may be triggered.
No, they give you the option to cap the charge percentage at 80% but you’ll need to buy iPhone 15 to get it 🙃
Jesus, my Moto G from 2022 has that feature... Apple is a bunch of aasholes.
I'm specifically talking about macbooks.
My laptop is of course at 100% despite what this says, plugged into my wall outlet, like usual.
That means your battery (which can hold 94% of its original specified charge) is at 100% of 94%. Not indicating 94% and never going higher (because the 6% is unable to hold a charge). What it can hold, is full, so 100%.
...
I understand how to read.
Ignore the 94% it's the part below it.
It's supposed to stop charging my battery at 80%. It (edit: almost) always charges my battery to 100% despite the setting.
