Yeah, obviously i dont think customers should be in the kitchen…
Thats why it makes no sense for “carrying food from the kitchen” to be an optional service charge… it’s a MANDATORY part of the product you are selling… so make it part of the price…
15% for a good job, 10% for a mediocre job, 5% for anything below
I maybe make a 10% bonus if my department absolutely smashes sales numbers… i cant imagine getting 15% for doing my job normally (i consider doing a “good job” to be my normal output) or even getting 5% for doing “below” mediocre…
In fact, in most jobs, doing below mediocre work usually gets you fired, not bonuses
North americans are so stupid that some restautants tried in canada and the US to simplify things
menu-price = food + taxes + 20% tip
Final bill ends up being the same price as before but people saw bigger number and freaked out…
They’d rather be lied to by the menu price and then scammed for tips at the very end rather than have clear and transparent pricing…
I dont want to live on this planet anymore
I find the forced tip is better than the emotional extortion at the payment terminal… it ends up being the same price
And if it’s a forced tip, just take the next logical and include the service in the price of the item… and if service really isnt included in the production of the food, just let me pick it up from the kitchen myself. No need to pay $5 just to walk 20m with a plate.
Finally, the next logical step, include any taxes in the menu price and make round numbers… $10, $15, $18, etc… final bill $55… this is what they do in most of europe
I hate looking at bills that have numbers seemingly generated by RNG… $54.97 for a meal, wtf… just make it $55
So anyone who is underpaid at work should ask customers to pay extra instead of taking it up with their boss? Should grocery store staff start spitting in people’s food if customers dont hand over 20% more money at the checkout?
I’m all for supporting workers and i begrudgingly tip in our broken system most of the time… but i cant stand the entitlement of service staff who get pissed about bad tippers… take it up with your boss…
This is just the rich business owners (who are underpaying their staff) dividing the working class by framing this as the fault of the customer (typically also working class people…)
So now waitstaff are complaining about bad tippers and fighting other workers rather than focusing on the real problem.
My issues with spectacle is time dependent. The clipboard automatically clears the image after 20 seconds and there doesnt seem to be a way tp configure that
“AI IS AMAZING AND INEVITABLE!!!” = astroturfing
“AI sucks at X, but sometimes useful at Y… use with caution.” = astroturfing
“AI SUCKS AT LITERALLY EVERY TASK!!! ITS ALL SLOP!!! SLOP SLOP SLOPPITTY SLOP!!!” = only organic discussion and reasonable take…
Look, there are 100s of valid reasons why AI sucks and is unethical… in fact, it’s pretty much 100% built on unethical methods, no doubt…
But “AI sucks at everything and literally has zero good use cases” is not a real argument, but it seems to be the most popular opinion around here.
I disagree with 90% of the pro-AI stuff out there, i’m just pointing out that its rare to hear a reasonable discussin on the topic here that isnt just 100% hate
This is the first comment section i’ve seen on lemmy with a reasonable discussion about AI use that wasnt instantly downvoted into oblivion for being pro-AI
Usually this place is full of the “EVERYTHING IS SLOP” crowd without any nuance as to how it is being actually used to do small tasks well under the supervision of a qualified person.
Its the same wirh firefox… so much FUD spreads for every tiny missetep. And the result is likely that more people stay with gmail/chrome or people killing upstream by supporting forks
AsmL is a dutch company…
Also ,i’m not sure if HBM requires the smallest nodes
Kinetic energy is related to mass and the square of velocity
A heavier vehicle absolutely has more killing power against a pedestrian…
You’re right. The mass of the pedestrian makes no difference… any vehicle is going to turn them into a red mist
Steam Doesnt even need to push hardware to increase sales… plenty of idiots like me with a 200 game backlog, and didnt even bother to stress the valve CDN by downloading the gamr even once
Why not both?
If phones are causing more collisions… then bigger vehicles have more kinetic energy, hence more deaths…
Cries in canadian
They cant even their own data from unauthorized access… i dont know why anyone trusts them with their private chats (whatsapp) and their photographs (instagram)
Nvidia doesnt have chip factories… they just tell TSM to make a different chip if they need to pivot
I rarely use google, and i never tried redoing a search to see if the summary changes… i just assumed the summary was cached and re-used if you or someone else makes a similar search…
thats wild if they’re burning up gpu time on EVERY query
We are fucked
Do these studies also show effect of neoliberal austerity on forest management budgets?
But also, i dont want to make this about “X type worker shouldnt make more than Y type worker”… servers should be paid whatever they get paid. Just dont put the burden on the customer… i dont care if they make more than me, or my CEO or whatever… just dont hassle me with the tipping decision.
a lot of that kind of “servers make more than X” discourse ends up belittling one worker with “unskilled labour” terminology. I dont believe in anything called unskilled labour.
