I hope bigger retailers jump on board with this too 🤞

Doesn’t mention anything about infrastructure and I’d guess that has a lot to do with it in the US. Very, very few cities are setup with any type of pedestrian traffic or public transport in mind.

Imagine Americans going to other countries and complaining that they don’t get free refills or free water and saying stuff like “if you’d just increase the cost of everything, you could afford to offer free refills and free water”

Like, I agree, tipping culture sucks and I wish it wasn’t the norm in America but IT IS and to just go there and pretend like they should change overnight for tourists is such a wild take.

This is it 100%.

I’m shocked at the amount of responses here willing to make the workers suffer so that they can continue getting their food/drinks and supporting the owners taking advantage of the system.

ah yes, put the onus on the people just trying to survive while still patronizing the restaurant that the owner continues to make profits on.

If you feel this strongly, you should boycott all restaurants that make their servers rely on tips.

Wait you take a moral stand against McDonald’s but are willing to stiff workers at restaurants and support owners that are taking advantage of them? This take makes no sense.

Honestly, its hard to say for sure but they do have early voting on the Thursday, Friday, and Saturday preceding the Tuesday election, so there seems to be ample opportunity aside from just the election day for people to vote if they want to.

No, not even half, it was decided by 1/4th of the voting population. 2.4 million voters registered in Oklahoma and only 630,085 voted on this state question.

348,914 against
281,171 for the proposal

I really hope the rest of the world can step up and fill the void the US is leaving 🤞

Why are you reposting this 2 days later from your original here? It was also posted by someone else 2 days ago here.

I feel like I’ve just been scrolling through the same content for 3 days now.

That’s a great solution. It think we were talking more about people that don’t even use PCs. Older people like grandparents or other tech illiterate that maybe use a tablet at most.

Right… but the discussion is specifically about how Apple is pretty much the only consumer friendly TV device available right now. Hopefully a new, better one comes along but to your point, that one will eventually be shit too soooo idk whats the point its all going to burn

The creepiest thing mine has done is have the Peanuts cartoon screensavers be relevant to the weather in my area. Seeing Snoopy and Woodstock get blown around on a windy day is oddly nice haha

I don’t actually know its happening, I might just be more aware of the windy cartoons or rainy cartoons when I’m actually experiencing that weather 🤷‍♂️

I’m not super up to date on Fluxer and how it works but I do know that they’re still working on getting full self hosting available. Without any other context, my assumption is that’s a requirement for their hosted instance for whatever reasons they have.

Besides, if it’s just asking for date of birth, is it really that much of an invasion of privacy? I mean the internet has been like that since the 90s and it’s been fine. You just lie if you want and the liability theoretically then moves to you instead of them.

I think it’s important to note that quote was from 2015.

Parachutes need altitude to work and it doesn’t sound like they got much after takeoff.

Depends on your definition of “need healthcare” I guess. I was mostly just cracking a joke about how expensive it is.

Yeah that was the other half. I think all Americans that needed healthcare struggled to afford it.

I didn’t mean to come across like that, I just meant a lot of the far right in America that hate China also hate data centers. I’m sorry if I offended you or anyone else with that. It really wasn’t my intention.

So, there’s a bit of push back in the general aviation community to not equip their older planes with ADS-B capabilities due to cost. I’m not sure I agree that the cost is that prohibitive but I do think that equipping ALL planes with ADS-B is the best thing for safety, so I’m okay with whatever makes that happen.

If tying taxes to it means we’re more likely to enforce ADS-B for all aircraft, lets do it. If tying taxes to ADS-B is more likely to increase the push back from general aviation then I’d say lets hold off and find another way.
