Perfect, thanks for the heads up.

There was a great Vinesauce segment on Satoshi Kawasaki. I love this weird shit.

It’s not my argument. That’s…why I retracted and said sorry. The next comment explaining how it happened, not describing the non existence of the strawman. This is getting very dumb. Let’s ignore eachother.

Correct.

You’re fighting an opinion I do not share, I was repeating what I was told by wait staff multiple times.

It was too harsh I saw where you could draw the wrong impression afterwards. That’s retracted now sorry.

I know it works and I’ve been overseas, you missed my point, but I see where it could be missed I’ll fix that. The waiters/waitresses in North America disagree with you and are part of what holds us back. You’re welcome to ask in their communities, I think you won’t like what you hear, same as I did.

The someones in question, namely the wait staff, are often the biggest defenders of tipping culture in my experience. They don’t WANT a higher base wage to happen. Without tipping they’d make less money and the career wouldn’t be viable for adults. Boo hooo. *in their words, not mine. I guess I had to clarify.

So when it comes to asshole accusations…eh. That’s your opinion. Nobody made them choose that career. You’re being protectionist and I’d reject that shaming attempt if I didn’t still tip a little.

I didn’t seek out being a cop, a priest, a door knocking scammer either. I think tipping is gross and I’d rather be homeless than prey on people and then defend my preying on people because it pays the bills. I lived a decade impoverished. Even at my most desperate I never turned to predatory careers. It’s a choice.

I tip a flat 5 bux. Not a percentage. For someone I interact with for 10 minutes I think it’s reasonable. I hope they split it with the cook staff. If it’s acceptable for a delivery driver who does work harder and has higher vehicle maintenance demands, then it’s fine in a restaurant too.

It’s more a younger generation thing due to TikTok. Depressing, innit.

If I ever start reposting memes, I’ll deliberately edit the bad words back in before posting.

I think OPs should too on Lemmy, but I’m not their mom.

$4.20 (heh.) a gram for the milled legal stuff in Canada. It’s perfectly fine, even better as a dry vaper.

Some shops here are still way over priced for no good reason, so I gotta drive a whole kilometer further to Value Bud.

The best weed is the discounted on sale one.

If I’m conscious, yes. Hope that helps, doc.

Please don’t give Amazon money for a shitty android stick. It’s rather locked down too and the GUI is ad riddled. A lot of playback bugs that I don’t have on a competitor product. There’s many better alternatives with less god awful remote controls as well.

Just make sure you’re not buying some generic Chinese thing with a compromised linux kernel.

Great speeds? Using Jdownloader2 if I go above 3.8MB/s with more than 2 connections I get throttled to worse than dial up speeds.

Occasionally it’ll hit a single game that’ll take days to finish for no apparent reason no matter what. It’s maddening.

Still better than archive.org’s broken fucking torrents that’ll never ever reach 100% completion. You’d think an archival site would care to fix that after YEARS for FUCKS SAKE, but nope!

I prefer the night, I’m one of those night owl freaks by nature.

Where I live it’s frankly too dry for uniform grass lawns and dandelions will completely take over if left alone. I’d be fine with it if I didn’t find the green jagged leafed plant and milky red stems so fugly, never mind the nice yellow flower.

I’ve been overseeding with white clover and native wildflowers since moving in both of which thrive in the spring choking out dandelions naturally. Puts nitrogen back into the soil too unlike grass.

All I do is aerate now.

Better for the bees in two ways. One, I’m not spraying chemicals and two, dandelions are actually pretty shit tier from a bee perspective.

I muse sometimes that humans generally have some Divine Guard Rails style of cope to ignore thinking about this as if we could never completely wipe ourselves out on the 99.9% extinction rate planet with an unavoidable expiry date thanks to how stars work.

Yes. My partner at the time had brought something up and I started to disagree.

Mid retort I realized I was speaking from my shitty upbringing again, paused to mull that over, and then rejected my own retort right there in front of her.

It’s not often anymore, but I’m still surprised by the occasional stupid idea put into my head by religious indoctrination as a know nothing child that I have to deprogram from even decades later.

How did your interlocutor react?

She values my ability to self reflect on the spot like that, so she reacted with love.

How would you like someone to react if you concede errors?

Without malice.

This photo gives me anxiety lmao.

Committed to the bit tho, gotta respect.
