  • This entire tipping thing is terrible - including for dashers themselves.

    It means dashers income heavily relies on strangers being kind enough to leave some extra.

    It means customers are gonna feel bad for not paying more than their order amount (and they probably will pay the tip)

    It means company can employ slave labor for extremely low pay and still have people willing to do this.

    Tipping benefits only one party - the companies. We need to stop it.

    I’d argue you still have one skeleton if you lose limbs or teeth.

    Amount of skeletons is an integer representing the anount of bone structures holding and protecting human body (or whatever’s left of it).

    The real question is, how much of which parts of skeleton can we lose with it still being skeleton instead of a set of bones?

    Recommending Linux is good; forcing it down someone’s throat is not.

    If parents are just comfy using Windows, it’ll get them super frustrated when they’ll face new issues coming from Linux use, as you just can’t turn Linux into Windows and they never asked for it.

    Now, if they complain about all the shit Windows throws at them, you can offer an alternative.

    Besides what another commenter noted about indistrialization being product of capitalism and then fierce competition, here’s one more thing:

    Do you see all those green activists buying reusable bags? Taking their bottles, recycling everything? Well, this has already been there in the past, and most notably - in socialist countries. Pretty much till its death USSR, for example, heavily favored reusable things, there just weren’t plastic bags and plastic bottles and all that waste, and recycling, especially of glass and metal and paper, was a super normal thing and people got money/trade-in for that.

    Man that’s news from 2016, like, it’s a bit rare occasion, y’know. You’re way more likely to get borked by Arch even after reading all the instructions, and it did happen numerous times.

    Touching grass is what I do when you take steps to intervene in your system to make an update work.

    I see you are an Arch maximalist, but that goes beyond reason. Even Arch proponents are normally not as aggressive on the topic, and admit Arch is too complicated in that regard.

    A fully functional system, just like any other normal OS?

    You hit update - boom - you get one, seamlessly, with no breakages and no other user interaction. And that’s how it works pretty much everywhere - except, you know, Arch.

    If you’re fine with it - that’s fine, go ahead and tinker all you like. But don’t expect others to have the same priorities.

    Communism isn’t inherently authoritarian, it holds no relation to authoritarianism or democracy, just like capitalism, and can exist within any political formation. Conflating communism with authoritarianism and capitalism with democracy will likely result in completely justified dictionary arguments, as this misconception is actually very important ideologically.

    Associating communism with things like USSR or, in an even more cursed way, China and claiming communism is authoritarian is actively harmful, especially considering that neither of them ever had communism to begin with - they had socialism and claimed to be directed towards communism some time in the future.

    Such shortcuts, like communism=authoritarianism=evil prevent you from actually familiarizing yourself with the concepts and puts you in a position when you oppose a strawman.
