I door dashed for a bit between jobs. Never judged the customer unless they were exceptionally poor tippers. In my area, tip is only added on after service. One time it was pouring rain and this dude answered the door, told me how shitty it must be to deliver in that kind of weather, and then closed the door and no tip ever came through.

Depends on the area. I worked in a part of Brooklyn for years (all the way until 2024) where I needed to ensure we had Cantonese speaking employees because it was much more prevalent than Mandarin.

It took some time for me to realize that not finding a continuous stream of new content was a feature and not a flaw. It meant that there was no algorithm feeding me an endless stream of crap in hopes of keeping me glued to the screen. It meant I could close the app and move on with my day and check back much later. That realization made me embrace it.

Oh that’s awesome. Didn’t expect an ios26 refresh so quickly.

Last month when I went on vacation, I caught something while on the vacation. I would have sworn it was Covid or flu but tests came back negative. Just a bad viral infection. I guess those still exist.

Only works on phone models that support Apple Intelligence.

Oh well. I’m sticking with my 15 Plus

I actually just discovered that song by accident today lol. It was for a Venom movie? Weird collab but he’s always had a bit of the social commentary piece to him. This album just seems to be leaning more on the heavier sound.

Edit: OH! Hold the Line! I forgot about that one.

Grandson’s new album seems to be shaping up to have those tones. First released tracks hit them pretty pointedly. He’s not as refined as some of the artists you mentioned, though.

If you’re looking for something approachable and not demanding on space, a soundbar setup with rears is a good alternative to traditional setups. I’m not necessarily a fan of Samsung sound myself, but I have a Sonos setup at home and I absolutely love what it did for my listening experience. Tuning it to the room was the icing that made it perfect.

Sonos isn’t right for everyone though. Either way, go find a place to LISTEN to the setup you’re looking at it. Don’t let fancy videos distract you. Close your eyes and listen. If you like the way it sounds, buy it and be proud of it.

What pisses me off is that they have no accountability to efficiency in operations. Their approved monopoly guarantees them an operating profit rate so they just need to show their costs and then explain the cost to get them back to their guaranteed profitability.

What’s the upfront price difference in the water heaters?

Yeah I took a pay off plan for the Go Color 7 Gen II. It was worth it for me even though I only just read regular books.

The is one reason I went with a Boox device instead. No reliance on pre-baked software.

I was in and out in 5 minutes. Four candidates ranked. Cuomo and Eric Adams were not in that group.

I just got myself an Onyx Boox Go Color 7 Gen II and I love it.

I guess all of the morons are out downvoting it because of all the usual race/gender reasons.

It looks ok enough. I’ll watch it though I’m not sure the character looks strong enough to carry the story herself.

I had high hopes for this but it seemed to be all wasted.

It had moments of “oh look, this is like Winter Soldier” but then that faded

It had moments of “let’s hit upon some of the racial tension involved in taking on the role as cap” and then that faded.

Bucky’s cameo was the most “cram him in there somewhere” cameo I’ve seen in a long time.

It felt like a movie that got stitched together by a board of executives.

So did the Prince

I have unknown numbers forwarded directly to voicemail on iOS, but yeah I’m getting a bunch too.

Just looks like every Linux user to me.
