  • For tipping countries like the US, the driver would only get a “has a tip” notification on the order (if they get any information like that at all!) so they can decide. There is no way the driver can see that there is a $40 order with a $4 tip, or a $40 order with a $16 dollar tip. Orders would be ignored all the time, and the service would fail.

    Oh, and if they did get a “has tip” flag for the order, then customers could just game it, by selecting “add tip” and setting it to $0 or $0.10 or something so their order gets that “has tip” flag!!

    Here is AU, there is no tipping, so the drivers get paid like normal people. None of this work for tip bullshit that seems to have survived this long in the US, its incredible that it has gotten this far. Now the US get asked for tips using self-service machines, that is the height of lunacy!









  • Yes, and this was my point.

    Take a word such as “Immutable” - an item or object that is incapable of change. Coming from the word “Mutable” which is the opposite - something that can be changed.

    These words are from the Latin “mutare” which means “to change”.

    So if you can see the irony of this, the word immutable should not exist. (and words like transmute and commute probably should not either - but they do suggest “mutare”.)


  • “a bit”? This is totally out of control, and the mod should lose all privleges, to being a mod.

    the other part is a person whom speaks english as a second language. Its not always a clear translation, particularly with English since the language is bastardised from many languages, and many “grammar rules” can be broken, by our own design.

    As a mod you should be amenable to that.




  • I use Bitwarden for pw manager and 2FA. I use that to create a random password for anything I sign up to.

    I am fortunate enough to run my own mail server, so for every signup I don’t trust, I make a new email address and only use it for that one thing. You can do facetube+normalemail@someplace.con if you cannot run your own. This at least lets you know who is leaking your info.

    I generally try to run as much FOSS as possible, I do dual boot Win/Linux because unfortunately we still have companies not providing for both OS.

    And if I go out in the public, I wear a cricket box.



  • just shove the soap wherever it needs to go?

    And this folks, is why I remind my family - Just because it’s soap, doesn’t mean its clean…

    I always wash from top down, with the exception of hair I do last. Since I practically have none (bit of shampoo every few days) I don’t think this matters unless I have been shat on by a bird or something!

    Neck/ears/face etc first (after a good pre-lather - see above, then a post-lather), then shoulders armpits, arms etc, then belly, balls and bum, down the legs to the ankles. Like someone else said here, I’m 190cm and at this point I am already uncomfortably prone! Feet are always dancing around in soapy water so they are fine, and I never got toe jam so it must be okay.


  • Strange. Chrome based browsers do not allow autoplay in most cases. If the site specifically default mutes the video then autoplay is allowed. I believe Firefox adheres to this as well. I don’t know anything about Safari.

    Will not autoplay: <video controls autoplay>

    Will autoplay: <video controls autoplay muted>

    If the sites you visit autoplay unmuted videos, they are circumventing html somehow. So this means you can probably use uBlock (or ABP) and its element picker to remove the element/video, but that’s also annoying if since you won’t ever see the videos, and something you do want to watch comes up.



  • I do, but only to support FOSS users in some communities that are not here [yet]. There is no opnsense community here in Lemmy, so when I see questions there in reddit, I help where I can.

    However, my “bio” or whatever it is called in reddit, clearly states that I have moved to Lemmy permanently.

    I am actually considering creating a opnsense community here and hoping that Franco will come and join, and take over ownership.



  • I would:

    • Buy a FU environment Car, and use 100% of the speedometer because I paid for it.
    • Buy a FU sized house, and fill it full of ballpit balls, cocaine and hookers.
    • Buy a FU size music venue, pay U2 to play at the venue, give free entry to everyone and arm them all with 4 cartons of eggs each.
    • Throw a massive FU party on the biggest ocean cruiser, invite only the top 10% of richest people. Then scuttle the thing.

    Do I have any money left?

    • 50% goes to developing Australia.
    • 25% goes to the Linux foundation.
    • 20% goes to whoever is still alive in my family.
    • 5% goes to lizards on the internet, because frankly, the cats are getting too much attention and they are wayyy overrated.
