It’s what the English call a bachelorette party apparently.

I vote for Super Switch

It happens to me more and more these days as well.

I think your memory might be failing on this, because we’re about the same age and autosave wasn’t really a common feature in the 90s. MacOS didn’t introduce autosave until OSX Lion in 2010, and Microsoft’s auto-recover (which was their only feature even close to autosave until office365) wasn’t introduced until the 2000s and didn’t work properly until 2007.

That was probably because of the density of the cheese. I had the same thing happen to me with a bag of gnocchi once. They really thought it was something illicit because they had a big armed security guy on either side of me while they had me open it, and they looked really disappointed to find out what it really was.

Because security is more concerned with finding weapons and drugs. Customs/Borders Enforcement is the group tasked with finding prohibited plants and animals, and they don’t usually start looking for those things until you get to the destination country.

I didn’t say tipping wasn’t a thing for delivery drivers. I said it was not typical for contract work. But regarding this comparison, tipping was in no way expected for deliveries before the apps. Del drivers back then were given a livable base wage and were reimbursed for mileage and gas on their vehicle, which the apps also do not do. I know because I did deliveries in college before the apps. It was also normal to tip less than 10% of the purchase price for delivery, yet the suggested tip values in app are always 10% or more. And another difference is drivers weren’t allowed to pick deliveries based on the tip value, but that’s how the apps work making your “tip” effectively the payment for delivery speed. That’s not how tipping is supposed to work.

But back to what I originally said, tipping is not typical for contract work. There is no other type of contract work where tipping 10-20% is expected other than delivery, ridehsare, and other similar new apps, so the apps created this trend for contract work, and it’s merely a way to pressure the customer to pay their workers so they don’t have to.

This is simply a company using legal distinctions to shift the blame. These delivery drivers should be employees of the company. Besides, tipping is not topical for traditional contractors. Any payment is agreed upon ahead of time in the contract, and payment is made in accordance with said contract. Tips never enter into it.

Not directly. They are mostly indoctrinated by Christians from the West. There is a common belief among Evangelical Christians that the Israeli state is a requirement (much like the Antichrist) for their god to rapture them all up to heaven and end the world through a fiery apocalypse.

I don’t honestly know his opinions on the matter, but politically, he has used Zionist language as well as anti-Zionist language depending on whichever is more convenient for him at the moment.

No. It seems you are assuming all Zionists are Jews, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Most Christian Nationalists are also Zionists.

And that is why he was ok with Russia blackmailing him with the pee pee tape.

What are temperate winds?

What I want to know is how Banksy got it back after it was noticed on display in 2005. Did the museum give it back or sell it or just throw it away? Something had to happen in order for Bansky to loan it back to the museum over a decade later.

You’re completely missing the point. Making money doesn’t change the legality. YouTube was threatened by the RIAA before they even started showing ads. Displaying an image from a copyrighted work on an AI platform is not much different technologically than Voyager or even Google Images displaying the same image, and both could also be interpreted as “feeding you unlicensed content from others.”

i didn’t mean to exclude that option but rather thought it to be redundant since the result is the same.

“We have seen that you can embed viruses in the cartridges. Through the cartridge, [the virus can] go to the printer, [and then] from the printer, go to the network.”

Either this is complete bullshit or HP is over-engineering completely unnecessary vulnerabilities into their hardware. There’s no reason why a dumb ink cartridge (no DRM) would need any ability to send data to the printer other than very short messages (like a few bytes at most), so it should not be possible for an ink cartridge to give the printer a virus unless this vulnerability is the direct result of the new DRM-tracking additions.

So HP is either malicious or incompetent, and regardless of which it is, I can’t see myself trusting another of their products ever again.

Uvlfberth was the Remington of their day.

And Huffman’s programming skills weren’t even that great because they quickly brought in Aaron Schwartz to make it all work, yet they always conveniently leave him off of the founders’ list.

The fact that it doesn’t work the same in every browser sounds a lot like anti-competitive fuckery.
