What a piece of shit.

Any punitive action for striking workers is immoral by definition of being an abuse of an uneven power gradient.

That's funny, because I usually tip between 15-20 bucks and they still deliver to the wrong address or turn up 40 minutes late 60% of the time.

Also, they don't respect road laws, ride mopeds in the bike lane and then try to hide behind "But the clock was ticking!!!!"

My building super caught one guy pissing in the stairwell a few months ago.

The job should be unionized, they should be required to have a license, insurance and clear identification should be required. They get paid reasonably, and they get to be accountable for their decisions on the road.

....Then the only people who will be complaining are buggers who are too lazy to cook their own meals.

I wish they'd give SteamVR on Linux a long overdue upgrade.

And by upgrade I mean "Make it look like it's a project which is even alive"

Progress happens one funeral at a time, and new generations need the space to grow and find themselves without the tutelage or control of the elderly. Even a lifespan of 200 years would be catastrophic socially - and probably physically, too.

It's been bad enough over the past forty years with leadership failure to move over and allow ideas that are better adapted to the reality of a changing planet. Humans typically gain political and financial power as they age, and this would result in a gerontocracy, as if we don't effectively have one already.

STALKER for that horror undercurrent, Deus Ex Mankind Divided probably has the best atmosphere of any game I've ever played and the fact the franchise was abandoned for that marvel brain-rot is a crying shame.

I'm sure they must be feeling a great sense of pride and accomplishment.

I've already decided it is, so I don't care what they say. I also refuse to purchase games with digital restrictions management like this - franky, these days I have better things to do with my time.

Being stuck on ROCm and also having an allergy to the reams of garbage python throws out when it doesn't work.. I'm still on the launchpad.

That's a matter of perspective. It's new to new users and old to you. That doesn't make it any less irritating to wade through, but that's the curse of age.
