I didn’t realize you’re the spokesperson for all normies, what an honor. Really though, it is a common sentiment, especially with pre-tipping. When they flip around that iPad and glare at you, there is definitely a sense that the probability of them spitting in your food is not 0% if you hit the no tip button.

Baristas post on their social media about giving non-tippers decaf all the time. If that’s what they are willing to share publicly to the entire world, imagine what people are willing to do secretly.

It’s not the same thing. Tipping is a psychological game that pits customers and servers against each other. It’s “how little can I tip before they tamper with my food” versus “how indebted can I make them feel before they reject it and leave without tipping”

Usually it’s rolled into the price of the product or service, which clearly nobody has a problem with.

I see them acting rudely to restaurant staff and grocery store staff often.

I agree with you completely but at the same time I have disdain for gig workers because they all seem to operate under an entirely different set of traffic laws and social conventions. At least where I live.

I will sooner implant a bullet before this proprietary bullshit

I have read this braindead take a thousand times at least. There is no country on Earth without random violence.

I live a country where metal can be sharpened and I assume you do too

I’m not trying to get stabbed in the neck. You should consider this risk too.

Ahoy

Lot of talk about Mozilla, but what about Firefox? I’m not using the CEO as my web browser.

Also my first thought

Third choice: Delete your account and never look back.

I always dissuade anyone from buying Intel for any purpose. A backdoored CPU undermines your security and privacy to an unacceptable degree.

Just curious, why a 5?

Just keep in mind that you could get addicted to drugs too. A lot of addicts were squares that came off prescribed medication and went straight to illegal drugs due to continued pain. A person’s likelihood to become addicted to drugs also has a lot to do with their genetics, it’s not really a moral failing like you seem to think it is. As for them shitting up the parks, littering, etc, yeah it sucks. Remember that they aren’t lucid nor do they perceive any reason to respect a society that doesn’t respect them.

I’m not proposing any specific action. I don’t know the solution. I’m just saying chill out and be less hateful.

Rust dev in emacs using rustic and lsp-mode is quite good.

My cyberpower UPS works well. There’s a service you can run to shut your computer down or whatever when it goes to battery power (check arch wiki) but it also works with GNOME (its displayed how a laptop battery would be displayed, but its labeled as a UPS) and it works well with NUT too.
