Wouldn’t it make more sense for autopilot to brake and try to stop the car instead of just turning off and letting the car roll? If it’s certain enough that there will be an accident, just applying the brakes until there’s user override would make much more sense…

Am I a leech?

Technically, I guess so, you’re profiting just by owning the property. And having tenants exactly balancing out the costs of owning property.

Morally? Fuck no. What you’re doing you are doing to survive, not to live excessively.

it works with 50% of US voters tho… so he’s doing something right.

But they’re not? The first time you install/open the app it tells you that to be able to serve ads it has to track you to some extent. And if you get the paid version it doesn’t even load the apk for the ads

I prefer ‘second servant trump’

Some of that is “clever” accounting, the rest is that healthcare insurances don’t have bargaining power with the providers. In Germany the state insurance companies have collective bargaining power so that for example an ambulance ride costs 500€ instead of 15000.

and he can’t be elected again (barring him fucking our systems so severely that he manages to force a third term on us).

That’s easy, create a national crisis (massive inflation + riots) and have SCOTUS suspend the 22nd amendment

Should have just inherited some money ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

8.1 was actually a massive improvement though, I doubt they’re even capable of pulling that off for 11, much less willing. 11 is flawed deeply to the core, 8 was “only” flawed on the surface (UI etc.)

I’m sorry, you’re out of graphics.

As I said, specific “applications” :D

Some applications need very specific drivers and protocols that aren’t compatible with normal chips. Or you have to connect to a device via WiFi but still need internet. Also long range WiFi antennas are amazing.

Yeah, I totally get that there is a need for cheap power only cables, but why are there what feels like 30 different data “standards”. Just gimme power-only, data, and fast-data. And yeah, in 2 years there’ll be a faster data protocol, so what, that’s then fast-data24, fast-data26, etc. and manufacturers have to use a specific pictogram to label them according to the highest standard they fulfill.

I fully agree, some people just need the extra clarification though

At the store I’m at it’s handled pretty nice, we won’t stop anyone under a very low amount (single digit €) and above that it’s very dependent on your behaviour + how much you tried to steal, so you might just have to pay a 50€ fine without police involvement.

And only if the corporation is big enough. Don’t steal from your local corner store.

And also, don’t steal for profit.

I work at a hardware store, and if you steal some small shit like a file/screwdriver/whatever, you’re good. If I see you stealing 5k in light fixtures, tools, and batteries, I’ll get my bonus thank you very much.

Thank you

In Germany, parents cannot be held liable if their child under 12 (or 14?) damages illegally parked cars with their bike… Just a random fact of the day, nothing to do with your comment.

Lol

About the example by OTP of his issue that they remove the scales next to the coffee, in relation to being the store manager, considering how little commercial scales cost, while also acknowledging that different stores (franchised or not, size of company vs size of the store) can impact the managers ability to provide such improvements to their customers.

It depends on the size of the company in relation to the store. And yep, franchised means the owner has got to pay for improvements outside of the franchise contract. But still, our scales are accurate to 0.05g, which is overkill for food, and “only” around 7-10k per, if you only have to be accurate to 1g, they shouldn’t be more than 1-2k.
