  • I ordered my daughter a pizza, something I don't usually do. I got Domino's smallest size with two toppings. I got her cheese sticks and two sauces and tipped the driver 20%. $31.07.

  • I agree with this, they made some pretty poor choices and then explained them away by saying they had no choice. The bread was unnecessary, and yes I have kids too. A very picky toddler in fact. You never have to spend a ton on food, they brow beat you because it works, not because they won't actually eat anything else.

    Its still funny to me that kids are still tricking their parents into thinking they will starve to death if they don't get exactly the food they ask for.

    This poster wanted pizza, and had expectations of it that weren't met, but she didn't have to do it, it wasn't forced. I think even your example via delivery with little ceasars would make more sense. Or just don't buy pizza if there's only expensive pizza near you. Pizza has always been a pricey dinner, only offset by the quantity of food just barely.

    Around us, taco bell can be a great deal (and offers a vegan menu to an extent) as well but really this is more about not having enough time or know-how to reduce costs by cooking simple foods at home. A pack of taco tortillas, rice, beans, and vegetables to mix in is not expensive and makes a ton of food.

  • Both my PCs have nvidia cards, a 3080ti and a 970, and not run just fine with games and Linux. I dont quite understand the hate for nvidia cards. AMD cards must poop glitter or something too.

  • Greece introduces the six-day work week

  • Well I didn't know about any of that and that's all awful.

    Makes me upset healing people has been twisted so much. Shocking there's anyone left in the field under those conditions.

  • America’s housing crisis continues to worsen, renters are struggling more than homeowners, report says

    Jump

  • Well mortgages and rent costs are pretty close these days aren't they? Its the down payment and closing costs that price people out of buying a home then? Why not take away the down payment requirements so that renters could participate in the buying market. Maybe there can be deals where someone sells you there home for 1-2 years for 50% market rate but they have to give the house back at the end of the term?

    I think the point being made is that this landlord stuff almost rarely works out well these days so why not change?

  • There's very few cases where renting is the best option, and for that group they usually are well off enough to have options.

    Society is concerned with folks who can't afford to buy a home right now, even with the mortgage price being less than the cost to rent in some cases. That group has no other options, and because that group is expanding at the moment, its increasingly likely to be affected either personally or via those in your community.

  • But right now the situation is people who want to own homes being forced to rent, not people who want to rent being forced to buy a home.

  • Greece introduces the six-day work week

    Jump

  • America already permits forced unpaid overtime, especially on corporate positions. We just hide it better I guess?

    Oh and we also permit slave labor, provided the "slave" is also a criminal of some kind.

    I'm sure there's other examples but that's all I have at the moment.

  • Seems like a stop gap, is there supposed to be some larger plan to turn Greece around?

  • How's that any different that salary workers in the US that are exempt from OT protections and are required to work extra hours for free or else be subject to discipline, up to and including losing their job?

    A lot of modern western countries do the same stuff and just hide it better or target groups that won't speak out.

  • Tobacco-like warning label for social media sought by US surgeon general who asks Congress to act

    Jump

  • Different groups of people, and different sub groups within those, react to things in different ways, and I think most would argue that the group of people who responded in the opposite way rather than getting along were not a detriment to the whole movement.

    To your point specifically about California surgeon general warnings, quite a lot of people take them seriously, including myself. In most cases they aren't off the mark by much if at all.

  • Would you say its unfair to base pricing on any attribute of your customer/customer base? I haven't seen much discussion around how to fairly set prices for any kind of service/good. Seems most people agree they should make a profit of some kind, and I've heard some rough rules suggested but it almost seems like the logical conclusion is that prioritizing profit is always bad for society.

  • This company is the laughing stock of gaming right now

  • Well you aren't going to be able to pick out a trend with only testing two games. Its enough of a problem that I would double check where the save is before starting a game on gamepass.

    The last game I tried to move and failed was snowrunner I believe.

  • Why wouldn't high income areas be more expensive to serve?

    Don't they have to have local servers all around the world to even allow this instant-like transfer of videos for anyone to watch at anytime?

    I actually don't know the back end stuff so you might be able to explain this part.

    I think most people have accepted at least the final book will never happen, that dudes not living the healthiest life right now anyways.

  • The poster isnt able to explain themselves but Microsoft encrypts most of the game files for their gamepass games which prevents copy pasting the files elsewhere.

    You can move the files but they are useless for any other version, and I believe you can't even copy and paste from gamepass to gamepass either, but I can't say for sure on that.

    Jump

  • They absolutely are not and you are lucky you were able to get your save game out. The majority of games have their config and save files encrypted and are completely unusable as far as any other platform goes.

    There are some exceptions, mainly games that have official mod support tend to have areas you can access but the majority of others won't.

  • Tobacco-like warning label for social media sought by US surgeon general who asks Congress to act

    Jump

  • This won't affect tobacco in anyway. The only reason its in the conversation is because of the term "Tobacco-style label".

    Youll have to connect the dots better on how social media popup warnings would cause people to smoke more.
