Their employer is treating them like a tipped employee, which is so embedded into society’s fabric that we have a separate tax code for it.
You not liking that is not any different from you liking a given law. You’re free to not participate, but expect there to be consequences, and one of those is for people to assume you’re intentionally being an asshole, not protesting a perceived injustice.
See people say this like it’s Black vernacular but dont recognize that it’s just urban vernacular. Urban vernacular changes frequently because there’s more people around. The internet adopts it quickly, and it spreads from there, as the actual initial definition of a memetic concept.
There’s a reason society as a whole doesn’t co-opt rural Black vernacular, and it’s because it isn’t actually racially-based.
Right. The really early oughts, when trolling was still a real thing, were so radically different that it’s hard to explain to people these days
Hell way back in the day, 4chan was one of my go-to websites, before the joking and trolling on /b/ really wasn’t joking and trolling any more.
It’s pretty standard 4chan-NEET fare, for anyone who is wondering. Racism, homophobia, xenophobia, trad wives, and quasi-pro-nazi shit.
Not worth your time to check out. Small community of sad nerds.
IDDQD is a cheat for the original Doom, as a random fun-fact. God mode, iirc.
Unless you work at like, Goldman Sachs, this is basically never the case unless you want it to be.
Yes but it’s the most accessible dune quote.
Butlarian crusade
Butlerian Jihad, my dude. Hate to correct you, but the spice must flow.
an end date in 2192 makes them a bad retirement plan for anyone currently alive.
I can’t wait to retire when I’m 208 years old.
A fair take, if one I have a few caveats with. I would contend that AI artists, should such a thing truly emerge, are explicitly experts in pulling art from an AI that a layman cannot accomplish.
That being said, again, it is a fair take, and certainly influenced the copyright judgment.
Created by the artist. An artist using AI is no different than an artist using AfterEffects or other processing medium. Using your example, it’s essentially saying “Earth” made a beautiful picture and not the cameraman.
Without the human element manipulating the AI, the AI is presently worthless. If we ever create AGI that can create art on its own, then we have a real discussion on our hands.
Luddites who are mad that AI is beginning to show promise can hate all they want, but this is the reality.
I don’t really blame him
He bought a piece of convenience tech designed for a specific piece of software, when said convenience tech is totally unnecessary to the function of that software, then got mad that he needed the software
I am shocked that everyone in this thread isn’t roasting this dude nonstop. He’s an idiot.
The gig economy is less precarious for the people that choose it because it fits their schedule. That’s why they choose it. Jobs aren’t exactly hard to get right now - they’d do something else if they wanted to.
Also uber drivers don’t make less money than taxi drivers. On average, they make about the same.

The “labor laws” you reference only exist to give taxi companies monopolies and provide worse experiences for everyone involved
As a person with enough money, yes, I would love double my income.
It was the 50s they’d have been used to car adjustments. This was THE AGE for small- adjustment businesses
I’ve already been called a bot, twice, for what I thought were non-controversial, if unpopular, opinions.
I’d prefer not to be on the receiving end of a witch hunt, which I’m afraid a dedicated community may trend toward.
Public transit is better, but self-driving taxis are absolutely coming to every city in this country, which is great if you live in a city like mine that has little to no public transport infrastructure.
Also, automated taxis can service more rural areas, which is the key driver of lack of public transport in many “commuter cities.”
Luddites gonna Luddite, but this tech is coming, and it’s coming to logistics and taxis first.
Pandas only evolutionary advantage is being adorable. It is like cows being delicious - without that, they’d simply cease to be.
Holy duck I love pandas.
