Depends on what you want to play. But overall, it doesn't matter much what you decide to play next. What matters is whether you're capable of developing appreciation of games. As Matthew Matosis nicely put recently, some games are harder to enjoy than others, and that doesn't mean they're less fun, just that you need a different frame of mind and expectations when approaching them. You might need context and outside information as well.

>Timesplitters
I played Timesplitters 2 when it came out and I have no idea why people like it. Very arcady mid-tier shooter.
Let me remind you that in the same year came Battlefield 1942, Morrowind and Hitman 2, so it wasnt a technical issue. Some damn good games came out that year and Timesplitters 2 is just bleh.

Found this upcoming game called Hypernet explorer. Don’t know where else to put it.

High tier arcady shooter. Time splitters 2 was and still is peak.

O Renan Santos é fundamental.

Uma pessoa que vota em Renan poderia votar no Bozo.

Uma pessoa que vota em Renan JAMAIS votaria no Lula.

Ele tira votos do Flavio B. Então torço para que ele vá bem. Um bom desempenho dele é derrota garantida do Flavio e quiçá uma vitória de Lula no primeiro turno.

Ir para o segundo turno é perigosíssimo. Sempre existe a chance de botarem no poder de novo a galera que assassinou 700 mil pessoas na pandemia e arquitetou o assassinato de opositores.

Por isso eles precisam ir o mais rápido para a lata do lixo.

>Uma pessoa que vota em Renan JAMAIS votaria no Lula.
Incorreto. A tática eleitoral do MBL no momento é tentar empurrar o Renan Santos como um liberal desenvolvimentista moderado. É o perfil eleitoral de quem votaria no Ciro e daria o braço a torcer pro Lula.
>Ir para o segundo turno é perigosíssimo.

3 year later bump. i finally got around to buying a uv5rm.

Im not licensed, but might get the ham license later, donno if I want to give the glowie fcc my info though.

So far I transmitted on FRS frequencies. This model lets you set it to narrowband and low power so its virtually indistinguishable from a frs radio anyways. For anyone else that wants to do it the key is to go into the menu and set the transmit power to low, frequency range to narrowband, disable push to talk id, disable squelch trail suppression, roger beep to off.

If you use the stock antenna, you can talk with friends nearby as you wont technically cause any illegal interference. If you stay moving, it wont matter anyways because the fcc aint gonna track shit especially if its low interference

This is supposed to be the AI company that's the least likely to be subsidising their prices btw.

The specialization in fake property has reached its ultimate contradiction in the manufacture of fake property to undermine all fake property.
Yet the post-industrial economies are still so intent on manufacture of this fake property that they can't realize they're destroying their only basis.
This chasing of super-profits in the long run is going to wipe out the profitability of the entire fake economy.
Is the relative productivity of the real economy really high enough to justify the difference in real wages?
I don't think so.

>>34037
40%+ of US GDP is from IP intensive industries, it's a paper tiger, literally paper.

Pangram 4.0 has almost completely solved the false positive problems with earlier AI detectors. It even works on slop code (but I doubt you'd need to use it for that since it's obvious).

False negatives are still a statistically significant thing though. But an incompetent fake getting through is orders of magnitude less worse than an innocent being accused of being a fraud.

Any leftist critique of the racialist religion of Judaism? Apart from Israel Shahak who was an anti-apartheid left-liberal activist that also campaigned against colonialism, I can’t think of any other polemicist that criticised Judaism, as the rest are either secular chuds or fundamentalist theists.

<In this provocative book, Benjamin Ginsberg examines the cycle of Jewish success and anti-Semitic attack throughout the history of the Diaspora, with a concentrated focus on the “special case” of America. For Ginsberg, the essential issue is not anti-Jewish feeling, but the conditions under which such sentiment is likely to be used in the political arena. The Fatal Embrace identifies the political dynamics that, historically, have set the stage for the persecution of Jews.

Thats how good psyop works though. People don't come for the propaganda, but they leave with at least their unconscious mind changed.

Honestly, I'd argue that the first three Modern Warfare games, Black Ops and even Infinite Warfare are appreciable because they portray all sides as being filled with violent psychos willing to kill for their cause. The only real difference is that the Americans win in the end, but they're never really presented as morally superior. The remakes on the other hand are frankly crap because they try to inject a sense of moral complexity, but it just doesn't work.

The Worldwide Maoist Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution in the future Global USSR (All the SSRs and SFSRs of the future Global USSR are shown in the Map I posted) will flatten the Socially Constructed Reactionary Gender Binary, with all Women forced to have extremely short hair (Pixie cut or shorter, with a Shaved head being the most Historically Progressive), and Dresses/Skirts and Makeup/Lipstick banned in order to liberate Women from the chains of Bourgeois Femininity/Domesticity, while all Western Business Suits and Traditional Religious Clothing are banned as well with everyone wearing Mandatory Mao Suits. The Worldwide flattening of the Reactionary Gender Binary will ironically cause a noticeable Global decline in Transgenders (less Men will desire to become Women once the Aesthetics of Bourgeois Femininity such as Long Hair, Dresses/Skirts, Makeup/Lipstick, are banned for Women) in the aftermath of the Global Destruction of Bourgeois Femininity/Domesticity, though Sex Changes will still be Free and Legal to anyone who wants one, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️ 💇‍♀️👩‍🦲!

Additionally, any Woman who keeps her Hair longer then a Pixie cut (a Very Short Bob cut “might” be tolerated only if it is not a millimeter below the Chin, but I could change my mind on this very quickly, so it would be strongly advised that all Women keep their Hair no longer then a Pixie cut), wears a Dress/Skirt, or uses Makeup/Lipstick, will have her Head completely Shaved by the Female (mostly Lesbian) International Red Guards, who will march her through the streets wearing a Dunce Cap, force her to attend Struggle Sessions, and put her in a Re-Education Camp, where she will be taught how to become a Liberated Socialist Woman and embrace the Immortal Science of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, the Highest Stage of Marxism, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️ 💇‍♀️👩‍🦲!

When a Woman gets her Hair Chopped/Shaved off She is symbolically breaking the Chains of Bourgeois Femininity/Domesticity that Long Hair on Women symbolizes in the Patriarchal Superstructure of the modern Capitalist and historical Feudal Modes of Production (then it would have been called Aristocratic Femininity), thus meaning that Forcing Women to have extremely Short Hair (Pixie cut or shorter, with a Shaved head being the most Historically Progressive), along with banning Dresses/Skirts and Makeup/Lipstick and making everyone wear Mandatory Mao suits is the only way to Flatten the Reactionary Patriarchal Gender Binary anPost too long.

I don't really see the point of something as cruel as conscription when you don't even need it anymore. In the future the Red Guards will be popular in schools and recruit youths and young adults (18-25) due to their cultural dominance, not due to conscription. I think it is a bad idea to have every single person in the ideological force, because they you include liberals and reactionaries in the force meant to combat them. So it should be voluntary and for active Communists only.

The reason to force the entire 18-year old population of the future Global USSR to join the International Red Guards is to both purge all 18-year olds of Fascist, Liberal, and Revisionist beliefs, in order to ensure the entire population embraces the Immortal Science of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, the highest stage of Marxism, and to ensure that every 18-year old Woman is purged of all vestiges of Bourgeois Femininity and the Reactionary Patriarchal Gender Binary, so that universal Female service in the International Red Guards between the ages of 18 and 20 will become a rite of passage to transform them into Liberated Socialist Women that uphold the Immortal Science of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, the highest stage of Marxism, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️ 💇‍♀️👩‍🦲!

Microsoft is the CIA. Pretty much all US big tech is. Windows is a global CIA mass surveillance program via monopoly capitalism. It’s completely impossible to make Windows secure, there’s no secret registry switch. The entire thing is compromised top to bottom, and under no circumstances should anyone consent to its use. Closed source spyware monopolies are a weapon of war against us by the bourgeois state.

Open source operating systems are software communism. If we’re not willing to build and use existing forms of technological sovereignty and anti-capitalism, then we’re probably not willing to do any other forms of communism either. I hate the “No ethical consumption under capitalism” mantra. How do we expect to get out of capitalism without building alternatives? I think a lot of leftists hope a revolution will happen then just magically replace all the corrupt and bourgeois components of consumerism, using the same uninvolved passive mechanisms.

Do we really believe a windows update will just drop after some election that restores our rights, trust, openness, privacy and dignity? It must be built and owned by the people.

it's not 1992 anymore and it's not about closed-source versus open-source anymore, we are in the era of linux-powered smartphones with hardware/cryptography-based anti-jailbreaking DRM, open-source software-as-a-service where the functionality is locked behind a remote server instead of a binary executable, the formerly open web being locked down behind appwalls and paywalls, mainstream open-source linux distros paywalling their source code and collecting user data for amazon, open-source web browsers collecting user data for google and banning adblockers and paywall bypass extensions, tvs and streaming boxes banning local media streaming clients, terrible corporate non-innovations like LLMs and Rust being shoved into linux and everything else with the aim of lowering the bar for software development and making programmers cheaper and more replaceable in exchange for more bloated mediocre inefficient code, unnecessary code bloat reaching such astronomical levels that nominally open-source projects effectively become closed-source because it is physically impossible for anyone but a tech company with billions of dollars to create a maintainable fork, etc. it was never compiled machine code that was the enemy of the digital commons; it was human beings, greedy stupid shitty human beings with lots of money and lots of terrible ideas. there can be no universal automatic failsafe to protect the commons from shitty human beings, they are infinitely creative when it comes to figuring out how to turn everything they touch into shit and they have all the money and the law is on their side, open-source and copyleft didn't do a god damn thing. and more importantly, it really doesn't matter what OS you choose to run on your computer or what companies you decide to boycott or any of these other weak performative attempts at civil disobedience, you still have to live in this world as it is and these little consumer choices don't make the slightest bit of difference, these companies already own the world and they already own your data and they don't need you, they are far beyond the point of caring about consumers, they don't even care about business clients anymore because they've already got them all locked into their platforms, their clientele now are entire nations, military contracts and state partnerships - you're not even an insect to these companies anymore, you're not even a bacterium, you're just nothing. run whatever OS you like, run windows or macos or linux Post too long.

>lowering the bar for software development and making programmers cheaper and more replaceable

anything higher than assembly lowers the bar for development and makes programmers cheaper and more replaceable. that's technological advancement.

that's also a good thing. no more whiteoid KraKKKa labor aristocrats writing 2 lines and getting triple digits per year. less exploitation by the imperial core.

because you're more likely to find a skilled low level / firmware developer in the global north rather than in the south. since institutions, jobs and economy allows it.

I'm all for it if company X outsources it's critical but high paying jobs to third world if Rust's borrow checker or [insert abstraction here] allows lower educated people to do the same job without putting the project in danger.

"lowering the bar …" is literally /g/speak.

there is a difference between structured low-level languages like c and these so-called "safe" languages like java or rust or go that push the idea that software can be a completely separate issue from the underlying hardware and that computer programming doesn't require knowing about how a computer works. these aren't technological innovations designed for writing better software for the benefit of humanity, they are business innovations designed for lowering the cost and agency of human laborers for the benefit of a few rich corporations, at the expense of producing shittier software. this isn't me trying to gatekeep or talk about "real programmers" or any of that /g/ bullshit, things like pointers and manual allocation and hardware optimizations are really not that difficult for people to figure out, anybody could learn this stuff especially nowadays with the internet. when i say "lowering the bar" i'm not talking about human beings becoming stupider, i'm talking about human labor being devalued and process knowledge being abolished which is a very real and pervasive phenomenon that exists in every kind of industry. business owners despise process knowledge, they don't like having workers who have knowledge inside their heads that they cannot own or control because that gives workers a certain degree of deference and leverage. a programmer who has developed their own unique methods and style for writing quality code is not an asset, they are a liability because they are difficult to replace, the company can't easily fire them because their code is too clever for a cheap replacement worker to easily understand without the original author explaining it to them and teaching them their methods, which would then empower the replacement worker with their own process knowledge. that's what all of these so-called "advancements" are about, making technology worse to make monopolies more powerful.

>>34051
Devaluing programming labour is not necessarily bad. The upshot of safer languages is that more people can write their own programs to their own ends. In an ideal world someone would make applescript with a touch more consistency and predictability and that would be the final word on anything but the most performance hungry applications. Its syntax and general style are already 90% of the ideal. A wise man can acquaint himself with it before the morning is over; even a stupid man can learn it in the space of ten days

Similarly it is not bad that the mass production of tools, online guides, furniture, etc, have devalued the work of the carpenter, or mass literacy all but obliterated the scribes. Much of the odd politics of programmers come from their self perception as an artisan elite and most of the most tolerable ones have realised they're on the unavoidable slip and slide to proletarianisation and need to embrace that by unionising rather than pinning all their hopes on reactionary politics.

>>34052
>The upshot of safer languages is that more people can write their own programs to their own ends.

let me say it again: understanding computers and programming, even low-level "unsafe" languages like c or assembly, is not wizardry, it's not even rocket science, literally anyone can do it. i mean for fucksake, programming used to be considered woman's work, like being a secretary or a stenographer, like half of the programming workforce in the 1950s-60s were suburban housewives with public school educations who had never touched or even seen a computer before in their lives. the average person is not a helpless idiot, computer nerds are not gifted or special, they just have a special interest that motivates them to study something that most people have no reason to care about. most people don't learn programming because they don't need to and they don't care about it and inventing a "safer" language isn't going to change that, especially a kitchen sink monstrosity like rust which is like c++ on steroids with its feature creep and syntactical clutter, you probably couldn't pick a worse language to introduce a beginner to programming. what rust and go really are are managerial languages, they don't really do anything new or revolutionary and they are aggressively promoted like corporate products and their real selling point is to make software development teams easier to manage, easier to regimentalize the work that they do so that companies can treat them as plug-in disposable modules, keep them on the payroll for a year or two and then blow them out and replace them so they don't have to be given raises or benefits or promotions, make it so that working in software development is like working in a mcdonalds restaurant or a ups warehouse. and LLMs are just the next phase of this, the new overhyped killer app that promises to eliminate these jobs altogether, and it's all because we live in a collapsing capitalist system dominated by huge monopolies with no competitors and no innovation and no vacant spaces in which to expand, nothing to do but cut costs and fire workers and enshittify their products.

there are two positions one can take on the issue of intellectual property, either you believe in it or you don't. either information is a material resource that can be governed and owned, or information is an immaterial resource that cannot be governed nor owned.

you can't criticize software vendors for restricting access to their source code and invoking intellectual property law to sue people who copy it, and then turn around and invent a copyleft license so you can do the exact same thing. you can't copy the source code from unix and emacs and violate their license to write unauthorized clones and then lock those clones behind your own license to stop others from doing whatever they want with "your" code.

words are not things and language is a means, not an end. the significance of a legal document is not in the text itself but in how the text is interpreted and enforced in a court of law. permissive licenses such as the bsd license can effectively be thought of public domain licenses because they contain no enforceable non-trivial restrictions that could conceivably ever warrant an actual court case, but copyleft licenses like the gpl can and have been involved in real courtroom cases and any civil litigation in any courtroom requires a specific plaintiff, and it cannot be "the people" as in a criminal case filed by the state. the plaintiffs in gpl violation cases are typically non-profit organizations like the free software foundation or the software freedom law center who act as legal representatives for one or more of the developers, and which developers get to be constituents and potential beneficiaries in the lawsuit is decided entirely at the discretion of whomever happens to be in the room when the lawsuit is first filed.

to illustrate the real-world ramifications of this, consider the busybox lawsuits filed against various companies by busybox developers erick anderson and rob landley represented by the software freedom law center. the cases were settled for undisclosed sums and these two developers got paid off, but none of the other hundreds of contributors to the busybox project, including the original authors bruce perens and dave cinege, were represented or given a share of the settlement or even contacted by the plaintiffs. so in practice, enforcement of the gpl does not really represent the open source community and all the contributors to a particular project, it only represents the tiny fraction of contributPost too long.

Why is that the fault of GPL specifically and not investors and the fbi seeing the start of the exodus towards linux and taking control of it in advance?

>>33995

because copyleft is just a form of copyright and just by staking the legal claim of copyright with the GPL you've already stepped over the line from public domain into private business because that's how the legal system is structured to handle these claims. by putting linux behind the GPL you've essentially legally declared linux to be a business entity governed by private intellectual property law and the entire business world will react accordingly, treating linux not as a neutral public resource but as a little fish trying to swim with the sharks, something they cannot ignore, something they have to get their hands on before anyone else does. the business world and the courts and judges and lawyers that govern it and the huge amounts of money thrown around to manipulate it, that whole world is just a cesspool and the only way to rise above it and have any integrity is to stay the hell out of it and not play that game at all, just make your shit free for everyone to do whatever they want with and if people copy your ideas and get rich off of them then just let them do it and don't be a greedy egotistical asshole who thinks the world owes you something just because you wrote some clever code or whatever.

My favourite job (apart from my current one which I actually enjoy) was doing recieving at a steel mill. Trucks would come loaded with steel slabs for the rollers. Drivers gave me their paperwork, I scanned the barcode, clicked a couple things on a computer, and sent them along. I sat alone in a trailer for 12 hours each shift doing this. No coworkers, drivers barely said anything apart from some small talk (most of them were Indian and didn't speak much English anyways). Usually there would be no trucks for the first few hours of the shift too, so I would usually just read a book. Some days would be slow with only 1 or 2 trucks an hour. Even on busy days I could obviously scan the paperwork faster than the trucks could be unloaded, so I'd usually have to signal them to wait for 20-30 minutes once enough had gone through. On two separate occasions I overslept and showed up an hour late with no consequences since there was nobody else there. Literally the chillest job I ever had.

Unpopular opinion: most of the Boruto hate is because of nostalgia bias.
All the criticism against Boruto are the same flaws found in Shippuden.

Power scaling? That was in Naruto.
People complaining about aliens and tech when they had that in Naruto

Also, Boruto has an interesting new cast of characters. They didn’t just rely on the main character.


But people wanna compare the new kids to their parents far too much.

The people who complain about Boruto focusing far too much on the main character are the same people who glaze Sasuke and Naruto, wanting them to be the main focus in the generational sequel.

Naruto focused primarily on the main character and his social interactions with his fellow shinobi.
Sasuke was the only other character to be given a good chunk of screen time other than Naruto.

Everyone else was cannon fodder for the plot

Honestly it's a waste, what with the diverse powers and characters like Stain and the recently defeated Yakuza. It's why I dropped the series outside

Baku go was supposed to be an asshole friend rather than a villain.
Also, Todoroki is more the proper analogue to Sasuke, being born in a perfectionist family and having clashed with the main character before finally seeing sense and becoming a good friend

>an asshole friend
What kind of asshole friend tells you to kill yourself and in the way its depicted too? Throughout the story he's a literal menace that gets treated as a joke outside of combat because "haha, angry dude is threatening to kill us again!" I posted it in the BnHA thread but the entire Bakugou-Deku relationship is like an abuser and a battered housewife, they're mostly toxic but the latter can't help but be drawn to the source of their pain. >>14478
Vegeta started off as a villain. Sasuke became a villain before he started doing really fucked up shit (and its in the context of a more violence-normalized society compared to BnHA).
>Todoroki
I can agree there, but the set up makes Bakugou to be the main rival to Deku in the same way Vegeta and Sasuke were for Goku and Naruto.

>>30353
Absolute garbage take
While some aspects like power creep and 'scaling' existed in Naruto, it was far more low-key and not absolute. Power alone rarely made a difference. Unique techniques or ways that power was applied mattered more overall.
> Boruto has an interesting new cast of characters. They didn’t just rely on the main character.
One, because Boruto is boring as fuck as a character from his name to his attitude to his appearance. Two, No. Just like in Naruto its the anime that expands on other characters more, except that the side-characters are all useless save for Sarada and Bort and the mary sue fanfic OCs that now populate the roster.
>eople who complain about Boruto focusing far too much on the main character are the same people who glaze Sasuke and Naruto, wanting them to be the main focus in the generational sequel.
Because the end of Naruto is them becoming literal demi-gods and Naruto achieving his idyllic dream of uniting the Shinobi world in peace, all retconned by Boruto and in a poor fashion.

Every time I open this thread when it bumps I regret it because it's just more pseudo-intellectual media illiteracy pretending to be a political analysis.

>because there's no real critique about it
What fucking critique is there to be had you nimrod? It's traumatic and fucked up and terrible for population demographics to have children go out and murder people their own age or older, or younger, but because human strife and the cycle of hatred are perpetual, people continue doing it, inflicting generational trauma onto the next set. It's not that fucking difficult to understand when we get how utilitarian things are from the very start. Naruto is a literal HUMAN SACRIFICE, it's what Jinchuriki means. Gaara is one too, suffering from his father's decision. Sasuke, Haku etc.
>The fascist deep state CIA part of Konoha does cause a lot of the conflict in the narrative, but this never leads to the title character to have any critique of the system
The deep state is just another part of the broader issue and basis of shinobi life founded in distrust and death. Konoha was founded with the idea of uniting people but was unable to completely realize the purpose of it, even if it reduced how bad things were (see Warring Clans era vs Nation states era) which itself is a reflection of Japanese and other countries histories, When these countries solidified things were imperfect and flawed, but in a grand scheme were an improvement over the previous system, i.e. socio-economic progression of dialectics.

Yes he does, just not how every edgy fanfic-writing teenager wanted him to. He confronts both the consequences and fundamentally leads to a change by breaking the cycle of self-perpetuation. It is MEANT to be idealistic because that's the point.

> the series handles the Uchiha clan—they’re massacred by their own government for fear of rebellion, and the story ultimately justifies it as a “necessary evil” for the stability of the village.
A privileged, "royal blood"-type clan (who are also the police force BTW) plans to murder and take over the village in a bloody coup that involves killing the Hokage and subjugating the other clans under themselves because they "the Uchiha" are superior with their Sharingan and whatnot. This isn't some grassroots revolution. This is essentially bourgs unhappy with other bourgs not stroking their ego enough and preparing to enact a fascist coup. The coup would have killed more shinobi and done more damage to the overall village and its people than simply eliminating the Uchiha clan, which is a extremely utilitarian but ultimately valid political position. They're not some peaceful city, it's a militaristic city-state that is in a tense cold war with others militaristic city states and the weaker they are the more likely the war turns hot and countless lives are lost fighting another Great War, which means even MORE Konoha people dying.
TL;DR: a bad peace with better than a "good" war more often than not.
>The main character praises Itachi straight up, after learning the truth.
He respects Itachi as an individual because he recognizes that the world he is in, is that twisted and because Itachi embodied what shinobi means in the old system; being a tool, putting aside subjective emotions and removing a threat to the village and its people, sacrificing himself and his family with unyielding commitment and with a plan to make sure that it was not in vain (to stop Madara).

I'm arguing this as someone that entirely dislikes the retcon of Itachi's reveal and making him into a tragic figure and not a cold-blooded mass-murderer, because I still recognize the idea it represents.

>haku, a boy that becomes trans
Haku didn't become trans nor was he ever implied to be. He doesn't use female pronouns or even wear definitively female clothing. Naruto thinks he's a girl because it's a common anime gag about traps which refers to crossdressers and bishounens, which reflects Japanese culture seeing androgynous, youthful traits as desirable.
>dies because he got groomed
That's the point you fucking retard, he dies because of the society he was born into, a society that fears and hates bloodline limits to the point that his own father tried to kill him, a society where being a shinobi is to be a living tool for whatever mission they are assigned, even if that means to forfeit their lives.
>Orochimaru, whose first appearance is literally impersonating a woman and kissing sasuke
Biting the shoulder is not a kiss you nimrod, it's a snake motif. Impersonating a woman has nothing to do with him being or not being gay, but him being a sneaky bastard able to hide in plain site. The 'woman' we see in the Forest of Death is quite androgynous and could pass for an effeminate man, it's not emphasized whatsoever.

It's this weird thing where traps/femboys/crossdressers or even just effeminate males in neutral clothing are now retroactively "trans rep" because some of the people who grew up watching the series became trans and project onto Haku, like they did for a myriad of other such characters.

For some reason old people are worse at identifying trans people in my experience. My boyfriend's (ftm) grandfather is suffering from memory loss, and he only knew his grandson as his kid granddaughter. When I was introduced by my bf's aunt to him ("he's Anon, a friend of the family"), he greeted me, then looked at my boyfriend, and asked "and who is this?" using male pronouns. Which would be a completely normal question except for the fact that he's presumed to be a woman in his daily life, so much so that when he was debating trans visibility at an indie film festival, the (very woke) people there assumed he was a woman.

it's clearly the consumer that's the problem. The management are aghast at how the public treats their workers. How could you expect somebody to work for free? Servers need tips to survive, not tipping them at least 100% is the financial equivalent of murder. It should come with jail time, because at least with real murder the victim doesn't suffer for a long time. Anybody tipping less than 120% is a monster.

>but you aren't getting tips because you don't serve, you deliver.
These fuckers try to get you to. They can send you texts in the middle of the job asking you to do things. Some family ordered like a dozen burgers from McDonalds and they were like:
>Can you make sure they aren't missing anything in the order? Last time they forgot a burger.
Despite the fact that McDicks gives the orders in tamper proof seals. I ain't opening it, I'm not going to ask the McDicks employees:
>Uhhhh, did you remember everything? As they hand me the sealed bag.
Either it's in the bag or not chief, at least when it comes to McDicks.

But you're right tho, that is one of the perks of the job is not having to interact with the customers usually. Well what about customer service workers? How come the guys at the customer service desk, or the hardware store employees and etc., how come they don't get tips?

I think waiters and waitresses manage to get tips because they've managed to get everyone to believe they're going to spit in your food. Delivery people could to, but they don't even tell you how much they tipped until after the trip(they give you a combined offer of base compensation from the app+tip.) But then again, servers can't spit in your food after the check comes and you don't tip. I guess people fear they will return to the same restaurant and get their food spat in whereas the deliveroo driver will never see them again.

If tip is mandatory then why is it not already in the bill? For the dumbest country in the world US sure loves doing math after dinner and a few drinks.

the lack of a labour movement in the restoration industry is the clear problem, or rather, the conditions for such an absence

working with food is like the most defining human social activity, its only a hellscape now because of capitalist alienation

the Zionist "Abundance" guys demand their serfs make them treats

The image presents a false dichotomy. Preparing food has been a social activity for most of human history and neither did it depend on the concept of dining, nor the conspicuous consumption of hobby cooks.
