I’m in the process of investigating a sudden overheating issue in my PC and I see this. I have an ASUS ROG motherboard and a Ryzen CPU. I’m not a hardware expert at all, but now I’m wondering if this is relevant to my situation. I didn’t know about the ASUS/AMD issue.

Have you seen Elon? If there was such a thing as weight loss magic you know he would have used it.

Are you dealing with the ADHD meds shortage in the US too? I’m hoping it gets sorted out before I get fired.

When I learned some people can’t watch something with subtitles I was so confused, because ADHD auditory processing issues mean I really can’t hear without subtitles. If I don’t have subtitles on my mind wanders off without me and I have to keep rewinding because I missed something. I remember buying a ticket to Pan’s Labyrinth in theatres a long time ago and being baffled when the person in the ticket booth warned me that it had subtitles. Took waaaay too long for me to get diagnosed.

Pictured: Less cute

Either the melted cat in the donut car, or the puddle of sloths in the red one.

And they weren’t just going for the empty picture because it was new and interesting: Another group of bees trained to always choose the larger number tended to pick the nonzero image in this test.

I searched for more information about this picture, and found more from the photo shoot. Classic horror stars with cats. Pretty adorable.

UberEats still allows it, I believe. But people abuse that feature by “tip baiting” someone to take their order, then removing the tip after the driver has already spent the time, gas, and effort to deliver it. The driver could spend an hour on the order and only make $2.50 during that time, minus the cost of gas. Happens a lot with orders that are several miles away from the restaurant especially, because no one wants to pay enough to make the trip worth it for the driver.

As a former dasher myself, dashers are expecting that because it needs to be worth the time, cost of gas, and wear and tear on their car to even do the order.

Doordash only pays around $2.50 per order. If it’s a really bad one (long distance, a slow restaurant that takes up a lot of time, long driving distance) DoorDash might add a dollar or two to get someone to take it. If your food is cold, it’s probably because no one wanted to take your order because it wasn’t worth it, so you have to wait until a driver who doesn’t understand that they’re spending more money than they’re making takes a bad order. Sometimes the restaurant is slow or says an order is ready when it isn’t. The “tip” is pretty much the whole pay for the order. And if the tip is really good, sometimes DoorDash takes part of it without telling anyone.

Also, DoorDash doesn’t always show you the whole tip amount. There’s a note that says “the actual tip may be higher.” Usually it’s not, but they leave that “maybe” in there to bait you into acceptimg orders that cost more to deliver than you earn.

There are definitely some shitty drivers. But a lot of people don’t have a choice but to do gig jobs. People with disabilities who need to have flexible schedules because they don’t qualify for disability assistance and they can’t commit to a schedule because of random symptom flare ups. People with criminal records. People with social anxiety. Minorities. People learning English.

DoorDash is to blame here, not the drivers. They need to call it something other than a “tip.” The suggested “tip” amount should be based on the driving distance, not a percentage of the order cost. And they should pay drivers more out of the “service fees” they get for sitting back doing nothing and letting the app print money for them.

Let’s blame the right people here.

This one?

Hmm.

I do not.

There’s nothing in it, it’s just a case for holding contact lenses apparently.

That extra “s” is making this comment NSFW in a way that I don’t think you intended.

I support this but only if all the Seans agree that “Sean” rhymes with “bean” from now on.
