You could have multiple cards; idk how it works for the US but maybe they cant see the card owner? So if a loyalty card is used with two credit cards it is useful to know it’s most likly the same family or even the same person?

Wild speculation

Why is this down voted ? Its an interesting video? No?

Its easier to adjust companies to follow an existing social/cultural norm than to change the cultural Norm and entire payment and taxation system for the food industry.

Kinda also means you have an awful culture, but on Lemmy I’d suspect everyone agrees with tipping culture being stupid.

Every religion is political. Every religion to some extend is about a ‘way to live life’, disregarding if any specific religion and therefore way is a ‘good’ way to live it. Doing so means you, and fellow people part of the same religion, will try to represent and enable the desired way of life; meaning you politically engage with diverse other groups of interest and people in society trying to justify and defend your way of life.

Doesn’t really matter if its rooted in a believe or not or in a deity or a fable that got out of hand.

The only difference between believing in Christian god or believing any other deity you can come up with is: social and law-acceptance in how long people have been claiming to do it.

Oh, and of course the level of acceptance of oush-back depends on your local religion and societal background

Making fun of people is never in fashion. Unless you are like under 10 years old and have no self awareness, compassion and/or critical thinking.

… Is she wearing those headphones backwards ?

Honestly his stuff is fucking fantastic. He calmy constructs his case and backs it up with data and sources.

When he gives his opinions he still tries to mention both sides; which sometimes makes me go ‘oh shit, fuck I fell for that…’

The stuff he did with his recent AI music poisoning is such an incredible feat of engineering for any one person, I am utterly impressed.

Was that the arrest for ‘doxxing police officers’?

I use proton for a lot of stuff. The calendar is useless IMO since their custom bridge doesn’t support linking anything else in. Same with contacts. For those two I use a self-hosted radicalev3 container, works like a charm.

Does someone have suggestions for what proton provides with its passmail? I think their implementation and usage experience with this entire reverse-email feature is pretty great and I dont want to give this anonymity up, selectively being able to send from those passmails is also a great feature that works really well in the rare case of getting something I need to reply to.

And it is accurate. Sadly missing the massive carbon footprint, involuntary sexual content depictions (generating unwanted porn), and ease-of-mass manipulation and opinion swaying.

Good try tho

… It’s 10 minutes of clearly spoken English, I worry about your attention span…

While what he says is broadly correct and I like that he makes it simple and understandable. I would like to add that: Companies aren’t ‘subject’ to this because they are forced by government. Companies actively lobbied for these laws so that they can say ‘the government forces us’ since the lobbying is WAY easier (and behind more closed doors) than actually implementing such a data harvesting tool as a single company.

His wording makes it sound like ‘big brother wants your data’ and while the gov profits immensely from this harvesting as well, the companties primarily got this thing going by lobbying for it, like meta lobbying for verification laws wayyy ahead of this implementation wave we are seeing.

Check the sources they cite.

Love the animation! Is it from a larger clip/show?

… Why is there such a blatant paint-edit on the bottom right where I would expect the original artist to have put his/her signature ?

I use radicale: https://radicale.org/v3.html in a docker container. Its really simple, and maybe not for you as you may be looking for browsing and editing

Man, whoever is a male gynocologist or a female urologist is gonna be really confused how they had a successfully business, with no or at least almost no customers…

I feel like this might sound unhealthy of me but: The angrier/more frustrated I get, the better. Angry isnt bad in my head, angry at $thing gets shit done because I do not want to see it or have it in my head anymore than necessary.

Though I enjoy once I start even if I hate $thing since I like computers/coding/learning.

This single thing got me through university. I dont want to do $thing -> not doing it keeps it on my mind -> once I have a single minute free I will make a plan where to begin the thing -> when I have a good chunk of the time I may need for it I do it just so the thing is finally gone.

Healthy? Up for debate. Can’t argue with the results tho…

Edit: I am typically a very jolly and happy Person ^^ there is just this research and writing stuff in uni where it feels like pleasing some arbitrary line the prof drew ._.
