World Cup tourists aren’t leaving tips — and restaurants are fighting back

Reply in thread

A question here: If "voting with your wallet" does not influence the restaurant... How can we do this??

In a system that is "used to this situation" why should something change, if everybody behaves the same. That's the first time America sees an outside perspective and the solution you propose is still: "let's keep it this way, otherwise we 'hurt' people". The people don't see that they are exploited... Maybe that's the "straw" they need?

Touchscreens Are Out, and Tactile Controls Are Back

Reply in thread

One of the biggest problems with touch is still that you have to take your eyes off the road (for quite some time). I have no issue if we are talking about some internal media center stuff and you still have some sort of haptic button on a steering wheel. But as soon as we are talking about AC, fans and everything you sometimes need to drive, I'm off.

How does it make you feel when people use LLMs like search engines and then hand you extruded text as though it is factual? Have you seen IRL or just on boards?

My boss uses it to convert 3 lines of text into multiple paragraphs of PR text for our newsletter and was excited about this... 2 or 3 weeks later he told me how cool it is that he can take a multi paragraph newsletter from other companies and summaries it into 3 sentences.... Let us burn through our energy grid for marketing... (Slow clap)

TIL about Wiki.js

Since I usually write MD files (I'm using obsidian) and I like the style I use 'Material for MkDocs'. Easy to use can be set up as docker container to compile static pages. And as I already said... Uses markdown aka. Easy to edit.

Switch to GEIST TOTEM

Reply in thread

I'm a sucker for low profile... The Kaihl choc v2 are working pretty good. No binding on these. Also the idea to build it with sockets (unlike the Ferris sweep) already payed off. I tried the 20 grams linear ones and had to switch to 50 grams. I sometimes pressed switches when simply resting my hands on the keyboard. But you can account that to user error. ;)
