Tipping

Well, they would be making the legal minimum wage in their area since their tipped wage does not meet or exceed minimum wage per hours worked. Still not a liveable wage, especially considering the amount of unclocked labor that occurs in the food service industry.

Steam Machine pricing announced (from $1049-$1428 USD), reservation lists open
Reply in thread
Kind of impossible when a company like Valve has hardware purchasing power which means RAM and NVME are bought at a less absurd price.
It's also worth mentioning that you can't really upgrade a Steam Machine down the line when it starts to feel underwhelming in a couple years, given its 8GB VRAM/RDNA3 architecture. I wouldn't say it's overpriced but I wouldn't say it offers much value either. It just has quirks (software & formfactor).

Ubisoft Co-Founder Claude Guillemot Dies In Plane Crash
Reply in thread
So the estimated 8781 people with the Guillemot name and others with the variations "Guilaume, Guillaume, Guilaum, Guillamauax, Guillemot, Guillaumie, Guillaumes, Guillaumaud, Guillaumaut, Guillaumard, Guillaumart, De Guillaume" are all evil slaver beneficiaries?
I just can't find anything else on the lineage or where the Ubi Guillamot-brothers' parents' wealth came from.

This is why baby shark blew up. You know what else babies like? Ice cream.
We've blown it wide open. Watch your backs and sleep with one eye open!

Am I doing irony right?
Imperial Japan was disgustingly evil and dropping nukes on people is disgustingly evil.
They are not mutually exclusive.
He himself was definitely not a victim of anything, however. Awful guy.

Lol, I don't know if there was any clean way to make Imperial Japan surrender without absolutely imploding. In hindsight the issue with nukes is much beyond the exploding part.

Millionaire big game hunter gored to death in ambush by "Black Death" buffalo
Asher was fatally injured in a sudden and unprovoked attack by an unwounded buffalo
Yeah, I'm sure it was unprovoked by the car full of people following it for hours.

Asking your favorite LLM to whisk up a comment to post is easier than thinking up a comment for yourself. However, it would be easier for you to simply not comment at all.
So, in the interest of ease and convenience, we ask you to not comment if all you have to say is an LLM regurgitation.
Thanks.

Nvidia CEO: Everybody should use AI. Society has no choice but to change. I used to play in the streets. When cars came along, you obviously can’t play in the streets now
Man, I didn't know they didn't have cars back in the 60s.

It's probably not reasonable to expect this to improve in 2026.
I typed "add or remove programs" which is verbatim the name of the shortcut, clicked enter, and it searched Bing for the phrase.
Windows search bar is useless.

UK police face backlash for handcuffing dying student stabbed by Sikh man
Nowak's family called his treatment by police "inhumane and degrading" but in a statement outside court, his father said his death should not be "used to create further division, hatred or tension."
A man who lost his son has more reason in the situation than a political figurehead... I'm not surprised but, still.

Apparently, Rocket League and Fall Guys are being ported to Fortnite. Both games currently work on Linux, but in the future, they may require playing through Fortnite

The Battle Royale portion is called Fortnite Battle Royale. The true original Fortnite was a sandbox defense game that is now known as Fortnite: Save the World. They are both accessible from the Fortnite lobby.
Very confusing.

on the male loneliness epidemic
Reply in thread
You are thinking about the actual meaning of the male loneliness epidemic, whereas many people online are thinking about the buzzword loneliness epidemic which has been peddled in manospheres as "women hate men so we can't get laid."
You're not stupid, you just can't see the bottom of the hole from all the way up here.

People are impressed that there are no ANALs, but considering that all ALANs are around the border, the only conscious decisions past that point were the four letters in the center.
It's not really that impressive.

You know that thing where stick someone in a latex sack and suck all the air out of it so it compresses them? I feel like she would be into that.

Good question
Greater intentionality in mundane things. Wanted to go somewhere? Mark it on the map. Photos? You only have so much film left. Trying to remember a phone number, address, passcode, note? 9 times out of 10, you'd write it down and carry it with you.
Smartphones are a technological miracle but we lost a lot of intention through the convenience, which has pros and cons.

What if you kept descending the stairs in anticipation of... more stairs? Would the stairs cease to manifest? And would this lead to the macguffin?
