DoorDash now warns you that your food might get cold if you don’t tip

This is barely related to tipping culture, this is a service bid. They just refuse to call it that.

Where do I go for hyperlocal updates from advocates in my area in subjects I'm engaged in? How do I get the word out about the projects I'm working on in those subjects? Calling me a fucking loser for staying somewhere that's the only place to do some things is not going to accomplish anything but make me think you don't know what you're talking about.

The Bakersfield to Merced* project, and the Central Valley portion is now estimated at $30bil; if you're going to rag on it get your facts right.

I'd love the ability to block entire instances from within the app, or hide if that API isn't available.

This building is being developed by the university on university-owned land, so the university police would be in charge of protecting university property.

There are certainly still scenarios where steel is the best option, but it's fairly niche these days imo. A long distance touring rig, or some real backcountry stuff, for instance. For road, I'd only go back to metal due to price concerns. For city riding, I don't ride carbon due to theft concerns.

Ah! I spent ages looking from the Instance page but didn't think to look in there. That'll do!

E27 100w incandescent bulbs were common in the US until the switch to LED. Looks like you can even still buy them, but at this price I'm guessing they're new old stock that's been hoarded to resell later: https://www.walmart.com/ip/GE-100-Watt-Basic-Light-Bulb-4-Pack-GE-41034-1710-lumen-A19/150144812
Buuut the European grid runs at 230V, while the American grid runs at 120V (240V enters the home with a +120V and a -120V rail, and most circuits are attached across one of those and a neutral, except for high power appliance circuits).
So our 100W bulbs are the equivalent of 50W European bulbs.
I'm glad everything's labeled in lumens now.
