here in canada where it freezes 17 months out of the year, 99.9% of the houses have shutoff valve inside the house that supplies the outside tap. id recommend turning on the outside tap, then turn off the valve inside.
overall - only a few years
constantly - just a few months on mint now. I find I get frustrated at some things that I believe should be easy, but seem super convoluted. I'm sure its the years of windows BS beat into me thats making me show my bias, but im learning. I want it on my main PC but figured I would learn on a junker hp dual core pc first. I'm shocked at the amount of things I can now do on it where as with windows, it was useless. Only thing stopping me from putting it on my main pc is gaming. Once I learn more and figure out a good destro for gaming, i plan to switch everything over.
but wouldnt lower numbers mean no one needed to fix & revamp a working OS?
higher numbers mean more fuckups than needed to be fixed until it was so broken there was no longer a way to code you way out, had to start right from the start!
ahh, i called it months ago, you kept posting stupid questions on purpose hoping one would get removed, then you would cry "the hypocrisy of it all, wont someone think of the children?"
ok maybe the second half of the quote was from something else, but damn...i called it.
i personally leave the dust cover on the top unless I'm playing something that will heat the pc up a bit more than normal, then I take it off to help with cooling. I have birds, so their dust and feathers seem to migrate to my pc, so normally I just leave it on at all times.
aparently i cannot upload a pic in the reply, might be a lemmy issue, might be me, i have been puffin lots today lol
but yeah, i get the 'violates tos' warning on every video, no matter the video. yet i swap over to my birds youtube and no issues at all. i dont even have to leave the page of that video, literally just swap accounts. I can still upload content to that account, but i cant even view my own videos while on that account.
Id be happy to screen record, post it to my birds youtube and show you what i mean.
so I wait outside for them when I see they’re pretty close on the GPS
You are the kind of person who made my life easier when I was a driver, so on behalf of the good drivers out there, thank you for that.
I dont understand how the drivers today are getting away with half what they do, unless told otherwise, I always go right to the front door.
30min detour with my food because they’re juggling apps
This is against the TOS for the drivers, while on one app, you cannot run another. zero enforcement tho, the apps make more money that way, the customer is the least of their worries.
depending on the changes since i stopped delivering for the apps, no we cant see the special instructions before we decide to take the trip. One app would only tell you where you are picking up, and how much you would make (including tip) for that trip. Thats all, and based off that we choose to pick up the trip or not. Now most apps will punish you if you refuse too many trips, and they doll out the gravy trips to those who have a high % acceptance rate, so refuse too many and you will only get shit trips. I believe the other app would tell me what area its going, but again, zero special instructions. Most of the apps I have used as well, dump the instructions at the bottom of the order, so we scroll through a page or 3, and its at the bottom. I myself got into the habit of checking every time.
I delivered food many many man....you get the idea, years ago, long before the delivery apps, and even before the interwebs. The short answer is: No, we/they are not supposed to do that.
I cannot be sure, as I quit because of asshats who cheat the system and screw over the customer. I understand why they do it, we stopped making money once the apps came into existence. Back in the day, I made $300+ after expenses on Valentine's Day, and now it be a good night if I made $100 before expenses. However the jerks will run multiple phones, accounts, and apps, at once. So they will pick up your order, head to McD's to wait for the order to be ready. Stop to deliver it, and if there is another pickup on the way to your house, guess what, they are stopping. They call you because it can/will/might save them a minute or two, added up over the night, that could amount to a couple extra deliveries.
Again, I'm only assuming by what I've seen on the other side of the app and the asshat drivers who have taken over, and I do NOT condone that practice at all.
im done after this, but dont matter how many accounts you have, someone paid by google to spew their propaganda would have to have a lot of accounts, on many platforms. Now i almost want to peek around and find out just what you are really up to
you are a fraud, i wont block you, but ill be ignoring you from now on
of course someone who is under contract is legally obligated to deny getting paid. maybe just a NDA, but either way
and dude, not even the kid i went to school with, who invented 'bumptop' and sold that shit to google, eats as much of the propaganda as you have and puked it up in such perfect form. just send me a link to your handler or whatever, I can make a much more convincing account. not looking to take over your job, but i can do it better
My 2 macaws mostly, but my conure is starting to like the cuddles
