recovery records are an essential feature for.... uh.... certain 'distribution methods' about which we are forbidden to speak of.

they're lying.

"it's slow. labor is too high"

"we've sent home everyone we can, boss"

"i know, let's lower prices on a #1 and #2 for a couple hours and stick a banner in the app"

crickets for 3 more hours, until dinner rush starts

yea. that won't work. the only way they're "lowering" prices during slow periods is if they jack up the menu across-the-board (ya know, even more than they have the last four years) first.

more like 6-3 liberal majority, and arguably even 8-1 with Thomas being the sole holdout.

this is also true. but thomas shouldn't even be there, either.

when i was a kid, drive-thru was 'new'. one place, instead of redoing the whole building to put in a drive-thru window and work area behind the counter, used a chain-driven basket to carry drive-thru orders that went up and over the dining area then down to a pick-up window.

8-year-old me thought that was just the coolest thing. they operated like that for a decade before finally rebuilding to reposition the building on the lot to better fit a drive-thru lane and pick-up windows.

scotus should be a 5-4 majority the other way right now.

"pull up to window 2 to pay the surg-arge applied after window 1"...

at the last window, "we need another $3.50 to give you your food"

this is pure greed. there won't be any lower prices.

if they were just after more traffic and lower prices were on the table as a way achieve that goal, they would have have said they were going to 'experiment' with 'new promotions' -- not 'dynamic pricing', a term which already is seen by most as being a bad thing

just add it to the pile

it took him hours to do this?

After attempting to sign in using a@a.com (for example) and inputting any old password string the installer pops up an error message saying “Oops, something went wrong.” Clicking the ‘Next’ button then allows you to add an offline user / password of your choice,

he's even dumber than i thought.

his head is so fucking swollen by his ego he can't even do a simple web search (which would have given the above workaround in a top result) or ask any of the three or four remaining on his IT staff for help.

don't forget to carry your No. 3 Robertson head non-slip screwdriver.

it's two-thirds of congress and three-quarters of the states.

but yea, that's the answer.

when i wanted bandwidth available 'elsewhere' (such as streaming or games on a different pc) but wanted to continue long transfers, used to neuter the lan adapter configuration on the system doing the transfers by setting it to 10baseT, full or half duplex for 10 or 5mbit max. that was back when my isp connection topped out at 15mbit. i didn't always use a program or an addon that had rate limiting, and that was my 'solution'.

that's great. most of us are more than a billion dollars short of a billion.

afaik, cellular is (still) not obligated to the same service standards as pots.

is there an app for that?

because 'everyone' might (and does) include people they've been programmed to hate.

still is, and always has been. and that's not a bad thing.

but not the stock market.

Fedora is often considered “the new Ubuntu” […]

no. it's not. and i've never, ever heard anyone say it is--until now.
