  • I guess I should clarify that I've never used DoorDash or Uber Eats, but for restaurants who have their own delivery people, it's almost always via someone on an electric bike where I live, so rain or snow is not fun for them.

  • well that sounds like unemployment insurance with more steps. rather than people buying stuff they don't need so that it can be delivered to keep someone in a job, and paying the apps the fees, remove the middleman.

  • Turns out hiring a cab for your pizza is expensive, who would have thought. Personally when ordering out, I always choose pickup, and fortunately can bike to most places to pick it up. If the weather is too shitty to bike, why would I want to put a delivery driver in those conditions.

    The alternative isn't an open platform, but maybe prioritizing 10 minute city in urban environments where you don't need a car to get/deliver everything you need

  • I would assume that the requests sent from the torrent client to download data are not factored into the Upload amount for the torrent. When they mean no upload, it would be that none of the data in the files they downloaded were shared with anyone else, making them a piece of shit leecher.

  • Is this summary AI generated, it's garbage and seems to contradict the linked article, which is about the same length. The way it's phrased makes it sound like the free tax filing is still offered, only with customer support now, and no online component. The article makes no mention of this.

  • Many of the soldiers are among North Korea’s best-trained special operations troops, but the Russians appear to have used them as foot soldiers, sending them forth in waves across fields studded with land mines to be mowed down by heavy Ukrainian fire.

    "You see, Ukrainians have a preset kill limit. Knowing their weakness, I sent wave after wave of my own men at them until they reached their limit and shut down."

  • Thank you! Not sure if the changes to image proxying in this version fixed things, but anecdotally seeing less failed thumbnails today. Before on Alexandrite, the thumbnails on image posts occasionally failed to load, until opening up the main post.
