I was on memmy before as well
I use voyager, it’s a bit buggy in annoying ways but overall good, some images still don’t load. Thunder is also good, I use that as a backup to check things sometimes, images load a bit more consistently, but no idea about videos. Iirc that’s also android, so that’s fun.
I also have Avalon because it’s compatible with beehaw being a few versions behind, but haven’t used it enough to recommend or not.
Pretty sure they mean non-Americans who can’t vote in our elections.
lol no, silly, they don’t give you free money for that. That’s just the demographic they compare everything to as a baseline :)
It obviously depends on the establishment in question, but you get free shit for being a veteran, teacher, healthcare worker, firefighter or other emergency worker, stuff like that. Or a senior probably, they get tons of free shit, too.
I’ve been to a casino exactly one time in my life, and it was earlier this year. Went for the cheap hotel.
I did not spend any money at the casino, but I did get $15 free for being a certain demographic of new customer. I played that, won $158, cashed out and won’t ever do it again (unless I get more free money, anyway).
I’m sure what they wanted by giving me a win on the last $2 (it’s all controlled by cards, they know what my demographic is, and that people in it are likely to be depressed and on the poor side, and thus potential gambling addicts) was for me to keep playing to try to score more, but what it really did was point out dark patterns and make me wildly uncomfortable with the whole situation..
And this is why I’m sterile.
I don’t want to be here, and I sure as shit don’t want to do that to someone else.. plus I don’t want to take care of some miniature asshole version of myself; I’m bad enough to deal with.
It’s not a discount if you are expected to pay more to add a tip.
But dude, quit changing the subject, I’m not talking about people not tipping within the current system, never have been, and neither was the person you originally replied to. I’ve worked tipped positions, so I very much understand how they work.
So again, are you suggesting that if we do away with tipping, costs of food would increase by MORE than the present amount of a tip that gets tacked on? Because that’s the only way prices for the end consumer actually meaningfully raise. Most likely they will actually go down overall. Because again you have to pay the tip too.
You are really bad at reading comprehension btw. That, or you are a piss-poor troll and intentionally misrepresenting literally everything.. the option to be a leech is the customer, who in the present system can skip the tip. Like a leech.
Also, there aren’t any restaurants around me that scrapped tipping, not a single fucking one within at least an hour of where I live, so your suggestion is impossible for me and very privileged.
Are you suggesting that food prices will go up by more than the cost of the tip tacked on?
Because if not it’s really just more honest pricing, and the same (or reduced) impact on customers, but without having to do math or having the option of being a leech.
As someone in a swing state, I’d be ok with that. Make the US like the EU.
For one thing, every 4 years residents of swing states get relentlessly harassed and it fucking sucks. But also It’s so so much easier to make changes on a smaller local level without the influence of distant populations. Sure it would suck in some ways and for some states, but maybe if each state only had to convince a few thousand people to do better, rather than literally millions (presidential election, very demoralizing), swing states would be more left leaning.
And if not, well it would probably be a lot easier to move states than move countries, even if they were EU style countries.
I like how they both look vaguely uncomfortable, like they are trying not to acknowledge one another, when using it together.
It kinda looks like a game king cartridge, from the inside bits (can’t find a pic of the whole thing), but that’s from the early 2000s. I went through a list of older handhelds and that’s the closest entry. But importantly, that probably isn’t it.
What you have is probably a regional knock-off sort of thing, or something that was never popular/prominent enough to be added to the wiki page.
This is the handheld list I went through. I stopped at the DS, as I assume yours is considerably older than that. Some of the old systems only have a handful of games for them, so it’s possible it’s something that just wasn’t made in large numbers, but my bet is on super-generic-knockoff-gamebay/gamboy/toyboy/gamekid handheld system (jokey knockoff names not real things afaik), which are not listed with the actual non-knockoff systems. (I wasn’t able to find much about vintage knockoff/copy systems)

Food related patterns would be pretty strong indicators for me as well, I think.
I only eat after 4pm (sometimes only from 6-10 or so) and people comment when I actually eat earlier than that, especially breakfast. I almost never use condiments or salt (I’m on a very low sodium diet and have been most of my life; I don’t use salt outside of baking, and that’s half salt). Give my dopple unsalted fries and you’ll know right away.
Drinks would work well for me as well - coffee made a very specific way, or room temp water, mostly (I actively dislike cold and hot water).
Bdsm sub.
They take the pain but are in control of the situation (if done correctly).
