Your tip is "make another game and I'll buy it because the last one was good".

I bought your product and you want me to pay extra because it lived up to what it promised?

You want me to pay someone more for simply doing their job? If you aren't paying them enough, that they needs tips to survive, that seems like an employer underpaying. If it's tip or I fuck with your food or chase you down in the street... Then that's extortion.

"But with proper wages instead of tips the cost goes up." THE COST IS ALREADY UP BECAUSE OF THE TIP YOU IDIOT, except it isn't standardised or garunteed.

"But if there is no tips to incentivise people they won't give good service." What ever happened to do your job, get paid. Fuck it up and get fired.?

All it does is introduces stress between customer and staff. And causes a sense of entitlement to tips for things that don't need it at all. Why the fuck is a self-checkour machine asking for a tip!?

A tip should be for EXCEPTIONAL service. Not for the bare minimum.

Tipping culture can get fucked in the ass with a sideways chair.

It's a real reference.

"Inscribed on it is a complaint to Ea-nāṣir about a copper delivery of the incorrect grade and issues with another delivery"

As I understand it, there are a number of factors to Kick's reputation. But this is my perception so bits might be wrong.

Kick as a platform promotes gambling whether the streamers want to or not, and is known for negative attention is still attention style advertising (banned twitch steamers that now are on kick showing up at events sponsored by twitch, and making a fuss before and after being kicked out) And the majority of Kick streamers appear to have questionable social moral judgement, extreme right-wing political views, or were kicked off Twitch for persistent or gross breach of acceptable conduct.

It was intended as an alternative to Twitch, but rapidly gained a reputation as being the place where shady streamers go.

What a surprise, she's a streamer on Kick.

I came here to avoid Reddit.

Now I get their posts like non-interactive ads.

"supposed to"

Oopsie whoopsy, we accidentally made competing browsers disadvantaged.

Deliberate, disguised as accidental. Disgusting.

The Hamas attack was terrible. The IDF response has been far, far worse.

Holy shit. Just not "no" when it asks if you want to set up backup, and keep using what you already use.

It's less difficult than falling over.

This is the original "stop eating smashed avocado on toast" guy.

This guy need to improve the planet by being a lot less alive.

About 100% less should do the trick.

I live in his city and I will not hesitate to tip my $6.50 latte over his narcissistic noggin, should the opportunity arise.

Why the hell would I connect my TV to the internet? It's a display device.

You will take my Display Port/HDMI/RCA input and like it.

Forced return to office lost around 30% of our staff. Now over-work and a lack of staff replacement, because nobody wants the in-office job, mean that we are losing even more staff to stress and illness leave.

And suddenly all these contracted products and platforms, that are already being paid for (because nobody checks if staff resources are available in advance) are failing or stalling because there is no available staff or time to deploy them.

Not to mention how much time and efficiency is being lost by forcing the rest of us to operate in an office.
