World News@lemmy.world•World Cup fans frustrated by 'confusing and expensive' tipping culture in USEnglish
21·5 days agoKeller said he’s changed the system so customers with reservations have to pre-pay for drinks, including a service charge. “It’s just to protect our staff,” he said.
Protect your staff by paying them ffs.
If tips combined with wages do not reach the state minimum of $7.25, the employer must make up the difference. “If they don’t receive any tips, it’s impossible to survive in the service industry,” Thurnher said.
If your minimum wage is lower than a living wage, your system sucks.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Why I moved my Plex library to Jellyfin after 14 yearsEnglish
1·25 days agoa random collection of NVMEs, SSDs and HDDs in my desktop PC, totallying about 12TB-ish I think. That’s for TV and films, I keep my music in navidrome since Jellyfin has (used to have?) serious issues streaming music, in particular only ever being able to play the first track of an album, no matter what the client.

Technology@lemmy.world•"Nobody's making games for the retired people" – The growing yet underserved market for grey gamersEnglish
9·27 days agoI mean I’m early 50s, so a bit below one of their thresholds, but still in the “older gamers, 40, 50, 60…” bracket used elsewhere in that article.
I’m not sure what’s underserved. There are shitloads of games out there that I’m happy to play. Sure, I’ll nostaglia myself into a coma playing Infocom games in bed on my laptop. But I’ll also sink hours into a good story or walking sim, the single-player campaigns of an FPS, a puzzle game or hell, I’ll keep the kids off my lawn in Fortnite and have fun making them cry. How am I underserved?

Games@lemmy.world•What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ??English
1·1 month agoI thought it was awful. The graphics and the 2d textures looked weird and the movement was absurd. It was unplayable. UT, on the other hand, was fantastic.
There was a brief fascination with gmail-as-a-drive when it came out and offered people 1GB of storage. I remember someone wrote a driver that cut your data up and stored it as email attachments.

Yeah, I tried it for a bit. It gives you coloured autocompletes for things in your history but you accept them with right-arrow rather than tab as well, which is a weird choice, and ctrl-r is still faster. It’s very much a day-to-day user’s experience rather than a scripting shell, I think people stick with others in their shebangs.
I’m on a vpn posting this comment.
Fish has a bunch or weirdness if you’re used to other shells for things like substitution, and shortcuts like $_ don’t work afaik.

1·2 months agoPower usage? Both systems should be doing basically nothing unless they’re re-indexing - which is generally done on-demand. I can understand using up a bit of memory for the basic service and an imperceptible amount of CPU time, but why would it be using more power?

4·2 months agoI quite like that people ask simple questions like this. Sure, it could have been looked up really quickly, but it adds to the overall thread here. People reading this with no prior knowledge can browse through the comments and absorb more information.


“US Warns” is like, “ChatGPT said”.
It might be true. But it has no credibility and might be full of shit.
