I already don’t subscribe to Hulu, but I want to do my part to fight this.
Is there something I can do actively to cost them money?

Either the situation is worth the sacrifice or it isn’t. If you feel like you’re getting the short end of the stick, try taking into account the spiritual benefits of doing the right thing.
If that doesn’t tip the balance into feeling like you made the right choice, you probably made the wrong choice.
When one is actually clear about one’s values, and their relative position in one’s personal hierarchy, it relieves an enormous amount of existential stress.

You don’t need to do asshole actions to guard your money.
Someone with boundaries isn’t consequently an asshole.

People tend to experience and therefore express multiple emotions simultaneously.

If this kind of thing is bothering you regularly, then you probably need to update your definition of “asshole”.

Last job I worked had 38 hours per week of work, free parking, health insurance, and was a terrible company.

Amen. This Dunkin endangered a customer relationship over a triviality.
- Comment on Ordering coffee in the USA triggers me 2 days ago:
For Dunkin’ Donuts as such, that one interaction is a single cell in an enormous crystal of interactions. Dunkin should write a procedure for this particular case because it’s going to happen millions of times.
And their procedure, to keep those thousands of customers, should be to fill up the cup.

- Comment on Ordering coffee in the USA triggers me 2 days ago:
sick of everyone’s shit
This is exactly the problem with most retail employees: they treat everyone like the small fraction of scammers that exist.
If it were my coffee shop, I’d just spend the few cents to fill that cup and I wouldn’t treat it as a problem until a significant portion of people were obviously gaming the system.
Penny pinching just gives off the impression that one doesn’t care about one’s customers.
In my opinion, commerce is a platform upon which community takes place. The people are the point.

You think being an entrepreneur is more of a sure thing than finding an employer?

- Comment on The cost of college in USA makes no sense anymore 4 days ago:
I think this thread is pretty good evidence that not all college is helpful
- Comment on The cost of college in USA makes no sense anymore 4 days ago:
If only there was some way to know whether people without degrees were also getting jobs. Guess it’ll always be a mystery 🤷
- Comment on The cost of college in USA makes no sense anymore 4 days ago:
Well not in tech, no.
You don’t need a degree to work in tech. You need a degree to work in mechanical engineering, biotech, etc.
IT is not a good use of college IMO

And how do we know his first move wasn’t to try using the app to get the car to stop?

I’m an Uber driver. This is what I always tells my customers: if you don’t like the way I’m driving just literally open the car door while we’re in motion and I’ll end the ride immediately.
It’s a really good system. Makes a lot of sense.

It’s okay to admit that censorship is the last refuge of those who have no point.
- Comment on Marvel Rivals - Season 1 Trailer 1 week ago:
I was really disappointed with this game. I thought it would be a lot more 3D in its battles.
I was imagining something like the spider man games, but with all the Marvel characters in that kind of cityscape.
