  no, it works. so they’ll do it forever.

  the prevalence of iPads with 20,22,25 percent tips for a coffee is having me question the entire practice for sure.

  im also seeing reataurants operating server robots now. for those I only tip 10%.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As if the tip actually goes to the dashers.⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  correct on all parts, it pits dasher against customers. also these companies are still not profitable. that should tell you something.

  the truth is that the business model just doesn’t work. if you want to pay drivers actual living wages, delivery fees would have to be more than 20 dollars for each order.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As if the tip actually goes to the dashers.⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  you don’t know what you’re talking about do you. why did you even bother typing all this up if you don’t know shit.

  the drivers are paid more or less constant and they can see the total payout and mileage. an order that doesn’t have tip attached will slowly increase in payout until a driver takes it. so those orders tend to be slow.

  orders do get ignored all the time and people complain about cold food all the time too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As if the tip actually goes to the dashers.⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  no that is the truth, what it doesn’t tell you is that the drivers are paid like 2.50 to 3 bucks per delivery. so tips makes up the majority of their earnings at this point.

  actually, no. we know who he is, and he collaborates with local authorities to put up his art. and retains all rights to it of course.

  so he is actually very justified in feeling this way because he unironically greatly benefits from the commercial side of things.

  of course, he still wants us to think this is some counterculture shit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSA: the largest piracy community is blocked from lemmy.world⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  so a malicious instance/user that post child porn should just be able to infect as many instances as they want?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSA: the largest piracy community is blocked from lemmy.world⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean you won’t, they way it’s going to shake out is instances with similar values form nation-states and cut ties with other nation-states they dont agree with

  well probably see the emergence of meta-alliances soon that dictate the degree of separation of a blacklisted instance.
