  It’s important to require disclosure of the service fee. In my experience usually listed at the bottom of the menu. I know at least in some instances there are crowdsourced master lists of restaurants with hidden fees, and enforcement of disclosure requirements seems to have stepped up.

  I actually support phasing tips out for service fees, less dodgy and less influenced by cognitive biases from customers toward certain genders or ethnicities of staff.

  It’s server costs, same reason that discord ends calls with only one person after a few minutes.

  People tend to think of flightsimming and trainsimming as expensive, since compared to other games they kind of are, but I look at Warhammer, and even model trains and feel considerably less bad.

  That said model trains are cool, but I’d only want to do it as part of a club where I can split the cost with other people.

  Finished the first “season” of this and found it quite enjoyable. I’m familiar with both shows, and it’s decently respectful of both lores (though we’ll have to see how some of the pony lore comes in later).

  This proved to be one of the first fanfics I got properly interested in, thanks for the find.

  Me too. The thought of a shark never really crossed my mind, ever. But the jellyfish absolutely did.

  Sometimes, it still does.

  This is a decent analogy, but ignores the practicality of the situation.

  How exactly do you get the UK electorate to support this, there really isn’t any benefit to them, it’s just like throwing money into a bonfire. Besides it’s not like the UK economy is currently doing that well, and given that, it’s unrealistic for anyone to support the government just taking more money away intentionally. You’re basically begging for a far-right populist to come in just because they say this is a terrible idea, which is in and of itself the primary reason why it’s a terrible idea.

  The problem with this is that you assume that wood is the best fuel source for steam. Very quickly you would realize that coal is far more energy dense than just about anything except nuclear fission. Planting trees is still a good idea though, but wood as fuel is utter shite on any large application.

  Idk, they just don’t show up as links for me.

  I thought for a bit that I was defederated from there, but kbin.social stuff usually loads fine and I don’t think you can defederate individual communities. So perhaps worthy of a Memmy bug report.

  I’m using the Memmy app and those links don’t seem to work.
