Maybe this is a regional thing, but every pizza place that I’m aware of which delivers requires the delivery driver to use their personal vehicle… and does not reimburse for wear and tear.

There’s a reason for this, they want you to download the app because you’re paying for that coupon via primary access to your personal data. Dominos isn’t just a pizza company, for a long time now they have been a data broker too.
Which I guess isn’t surprising, everyone and their mother wants to be a data broker today. It’s a good reason not to install any apps from anyone though.
Have you seen the responses here? Paints a picture on why they felt the need to defend themselves.
I just take it as an opportunity to block people these days. “You gave your kid pizza so you’re a shit lazy parent and no mitigating factor will be considered” is a pretty clear indicator that they don’t need any openings into my attention span lol.
It’s crazy that you went way out of your way to placate the internet assholes and they still found something to be insufferable about.
It’s not even a definite cockup, because being a large data provider means you are constantly under attack by intelligent, knowledgeable people intent on getting in. It’s surprising that it doesn’t happen far more often.
The real problem is that all this is being stored in the first place.
Sure, because it logically follows that the troll here is the “I had an irritating and unexpected behavior on windows” person, not the “Linux users are troglodytes” person.
FWIW, windows also did this to me as a part of the “oh god please oh please use Bing search on Edge” campaign.
I’m not sure how you messed up, because I was able to not blame the user for decisions made on their behalf without their consent, and I too saw this post.
A device that can do all of the things a phone can do without needing to find and install apps, that can learn from your usage patterns in effective and practical ways, and is unobtrusive to wear all the time sounds pretty fucking cool to me.
That is the promised future that AI devices are selling; I thought I was pretty clear that this device was never going to deliver on it.
Tribespeople became so addicted that Marubo leaders, fearing that history and culture — which is passed down orally — could be lost forever, they have now limited access to the internet for two hours each morning, five hours each evening, and all day Sunday.
That is still so much internet, we would probably all be healthier following that guideline.
I think it would be really cool if it worked like they wanted us to believe it would. Like, it could be one of those “change the way we live our day to day lives” events to the like of of smartphones becoming mainstream.
This device was never going to live up to that or get anywhere close to it, but I can’t blame people for really wanting to believe.
This just in: intentionally misrepresenting something has a 100% chance of it being misrepresented.
Let’s try again:
I had a setup that turned on the action camera when I put my thumb on the steam decks left stick, so I was always in normal mode unless I was actively looking around or moving.
It was pretty natural and the best experience I came up with, but I still felt like it was a compromise I was frustrated to have to make.
I set up a pretty workable controller config that I played with for like two months, but even with many hours invested in fine tuning it I just felt like I was fighting the game’s UI and I gave up.
What’s really frustrating is that the game is totally playable with a controller. ANet just needs to update the menus and it would be a fantastic experience.
If we’ve just met, not at all.
If we’ve been best friends for 10 years, that would sting a little.
It’s a sad time to be alive when people genuinely believe that being openly hostile and combative is the same thing as constructive criticism.
Banning seems totally reasonable to me. Nobody is obligated to put up with that shit.
Physical media today isn’t really much better though, increasingly frequently all a disk gets you is a license to activate a digital copy anyways, with a “must be online for first play” requirement.
Learning to work the clutch and feel the friction zone is a more difficult skill than some want to admit.
Learning to drive a motorcycle was a bit overwhelming, I remember my instructor talking about applying the brakes with right hand and foot while disengaging the clutch with the left hand and downshifting with the left foot… and thinking “how the hell is anyone supposed to keep track of all that!”
I do miss my stick shift though, it was more fun to drive even if less practical.
Ugh I wanted one of these so fucking badly when I was a kid.
Fuck them and their philosophically similar but marginally divergent opinions.
