Free-for-all Friday

Thats a great idea imo. I’m not creative enough to come up with anything good lol

I delivered food many many man…you get the idea, years ago, long before the delivery apps, and even before the interwebs. The short answer is: No, we/they are not supposed to do that.

I cannot be sure, as I quit because of asshats who cheat the system and screw over the customer. I understand why they do it, we stopped making money once the apps came into existence. Back in the day, I made $300+ after expenses on Valentine’s Day, and now it be a good night if I made $100 before expenses. However the jerks will run multiple phones, accounts, and apps, at once. So they will pick up your order, head to McD’s to wait for the order to be ready. Stop to deliver it, and if there is another pickup on the way to your house, guess what, they are stopping. They call you because it can/will/might save them a minute or two, added up over the night, that could amount to a couple extra deliveries.

Again, I’m only assuming by what I’ve seen on the other side of the app and the asshat drivers who have taken over, and I do NOT condone that practice at all.

depending on the changes since i stopped delivering for the apps, no we cant see the special instructions before we decide to take the trip. One app would only tell you where you are picking up, and how much you would make (including tip) for that trip. Thats all, and based off that we choose to pick up the trip or not. Now most apps will punish you if you refuse too many trips, and they doll out the gravy trips to those who have a high % acceptance rate, so refuse too many and you will only get shit trips. I believe the other app would tell me what area its going, but again, zero special instructions. Most of the apps I have used as well, dump the instructions at the bottom of the order, so we scroll through a page or 3, and its at the bottom. I myself got into the habit of checking every time.

so I wait outside for them when I see they’re pretty close on the GPS

You are the kind of person who made my life easier when I was a driver, so on behalf of the good drivers out there, thank you for that. I dont understand how the drivers today are getting away with half what they do, unless told otherwise, I always go right to the front door.

30min detour with my food because they’re juggling apps

This is against the TOS for the drivers, while on one app, you cannot run another. zero enforcement tho, the apps make more money that way, the customer is the least of their worries.

two meme days a week

In short, no.

I made a post not too long ago outlining the rules for today. Asked for folks to save the memes till monday. Hopefully we dont get a tonne today. If so, I will address it a little more publicly

either you are paid by google to make accounts seem like real people behind them, and spread propaganda for google, or you are a young kid who has yet to grasp the reality of what google is telling you they do vs what they actually do.

Do you think the tobacco producers are spouting how great their product is at giving folks cancer? you must be too young to remember cigarette ads, and how 9 out of 10 Dr.'s recommend a particular brand of smokes.

Google wants your information, they want to sell you shit, that is all. They will make it easier to get that data, and easier to buy from them, but dont for one second think they give one ounce of a shit about you, or your life as long as you stay on their platform and spend money on them

look, im not trying to be a dick, honestly. but ive seen some of your posts here and there, and it really seems like you have a big hard on for google, like you capitalize the name and everything. someone under contract would do something like that, however auto correct will as well, but im on pc…so im bias. some of the other things you say…ok more how, but to me sounds like someone under contract.

yeah, i could be wrong and im sorry for being a dick about it. if thats the case, you should have a look as some of the evil shit they have done, look at project dragonfly and tell me they have the users best interest at heart. I was a big google fan for many years, bought nexus phones before they changed name to pixel, was among the early adopters of gmail, (public) beta tested lots of shit. hell, i remember when the front page said “ad free”. so this isnt coming out of nowhere, i have reasons, and you should do a little research, but dont search it ON google

Edit: deleted the shortcut for ‘ad free’, was the wrong one. will update when/if i find it…maybe Mandela effect?

UncleBadTouch, 6 months ago

i forgot to mention that part…thanks

UncleBadTouch, 6 months ago

yeah, you are paid

dragonfly went ahead a year or so ago, its active now i believe.

pm me what you get to post this stuff, i could use some bucks and id be way more convincing

UncleBadTouch, 6 months ago

of course someone who is under contract is legally obligated to deny getting paid. maybe just a NDA, but either way

and dude, not even the kid i went to school with, who invented ‘bumptop’ and sold that shit to google, eats as much of the propaganda as you have and puked it up in such perfect form. just send me a link to your handler or whatever, I can make a much more convincing account. not looking to take over your job, but i can do it better

Edit: link to bumptop

UncleBadTouch, 6 months ago

im done after this, but dont matter how many accounts you have, someone paid by google to spew their propaganda would have to have a lot of accounts, on many platforms. Now i almost want to peek around and find out just what you are really up to

you are a fraud, i wont block you, but ill be ignoring you from now on

TempleOS

i assume causes they dont have their bigboy rapper pants on just yet. they leave it open to drop the ‘lil’ once they make it big and rebrand.

Rap is my preferred genre of music, and im just shooting in the dark here.

i stopped when seti@home ended, had a nice server running for them on and off for years. kinda miss it, but no longer have a server, just the stupid 42u rack…

UncleBadTouch, 6 months ago

i did it for years, you can limit how much the program uses of your computer (ex. limit max 30% cpu usage), so its not running full out all the time. I used it on my server for a long time too, they had it setup nice. it was one of the few programs that server ran that actually used all 32 cores on both processors.

UncleBadTouch, 6 months ago

yeah, i second that. get Devin first.

I have a pair that nest just behind me every year. Its awesome watching them hunt.

I’ll let my B&G macaws fight for me. However I do think the Peregrine is the best raptor in the world.

UncleBadTouch, 6 months ago

just gotta do it slowly, and not look like food

UncleBadTouch, 6 months ago

so what you actually “see” is a nose-free impression of your surroundings

yeah, i wish.

I was gifted a big fat bulbous beak from my parents, it’s half my vision!
