Exactly. I quit a job where I was paid minimum plus tips, but it's not enough. The restaurant should pay more than minimum wage. Profits should be split, regardless of how tips are handled. They try to keep the cost of food at 30%, as

I think they were just trying to contribute to the discussion. Why assume a hostile position towards the comment?

Not sure why you're being downvoted. I entirely agree with everything you've said. For anyone not aware, Apple is extremely hostile to device longevity and 3rd party repair [1]. They have had issues with hinge design in MacBooks a

Every week I have another reason to be thankful that I didn't upgrade to iOS 11. But those bastards keep downloading the update to my phone and then telling my that I'm running low on free space. Cannot stand the way Apple treats

Lol how in 2017 our yardstick of bad performance is fans kicking in. If even a 2013 can't handle code from today, that's way too complex and computationally demanding.

4chan is a good alternative. It has engaging comment threads and diverse interests. Really nice community and new memes. It's like the bleeding edge of the internet. /s

and this speaks to the fundamental issue: governments intrude upon new freedoms and pure environments. There is no place free of control. What right does the government have to inject itself, ultimately resorting to violence, into a new eco

Try Adguard's DNS content blocker. I bought the pro version to control access with a custom VPN, and that enables it to filter your cellular traffic, not just wifi. The app runs a local VPN on your iPhone, and you can block analytics d

Whatever became of Jacob Appelbaum? Plenty of people have accused him of sexual assault, but it's been months since I've heard anything.

Exactly. Apple needs to separate UI and security releases until they can work out the bugs. So many issues with new updates and UI glitches.

Seems very inappropriate to even allow this. It would be like allowing the page to activate your flashlight. Wtf... shouldn't allow hardware access like that.

Snapchat is very confusing and poorly designed. 100% agree with you on the intuition part. But I don't think spectacles really has much influence on future of company; that is, Snapchat will fail or succeed for other reasons entirely.

This is why I didn't upgrade to iOS 11. I knew it would have dumb issues. My current 10.3.3 is still buggy with lock screen and Siri stuff.... they should have an option to only use security updates but keep everything else the same. N

Yelp is extremely hostile to web users on mobile and shoves their app at you, actively blocking mobile functionality. You have to spoof user agent or request desktop site to use their service. So after realizing how hostile they are, I stop
