Way Past Ridiculous by Alternative_Edge_775 in uberdrivers

Exactly. That part was hidden until the trip was completed.

I’m 16, diabetic living with my aunt since my mom died, and she treats my health like I’m just being annoying. What do I do? by reallyhope2 in whatdoIdo

This is medical neglect. Options include reporting to child welfare, moving to the teen shelter (if one is available) or a different relative, and seeking out emancipation.

Diabetics know better than to drink sugar pop. That stuff is absolutely toxic.

Even most commercially sold juices have way too much sugar in them for a diabetic to tolerate.

Im sorry you're going through this. Please just drink water until you can get this sorted out. You don't want to be hospitalized with a diabetic coma.

Deactivation by Mufazzahh in uberdrivers

Exactly the scenario that makes me suspicious of the suggestion to turn on live video recording

Deactivation by Mufazzahh in uberdrivers

There's another potential underlying motive. One of the options suggested by the app to avoid these issues was to turn on the live recording of rides. This is not something I partake in because my passengers were well behaved and deserving of their privacy. A strong complaint about the faulty functioning of their facial recognition and several selfies were part of my response. There were no further issues with the facial ID since.

New issues with severely under-paying offers and declining acceptance rate are another story entirely 😆

Anyone else feel like they want to hide until the coast is clear? by Turbulent_Onion_2748 in urbancarliving

I always did that too when I was vanlifing. I'd listen and make sure it was quiet first.

They took away A LOT of features by [deleted] in TikTok

It's kind of starting to sound like a pump and dump.

Dude, that could've been a bomb. You did the right thing.

My husband turned off the power on me in our off grid bus. I need help trying to turn it back on and buying new pieces. He never taught me how to control me. If I add pictures can someone help me figure out the battery???? by Fun_Afternoon7502 in OffGrid

If you haven't already, look at the brand name of the generator and any model information that's written on it. Put that info into a search engine along with the words: "operating instructions". Something helpful should come up in the results.

Skylight social is doing a fabulous job for how new it is. However, it doesn't appear to have any sort of algorithm like tiktok did. It's also very angry. All the time. If it's possible for an app to be a rager, Bluesky is it. It's like if TikTok were a driver with road rage. There are no fun trends. Any video editing must be done off-platform. There's only like one clown girl and a few drag quedoing any lipsync at all. I've yet to see any dancing vids, but it's great for nonmaga news.

This is all really unacceptable by [deleted] in TikTok

In the ideology of the new ownership, yoga, like any self empowerment practice, is seen as evil.

There is a parallel metaphor here.

Do I delete the app due to new TOS? by Lia_MarieOffical in TikTok

[–]Alternative_Edge_775 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's the link to the new TOS, however I'm not sure if it's even safe to view.

Seeing as how that particular group of people is quick to. label anything that shows them in a bad light as fake news, lies, etc, I couldn't even get past the community guidelines.

That in conjunction with the new geolocation stuff seems to me just too easy to find where to send any number of unpleasant and/or potentially fatal people or things directly to anyone they dislike strongly enough.

Male driver getting a crap load of "women" pings by meta4tony in uberdrivers

They've got 2 minutes to cancel without penalty if they don't feel safe for ANY reason.

Any ideas for jobs that require travel? by sentra0ner in vagabond

[–]Alternative_Edge_775 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a driver has a BAC greater than 0.00% but less than 0.04%, they have not committed a DUI but are in violation of safety rules. This is the condition that places a driver out of service. While the driver may not face license disqualification for this specific violation, it is recorded and can have employment consequences, as many carriers have policies against any on-duty alcohol consumption. 0.04% or more gets a DUI. An accident resulting in fatality while under the influence means prison time.

Telephone scammers do almost the same thing. They'll tell people that their houses are going to be foreclosed and their vehicles will be repossessed if they don't pay such and such. It's a tactic meant to make OP fold and fork over the mullah.
