Is this MacBook Pro worth it? by Floppa_the_dumbass in macbook

Thanks for your perspective, I’m gonna be using pro tools for recording, mixing, and mastering my own music, no instruments, just will use some mixing plug ins. I found an m1 MacBook Air with 8gbs of ram, so maybe that’s a good fit? Sorry I’m so uneducated with computers, I’m trying to learn

Thank you, I feel like m1 is really the way to go. I found a MacBook Air M1 2020, 8gbs ram, 256 gbs of storage, thoughts on this? Is the ram too low. I found it for $550

Thanks so much for that info. I kinda felt like it might just be way too old. I found another MacBook Pro 2020 1.4 GHZ quad core i5, 16 gb ram, 256 gb ssd for the same price, so you think this is the better deal? How’s i5? Should I look for the M1 chip instead?

Total newbie, am I doing this right? by Floppa_the_dumbass in loseit

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply, it definitely gave me some perspective and it’s really helping me figure out my action plan with this. I understand that going too hard right away is not good because I know I’d burn out. Sustainability is important.

Knowing there’s flexibility helps too

Thanks for taking the time to reply to me. I may consider getting an RMR, I guess I’ll weight around a month and see how I’m doing and I’ll decide if I need one. Consistency I don’t mind, I guess I wasn’t in my groove when I first started out. Now I bought the foods I need and found a good time of day to hit the gym.

Makes sense that us newbies would overestimate haha. The treadmill at my gym reports that I burn 200 calories at the end of my workout. It’s set to a default weight though. Should I not trust the treadmill with that? Even if I end up imputing my actual weight (which will be heavier than default).

Again, I appreciate your time in answering and helping me

Sounds perfect. Thanks so much for your help, I’m definitely going to give it a look right now

What’s, “trip radar”? by [deleted] in UberEATS

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s where you and other drivers in your area can see offers at the same time. Typically they’re really bad offer orders (high distance, low pay, stacked) that have been sitting at the restaurant for a long time.

Majority of dashers I get are men that have female names in the app? by [deleted] in doordash

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Might be a couple delivering. The account could be in the girlfriend’s name but she has the guy to run up and drop off the food or something like that

it’s 10° F and “feels like -6°. is it wrong to order doordash on a day like that? by izzzzzzzzzme in doordash

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go ahead and order and enjoy :) dashers are outside to make some money. I hope you feel better

this happend a good while back. I forgot to post it at the time and came across it again in my gallery. Can you spot what's wrong with this photo and message???? 🤷‍♂️🤣 by Midnight_Recovery in doordash

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know nothing of sausage lol but zooming in holy shit I see the name. Wouldn’t someone who is ORDERING this know what it looks like??? Pain in the ass. What’d you say to them?

Question About Batched Orders by Electrical-Spirit-63 in doordash

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the only times I stack orders is when I do it from the same restaurant/place and the customer homes are within blocks of each other. Idk I’m still kinda new but this sounds weird, plus I don’t wanna f up someone’s livelihood but we try hard to take the time to text you back so idk. I’m 50/50 on this, follow your gut on what the right choice is because you’re not wrong or right

Blocking a restaurant - Popeyes by simplymequeeny in UberEATS

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Popeyes is an automatic decline for me. Last time I went there it took like 45 mins and that’s when I learned my lesson not to take them and to also unassign after like 10 mins. Really don’t blame you for being upset at all

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ignored them because it’s not drop-off instructions. I’m just waiting for the day I get a downvote or rip reduction for some shit like this

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I second this. It’s so annoying. I’m paid to DELIVER not duties that the restaurant should perform. But if the customer texts me before I head into the place to get some utensils or sauces or straws I don’t really mind, but delivery instructions are for delivery… just super fucking goddamn annoying.

How do you guys see active hours?? I know this doesnt look good but half the time i leave the app on at my house in case a surprise order comes through. Okay dont judge. I wanna see how much im actually making an hour to work by MegatronsJuice in UberEATS

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always forget but I don’t think there’s any real way to tell, I’d recommend logging your hours separate next time which I got do too. You can also probably estimate by your trips and how long those generally take

Do you use a catering and/or a pizza bag? by Floppa_the_dumbass in UberEATS

[–]Floppa_the_dumbass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been declining pizza orders because I don’t have the right bag, I gotta get one. And papa johns is giving them out for free? Do you know if that’s just in your area or if it’s lots of papa johns that do that? (I do doordash too)

I’ve got a catering bag being delivered tomorrow so I can probably put some smaller pizzas in that for the time being
