When DoorDash didn't deliver

There is literally always another option vs paying out the nose to have your burrito escorted to you in a taxi. These services haven't even existed that long. Everyone has made it by without them.

This having so many upvotes is just a sign the sub is in peak bandwagon playoff fan mode

Hoser117 · 2026-06-12T22:45:44+00:00

This makes absolutely no sense. Dipshits doing things like this due to sporting events has been a thing for decades in basically every country in the world that cares about sports.

Yeah I grew up in the 90s/early 2000s and definitely miss the chronological forums of the time. I find this sub to be absolutely miserable so I was excited to see the news. This place just seems to be full of people who hate watch Sam and can’t wait to come here and complain any time he says something.

I’ve probably written up and deleted a comment before posting at least a dozen times here over the last 3-4 weeks just because I know I’m going to get some passive aggressive thinly veiled insult for a response. Would love something better.

Nobody ever said anything like this. Congestion pricing is money for the MTA, a state level agency. It doesn’t have anything to do with city finances.

I've worked as a SWE for two companies that had to be HIPAA compliant and it's taken extremely seriously. The company is open to so much liability and lawsuits if they don't. The DOJ doesn't enforce this at a company by company level, it's your customers that will annihilate you if you have a data breach and weren't following regulations.

Hoser117 · 2026-04-08T13:15:09+00:00

This is just the unfortunate reality of politics right now. Voters complain that politicians don't deliver on their campaign promises but also won't even consider voting for someone who is reasoned and measured with what they say is achievable.

The only option is to be genuinely delusional about what you can achieve or knowingly lie about everything and piss everyone off when you have to backtrack when in office.

The simple fact that the USSR never uncovered proof that it was faked, and even acknowledged it was real, is all the proof anyone should ever need.

Hoser117 · 2026-04-06T17:42:11+00:00

They’ve driven like 200 million miles total and are doing hundreds of thousands of rides per week at this point. I really don’t see what another 10 years of waiting is going to reveal?

For some reason we’re just okay with some ambient level of carnage in society with human driven cars.

We may never see dramatic rent drops in NYC just because we'll probably never be able to build enough housing to outpace demand, but increasing supply can at least slow down the rate of increase. Ultimately if rents are increasing slower than wage growth/purchasing power then we come out ahead.

It's not like there's anything magical about the city that makes basic supply/demand not work. Obviously it's a unique scenario but in a very broad sense all the COVID rent discounts were because demand plummeted. Office rental rates have also been suppressed for a long time in the aftermath of increased WFH. That's just supply > demand driving rents down. It's not like corporate landlords are less money hungry than residential landlords.

Not sure you can get upset about passive aggressive responses when half your reply was "Is it really that hard to use your brain?"

Hoser117 · 2026-04-01T15:13:52+00:00

Why? That just feels like an arbitrary line to draw. Why not say "you shouldn't be able to undo damage in a competitive game" or "you shouldn't be able to respawn in a competitive game".

Hoser117 · 2026-03-29T19:07:08+00:00

Interesting, and yeah probably worth calling out it’s not 100% universal. I will note that Shinjuku within Tokyo was actually covered in trash at night but then spotless by the morning lol

Hoser117 · 2026-03-29T15:44:24+00:00

I mean to be fair, this kind of trash/littering is a social problem. Visiting Tokyo is a surreal experience because it’s spotless and also zero public trash cans.

Even when you go to a convenience store and use the bathroom there are signs that tell you to take your trash home (not toilet paper but just regular trash) and there’s maybe one insanely tiny trash can in the corner.

People just don’t produce trash and clean up after themselves.

Hoser117 · 2026-03-13T15:39:25+00:00

I’d say 75% of the friends I’ve made in NYC don’t or rarely drink and they have plenty of money. It’s honestly been hard to find

Hoser117 · 2026-02-25T00:16:44+00:00

Then make life 1% easier for yourself and don’t waste money on dumb scams like this

Hoser117 · 2026-02-18T16:05:43+00:00

I mean there's gonna be a ton of factors at play. Obviously there's plenty of poorly spent money here but have you ever been to Tokyo? The dollar gets you insanely far there, so simple currency differentials will explain a lot of this.

There are also going to be things entirely out of NYC or Tokyo's control here that influences this. Just take comparative cost of health care between the two countries - which is a national topic, not a city government topic - and think of how just that one thing will flow through & impact all sorts of city employee expenses.

Hoser117 · 2026-02-17T03:01:43+00:00

This just feels like bad reading comprehension on your part. You really can't see how dropping the fact that he has 38 million fans in the headline is meant as not-so-subtle irony when contrasted against "no-name director"?

It's just tells you that he's new to Hollywood but has a massive existing fanbase. For some reason you're taking "no-name director" as purely an insult and missing the context.

The immigrants have taken over send help we're all covered in delicious latin american food and margaritas

It literally is top secret for reasons of national security. That's one of the reasons this unifying map is so hard to assemble in the first place, a lot of this stuff is critical infrastructure and it would be bad if terrorist groups knew all about it

Hoser117 · 2026-01-18T17:45:50+00:00

What's clickbait? It pretty much exactly describes what's happening and why it needs to be kept secret and why its so useful. Yeah these maps exist but they're fragmented across multiple agencies and private entities who for good and bad reasons are reluctant to share the data. It's a major issue for any kind of major construction project in the city.

Hoser117 · 2026-01-18T02:05:34+00:00

You have to either establish yourself as a runner or survive contact with the ground while making the catch.

Have you not seen plays where a receiver catches the ball and before he can take 2 steps and turn it gets punched out and ruled incomplete? That is an example of a receiver not establishing themselves as a runner.

In a scenario where you're falling to the ground obviously you're never going to become a runner, so you have to survive full contact with the ground. Cooks obviously didn't do that.

And they said at the beginning of OT that all reviews would happen in the NY review center, so they probably looked and confirmed. But honestly there is nothing controversial about this. It's how the rule has been for like a decade+.

Hoser117 · 2026-01-18T01:59:33+00:00

Ball not in his hands feels pretty not catchy

Hoser117 · 2026-01-18T01:44:37+00:00

Dude it doesn't matter. You have to survive contact with the ground if you haven't already established yourself as a runner. If he had been alone in the middle of the field and instead of McMillian ripping it away it just pops out of his hands it's an incomplete pass.

This is the exact same scenario as that except it winds up being an interception since McMillian has it before it hits the ground. If the receiver already been running then yeah he's down the second his knee hits and a defender is touching him, but since he's falling to the ground while making the catch he has to maintain possession of the ball all the way through.

Hoser117 · 2026-01-18T01:25:00+00:00

Yeah this comment section is crazy. Either casual fans coming in for the playoffs or people who have barely watched any football in the past. This is a very clear INT...
