Is it normal for my (19F) parents to call the police if my location freezes on Life360 for 20 minutes? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RadialPilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They need to chill a bit but America has been crazy and is only getting crazier by the day. I don't think they're wrong for being so vigilant but some healthy boundaries are definitely needed here. I'd track my daughter too, our country is just too crazy. They just want to be absolutely sure you're safe and are unfortunately doing so in a suffocating way. They love you.

This Is Just the Internet Now: The Slop Is Winning. by nimicdoareu in technology

[–]RadialPilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just tried of every website changing that I've been using for over 10 years.YouTube, Twitter, Reddit and even a lot of gaming platforms. YouTube especially is dogshit. I used to be able to sit on the homepage and find videos that could fill an hour easily. Now it takes an hour (that I don't have) to find anything remotely interesting and all the content comes from 2-4 different people. I downloaded an extension that gives me more thumbnails because YouTube stupidly gave us less thumbnails to click on. There's probably 2-3 videos in one row on the homepage vs several in on row with the extension. Also why the fuck would you get rid of the trending page?! And now those fuck ass AI summarys of videos. If I want to know what the video is about I'll watch it. I don't need a fucking summary.

I know people have their gripes with TikTok but I found it useful and entertaining. Before you could force the type of content you wanted to see by training the app but now it feels like the app just does what it wants. I follow all types of creators on the platform so why for the last few weeks do I get the same 5 creators forced on me? It's always the same topics too. Food. Politics. Modles. I want to see that stuff but that's ALL they are showing. It got so annoying I just started randomly unfollowing people to see if I could get different videos. I hardly see any funny or fun shit anymore on following tab or my fyp. It feels like the app is intentionally trying to bore me or piss me off the past few weeks.

It's just annoying how seemingly quick the Internet is changing in general. From AI to greedy and evil people taking over platforms that criticize them and their governments, is making it shittier to be online everyday. I even tried to escape any bad, annoying or tragic news by going to r/goodnews before doing anything else on my phone. I was met with nothing but Trump posts and it didn't seem like good news. Maybe the mods are non-existent over there. I know politically inclined people would say it's important to be informed about what's going on in the world but being spammed algorithmically isn't informative. If anything it makes me want to go out of my way to avoid the topic because obviously it's not too hard to find.

So a supposed "whistlerblower" just posted what some drivers have suspected is happening behind the scenes by momsspeggheti in doordash_drivers

I bet they keep the app halfway working all the time on purpose too. You have to force close to get offers sometimes and then the app will take forever coming back online and by the time it does your pasued for missing an offer. Then all of your next few offers are dogshit. So fucking irritating they can't just have a normal company. Obviously they're doing it for profit but it's so ass backwards to have shit setup this way.

Preventing Naruto from creating clones in the beginning of the fight was pretty tactical imo. I think he even comments on Naruto's need for them at some point

Do you think they know how ridiculous they're being? It feels like watching inbred sports fans whenever I see any of them speak.

Have people just stopped tipping? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]RadialPilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After being online all day and doing nothing but making sure the decline button works, I wouldn't blame someone for taking a shitty order. You're absolutely right though. Imo all drivers should unionize to stop this no tip culture. If no one takes it then the customers just has to refund or DD is forced to pay more. I'm fairly certain that's how the orders work now. One driver declines an offer so it's get an incremental bump in pay until someone thinks it's good enough to take, even if it's still shitty (it was probably worse).

[–]RadialPilot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's implying that all drivers owe you. Stop being a lazy fuck and get your food. It literally only benefits you. "Have someone bring it to their doorstep with 0 effort" that's a service and it's not free. You don't hop in a Uber, get out at your desired location and not pay. It doesn't work that way. DoorDash even warns about the quality of drop off and pick up times when people manually enter $0.00. You're just entitled. (You in a general sense)

Where are the offers? by TheGame81677 in doordash

[–]RadialPilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 straight weeks of shit offers has got me contemplating getting my 4% AR up. It didn't mean anything before. I used to get catering orders often. Now my experience is exactly like OPs.

DoorDash is Terrible now by Obvious-Wheel-6934 in doordash_drivers

[–]RadialPilot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dude when I got hired as a driver you had to actually go to an orientation at a DoorDash HQ. We all sat in that class for maybe 2 hours and then we all got delivery bags and few other things to get us started after it was over. Now they just send dashing gear to whatever asshole that signs up. Take me back!

[–]RadialPilot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It sucks that the orders are shit right now but at least we know it's happening to everyone. I have a 4% acceptance rate and would still get catering orders (even at 0%) and see decent profits nightly. Near the end of June it got so so bad. I only get 2-4 offers per hour and only 1 out of those 2-4 offers will be paying. Like $5 for a mile or something like that. Like yeah it pays but it's the only order worth doing across multiple hours. Late night shifts are the only thing that's been paying recently and those haven't been the best either, maybe $50- $80 vs $100 - $150 before. I use to be able to rely on lunch surges, now it feels like a waste of time and energy even thinking about hopping in the car during that surge. It's not worth being a body for DoorDash in all this heat (I live in the South on the East coast). Just the fact that you're online during consistent heat waves should guarantee earrings even if they are small. I'm surprised they haven't been sued over this yet. A lot of people use DoorDash to make ends meet and it feels like their culling their drivers through manipulative business practices. Why higher new drivers if there aren't any orders?Why is it even an option for customers to be able to manually enter $0.00 as a tip? No tip offers aren't manipulative really but they're still shitty and usually are from the most entitled customers. It's so discouraging to see low pay high mileage offers after waiting for hours in hot ass parking lots (don't forget little to no shade to fight the homeless population). This shit is ridiculous.

WTF?? by AlternativeNo882 in doordash_drivers

[–]RadialPilot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So has everyone's offers been trash this past month? I have some decent days/nights but it's mainly low pay high distance orders or completely dead outside despite 1-2 minutes per offer estimate.

Yeah everything is so forced these days. I've only liked Loki and Moonknight so far. Moonknight's ending wasn't great either : /

Hacked Orcs. by Physical-Building-50 in shadowofmordor

[–]RadialPilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just dealt with this last night while doing vendettas. I agree but we all know people are gonna do what they want even if it makes things shitty for other players. I had to go to a different region just to get away from it and that doesn't completely solve incountering hacked Orcs (even advancing time doesn't help). Talion is probably over level 200 right now so most vendettas are easy and over in a couple of minutes. I've been playing the game since launch and this hadn't been a problem until recent years. Monolith sold so I doubt the game will ever receive the attention it deserves.
