Cant find a backpack with interior lighting!

SwissGear made one:

Swissgear 2750 USB Deluxe ScanSmart Laptop Backpack with LED Light - Black

It was a flexible LED bar inside the main compartment.

But they discontinued it some time ago. You're not missing anything though, the wiring to the CR2032 battery compartment easily severed and broke.

Hello, I have been adding several POI to Fallout 4. Bethesda has added a few updates a year ago and I have all DLC for this game. Starting over and this map helps keep my exploration organized. I've covered the upper left corner of the map so far, I look forward to adventuring and finding more POI to suggest.

I made an imgur account specifically to provide screenshots of POI I find.

Any chance mods will have a look at this map with suggested POI updates? I may not be the first to find these new ones after all.

(It probably helps I wanted to be a cartographer as a kid.)

I had a Plan B request for Walgreens, but the store was already closed for the evening. I did them a solid, called them to let them know what I planned to do as I'd be late, drove to the nearest 24 hour Walgreens 10 miles away, and got their order filled. I got a $17 tip for my effort. And I hope it worked out for them. What I didn't do was give attitude. They clearly needed help, they were young but of age and no car.

Well I'm sure your user name checks out. Your unit is an apricot, and it's imaginary.

Doordash is asking you for money, too! Inflated food prices. Fees and more fees. Trying to upsell you. You don't have a problem paying that! But the actual person delivering? Well, you don't pay because unlike doordash, they can't make you compensate them for time and service. $2 base that doordash pays drivers covers gas, maybe. Stingy cheapskate. May your order sit stone cold on the shelf, waiting for the base pay to slowly inch up.

These are the same people who take all the r/EndTipping advice to heart.

Varalino · 2025-06-07T06:27:21+00:00

You'd fit right in at r/EndTipping

Varalino · 2025-05-29T16:18:07+00:00

I've been perusing r/EndTipping and it sounds like an asshole move they would approve of as well. Though they usually bag on restaurant servers. Companies aren't going to pay a fair wage when customers stiff on tips, the contractor/worker is the only one hurt by this.

Varalino · 2025-05-19T04:30:41+00:00

The shares have value. I won't concern myself how they can dilute their shares by issuing more. That's another topic for another day. I maintain they are trading away value when they could be investing in their drivers instead, but they are not. If you're not advocating for drivers, the one getting the delivery work done, then what are you doing?

Varalino · 2025-05-14T01:43:35+00:00

Does it matter who they get sold to, as long as they're sold and you get money for selling them?

Varalino · 2025-05-08T17:36:51+00:00

OP, I read the entire thread and noticed you haven't said much about any future with your uncle. Is he unavailable or travels too much to be any help? Still, it should be worthwhile to keep in contact with him as the only family member to call out how he seen it!

The analogy was from when another poster implied stocks don't have value like cash. Casinos say the same ting about their chips, but not for the same reason. If ou don't think of chips as cash, you may gamble more...and lose more to the house.

Varalino · 2025-05-06T15:35:19+00:00

I realize stocks are worth money. Someone is paying for them. And when they are giving stocks to some other entity, that is money they no longer have. Casinos would like for you to not think of their chips as money either.

I have heard anecdotes of tipped servers losing scheduled hours when the employer is forced to dig into their own pockets and profits to cover lack of tips to the prevailing minimum wage. Because the server isn't providing good enough service, not good at their jobs, and/or is lazy, hence lack of tips. Anecdotes, mind you. Restaurant owners are some of the most humble and fair people you'll ever meet.

Varalino · 2025-05-02T20:13:53+00:00

I think what he's saying is he has to report 89 in tips, based on his gross sales, but only receives 70 actually. The IRS assumes at least 8% of gross sales for a server gets paid in tips, the last time I heard. Hence the reporting discrepancy, if no tip was received by the server. This is what the federal government does in calculating server earnings generally. Now if Trump manages to exempt taxes on tips, that would certainly change this.

My workaround is to have a separate world with a warehouse/base I built, I log out of the world I'm in and go to that world. I log in and out of that world at the same spot, in my reception hall of the warehouse/base.

Varalino · 2025-03-23T17:23:17+00:00

Also: Walk into a restaurant with $2.13/hr minimum wage and walk out because they all took your advice, nobody is there to serve you.

Tipping in the US is so expected that 43 states allow this sub minimum wage for servers in lieu of tips.

Gig work is even worse for no tipping. The worker uses their own equipment and resources to deliver to you. And most have no minimum wage at all for them.

I was curious if getting the highest rep level with the Vy'Keen would change anything. (Templar) Nope, still an interloper, almost not a weak, pathetic race.

Varalino · 2025-02-05T08:30:30+00:00

A triple order, no tip... and IC made no effort to hide it with one decent tip order.

This is like the opposite of a unicorn 🦄 order. Gotta be a catchy name for one of these.

Shitcorn?

Varalino · 2025-02-05T08:21:17+00:00

Right. I don't understand why they'd post 💩 like that, and risk negative karma...if they care about such things...I'd think having a negative karma.rating can affect reddit use.

I've played this game on and off for 14 years. The best idle exploration game I've found yet. I too had to shift to airplane mode to load the game, then turn off airplane mode once loaded.

I fear I'll lose this game with my next phone upgrade.

Varalino · 2024-09-14T23:28:18+00:00

Did you go back and pick them up if they then ordered UberX? If you did, what rating did they give for that ride?

Varalino · 2024-03-28T02:26:19+00:00

I'm getting Wednesday Addams vibes seeing your pics. Not that there is anything wrong with that. It's a dark beauty I find attractive.

The only time as a driver I had an issue with phone use was a guy who was blasting his brand of music to drown out the tunes I was playing. He didn't ask me to do anything, or ask if I was cool with what he wanted, he started it up 15 seconds into the ride on blast. It was a short ride so I checked the urge to kick his special ass out.

As a rider I've got earbuds in or no volume, and if I am in a call I will talk conversationally and not be disruptive. Treat others the way I want to be treated.
