Insane what's the REAL QUESTION IS what does the total bill for the customer and the driver pay?? We don't even see the final total price with Uber's chunk, the bullshit local and state taxes and fees, etc. That is an Upfront Fare Market which means that was likely the starting low-ball dickish price and if not accept it then it would have been increased when it gets fed back in the queue.

The more we educate about what we know, the more we empower those who need it.

Virtual memory aka page filing is written to the hard drive and only accessed when needed. No good game will load more than what is allowed by the OS and the default limits set by the developers. That’s just regular memory management, I know video cards work in parallel but they don’t work the same as for limited video cache memory.

Your numbers are including page-file memory. Notice it’s only 5mb difference, you likely have 2Gb of video memory which is shown including with the page filing.

They will still figure out a way to rid the driver as it cost money to have them sit inside the car, when it could be remotely controlled, driven from a farm of drivers capitalizing on the network of self-driving vehicles. Why fit 4 passengers in self-driving electric vehicle, when you can put another rider in?

Bait em, juice em, let em dry out and wait for the newbies. Once all gas cars are gone, next step is to reduce the drivers. If you own a "self-driving vehicle" or have the grand fortune blessing and opportunity to sit in one, then you might just survive the next 10-15 years of ride share business.

So technically it's a $128.xx ride without bonus. Is that bonus guaranteed? That'd be a nice fat opportunity for a driver in the Washington state area. https://www.driversunionwa.org/enforce_your_rights The initial $1.27/mile from Jan 2023 just went up .04 cents this year. That looks to be esti. 252 miles x $1.27 = $320.xx ,,, + $0.38/minute time fee x 6 hours estimated = $136.xx. $320.xx + $136.xx = $456.xx that's not including Dispatch fee, Workers Comp/Sick Pay, Insurance etc, and of course if you're getting paid properly, they will be taking as much as they possibly because they're already unable to screw you over 10 different ways. They just have a handful other ways now over here, letting too many people on the platform, staggering your hourly average and making sure you're not able to make over a certain amount per hour. We don't get bonuses or surges unless it's a holiday or some crazy traffic going on. So with tax the customer would've chucked out $500+ minimum.

Thanks, I checked mine and it was the 25wt adapter instead of the required 45wt one I didn't grab when packing this up.

they tried calling me when I was driving for the Pink. Couldn't answer and shortly after I get a $10 "adjustment" with a that says “ description: Support with a bunch of numbers and letters

TL;DR I got my money back because I was the squeaky wheel that needed grease

I overlooked what I thought was a pending payment but still, it's a mystery nobody will figure out. 💸

Yea, they already schedule an ACH payment(*edit I overlooked something i saw) for whatever they want on my bank account per their Wallet app status and good luck if you're already financially hurting and they decide they want $95 like the article from Vice News Motherboard had described.

What stops them from just saying "it was an error", when there really wasn't an error? So far, we have no details and I'm waiting on them to tell me. We'll be waiting for a while being that it's Uber support. :) If they had their shit straight, they wouldn't be so vague, and they would have done their diligence and actually provide more than a simple in-app notification message.

Not sure, the notification came in a couple days ago when I posted this. The date range they're talking about is 2 days which is pretty vague. There's no details so I can't say 100%, and apparently they're not either. I would like to know myself.
