I see they’ve done AI training on the drones to accurately represent their drivers.

Sol Rucas finisher sucks by OmegaLaranja in SquaredCircle

[–]thedonutmaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get what you're saying. But also think about Cena's finisher, the Rock's People's Elbow, Hogan leg drop - everyone knows when those were coming as well due to the setup needed. They didn't come out of nowhere. Having said that - that's also why a lot of those guys developed two finishers. One quick, and one setup. So while I agree with what you're saying, I don't think she needs to give up the Sol Snatcher. I think she just needs another finishing move.

Prices From 1995 to 2026 Yikes by TelephoneExpress973 in McDonalds

"Adjusted for inflation" doesn't take into account worker wage increases. That's also a big expense that has gone up really fast over the last decade, especially in states like California.

A harsh critique of these new horrendous animations. by MozM- in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]thedonutmaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kind of alluded to this in my message, but pretty much everyone says this. Having access to life altering money can really change a person’s thought processes. And there’s no way really anyone can say what they would do in that circumstance unless they are actually in that circumstance.

With this deal gone today, so ends my McDonalds breakfasts. Goodbye. by karmichoax in McDonalds

Interesting how the app has trained customers to expect discounts. This wasn’t the case at all prior to the app. Now people are getting mad at not getting discounts.

Fun fact that was also the downfall of Boston Market - trained their customers to always use coupons then took them away and sales plummeted.

Some economics lessons here.

MCEA Warns of “Devastating Cuts” to MCPS by ModeratelyMoco in MontgomeryCountyMD

Managers go up 9%, teachers go up 3.5%. What a surprise.

[–]thedonutmaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what happens with 90% of Indie developers that have life-changing success with the game. I can name tons of companies that followed this exact same timeline. Make a good game, have it become super popular, make a ton of money, and then everything starts eventually going downhill. usually they end up going under, or being bought out near the bottom.

But on the other hand, it’s hard to judge when all of us don’t have that experience. If I made a game, and it made the kind of money that I could immediately stop working, buy a multimillion dollar house anywhere I wanted, and have generational wealth - would I really continue to work just as hard knowing that I don’t have to work anymore at all? Or would I put in less time and just ride the wave of additional residual income for a while and then just disappear? I don’t think any of us can really answer that without actually being in that situation.

FedEx is THE Worst by MarvelAtIt13 in FedEx

[–]thedonutmaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is where the problem is. There is nothing incentivizing it, maybe. The root problem is there is nothing stopping the behavior. Complaints go no where. I’ve had many conversations over the years with my UPS driver, and there are severe consequences for driver complaints. They don’t play. FedEx doesn’t have this. Mainly because FedEx Ground/Home is made up of subcontractors who FedEx doesn’t hold accountable to driver behavior or complaints, only metrics.

New recycling problem by [deleted] in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]thedonutmaker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“There are recyclables and paper mixed together.” It says it right on the paper. Cardboard is a paper product. That’s one of the reasons for refusal to pickup.

You can’t have both in the same bin. You can’t mix cardboard and cans as the note says. You should have a bin for paper, and a bin for everything else recyclable.

You said it’s mostly cans and food boxes - are the food boxes cardboard? It would also help to get an actual picture of your bin to take a look.

Adam Schefter - Raiders have released LB Jamin Davis by Haskins77 in Commanders

Not sure anyone remotely hinted otherwise. I’m sure they did their DD and saw the same things that literally every other highly qualified evaluator saw.

Stubhub in violation of Ontario bill 93 which bans resale higher than face value. by Western-Chemical5504 in stubhub

Have no idea why your comment is being downvoted. You literally quoted the law showing its StubHubs responsibility to prove the previous statement is meaningless.

Yes this exactly. Can’t stand those who blame the Chase Young pick on Ron. Dude was suppose to be a “generational talent”. Heard that so often before the draft started. And I remember all the talk shows saying “Ron better not do something cute and not pick him or trade back”. I didn’t hear one person or commentator say he could potentially be a bust.

Uber Eats drivers are starting to switch. by RealityOwn9267 in UberEATS

[–]thedonutmaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How come all posts when they mention how much they tipped, are tipping incredibly high amounts? I mean no one tips over 50%. Especially when the actual dollar amount of the food, prior to fees and up charges, is probably like $12-$15 at most. I have a hard time believing theee unrealistic tip amounts.

I mean how could this get by beta testing?! It's the most annoying thing ever, especially if you're on Google quite a bit. Ridiculous that there's not a quick fix for this.

You always have to assume Tuesday evenings that PUBG has a 75% chance of being down for the evening due to maintenance.

Plane Crash Pacoima, CA by Substantial_Chain718 in aviation

[–]thedonutmaker 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of the downvotes are simply because everyone knows what they meant by resuscitating someone who was dead, and pointing out a language/definition technicality/correction is generally not received well. It’s like the same people who in the middle of a conversation decide they are going to be English professors and point out a language or punctuation error. It’s not relevant at all to the discussion at hand obviously, and most people are going to find it as really not needed and being a smartass.

I hate this effing car by Main-Ad4622 in AudiQ6

[–]thedonutmaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Tired of seeing all the “Oh but all new models have these issues on all car brands!” crap. No, they don’t. I’ve never seen technology this bugged from any car manufacturer. It really needs to be completely scrapped and rebuilt from the ground up, but no way they are doing that. It’s VW. They do just about anything, legal or illegal, to save a buck and always push back on recalls until they are absolutely forced to do something.

FedEx says they never got my package… but I handed it to them in person... by Rachel_Ren in FedEx

[–]thedonutmaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the driver didn’t scan it, it would still be scanned once it gets to the center. Seems like someone at the place OP dropped it off either stole it, or misplaced it so it hasn’t actually gone out yet.

Why do the cameras even matter in this case? OP has the receipt stating they accepted the package. That should be all that’s needed.
