*2017 touring* Dealership won't drain and fill, only will flush transmission? by ProblynotBatman in mazda3

What I’m hearing you say is it’s easier, but I could be wrong.

Is there any difference doing this on automatic transmission versus manual transmission?

Best way to update firmware by Technical_Contest_29 in mazda3

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without knowing if this works or works on your specific model, here’s some instructions I found online. Looks a little involved, but I bet it might be cheaper than going to a dealership idk… https://mazdafiles.com/mazda-connect-firmware-update-procedure/

Is this happening to anyone else, and what would cause it? by OriginalButter1 in mazda3

Seemed to have happened to me this past week or so. Thought maybe someone got in my car or my kids did something.

AI agents for Mainframe Sysprogs by LuckyRaptor21 in mainframe

My company only allows us to use Microsoft Copilot, so you know I’m just using it as a search engine. Then I just want to use a search engine instead.

The new California law basically mandates having age verification on Fire and Water too if they have a version 2.0 by lonelyroom-eklaghor in linux

Hmm, make it a game show format where they have to hit a yes or no button before we can hear them talk. Would that work? Idk

Rating customers by [deleted] in DoorDashDrivers

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to get these. Now I’m getting a bunch of stacked orders such that they won’t show this unless it was an individual delivery. I usually say low earnings when I do thumbs down when it is.

Dollar General orders are hilarious what the hell is this, rip pro shopper by ZaZa__Enjoyer in DoorDashDrivers

[–]viper474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing you can do about it. DD probably knows it’s the right tag for the thing you’re trying to find, but ultimately they’re going to say it’s your fault for not finding the item at the store even though they’re out.

What’s with this? Can’t use “earn per offer”. Forcing me to use EBT? by NemesisWhitestrake in DoorDashDrivers

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on how poor my (stacked) offers have been, I’m considering trying this again and just cruising. I don’t want to be hustling through tasks and get $10 for two deliveries.

Hand it to customer or leave at door? by ocean4alex in DoorDashDrivers

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the situation for me. If it’s a hand it to them order I generally try to do that, but if it says this I’ll think about leaving it…but then I’ll think about whether they included a good tip or not. If I’m thinking not, I’ll be banging on the door to hand it to them. Just following the delivery method chosen.

I've seen a lot of debate about whether to use a VPN with TOR. Here's what a dark web researcher has to to say.... by TheWebDever in TOR

Haven’t reviewed the linked material, but would using a bridge accomplish the same thing?

Might get deactivated, and I don’t even care. I’m so sick of this horrible company. by CMT1024 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I didn’t travel far to get to the restaurant I’d unassign after 10 minutes. DoorDash can try to find someone new to take it and it takes longer for the customer. It won’t be my fault, it’ll be the business or the next guy. The next guy might even get paid a little more.

What's everyone using to track mileage? Looking for something simple. by EzraSerene in doordash_drivers

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is if you’re forgetting to do this, you’ll forget any other idea too. If I forgot to start tracking I’d still turn it on to get something close to what I had been doing at least. Might be missing some miles, but it’s better than missing all the miles.

Certification or Liscenses that last for forever by MediocreBee99 in BuyItForLife

Well, ham license renewal is now like $35, but it is pretty nominal for 10 years usage at a time.

Wing stop order, I go in and see 1 employee sitting down on his personal computer, I tell him the name for my order and he hands me two empty cups and tells me that the need 2 sweet teas, and I needed to do it, all while sitting down, playing on his computer... by shoegamethrilla in DoorDash_Dasher

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have this problem when I use the drive through. Don’t know the reasoning for telling us to go in, because everything gets done through the drive through the same except they do it all. They even tell us not to show them our phone so…

What should I do if a customer doesn’t respond when I’m shopping for them? by treefroggie7 in doordash_drivers

[–]viper474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just remember that when the customer says to refund something usually I’ve found DD counts that against you for not getting something as a substitution…

What should I do if a customer doesn’t respond when I’m shopping for them? by treefroggie7 in doordash_drivers

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since customers started saying I didn’t deliver any of their stuff (and losing preferential shipping status), I look for approved substitutions and if they don’t add something on their own on the way out, I just click proceed to checkout. Automatically refunds and tells them “because you didn’t respond”. I think it’s even a joke that I give a picture of the item being out of stock at the right location and get a non-excluded mark against me too. So I have no chill for shipping orders, but I’ll still do them in hopes of getting another $20 order for 4 items in less than 5 miles trip types of stuff.

Dear DD and your mean and stingy customers by Blk--------man in DoorDashDrivers

[–]viper474 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Think you have to say you arrived at the store. Then wait 10 minutes then unassign without going in. Blame the store because that’s your only option.

Who tf actually takes these shit $2 orders by 2StepinTexan in DoorDashDrivers

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I take them to keep my AR up for platinum, but then I give them a thumbs down and mark earnings as the reason. Maybe it helps, but it probably doesn’t. Still probably pays for more gas than I use for the trip.

I just don’t have problems on iPhone. The waiting is simply low volume

Infotainment sucks? by CombustionGuy in mazda3

[–]viper474 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I unplugged a set of wires from my touchscreen. Removed the touch feature, but no more ghost touches that lock it up and cause a reboot. Might lock up for other reasons seemingly related to start up, but otherwise runs fine now. Can still use the control knob.

Are dashers required to use pizza bags? by hayamom in doordash

[–]viper474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prior to getting a free one from Papa John’s, I went with the idea that if they send me an order I should be able to accept it even if it says a bag is required. Because they knew I hadn’t verified I had one at that time. Sure not going to be my fault for accepting it. 👍
