That’s not how it works. I’m a door dash driver. We get a base pay, (usually $2-$3 per order but can be more if it’s peak hours) plus tip. The base pay isn’t affected by tips.

We see the total (base pay plus tip) when we are deciding whether to take an order. Orders without tips are rejected by most drivers.

That’s reasonable, but it means that whether you count by volume or mass the atmosphere is a negligible contribution to the average.

Counting by volume would get tricky with the atmosphere. Where do you draw the line of where the atmosphere ends? Even thousands of miles from Earth there is very thin atmosphere.

And now you’re-a-peein’?

It was an uninsured McLaren F1, but yeah he’s done that too

I lay my shirts flat on a side table. Much quicker than hanging or folding, and still prevents wrinkles. Socks, underwear, and jeans I don’t fold, but I separate into different piles that go in drawers and shelves.

That not too far off how they used to program computers with punch cards

I keep my porn in a folder labeled “taxes” and my tax documents in a folder labeled “porn”

I admire their mission. Giving the power to the video creators is great. I’m all for coops. But, as a user I find it lacking. If you want to watch anything outside of educational videos and video essays you have to go elsewhere. It doesn’t have very good content discovery. I know creators don’t like chasing an algorithm, but as a viewer I like having recommendations based on what I watch.

I bought a one year membership, because I support what they are trying to do, but I rarely watch anything on it.

It’s hard to provide something extra when all their content comes from users. They tried with redtube YouTube Red originals but those were pretty lame.

It’s telling that pastors are the first people she wants to see what people are saying. Got to keep those sinners in line.

Civility is code for “stop complaining about how we treat you”. Jesse Gender has a pretty good video about civility politics (2hrs 21mins): https://youtu.be/-1TL9id26Ec

Hey, you never know, maybe their real name is Meridian Longitude. I’ve never heard of Longitude as a last name but I wouldn’t put it past some parents to name their kid Meridian.

That’s the way to be!

Similar thing with Jeff Bezos. His mom was a single teenage mother who went to night school to graduate highschool. His bio dad bailed. His stepdad was a young immigrant. They gave him $300,000 to start Amazon, but they worked their way up to the point where they could do it.
