    A web browser is not a computer. A phone is not a desktop computer. Google (and most other large companies) keep many features restricted to their full websites, not mobile apps and mobile versions of their sites. For those who are used to/grew up with smartphones, tablets, and chromebooks, these tactics help to make it harder to leave their ecosystems as they aren’t used to navigating desktop environments.

    (Chromebooks do give desktop versions of websites by default, but they have helped reduce technological literacy in exchange for convenience)










  • You’re so close to seeing the point. Yes indeed that the restaurant should be able to see if reservations are being changed around and be involved in those decisions, such as being able to restrict how they’re transferred and charging fees to do so. Your first paragraph is what is needed and what the law is trying to get these third parties to do.

    It’s not illegal to book a reservation and then turn around and give that reservation to someone else (scheduling conflicts, medical emergencies, etc) with the other person paying you for it. To me it’s a perfectly valid thing to do. The problem is that it’s being commercialized and creating confusion for both customers and restaurants who no longer know who’s booking their tables.

    What the fuck is normiecore?

    And your wife isn’t creating anything using ChatGPT. It’s hallucinating with no actual intelligence or creativity that’s trained off actual creative works. If your wife wants to create art, then she needs to pick a medium and get practicing.
