My first job was washing dishes in a restaurant half a decade before the iPhone released, so yes
I believe Pizza Hut had online ordering at the time, but via their website amd the drivers probably all worked directly for the individual Pizza Huts

an arm and a lag
What about the technology that runs food delivery services do you find so compelling? I don’t see what’s so special about any of it.
the aquaduct?
I’d rather they were destroyed, but practically speaking that’s impossible, and this sounds like the next best idea to me.
browsing menus you know are up to date
A quick web search shows plenty of anecdotes to the contrary.
being able to specify allergies as much as you want
And you trust that?? If I had a serious food allergy I would absolutely NOT trust that a food delivery service would communicate those effectively given how much they push restaurants around, up to and including adding restaurants without their knowledge or consent.
I suppose in the strictest sense, sure, these apps are convenient, but you sure are paying a lot for it, and some restaurants charge extra for it on top of the fees, and the delivery folks aren’t getting a fair cut of the fees. Most of the fees go to big tech.
And rollerskate bearings
Ruins the patina, or something
Food ordering apps aren’t convenient as fuck
I agree. Nothing convenient about overpaying to entrust your food to underpaid, unvetted delivery workers
try a Taycan if you ever get a chance! not literally VW but definitely not boring
not a crossover! not even remotely close
There has never been a non-electric Taycan, it has always been a pure battery EV
It’s also not a crossover. Sedan or wagon. And I can say firsthand that the wagon is outstanding
This could be a great Seinfeld or Curb episode
The sugar in the sweet tea is probably far more dangerous than its food-grade packaging
It’s great. Been using it for three or four years now. Never looked back.
Stardew Valley! At least on PC it has local split-screen co-op
