titanicx@lemmy.zipto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Microsoft doing shady Microsoft stuff againEnglish1·23 hours agoI mean I’ve started utilizing duck duck go for most of my searches on my phone about five six months ago or so. But that has been limited in a number of things in a professional sense where I have had to switch over to Google to be able to actually find the correct answers that I need.
titanicx@lemmy.zipto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Microsoft doing shady Microsoft stuff againEnglish66·24 hours agoI mean it goes back and forth so much. I remember when Firefox was the king of browsers 15 years maybe 18 years ago. It then got so loaded with shit that Chrome was the only way to go for about 10 years or so now at this point I think it’s pretty much a wash between the two. If nothing else you can use a lighter browser. I personally prefer Chrome because then I can use it on my phone my tablet my computer and have access to all of my tabs as access to all of my searches everything between the three devices.
Wow there is so much wrong with your statement I don’t even know where to begin. I’m just going to stay at the obvious that you can still obviously feed a family of four for $40 or less. I know that because I have a family of four and weed out a lot and I’m very aware of pretty much all of the fast food costs. Well yes there are some that can definitely be $50 $60 or more I can definitely buy meals for everybody to be satiated for $40 or less even. Hell when I’m trying to save money I can’t even go a little as low as 20 bucks at a number of different places. And also I’m a business owner and so there are a ton of cost involved besides labor as you mentioned there and the cost of raw materials for food is definitely higher than 1/10 of the cost of what the food is itself. Usually you’re dealing with maybe 20 to 30% and that is being spread over the cost of everything else included there.
Not only that, but you have to pay for their knowledge and expertise. Can my son do my job? Sure, because I trained him. Can he do it as good as I? Not even close, nor can he do it near as fast. When we go someplace that has a higher cost, but, let’s just talk food, the quality of cooking, technique, etc is better, it’s worth the extra cost, to a point. There is definitely the pay me more mentality in many places, but there is also definitely value in much of it.
Let’s talk chicken. If you offer me a butchered chicken done by someone that was hired last week and it’s being paid as such, compared to one that was prepared by a person that has been doing it for 10 years, but there was a 10 or 20% cost difference, it would be well worth it to pay more to make sure the job was done correctly.
Or it could be recency bias. He was there he saw something he then saw an ad pop up and subconsciously linked his visit there to visit there. At best Amazon or any other advertiser tracking your phone could only see the general area they’re at they don’t know that he’s by a cabinet and they definitely don’t know and they definitely aren’t accessing surveillance systems to provide personalized ads.
His whole argument ignores labor costs.

And a complicated mechanical system to produce a flight path. The blimp itself is complicated, but it’s not a kite.

titanicx@lemmy.zipto Technology@lemmy.world•'Windmill': China tests world’s first megawatt-level airship to capture high windsEnglish21·1 day agoThat looks complicated and frankly kind of stupid. Imagine trying to get something like that working without having an engineer standing by that can get everything fixed once it crashes down or something else like that happens.
He shot at a van that was parked. Probably trying to hit the driver’s, and sucked at it.
Indescrimanant shooting. That’s how.
