    tipping should be illegal because it leads to underpaid workers. but until tipping becomes illegal, you are a fucking asshole if you don’t tip. you’re not sticking it to the man, you’re just shitting on a minimum wage worker because m-muh principles. grow up or move to a country where they don’t tip

    the most enraging thing i’ve ever experienced on windows was when they started automatically “off-loading” files on my drive because i was running out of space. what the fuck, fuck you, i needed that, die in a fire and never touch my drive again. if i need more space i will fucking make more space









  • this looks cool on the surface but i wonder about so many issues. is it harder to fix a punctured tire? why not a conventional baggage holder in front or above the back wheel? what happens if the fingerprint scanner breaks? their claim that it is harder to steal makes me laugh. 99% of bike thefts don’t happen because the perpetrator is looking for a bike to use, they simply throw a bunch of locked bikes in a truck and scrap them for parts in another country.






  • i am sorry if i sounded patronizing, i promise you that’s not even remotely what i intended. i was just trying to give you a non-american perspective in a neutral tone, but i must have failed that

    i think you’re misunderstanding how cards on phones work in the EU. if the card reader that you’re interacting with accepts wireless cards, it will also accept your phone. i’ve never visited the US so i don’t know how it works over there, but here in europe, there are no “apple pay” or “google wallet” stickers/requirements on the terminals. it just shows a universal “wireless cards” symbol, which means that anything NFC will work

    in europe, you can use your phone to pay on all of the same machines that take cards. your phone just mimics being a physical card

    also, in some countries, you can have your ID on your phone through government apps. i never need to carry anything other than my phone where i live

    edit: also, just for the record, i want you to know that having your cards locked digitally in your phone is more secure than having a wireless card in your physical wallet
