Interesting. Makes a lot of sense, though it sucks that it’s all based on assumptions because it sounds like it can easily be mistaken for a lot of things.

Oh that makes more sense.
My mind went to a completely different approach, collecting your data when you fuck someone in the car. Length of sex, moaning volume and pumps per minutes is what I was thinking of.

How?! And also, why?! I don’t get it. What was the point of doing this?
Honestly, I figured that they collected data. But I didn’t think the extent of it would be stuff like my sex life and genetic data. How the hell do those work?
I meant more around “reddit is known for having porn channels” and less “reddit pushes porn in your default feeds”.
You’re right though, the casual dead-minded scroller wouldn’t know about it.
I always wondered if there were people oblivious to porn on reddit. It always seemed like common knowledge those days.
It’s not the usual manufactured porn by companies, it’s usually people showcasing a video of themselves.
That’s true but it isn’t mutually exclusive.
I wish, that sounds amazing.
Most of the cashiers I interacted with years ago weren’t really nice. Not that I blame them, the job is boring, the hours are terrible and some people are horrible to serve. As someone who worked in retail and finished every single shift tired and cranky, I get why cashiers don’t want to interact with you anymore than you do want to interact with them.
So hooray for neither side having to interact!
My parents (who are 70 and 71) have their mindset too. I disagree with that “I don’t work here” argument - who said scanning items HAS to be something that only a cashier does? Why is it considered work compared to something like choosing and weighing vegetables, which is something no one ever expects a worker to do for them nowadays?
For me, the merit of those self checkout stations is that you can do this easy thing (scanning items) yourself. I don’t need someone to scan items for me. It was the only thing that I still wasn’t allowed to do by myself, and I’m glad it eliminated having to interact with cashiers. All I need the place to do is stock up items and make sure the place is clean.
I’m with you man. I love just listening to music while I scan my items and going away. Entire shopping process without interacting with anyone at all. Amazing.
Where I live they work just fine. Sounds like your problem is that your supermarket bought terribly made self checkout machines that keep failing.
Why? Do you also want to be paid for taking products off the shelves or choosing the good vegetables?
This is just how the place works and you are not entitled to anything just because it does things a certain way. You can keep going to the regular cashier lane if you don’t like “doing work for the company”.
I’m not sure I agree. Why does it matter if it is 10 items or 30? I do the same work as a cashier, albeit understandably at a slower pace.
Sounds like the issue for you is that the self checkouts keep failing for random reasons and stalling the lines - in which case you’re trying to minimize the symptom instead of demanding them to make the self checkouts work and have the monitoring person be properly trained to handle issues if they do arise.
Where I live they are usually working fine and the line is a few people at best, even if they have a ton of items to scan.
I don’t think the discussion is choosing between not working AT ALL and working there.
It is more about would you work at a good place that has good people and decent pay, or Meta.
We thought you would love to throw money at us!
Honestly I don’t see most of the indie companies keep working with Unity unless they have no choice. Even if they roll it back, who’s to say that they won’t do that again next year?
The fact that they count you retroactively for eligibility means they want to try and rake as much money as possible.
I do this sometimes, it’s great. I pretend to be just really, really, really dumb that whatever they’re trying to make me do doesn’t work. “Give me your credit card number” “I can’t, they’re glued to the credit card…”
If they start yelling, you broke them.
Yep. That’s what I do when I don’t want to answer. Works great.
Producing - sure. But consuming?
