Unfortunately you’re mistaken, Sora is not Google it’s OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman was taking live requests on xitter and posting back the outputs and they were just as impressive as the “cherry picked” video, that’s not to say they weren’t without issue, but the technology just improves. It’s currently worse than at any point in the future, but it will get better

Not saying that is actually how it will play out, I agree with you that it only actually happens to refrigerated or frozen products (that get discarded when misplaced). That’s not to say it doesn’t also happen to shelf stable products too and we don’t know about it, but I think that is unlikely.

I was just clarifying what I interpreted the original commenters intentions behind said protest would be, not that it would be effective. I believe the interpretation that it’s just about messing with low income workers to be not quite what the intention was.

The idea is that once it’s moved by customers to a different section, the store will treat the product as bad and toss it out. Yes you’re right more work for the minimum wage guy who has to throw it out now, but the idea is that enough loss on that specific product and the manager may stop ordering that/those brands all together. They might not realize the products are related to Israel, just that the other brands are still selling, so by happenstance, the Israeli dates look inferior due to perceived customer purchasing habits. Eventually they may not be ordered anymore and that affects the parent company in Israel.

It’s a really long game, but that’s what I gather the goal of that specific protest would be.

Anyone who believes that stimulus was significant looks like this And they believe candy is still 5¢ lmao

It just dumps out to the empty space in the wall all the way to the floor, it would take a very very long time to fill that up to where it’s “full”, you’d have to fill the wall to that height in a wide area near the hole

So is this like last time a couple years ago when a small outbreak was used as a greedflation excuse? Nationwide

No way is driving 5 minutes to pick up food in town worth an hour’s wage to me. And on top of saving me fees and tip money for myself I will get my food faster hotter and fresher and it also won’t smell of cigarettes. I do not order delivery at this point. I only pick up or make food at home. Delivery is a waste of money

Maybe I’m wrong. I think you’re misunderstanding the person you’re replying to, and I didn’t not get from them did they find it inconvenient to pay a stranger more money because it’s a stranger, just saying that they find it to be inconvenient to spend an extra $20 on top of the meal anytime they want delivery and it would probably be better off to go pick it up themselves or make food at home which is what I do. Haven’t ordered delivery in months because it’s such a waste of money.

That person also never said anything about how “that’s somebody’s job and they signed up for it” and that was you that brought that into this mix. I don’t know why you’re getting so offended or pissed off about that comment. They’re just saying that paying an extra $20 for delivery is inconvenient and costly.

If you are a driver and you make money from doordash or Uber, you might want to consider getting into a different line of work because those companies are just scamming the hell out of you and there’s no need to be so defensive of them.

Elon said himself that he did it to kill HSR lmao

I know this is probably off topic but I’m always stunned in these articles how simple things like this cause peoples (the authors) brains to just meltdown. They seemingly become so helpless when they don’t have a screen to tell them what to do and where to go. As a species we have been so heavily spoiled that simple inconveniences are seemingly incomprehensible to people who are surrounded and coddled by technology at every moment.

That’s not to say I’m perfect and haven’t fallen victim to these things myself, but I at least try to make do and overcome without complaining to the world how hard it is, since it’s not hard at all, just a bit inconvenient. At least I’m not making sandals out of discarded tires, shit could be worse than my car not being able to tell me where to go for a few minutes. (Not trying to say people in those conditions live shitty lives, they’re just subject to their environments; they very well may enjoy their way of living but from my western, coddled perspective, it sounds subjectively unpleasant and I’m greatful for what I have) /rant

More on topic, it’s really sad and unfortunate that so many software based products are shipping in such abysmal and borderline useless states until months after release. Too many things are made now with the presumption that “we just gotta ship it and we’ll fix it later”. It’s annoying as hell but understandable with games, it’s not a critical piece of software. A car though? Even if it’s the infotainment system it’s still awful. I love my '06 car, works great, gets me where I need to go, doesn’t harvest my data or relies on a battery to open the door.

I’m reminded of an article from 2015 about how a Jeep could be “hacked” while in motion and the attacker could apply the e-brake or kill the engine. Scary stuff, and with a thousands of pound rolling machine, it better not have such flawed software.

Anyway, I wish we could go back to an engine on wheels and a protective shell, don’t need all the “gizmos” so to speak.
