This is fake, right?

EDIT

The more you look at it the more obvious it becomes that it's fake.

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

For now. If you could explain one gig service to the people who fought for labor rights circa 1900, they'd be astonished we let it happen again.

You do know this is a us problem right (as in the geoup of first world countries, not that third world countries…)?

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I assume it's not common to developing nations. Sorry if I didn't communicate that well. How did you interpret it?

[-] theUwUhugger@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Nononono, I am just sure someone would have made the pointless distinction

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Oh, I get it now. Yeah, whataboutism has been running rampant even more than usual lately.

[-] teft@piefed.social 28 points 1 year ago

0.3 what? meters? km? AU? Parsecs?

[-] FrowingFostek@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

It's by the Ohio river, freedom units are implied.

[-] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 year ago

Ah 0.3 bald eagles it is.

[-] bdonvr 3 points 1 year ago

So fathoms? There's so many freedom units.

[-] FrowingFostek@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, one can not fathom all freedom units.

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

But what freedom unit?

If it's 0.3 miles, wouldn't it be replaced with some other unit? So, it's 0.3 of the smaller unit (whatever that is), or miles? Or do people not convert small values when working in freedom units?

[-] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

0.3 miles is 2.5 stonethrows, 3 thighbones, 87 feet, and 2 thumbs (or 1.5 toes)

Gigameters

(If anyone is curious, 0.3Gm is around 1491290 furlongs, 8 chain, and 61.37links!)

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

0.3 distance. Can't you read?

[-] teft@piefed.social 3 points 1 year ago

It's like those math problems.

"Hiro drives his deliveries at an average rate of 40 distance per hour. Given a neighborhood with side lengths of 1 distance what is the total travel time for your ubereats driver after he crashes his e scooter 0.3 distance from your house and has to hoof it the rest of the way?"

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Assume he's carrying the 30 watermelons you ordered and is not subject to wind resistance.

[-] guy@piefed.social 3 points 1 year ago

Are those European or African watermelons?

[-] teft@piefed.social 3 points 1 year ago

I just assumed we were going with a spherical pizza delivery driver in a vacuum as usual.

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It gets worse. He has angular momentum, but he's not spinning.

[-] bubblybubbles@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 year ago

"Send flowers" $29.99 and all the dasher gets is the flower emoji 🤣 💐

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Don't give them ideas. I remember back when they were, unkownst to the customers, taking dasher tips.

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I think this might be more of an “are you really gonna do that for some ‘za” notification.

[-] stroz@infosec.pub 3 points 1 year ago

I ordered DoorDash in Vegas a couple of years ago, and dude got pulled over by the cops in the parking lot of my hotel before he was able to deliver lol

[-] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago

I was at a game night where the delivery driver for one of my friend's orders had to call and say he wasn't going to name it because of an accident
