Today I Learned

What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Done. Two seconds. 2/3 hrs pay to them. Do it you assholes.

Didn't say anything about giving $5 :/

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

It could limit it to a certain number per driver or something? Who knows. It's not transparent (on purpose) so we probably can't know what's going on.

This happened to my bestie just now when I screencapped that it had worked for me and told him about it.

I wonder what the difference is? Maybe its regional?

Edit: He figured his out. He placed the order through Amazon but it was delivered via USPS. Maybe that's the issue?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Hmm, I don't know. The last purchase was a book my mom bought, it's possible that's the issue. I'll try again next time we order something to make sure.
Thanks!

Just tried it and it worked. 9:30 PST.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's nice and all, and deserved, but that would mean me using the amazon app which has far too many negatives for me to consider

[–] daggermoon 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

it works in the browser too, just did it

[–] AquaTofana 3 points 1 week ago

Yup! I also was able to do it using the browser!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Don't seem to have that option in the app in Canada

Worked for me

[–] BeatTakeshi 4 points 1 week ago

So you have ordered a book named "Never pay the first bill"??

[–] shalafi 4 points 1 week ago

Haven't had a delivery in 14-days, didn't work. Bummer. I like my guy.

[–] Skyrmir 3 points 1 week ago (11 children)

Well hell, wish I'd known this when they dropped off a bunch of flat pack desks. I'm not tipping the guy that just dropped off a kitchen spoon.

Any Amazon drivers here that can give some insight into this?

[–] th3dogcow 3 points 1 week ago

Works in Japan, too. Gives ¥500 extra.

[–] weariedfae 3 points 1 week ago
