Wait staff also get paid minimum wage in many states, same as McDonalds workers. Gratuities are all on top of the standard wages.

You should support eliminating tips and moving people away from slave wages. Laws exempting wait staff from minimum wage are horrible. Nobody should depend on tips.

It's perfectly optimized. I'm getting a rock solid 30fps. /s

Seriously though, I think it's fine. Especially indoors and in space, it performs well and looks incredible. New Atlantis is kinda ugly and janky though.

I just bought one of these. It hasn't even arrived yet. Guessing there's going to be a return soon.

Pretty sure HD ready is 540p that can take a 720p signal.

720p is HD and 1080p is Full HD. 4K is Ultra HD.

The barista is earning about 10x per hour as the factory worker before tips. Answer the question instead of avoiding it.

You aren't separated from the employees at a McDonalds. They make the same or less than Starbucks baristas. They even make cappuccinos and lattes. Do you tip them? Why not?

What about when you go to a restaurant and order a cappuccino after dinner? Do you tip the barista at the restaurant or just the server who brought it to you?

I've heard a lot of restaurants having trouble keeping wait staff after removing tips. But I hope you're right and it catches on.

Do you tip the factory workers who make your phone? What about the oil rig workers who get gas in your car? Is the rule literally just "we tip the people we see?"

Why would you tip for a coffee? You make me stand in line to order, stand against the wall to wait for my drink, and you want me to give you more than the $5 you're already charging for a latte? It's insane.

Don't worry though, I don't stiff the baristas. I make better lattes at home.

I had this happen a couple weeks ago while trying to back into a charger. It wasn't raining or anything like that. The car would just stop. It happened 2-3 times before I turned the car off and then on again.

I also once had it happen to me while parallel parking on an uneven road. I think the car thought that it was going to crash into the top of the sidewalk.

We need to retake the Senate for the blue team in 2024 so that we can have a real leader, like Diane Feinstein.

cf. fracking. They only care about farmland until someone shows up at their door with a checkbook.
