The screw on joystick with the colorful face buttons is so iconic

I wonder if it’s the same mysterious ball related game I wanted to play as a kid. I saw commercials for it, and I ended up mistakenly buying Glover for the Nintendo 64.

If your comment gets 2 upvotes, you can never mention beans again

I’m offended you only capitalized some of the keywords. Be consistent dammit! It’s like the number one rule of writing code for others to read

Nobody has mentioned it yet, but https://fedi-search.com/ already exists

Someone dug into the mod logs and found four or five instances of lemmy.world accounts being moderated on Beehaw. That’s all it took for them to defederate

It’s worth mentioning the article said prior to the blackout ads saw ~14,500 clicks so they’re currently down 40-50%

Discord actually recently upgraded free users to 25MB uploads so this meme is out of date

I actually just looked into this, and no state in America can legally pay an employee less than $7.25/hr. If you as the employee don't make enough in tips to make your wage at least $7.25/hr, the employer has to pay beyond the $2.13/hr to make sure you always make at least $7.25/hr, not that $7.25/hr is even remotely a livable wage in 2023…

I don't know if you need to pick a different one per se. It's all likely a work in progress. I did notice the community subscribe buttons are also often screwed up and are plain text instead of a clickable button. Not sure what that's all about. I've just been enjoying version 0.18 and the owner has the extra filters for top of the last 12, 6, and 1 hour

You should take a look at https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_US_states_by_minimum_wage and see what the minimum wage is in the state you are visiting. The minimum wage where I am is one of the highest in the nation so I don’t tip anymore.

Edit: I am aware many states have below federal minimum for tipped employees. My point was if they’re visiting one of the states with a high minimum wage, they should forgo tipping. Nobody below bothered to link it, but here's the minimum wage page for tipped employees: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/state/minimum-wage/tipped. It's worth noting that even in the states that can pay tipped employee as little as $2.13/hr, the employees never actually make less than the federal minimum of $7.25/hr because the employer has to make up the difference if the employee doesn't make enough in tips, not that $7.25/hr is even remotely a livable wage in 2023...

Regardless, tipping is an inherently flawed system, and it's not the responsibility of the consumer to pay specifically the server a living wage while everyone in the kitchen suffers (I would know, I've been there). If you're not happy with the wage laws in your state, get involved in politics and exercise your right to vote to do something about it.
