I'm surprised that government devices aren't heavily locked down so users only have the bare minimum apps and lock installs. Even weirder that government officials would be allowed to use the device for personal use. That's how I'd think work devices would be handled to try to reduce attack vectors.

I think piped is able to bypass region locks.

It doesn't support pressure sensitivity, a key feature of the other two models. It can attach magnetically on its flat edge and supports hover previews like the second-generation Pencil. However, it can't charge or pair wirelessly via that magnetic attachment like that model can, and it doesn't support the double-tap gesture.

Seems like a waste of money then and not anymore enticing that third party options that existed before. Pressure sensitivity has been the selling point of the Apple pencil.

Seems like a company that shouldn't exist if they can't stay in business by actually charging what is necessary to remain solvent because customers will be scared off as you claim.

Seems more an excuse for door dash to justify why they don't set a proper delivery fee to lure customers and underpay drivers and just sit back and have the blame game being played between customers and workers.

It seems like ticket master with the fees at the end and then have people go well I'm already this far into the cart so I might as well check out, or electronics where the starting price is low then few upgrades and price is more than double the initial eye catching low base price.

It's all pricing tricks except in this one they shift the blame to customers and workers while upper management watches them fight. And tricked people into saying it's somehow impossible to actually charge a product to account for all the overhead because it's a services and acting like every other monetary based activity isn't a service too but doesn't have pricing problems.

That is the business justification for it. I'm saying set the price themselves and if it's door dash than actually set a high enough fixed price as opposed a system worse than ticket master where it's a guess game of begging and charity.

You try to make it out to be so complex but really is as simple as an online company not being the one to do the delivery but providing different delivery options from various different companies that have set a clear and upfront cost to deliver the package.

Instead of a weird paying the cost of the product and being charged cost of shipping but then that actually not being enough, since delivery companies can be bothered and having to start tipping hoping x delivery company eventually delivers it since they don't know how to set prices themselves.

Why not actually price it into the cost of the food. Like any delivery x distance will cost x amount. Like actually charge what they want instead of this arbitrary guessing game.

Like you know... Like how online orders will provide the shipping cost to the consumer and then not expect tips, since the shipping cost is already accounted.

Charge what they want...

Tipping is weird to me. Since every other business doesn't have tips because they already price their services or products correctly to account for their employees salary, since it is 100% their responsibility as the employer.

This shifting of responsibility and blame to the client by underpaying staff and pushing a system of begging and guilty tripping is incredibly weird.

This all signifies a pricing problem. Well I guess not one for the employers who are cheapskates raking in profits in a system where they shift attention of blame away from themselves.

Having to even throw in something like WW3 into the potential reasons shows there isn't a strong argument for you to need one. Haha

Yeah like others asked can you elaborate on what you were being censored for? I haven't had issues with being censored by reddit and just started using lemmy due to wanting an alternative to try after the third party api change.

So I am curious what exactly you are posting that is getting censored if it was also considered bad enough on reddit.

When it comes to these forced bundles if the added service isn't something I'd pay I just price it at what they are asking for, since whether it includes extra doesn't matter when there isn't a choice to separate it. It's just an approach I've taken due to services like PS+ paywalling multiplayer while I didn't care about the "free games".

Yep, been common for sports streams where you get a notification that game is on break or something and play will resume once game starts again. Preferable over ads to me.
