Customers should pay more, but they don't want to.
Customers could tip more, but they are choosing not to.
For the employers to pay their workers more, customers have to pay more, but we know they don't want to (if they did they'd tip more).
The problem is there are drivers that will accept the lower pay, as long as there are workers will accept the lower pay, there's no reason for employers to increase wages.
If I understand the issue, it's that customers could add/specify a tip in an attempt to game the system and get their food faster (or just not have their order sit waiting for someone to pick it up), and now that customers are tipping after the delivery (and drivers are picking up orders blind), tips are way down.
OK, I don't think it's fair to say the services with their post-delivery tipping "cost drivers $550 Million" - it's a made-up number, nothing more - drivers are getting what people want to pay/tip, rather than pre-tip to try and get a better experience...
"A good carpenter never blames his tools."
The officer's failure to review/check whatever their AI tool produced is the issue. AI didn't sign the report, an officer did.
Wasn't this requirement in effect since 2007? For 18 years Verizon was treated differently than every other cellular carrier, maybe it's OK to just treat them like everyone else now?
A white house with a useless wing that needed upgrades like many former presidents have done for 200+ years.
When Biden, Trump, Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, and other administrations held state dinners, they were put on in tents setup on the Whitehouse grounds... Is there a reason why we can't have a ballroom suitable for such events?
And the part of the Whitehouse Trump took down? It was not part of the historic building, it was added about 90 years ago and contained, you guessed it, office space. Wow.
Of course, the fact that no taxpayer funds are funding the ballroom construction is overlooked by critics. Reminds me when Nancy Reagan arranged for new Whitehouse China - paid for by donors, not the taxpayers - critics tried to defend mix-and-match China at formal dinners.
The pretense is that there are equally qualified candidates for a given position, and the only differentiator is gender, skin color, sexual orientation, or ethnicity, and that in those cases, it is the obligation of the hiring manager to pick the member of the under-represented group over the otherwise equally qualified candidate from the over-represented group.
It's how you get a Fire Commisioner in NYC who's never worked as a fireman - because apparently she's just as qualified (if not better qualified) than anyone that worked their way up through the NYC FD.
And I expect Kamala Harris would have funded Ukraine's defense so Russia would be less significant than now.
Under Biden US taxpayers were funding the Ukraine war effort virtually alone, the current administration has convinced Ukraine's neighbors to start buying the U.S. weapons Ukraine needs to fight Russia.
The Biden Admin funded several years of fighting in Ukraine, I don't see how that diminished Russia in any meaningful way, why would more of the same lead to any different outcome?
We aren't changing allowable pollution levels, we're simply not treating a made-up number as if it were a real thing.
Are you really saying more lives will be lost by merely not reporting a "lives saved" number?
"Lives Saved" is a made-up number. It may be based on some sound modeling, but at the end of the day, we can't verify or confirm the accuracy of the number of "lives saved".
It reminds me of the equally made-up "Jobs Created or Saved" metric the Obama administration created.
That's not a liars loan - that's a bank loaning money to someone they believed had a longstanding relationship with the bank.
A liars loan was when a mortgage applicant couldn't supply income verification, so they just made up a number and put it on the application. Liars loans were a significant, but not the only, issue in the 2008 mortgage crisis.
Explain to me how drivers that refuse to collect tolls aren't eligible to fe terminated, union or no union?
If you ran the bus company, and your drivers pulled this stunt, how would you feel inviting the union in as your new partner?
If, for example, those Starbucks workers looking to unionize were to refuse to charge customers for their drinks, by what logic would Starbucks have to keep them on the payroll?
Perhaps it's people like you that are driving Ubisoft to close/consolidate operations?
I'm not a gamer, but the comment section here is rapidly filling up with comments about Ubisoft selling off valuable chunks of the company and how they seem to trying to squeeze maximal revenue from players, and the players resentment it and are boycotting their products.
If that is the state of their business, it shouldn't be hard to document losses that inspired the shutdown.
I'm not sure how Canadian unionizing works, but it sounds like all the workers did was vote to form a union, there's no discussion of actually approving an agreement with the union, i think the unionization effort is only just starting, there's probably a loophole/lowered requirement to shut down the business in this "in-between state."
Too many hams want to keep running Win 7, because their 10 year-old Panasonic toughbook is still running fine, LOL.
I'm involved in several Amateur Radio clubs in my area, and I've never seen any group effort be impacted by everyone running Windows. In fact, each club runs windows for logging software at club operating events, It Just Works.

Whether or not you use Linux, the phrase "Linux is fine if you are a tinkerer" is most certainly outdated and should be dropped from common use, as it's not really untrue.
"It's not really untrue"? Did you mean to say that?
Windows 11 has two 'distributions' as far as home/personal users are concerned, there are more Linux distributions than stars up in the sky - picking one is enough to scare of most Windows users.
A base install of Windows 11 is no harder than an install of any mainstream Linux distribution. OneDrive is a convenient way for the average windows user to have a cloud-based backup for selected folders on their computer - isn't that a good thing? The MS account requirement is not something the average user cares about, only technical Linux enthusiasts latch on to to hold up as a big issue. A club I'm involved with has a shared laptop for the club treasurer. A few years ago the new treasurer orked the system in dramatic fashion - pulling down the OneDrive files after a 20 minute OS re-install had us back in the system with no lost files. Can that be setup in Linux - OF COURSE - but the ease of backup in windows w/ OneDrive is a feature, not a failure.
He only ran/runs "average consumer machines" - that leaves out high-end video cards, RAID and non-commodity NICs - I believe it.
If you stick to off-lease corporate desktops and their common hardware, sure - Linux is great with that stuff. The real pain (early on) were soft modems (I did say early), cheap ink-jet printers with host-based rendering engines, and discrete graphic cards.
