I get up at 6 and go to bed at 10 for work but I’m gonna be honest anytime before 9 am or after midnight is quiet hours imo

The employer doesn’t care if you don’t tip. All you’re doing is shafting the workers.

Oml yes it does. Some always gets taken which is super fucked up but they make up part of the wage. 60% of my income is tips and that’s how most American service workers are. Please tip. It’s a shitty system but it’s the system. You’re not rebelling by hitting no tip.

Source? I don’t disbelieve you necessarily but I’d love to read more

I would not really recommend LaTeX or any of those other programs just for writing student papers. LaTeX is for academic papers and it’s pretty cumbersome and technical to learn, it would be very very extra to use it for writing just like your random freshman comp paper. I’m not sure why that list doesn’t have LibreOffice or OpenOffice or whatever.

I think a non-insubstantial amount of the comment activity was bots to be fair.

I hope so, I just hope that it actually gets some traction in the wake of all this instead of getting a modest bump and then mostly dying out again, which is what seems like the most likely direction. I have faith though

that’s fair, I exclusively used old reddit but I never touched RES for whatever reason

It feels a lot more snappy, clean, and modern. I think most of that is because it hasn’t accumulated a lot of the bloat and feature creep that Reddit has over the years. The biggest downside, though, is that the community is much smaller and there isn’t a lot of the niche content that Reddit is so good for.

The best way in the modern capital environment is to pivot to algorithm-driven content like TikTok-- I think we’re seeing the decline of traditional social media in general in favor of platforms that follow the TikTok formula.
