Being able to set your own hours is something most people dream of. Many conventional jobs have a busy season where 50+ hours is mandatory. I'm glad your friend is able to get a good balance going.

Considering Lemmy's market share, these memes only exist to harass third party voters.

As if Lemmy, which has a small userspace spread out over the world, can influence the election. Yet, here we are with a overly active Democrat and Israeli brigade making sure dissenting opinions cannot exist.

Lots of people didn't want to do their jobs. Sometimes I feel our whole government is just a giant grift.

I already don't eat there and now I wish I could eat there less; that man is gross.

I see. It could be easier for your friend to work with clients over other coworkers. There's nothing wrong with that.

If it works for you, that's great. But it's like @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world said, there's so many cons to work for Uber.

I remember getting a device that came with Vista. I reinstalled Vista on it and it still sucked. I then installed a pirated version of Windows 7 on it; the performance difference was night and day. It's not @TheEighthDoctor@lemmy.world's fault that Microsoft is certifying incompatible hardware.

I don't know but they beat me to it.

People accept the most ridiculous things. The amount of potential we have to improve everything is enormous.

Personally, I think Biden's take on Palestine is insane. It's like he as a personal stake on the continuation of making Palestinians miserable . Why do people still defend on when it comes to this? The best thing for these Democrats to do is what Harris is already doing; not talking about it since her plans on this issue WILL NOT help her campaign.

I cannot imagine it be a worthwhile investment. The only people I know who do Uber are retired and do it out of boredom. Fortunately, I don't know a single soul who does it for a job (without having another job to do as well).

There must be a good reason why why family quit 11! I'll trust their judgement on this one.

It's insane the amount of trans hate I have been hearing this past month alone (in real life). I have to explain: Sure, they weren't always front and center as today's political issues make them seem but they still existed. Their existence is not a recent development in any way. Tiktok isn't turning your kids into anything.

It's not just people who identify as Republicans or religious people either. I can see why the anti-queer vote is important to both parties; their numbers are staggering.

delivery drivers (7)

I shudder at the thought of driving for work. It's already so hard to keep up spatial awareness of the crazy drivers for an hour or less. I cannot imagine 8 hours of that.

was Biden right that Israel would stop listening to the US?

There's nothing Israel is doing that Biden wants them to stop. So, this is hard to judge.

because Biden was unable to convince Obama?

The opposite. Obama wanted Israel to slow down attacks on Palestinians. Biden talked Obama into to applying less pressure (and Obama was not asking for much to begin with).

Biden is making Netanyahu do things he doesn’t really want to do?

I suggested nothing of the sort.

Really not sure what your point is here.

It was a rebuttal to a comment someone else made.

Aren't they the opposite? Unless you are saying we should use past experiences to protect ourselves in the future then shouldn't we still ban Facebook? Regardless of how you feel about tiktok, Facebook was never neutered.

We have been arguing this [if both sides are bad] for 18 months now since most of us joined this site last June. How are these memes not spam or misinformation?

Edit: I meant June of 2023.

I replied. Feel free to read it.

American politics are unanimous on this issue. Biden complained Obama was being too hard on Neyanyahu. All Obama wanted is for Israel to stop bombing the innocent people in Gaza (and he asked Israel to halt building settlements for 3 months). Biden said that Obama was asking for too much and could risk Israel stop listening to the US. We reached this moment BECAUSE of Biden.

Trump sees how Washington is congratulating Biden while it's the liberal college students condemning him. That's a win-win situation in the mind of Republicans. In Trump's mind, bombing Palestine is good because Biden is getting away with it. Trump is saying he can do it better but isn't that what Trump says with everything. Is Trump new to you? Biden set this up.

I'm laughing at myself right now. I keep wishing people would switch to more progressive politics when people cannot even switch to a free piece of software with zero drawbacks even when their software starts blocking other software they use.
