Wendy’s will experiment with dynamic surge pricing for food in 2025
  • This was my thought. I’m thinking that just taking up the space in line for the drive through will cause issues. Pull up to the kiosk with a line of cars behind and decide that it’s too expensive? Now where do you go? I guess I’ll just sit here for a bit till the line clears in front of me. Oh, sorry I didn’t notice the line had moved, I was ordering food on my phone from a competitor across the street you see…

  • Truckers pour cold water on pro-Trump New York boycott: "Not happening"
  • I’m absolutely positive that there will be a “boycott”. At least a couple dozen truck drivers could easily be convinced to free at the edge or NYC and wave about some Trump flags. The funny thing tho, is that there are likely millions of truck drivers who won’t care or will be happy for the loads. The unfunny thing is the media attention that the couple dozen truckers will get.

  • Court documents naming Epstein associates are to be made public this week? Who do you think will come out the worst?
  • About the same as most big scandals. Lots of noise and very few consequences. The damage control has somewhat started already. LOTS of people were “associated” with Epstein but that’s not a true implication of what their association was.

  • Existing back in time where the general temperature of space was 0 celsius?
  • Space is currently at approximately NEGATIVE 270 Celsius. The last time that the general temperature of the universe was zero Celsius it was probably some short (cosmologically speaking) time after the Big Bang and consisted of some sort of hypothetical gluon/plasma/quark/condensate. All matter as humans understand it is gone in a practical instant.

  • That party is less evil
  • A fairly apt description of healthcare in the USA. Unfortunately one party seems to think that healthcare needs to be tied to your job whereas the other wants to make healthcare as broadly available as possible.

    Both sides are just horrible! /sarc

  • [WIRED] Did Anyone Ever Really Need a Smart Display?
  • I’m fairly heavily invested into Alexa for powering my home. When I wanted to have some smart screens as well as video calling devices for communication to family, I bought a few Fire8 tablets for cheap, along with some stands that could telescope to almost 4 feet tall. I put the tablets into their smart display modes and they work pretty well for what I paid. The audio quality isn’t as good as the actual Alexa devices I have, but they are super portable with built in batteries and they even work OK as websurfing/video tablets now that we don’t need them as communication devices anymore.

  • LG to offer subscriptions for already purchased appliances and televisions, evolving into a provider for “Home as a Service”
  • My 6ish year old Sony was purchased with the built in OS as my least important quality, as I knew that someday it’d be unsupportable as far as new apps, but that a third party box would provide a good experience with a single HDMI. I’m actually still using the built in OS but I can tell that it’s getting slower and buggier, so I’m thinking of getting a Roku soon.

  • Texas judge says Supreme Court ruling means she doesn’t have to officiate same-sex weddings
  • So stupid. The idea that a public servant could refuse service to someone due to their personal views should immediately trigger their firing.

    By the same token, can a black police officer refuse to arrest someone of their own race? Can a tax auditor refuse to investigate a pedo if they have those same beliefs? Can a permit office refuse to let a Catholic Church add on a wing?
