I definitely see clusters of tablets at some restaurants so they can manage it all.

It’s definitely quite common. And I hate it. I have a hard time not judging folks’ use of these things, at least in the USA where the people doing the actual work don’t get their fair share of the money, let alone health insurance or paid time off or sick leave.

I don’t understand why anyone would have this sort of thing delivered.

yes they are.

they don’t have to be for you personally but for most folks they absolutely are.

ACAB isn’t just about police brutality though. Isn’t Australia’s surveillance situation pretty bad? I include that sorta stuff.

Also, assuming you aren’t yourself Aboriginal, those folks seem to feel (based on a quick web search) suppressed from speaking out about the violence and harassment they experience from Australian cops.

Just give your answer anyways, you don’t need their permission. I believe that ACAB myself but I’m always eager to read why others agree with me

I believe that all cops are bad.

It doesn’t mean I think every cop is personally bad in their private life. It means that it doesn’t matter how good or bad a cop is as a private individual. As soon as they put on that uniform they become the enforcers of unjust laws, and the enforcers of persecution against minorities, journalists, workers taking collective action, environmental and climate activists, human rights activists…the list goes on.

All cops are bad because the very nature of being a cop overrides any personal merit the cop may otherwise have.

This video by Thought Slime explains quite well what is usually meant by ACAB, and explains what the alternatives are: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk5xnEL8mYg

Blatant violence committed by police is not the only reason cops are bad. They are also the enforcers against journalists, worker action, environmental and climate activism, and so on. Even when those folks are behaving entirely lawfully, cops or prosecutors or other government officials just make up bullshit charges to arrest and intimidate folks.

Richard Medhurst is a notable recent example in the UK.

Cucumber! Or red bell pepper

Your cops are bad too

What are you talking about? Don’t insult the concept such majestic creatures like dragons and kobolds with the absolute worst of humanity like that!

VFR multi. Got through instrument in sim but couldn’t get student loans anymore to go for actual IFR rating or commercial after that

You gotta at least get to the house song!!

Oh yeah, he was pretty thrilled by it!

I forgot about free nights and weekends!

“Get off the internet, I’m expecting a call”

I had the same experience. One day in high school, my dumb teenage ass was running my mouth off against affirmative action like the edgy dumbass I was, and a classmate just absolutely handed my ass to me. Teacher didn’t even interrupt, just let it happen.

I’m glad I was able to thank him for that like 12 years later on Facebook. Really planted a seed that needed planting.

I have some lower-four-figure watches and am always way more impressed by someone with a Casio or non-grand Seiko, they clearly have more sense than me, and excellent taste on top

I love you for this

“Treat others as you would have them treat you” is garbage, utter fucking trash

instead of the shitass golden rule, I prefer the platinum rule: “Treat others how they want to be treated”
