Today I told Deliveroo I no longer want to use them. It galls me that they charge 35% on everything I sell through their platform, making more money on food than I do.
Currently I am forced to sell a £10 dish at £15.50, a £15 dish at £23. On top of this they charge customers delivery fees / charges

People mock the progress of AI but this is genuinely incredible — these humanoid soccer robots are already better than Scotland, and this technology will only get smarter.

A bunch of incel wannabe frat boys are attempting to destroy our government so they can rape and pillage among the spoils. This is the most dangerous moment in this country’s history, and anyone who’s not fighting back in some form or fashion is complicit in our ruination.

Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election.
She said “your head will spin with all the wild stuff they try to pull, new things every day, but don’t take your eyes off the money. It’s all about the money, and what they’re stealing, and for whom.”
