I believe the goal should be to improve these worker’s conditions. Make checkout work as comfortable as possible, promote them taking turns and switching tasks so they don’t have to be doing just checkout for 8 hours.
Instead of removing the job, make it less annoying.
That’s one way of looking at it, and I respect it, BUT also think that self-checkouts are a way of eliminating jobs: stores just want to have fewer employees and more benefit. I avoid self-checkout not for convenience, but because I don’t want to contribute to the destruction of jobs.
Yeah, I understand that might have been their reasoning. But of they force it on us without notice, then they should get even more flak. They want to attract whoever likes that, so they annoy their whole user base (plus those of us using Firefox forks).
Why would people with checked luggage need to leave the plane first? They are going to be waiting 20~30 minutes for their suitcase at he conveyor belts. They can’t hurry even if they wanted to.
But why is it turned on by default in the first place?
My go to artist for relaxing music is Goldmund, and mainly the album Famous Places
actually any string quartet music
No, not any string quartet music is relaxing. Don’t play Shostakovich’s String Quartet No. 8 to relax or you might have a heart attack when the second movement starts.

It’s always a hard band name to spell
Thanks for the clarification
Could you please explain what Kopub is? I cannot find information online: is it a jailbreak method? an app that can be installed after jailbreak? Do you have a link?
I’m on the same boat as you (except on a pretty old Kindle Touch), and I still don’t know if it’s worth for me. It seems like people will lose the ability to connect to Amazon’s servers and will lose the books they bought from them.
But for us who don’t get our books from Amazon and just transfer them using Calibre: are there any big advantages?
Most music is pretty medicore
medicore? I have heard of metalcore, must be related. But there area many other genres! classical, jazz, blues, folk, pop, Rock & Roll, funk, disco, electronic… it’s not most metalcore (and probably not medicore either, whatever that is).
What happens in Siegen? Do they get both? If so, then they are the winners here.
This! Open source, private (doesn’t ever attempt to connect to the internet), simple, no bullshit. Available not only on F-Droid not also on the Play Store and as direct APK download from GitHub:
No, Mullvad is not deprecated at all (are you maybe thinking of Mull?) Vivaldi is Chromium based, that’s a no-go: don’t support Google’s hegemony by any means
I didn’t write a comment on Fortune’s website, I wrote a comment to a post in Lemmy. https://lemmy.world/c/technology is a community in Lemmy.World, an instance for the entire world to use.
I take that as a compliment, thanks.

The country, ah yes the only place that exists on the internet, the almighty one powerful country to rule them all. THE. COUNTRY.
Ey! My GP’s notes don’t mention I wasn’t smoking weed. I’ll have to ask them to include it next time.
