I just refuse to order off Uber Eats or Doordash. Does that count as not punishing the drivers?

Ugh, gig workers need to be brought into some semblance of a minimum wage. Uber and Doordash are just techstortion.

Sorry guys it’s my fault. I canceled my D+ from my Hulu account when the prices went up. Didn’t realize Disney would stage a full-on takeover of Hulu to get me back.

Oh cool, is there anything similar for lemmy?

I love the fediverse, but it hasn’t fully solved the migration need problem. If I open an account on an instance which I later discover I don’t like, I have to migrate for that as well.

I don’t have a lot of statistics to back it up except that it seems worse on the East Coast and Rust Belt

As far as lawns go, thanks to lead paint and leaded gasoline from the mid-20th century, that land isn’t even one you’d consider suitable for growing food unless your house was built after the 1980s. At least, as long as you’re trying to avoid getting lead in your produce.
