A web browser is not a computer. A phone is not a desktop computer. Google (and most other large companies) keep many features restricted to their full websites, not mobile apps and mobile versions of their sites. For those who are used to/grew up with smartphones, tablets, and chromebooks, these tactics help to make it harder to leave their ecosystems as they aren’t used to navigating desktop environments.
(Chromebooks do give desktop versions of websites by default, but they have helped reduce technological literacy in exchange for convenience)
They said to try again on a computer. All your screen shots are from a phone. You might get the same result, but we won’t know until you attempt it.
It doesn’t sound like they’re making more work for you. It sounds like you’re making more work for yourself, and it sounds exhausting.

It’s not comfortable, but has been the best remedy. Peanut butter sounds like it would be good since it’s slow to swallow
You’re so close to seeing the point. Yes indeed that the restaurant should be able to see if reservations are being changed around and be involved in those decisions, such as being able to restrict how they’re transferred and charging fees to do so. Your first paragraph is what is needed and what the law is trying to get these third parties to do.
It’s not illegal to book a reservation and then turn around and give that reservation to someone else (scheduling conflicts, medical emergencies, etc) with the other person paying you for it. To me it’s a perfectly valid thing to do. The problem is that it’s being commercialized and creating confusion for both customers and restaurants who no longer know who’s booking their tables.
The problem, as pointed out in the first paragraph, is that these are third party apps operating without the restaurant’s knowledge or consent. The proposed law would outlaw what these apps are doing if they do not have a contract with the restaurant. I’m all for it.

Figured it would be the easiest for me to slide into for a desktop experience since my homelab is headless

I’m surprised that the standard repository has such an old version! Completely removing that one and manually installing the latest version fixed my problems thankfully, minus a few visual glitches that weren’t there in Windows (Not too surprising)

Correct, many states have their own databases. It was part of my job while in retail pharmacy in Oregon to check vaccination histories prior to giving them to verify they’re getting correct boosters at the right time

And your wife isn’t creating anything using ChatGPT. It’s hallucinating with no actual intelligence or creativity that’s trained off actual creative works. If your wife wants to create art, then she needs to pick a medium and get practicing.

It’s always a risk buying used drives, and everything I’ve seen and heard about them has been good news so I expect OP getting a replacement should be pretty easy.
MrQuallzin@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•California exploring getting rid of the gas tax, replacing it with road charge program12·3 months agoThe electric tax doesn’t go towards fixing roads, though. That’s why it needs to change, otherwise the only people paying into that are non-electric car owners.
I totally agree that the government shouldn’t have more of our data, so I looked up how the pilot program worked and honestly I’m not too mad about it. There are 3 options:
-
OBD-II device that reads your odometer and sends that in to be tracked. It has an OPTIONAL GPS which, if turned on, will make sure to only tax the miles driven in California (so it would not apply to miles while out of state). If turned off then all miles are taxed.
-
Car Telemetry that’s already in newer cars that can phone home and send the numbers in (This is my lease favorite)
-
You simply take a picture of your odometer and submit it. No invasion of privacy and seeing where you’re going. This is the one I like the best.
