She's a good actor and I don't blame her for bailing when it looked like every scene was going to reference the rape gangs of Turkana IV.

I got into "wet shaving" a couple years ago. I still have all my stuff and still occasionally use my safety razor. I've also upgraded my kit with a straight razor so I can get really nice straight beard/necklines if I want to put in the effort.The straight razor uses the same disposable blades so it's very convenient. I don't go all out every day, there's a lot of technique involved and I usually just clean up my neck with a cheaper razor. But it's nice to have the kit to pamper myself if I want.

I'd disinfect before/after every use personally but I don't use mine every day. It's pretty simple, just soak it all in some isopropyl alcohol for a few minutes then wipe everything down. The blades are dirt cheap so there's no reason to hang onto them, they start dulling pretty quickly.

Enjoy the shave! It can be a pretty wholesome, meditative experience, may your blades never be dull.

Then your restaurant is too expensive to operate, this is very basic economics.

I don't go around inquiring what everyone pays but I try to frequent local, reputable business so I'm going to say, "yes, as much I can get in the capitalist dystopia we operate in." There are several locally that actually try really hard to compensate their staff, including a couple co-ops, they're pretty vocal about their tipping policies and the benefits they give their workers, they aren't hard to find if you look around. They are slightly more expensive but the quality is usually there.

Kind of unrelated but I've noticed here locally (I can't really comment on any other regions as I'm not that familiar with them) there seem to be a handful of successful restaurateurs that own several restaurants that underwrite or try out new concepts. If it's successful it ends up staying around, if it's not successful they usually know within the first year. I'm not sure if that's how it is everywhere or if we just have a cabal of young chefs in my city but it's something I've noticed. There are several brick and mortar stores that started out as food trucks and grew into more so it's not like you have to open a big storefront initially either. Start your concept and bring in investors if you need to but if you can't pay employees it's not a viable business model.

FWIW servers can do really well in nicer places, If you want to see what a restaurant really pays look at how the kitchen staff is compensated.

Random teenagers can absolutely google "download exploits" and have them available, that's pretty much always been the case..

https://www.exploit-db.com/

Full disclosure was a thing once upon a time, where exploits and proofs of concept were dumped publicly, forcing companies to fix the issue or be compromised. That's mostly been moved away from in favor of responsible disclosure, giving companies time to patch the issue before it's known publicly.

Maybe we should be moving back to full disclosure to force these companies to take data security seriously. Or at least then we could point to a known vulnerability as proof the company is shitty and is neglecting their infrastructure.

Restaurants are notoriously difficult to run profitably (non-paywalled: https://archive.is/cQ2pB). I'm a patron of a lot of local restaurants and they definitely open and close a lot more than pretty much any other business I can think of (except maybe vape shops, remember those?).

Landlords are definitely an issue that needs to be handled as well but that doesn't absolve the employer of paying their people a living wage. Tipping culture in general needs to die off.

If that's not possible but they believe in their business, they could consider a different business model, maybe become an employee co-op so the employees have a stake and could see the fruits of their own labor one day.

The best part of about a "tip tax" is that it would be completely optional. If you don't want to pay it, simply eat at home or make some other arrangements.

I'm experiencing the opposite, AirBnB has gotten ridiculous with their pricing. After all the fees and hassle it ends up cheaper staying at an actual hotel.

In the Midwest U.S. but that's been my experience visiting FL and NV as well. AirBnB just isn't that competitive anymore.

Not to argue semantics but ICE are definitely pigs, they're all recruited out of LEO and Border Patrol. They not standard-issue cops but they're all cut from the same piece of shit-cloth.

Agree that they're worse though, it takes a special kind of shit to see everything going on and think, "i want to be part of that!'

I'm pretty sure it's one of the main reasons the right has always tried to crack jokes and minimize French influence in the U.S.

Wouldn't want the Americana to see their cousins have big brass balls and will torch anything in their way if their ruling class fucks around too much.

That's part of what the republican partys done that's made them so successful. If your representatives don't represent you, primary them.
