I heard a good The Daily episode about how in North America it's like totally forced on those touch screens now? God bless Europe. I could not imagine tipping random people all day 20% for stuff that usually doesn't warrant it.
I do think we have seen plenty of cases where violent political upheaval just happens because of rage and frustration at corruption/mismanagement/tyranny, and then bad things happen to a lot of people and the dice are thrown, and what a bunch of eggheads think about it matters little in the angry moment
Not that anyone has particularly advocated for it here, but that’s my issue with proponents of accelerationism. Because there’s never any consideration for what happens to everyone else between steps 1 and 4 or the chance that they’ll even get to step 4.

You go in the cage, cage goes in the water, you go in the water. Shark's in the water, our shark.
We're probably five or six ketamine-inspired changes to the Twitter API past embeds working.
And probably for the best, less likely for accidental orange exposure or abuse of clickbait as you have to spend time explaining what your link is and thus you have to understand it beyond "YOU WON'T BELIEVE ACTOR JOINS FILM"

yeah the touch screen with the tip option is pretty ubiquitous. sometimes they'll say 'it's going to ask you about a tip' or 'it's not necessary, but if you'd like to add a tip...' and then a lot of places they'll prompt you with 'it's just going to ask you a question here'.

God I could not imagine the pressure. I will dead eye a cashier and say "I am not donating a dollar to a tax write off for the megacorp sorry" and would do the same for being asked to tip 20% for like someone who hands you a premade sandwich from the deli but I'm broken inside.

Didn't some restaurant default the tip to 35% banking on inconvenience and social pressure to not change it?

It’s not forced or mandatory iirc but thanks to unregulated enshittification, the POS devices default to a tip percentage and you have to manually opt-out, and the interfaces are increasingly difficult and finicky on purpose
It’s the tiny invisible X on the popup ad, only now in real life and costing you real money

I feel like at some point this just forces people to directly subsidize a business's employees. That's wild!!

they've really done a clever end run where the workers are underpaid and expect those tips to make up for it, so i'm the bad guy if i don't want it to be like this

I had a big long post catastrophizing about me (edit: hypothetically) being targeted by an online hate mob for completely spurious reasons but the thread change ate it, so

My tip amount is inversely proportional to the interface, which feels kind of shitty to the worker who did nothing to bring it about, sometimes, but also I simply don't want to reward anything that inverts the order of the percentages.

Yeah agreed on both counts.
