not really tho Biden cucked to rgypt and gave them all our stuff which makes sense but is still cucked
Thanks in large part to the Biden-Harris administration, Egypt's financial woes are now a thing of the past. In March, at Washington's urging, the International Monetary Fund approved a long delayed $8 billion loan to Egypt.
That loan persuaded the EU to provide Egypt with loans and grants totaling another $8 billion shortly thereafter.
Had the US not been involved, given the Sisi regime's failed economic leadership, none of that cash would have found its way to Egypt.
In the past, the US could have been expected to respond to Egypt's slap in the face by suspending its annual $1.3 billion military aid package.
If the Egyptians prefer the Chinese, then the Chinese can give them handouts.
Instead, Wednesday the State Department announced that for the first time in three years, it is going to hand over the entire sum with no strings attached.
Between 2021-2023, the US withheld hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid to Cairo due to the Sisi regime's lousy human rights record.
But mere days after Cairo opted to go with Washington's chief superpower rival to modernize its air force, the State Department announced that it is rewarding Egypt for its treachery.
"This decision is important to advancing regional peace and Egypt's specific and ongoing contributions to US national security priorities, particularly to finalize a cease-fire agreement for Gaza, bring the hostages home, surge humanitarian assistance for Palestinians in need, and help bring an enduring end to the Israel-Hamas conflict."
This State Department announcement holds the key to understanding why Egypt isn't worried about double-crossing Washington.
Far from rewarding Egypt for its actions since Hamas invaded Israel on Oct. 7, the US should have sanctioned it.
Without Egypt, Hamas would never have been able to build up the massive arsenal of missiles and weapons that it used to invade Israel on Oct. 7, and to wage war against Israel until today.
Since Israel seized control over the Gaza side of the Gaza-Egypt border in May, its forces have discovered more than 50 subterranean tunnels that cross into Egypt.
One such tunnel was 10 feet tall and wide enough for a truck to drive through.
The Egyptian side of the border is controlled by a consortium called the al-Organi Group. Egyptian President Sisi's son, General Mahmoud Sisi, is a silent partner in Organi's operations.
These include getting paid tens of millions of dollars for all goods and people traversing the border with Gaza.
Hamas is the official Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. Sisi rose to power in 2013 by ousting the Muslim Brotherhood regime from power and they remain mortal enemies.

/uj For real, anti-woke warriors are the biggest fake g*mers I've ever met. They don't know shit about any of the games they play because they're all completely media illiterate and get so triggered whenever they see a rainbow in a game that their brain stops functioning and they stop paying attention to anything else.

《Takeaways》
●Valkyrae reveals that she has a cameo in the Minecraft movie.
●While filming this cameo, she says she saw Jason Momoa "mistreat" the crew.
●She says Momoa was "angry, really mad and yelling".
Streamer Valkyrae says that she saw Jason Momoa "mistreat" the crew of the Minecraft movie. She says she saw this was shooting a cameo for the film, during which she alleges to have seen Momoa "yelling" at workers behind the scenes.
As spotted by Insider Gaming, Valkyrae - real name Rachell Marie Hofstetter - revealed this during a stream with fellow content creator JasonTheWeen. Here, she reveals that seeing Momoa on set was her worst celebrity experience, and that she would "not be happy working under these conditions".
"So, Minecraft movie. I have a cameo in the Minecraft movie that's coming out," Valkyrae explains. "I would have to say, Jason Momoa. I just saw him mistreat some of the crew, and it was pretty disappointing. It was a very emotional scene so maybe he was still in character, I don't know. But I was kind of surprised by how he treated some of the crew.
"He was just really mad at them that they weren't doing something right, like setting up like the shot," she continues. "He was just angry, really mad and yelling. So I was like, man, this is not a good work environment. I would not be happy working under these conditions."
The Minecraft Movie Has Faced Issues Since Its Reveal
Momoa's alleged behaviour on set isn't the only issue the Minecraft movie has faced. The first trailer dropped last week and was met with near-universal backlash across the gaming community. From the casting to the visuals, fans seem to think this film is going to miss the mark. The comments on the trailer are overwhelmingly negative too, and it seems like many have already written this off as a miss, not joining the ranks of successful video game adaptations like The Super Mario Bros. Movie and the Sonic series.
In any case, Minecraft is coming to theatres next April. It remains to be seen if it can win back some good will with fans as we see more of the movie.
《Minecraft》
The best-selling video game of all time, Minecraft is a sandbox title developed by Mojang that bridges the gap between video games and education. Whether you want to raid dungeons and build whatever you choose, there's something for everyone across almost every gaming platform you can think of.

OpenAI's new o1 model is a BIG breakthrough in AI intelligence, if IQ tests say anything.

I gave it the Norway Mensa IQ test, and it blows other AIs out of the water.
I'm surprised!... Because there hadn't been public progress in the last 6mo.

This is one of the original posts by the supposed scammer
In another still up post the supposed scammer talks more about their hard situation.
Users are not happy and continue to call out the supposed scammer:
[This person is a scammer, and was sent money before.

Context:
A user makes a post on /r/doordash_drivers titled "you get what you paid for" with an image of a customer complaining they didn't get notified that a dessert was out of stock, with the dasher retorting "You tipped me a penny." Comments in the post are generally supportive of the dasher, except for a few disgruntled customers, notably... (Labels added to commenters on the first thread for clarity)
(B) He paid for the food to the restaurant not driver to update him if they were out of something (11 upmarseys)
(A) He paid the restaurant and he paid the driver to deliver his order, you ding bat. If the driver expects a tip perhaps he should offer a modicum of customer service. Crazy idea I know! A lot of customers adjust the tip once the orders complete. Why should a customer be expected to tip for good service that hasn't even happened yet. Earn your tips!! (-3)
(OP) It's a shopping order dingbat (9) ...
(A) Yeah? Perhaps this driver has learnt a valuable lesson. If you choose to work in a service industry where you're depending on tips offer a good service. Not rocket science is it. (-10)
(D) Found the salty customer who tipped 1 cent, sorry you had to go without your dessert the other night. It's all gonna be okay because you are just so sweet enough already you could afford to skip one. (6) ...
(A) None of this has anything to do with the customer, it's not the customers job to supplement the income of Uber and DoorDash drivers. If you depend on tips, offer a good service and hopefully you'll do well. If as a driver you don't like that, do another job, you can't expect the customer to compensate you because you work for a lousy, low paying company and then get mad at them when they don't tip you "enough". (-5)
(F) Now that you understand how the pay structure works for delivery drivers, do you support drivers being paid 4 or 5 dollars an hour, do you believe that's an ethical practice? This is the way Doordash designed their system to work. If you don't like it, don't use Doordash. (7)
(A) Why are you working for a company that has a pay structure that you don't find beneficial or ethical? (-1)
(F) Because bills gotta get paid. There are very few if any people who do a job purely for the love of it. If you want people to go above and beyond for you then pay them for that effort. If you dont you'll get the simplest pick up and drop off of all time and you'll have to accept that. Asking for a driver to communicate with you is asking for more than required (3)
(A) If you want better tips try being proactive instead of being reactive and you may get better results. Or don't, keep hating your customers, getting shit tips, being miserable and bitching on Reddit. Whatever floats your boat! It's your life! (-1) ...
(G) Would you b-word at your usps guy for you missing Amazon items? Doubt it. Same situation.
(A) Amazon drivers don't expect tips or go to Reddit to cry about them. Plus the driver said he would let the customer know if any of his orders were unavailable and help him with substitutes. So, no, not the same thing at all. (0)
(G) They also get payed a salaried wage and aren't commissioned delivery. Don't forget your tips aren't a tip it's a bid for your service disgusting as a handout. And you're defending that. (6)
(A) Tips are tips, do a good job and you'll usually get one. Act like a self entitled little brat and you end up with a penny, it's called capitalism. If you don't like that get a job where you're not depending on tips. (-4)
(G) No. No their not. We don't get paid enough, tips,are our commission fee disguised as us asking for a handout. A tip is when someone is being paid enough and you're happy with their service. You wouldn't you a server before they serve you. But you live your life bud. (3)
(A) Who's fault is it that you don't get paid enough? Why are you putting that on the customer? Don't like it, get another job. The customer already pays a massively inflated price for using DoorDash and now you want them to subsidize your income because the company you chose to work for doesn't pay enough? 😂 (-1)
(the A & G slapfight goes on and on after this...)
More juicy fights from A in their thread. I'd add them, but this post is long enough as it is. More disgruntled customer comments:
So you didn't do your job and then wonder why you get shitty tips? (-10)
odd, the tip is decided before he even started the job. so don't you have it the opposite? (9)
He did accept the job but the customer tipping a penny is a slap in the face. Only a complete piece of shit would think that's acceptable to do to someone. There is nothing immoral with doing the bare minimum for bare minimum pay. You want professional service then pay for it, otherwise drive your own fat butt to the store and pick it up or accept what you get. (8)
The tip is not compensation. It's a literal gift. (-2)
No, it's a gratuity for doing someone a service. If you're not grateful for them delivering to you, why should they give a shit about the level of service you get? He picked it up and delivered it, they got what they paid for. (4)
Heck are you on about; there's nothing immoral about it. Customer tipped 1 cent, he delivered 1 cent service.
All our job is: pick up a sealed bag and leave it on someone's porch. If you want me to cross reference the receipt with employees and ensure everything is there I will do so, but at least give 10-20%.
If you don't like it go pick up your own darn food (10)
Do your job. The tip is literally optional. (-10)
Yeah, just as tipping has always been "optional".
If the pizza man shows up on my doorstep and I take the food from his hand and close the door in his face: I'm an butthole.
If I leave a messy table at the end of the night and leave no cash for the server: I'm an butthole.
Why is it suddenly so different when you don't have to look the person in the eye? There is a reason it is called "suggested gratuity", it's because that's what everyone else gives and it is what you should give too. At the end of the day I'm still going to do my job right; I have a 5 star rating, 100% completion rate, and 0 contract violations.
I'll promptly drop this if you aren't from the states, as where I live tipping is socially expected and service workers are payed to reflect this. Is it the best system; probably not, ideally a service worker makes a livable wage regardless of tips.
If you are, you know just as well as I do that leaving no tip is not normal; and if you don't that makes you an butthole. (7)
Some other dashers decide that OP is an idiot, and give their own opinion:
(OP)Here's a penny, give it to someone who gives a shit (8)
(OP) Do you think I care? (2)
Takes more effort to tip a penny which is why no sane person should care. (11)
Then fine, they're both pricks (-8)
