What makes you think it was flagged for a large tip specifically, rather than just an unusually high transaction?

It still confused me how they would know it was a $20 steak and $80 tip versus 5x $20 steaks and no tip. It would appear the same, a $100 transaction at Bob’s Steakhouse.

Wouldn’t they just see the total?

Eventually people will say that about the current options lol.

There should be no default percent options at all. None.

‘complete transaction’ or ‘add optional tip’.

This is true. What I’m saying is I respect the willingness to ‘do it anyway’ attitude.

Canada didn’t leave the UN.

Would be cool if they said fuck you to the EU.

People kept worrying about Canada breaking a UN rule but Canada said fuck it and did it anyway.

Did this actually happen to you? I’ve been to, and even smoked weed in (discreetly), Germany many times as a tourist without issue. It was just annoying that it was technically illegal…but no one ever attempted to drug test me or ask me about drug use at all.

Is this real legalization like in Canada, or fake legalization like most other places?

If a tourist can’t buy it from a store, fly to a different city/state domestically with it, and then smoke it at a designated airport smoking area outside the terminal… I struggle to see that as full ‘legalization’.

If you are prohibited from doing all those things, it just seems like a different version of prohibition. Step in the right direction though, sure.

But… alcohol should be legal, no? Despite the harm it causes, prohibition simply does not work.

Cannabis can also cause harm (albeit less harm than alcohol) but should also still be legal. And other drugs like fentanyl (arguably) cause more harm than alcohol…but should also be legal.

Prohibition is literally never a realistic solution to any drug or drug problems. Not a single country has ever had success.

The freezing point of water seems a hell of a lot more relevant to what humans consider ‘cold’…which is why it’s the zero. The boiling point of water isn’t the zero in Celsius after all.

Also ‘cold’ as a concept is often represented with symbols related to frozen water such as snow flakes and icicles.

I think it works well in Switzerland.

Can we ban ‘skate stoppers’ intended to physically injure skaters who attempt the feature too?

Like, if it’s designed from the start to not be super skateable that’s fine. But adding things after the spot is already established that will cause people to ‘catch’ and fall seems a bit messed up.

Had you accidentally turned on ‘avoid highways’ by chance? Because the one time that happened to me it was.

I take a 2min pause of silence over 30 seconds of ads any day.

I think some of them were at that music festival…

Thanks, I was finally able to make my colourblind brain see it.

Is this one of those things that colourblind people see right through? Because I just see a lady sitting in her vehicle with legs a similar colour to the seat. What am I missing here?

I also prefer the actual legalization of all drugs. Decriminalization is barely better than prohibition with inconsistent purity and implicit support of organized crime.

Edit: Oh sorry, I misread. I’m curious as to why you support decriminalization but not legalization. Also, aren’t many forms of opiates already legal when sourced correctly? Like for medical applications and stuff?

The only drug specifically mentioned in the article is cannabis lol. As such, no not Portuguese, but I am from somewhere much more progressive than Portugal when it comes to cannabis regulations. Can a random tourist even go buy a joint legally from a store in Portugal yet? If any adult can’t go buy it from a store legally without any further justification, then it isn’t actually legal.

Yep, backwards ass drugs laws caused this. Fuck prohibition. I always do whatever I can to help Korean and Japanese people get high as fuck whenever they are in a more free country than their home.
