You are expecting dominos to do it for you. That’s literally what you are asking. They aren’t going to do that for you because they make more money if you ignore the “deals”. Even a tiny barrier is going to keep out some number of people that don’t find value in spending 30 seconds to save 25% on a $30 tab because they have the money to not even notice, which increases profitability. Their line goes up. Our system forces all these companies to worry about that line going up.

That said, they aren’t trying to hide it from you, it is the largest thing on their store page, and their people on the phone will happily tell you about it.

Someone else made the same analogy, it is just like going to a drive through and ordering a burger, fries, and drink separately and not asking for a combo. Same products, but most places it will cost you more to order them separately than to order the combo.

If you are still mad about it, you aren’t mad at Dominos, you are mad at the core of our current economic system.

Dude could have saved like $6+tax and gotten more food, and is still arguing that nothing could have been done…

Lead a horse to water and all that…

What’s mildly infuriating here is OP… People are trying to explain how you could have saved almost 1/3 of your purchase price and you just argue with them and keep shouting from your soapbox.

Unfortunately, price shopping is a part of every transaction if you are trying to get the best deal. If you aren’t invested enough to read the largest banner on the shop website to save almost 1/3 of your total, then getting the best price was clearly not a concern when you ordered. Yes, you are expected to do that yourself, just like buying anything else in the commerce system we have been using for decades. It’s real boomer/privileged energy expecting that to just be done for you.

Ah I miss 1st and 15th… It was so great. My jib recently changed to every other Friday it it has royally fucked up all my auto-bill-pays…

Hobble at best.

Find a member of staff and ask where the “human bathrooms” are. Don’t let them leave until they explain. Bonus points if you piss your pants while they are trying to explain.

Incredibly easy to bypass as well…

Make it look like an old-timey log mill with the fan as the saw blade.

Well i’m definitely not clicking that at work.

My favorite kind of math is dick math. Thank you.

This has nothing to do with the vast majority of what you said, but I misread “bear assault kit” as "bear assault KILT and now I want a bear assault kilt. To wear in case of bear assault.

Okay but what happened in 1989 when it was 1% lower?

You’re not alone, I thought the same thing… They don’t look that similar, they would make a really trash “spot the difference” challenge.

wtf even is Birdeye? Our work e-mails have all been being spammed by them claiming we have bad reviews and they can help. I’ve been ignoring them mostly, but noticed the text of the reviews reek of being AI written and none of them show up on any of the review sites (that we keep track of anyway). Is this some LLM spam company basically?

I dunno man, can’t know unless you try the flags. Might work. It worked for that guy.

And that wasn’t enough to force you to try Linux again? Does Billy Gates have to sodomize your dog, or where is the line? lol

Have you tried those flags tho?

A combination of Lutris, Bottles, and Proton GE has covered me so far. I find Lutris more gaming focused, and I have used Bottles a lot for little windows programs that aren’t really games (as an example, some stuff I have for making TTRPG maps and tokens and stuff that I could probably find alternatives to, but they work fine in Bottles so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ).

This looks like some shit i’d build in the first night in minecraft when i run out of stair blocks.

Gaming on Linux is really not as bad as all that unless you play a lot of games with invasive anti-cheat; which honestly, even if you never try Linux and stick to windows, I’d recommend avoiding or at least having a separate windows install for. I’m not a fan of having to install a rootkit on my computer that constantly monitors everything I do just to prove to some mega-corp I’m an honest player (especially considering how poorly even those work to stop cheaters).

I’d highly recommend anyone upset with microsoft to at least setup dual boot with one of the popular gaming specific Linux distos and trying it out. Even if you did a few years ago, it has really come a long way in the last few years.
