I was in some European city and there is one Chinese restaurant serving hot pot. So I wanted to try it. I ordered and selected the items I want for around 50€. The waitress asked me : "is that all? Do you want the menu?". So I was wondering if I didn't order enough. At the end, what I ordered was enough for at least 3 people. I was in a table for 4 people and it was full with all the dishes. The waitress then asked me if she need to bring a bowl of rice!

They brought the sauces and there was garlic on the plate. The odor ruined the whole meal for me. I couldn't eat most of it and I was disappointed as I don't like wasting food.

Ah they posting adult content? I didn't read the article and I thought they were using OF for their music.

What are the benefits for him? All that he do is for his own good. At first I thought he was saying lies so that he can get elected. But now that he is elected, what will he gain from doing that? Won't American suffer so does his assets?

Yes I am interested in the details.

The tipping culture is very rooted in Americans. I was at restaurant in Europe and there was a customer (certainly American). He ate during 30 minutes or less, the waiter was nice but he wasn't doing it for tips and the customer only saw him when he ordered the food and at payment. The prices are high end.

When he paid he was surprised that there was no tipping options (unfortunately we started seeing them in some European countries) and asked him to pay another 10€ as a tip.

If you are paid $15/h that is 20% of $75. Don't you think that the clients you will serve will pay way more than that during an hour?

Waiters are against it as they may get way more than if they were paid by the owner. Also they automatically get raises when menu prices increases.

What blows my mind is that American do tip everywhere and also give cash to some workers at the end of the year (mail man, garbage man,.. Etc).

Should we really import products that are out of season though?

That's how it works. Imported products will be much expensive and local products will be able to compete and people will buy them instead of the ones coming from China.

That is the theory, but are there local products for the things that the US is importing? I don't think so. Also local companies may just align their prices with the imported stuff.

Censorship still exists in lemmy. I got banned from an instance just because I said some things that weren't aligning with far left ideas. I was one of the active members of that instance (we were very few) on non political communities.

I made a political post and one of the administrators wasn't OK with it and started insulting me and then banned me from the whole instance.

J'ai fini la première saison de Taxi. Je n'ai pas trouvé un truc qui me fait accrocher et je vais certainement regarder autre chose. Je déteste le personnage de Devito. Friends a peut être copié le personnage de Joey de cette série, il y a un personnage qui veut devenir acteur et un autre personnage idiot et italien.

Je suis presque à la fin de la première saison de Gomorrah et elle est pas mal.

Many rich people are "donating" to avoid paying taxes and it another way for marketing. You are the proof of that, you are defending and promoting her.

Billionaires like her are the reason we have poverty and charity associations
