I agree conceptually. Experientially, I would say losing housing (legally occupied or not) is far more dramatic and life changing than being inconvenienced over the loss of a torrent tracker.

Source: In my drinking, I've found myself homeless (due to choices I made, no doubt). Wildly, losing access to torrents (which I've also done) is somewhat less consequential than being on the streets.

Of course. It lacks Joe Pesci "dressed like a chicken."

The difficulty is that tipped employees, in some parts of the United States, can (and do) make as little as $2.13/hr. Laws ostensibly exist to ensure that tipped employees make minimum wage (federally mandated at $7.25/hr), but, due to a variety of factors, this isn't always the case (to say nothing of the fact that $7.25/hr is hardly a living wage).

I spent 25+ years in food service. It was a lot of fun and seemingly good money when I was younger. Now that I'm 40, things like dependable pay and benefits trump the fun I had waiting tables and bartending all those years.

I thought it was Keke Rosberg. The mustache checks.
