#nyc: has a Roxy screening ever started on time?

Just an utter turnoff to me how much Uber will popup, nag, and advertise to me while I am TRYING to buy something. Muscle memory should be rewarded but it’s punished.

The babies from that 2010 doc Babies. Where are they now

@tldlist did you just rebuild the whole site on NextJS? Congrats! Snappy.

@llegrarosenberg Are you the first to clown on all seven continents?

[Jacob Ford @unitof]

I am asking once again: is there a compliance reason cookie consents MUST float over content?

Why can they not just be in your template, at the top?

It has transcended frustration into hilarity how little @Uber_Support knows about their own product, including their own Support UI.

This chat began over a promotion code error, but now we are discussing how I should attach a screenshot showing that I cannot attach screenshots.
