The only time in recent memory in the US that I’ve had to sign a receipt was at restaurants. I’ve always been under the impression that this is for the tip, authorizing them to charge an additional amount.

I can often work out the meaning of these comics even if I don’t understand at first. I’ve given this one a good hour and can’t figure it out. Can anyone help?

I mean sure, that would be great, but I don’t have that.

It is an issue for me because the only machine I have is my daily driver laptop, and I’d really rather not take up even that 35GB if it can be helped.

OK, this bot is very useful. Thanks to … whoever.

You are quite right in that it is not a cheap VMS. Since I don’t know 100% how to set thing up, though, the cost might be worth my time.

I may just pay for it and report back as a service to the community.

Ok, but I’ve only a remote idea of what you’re saying. Can you elaborate?

Thanks, I’ll look into this stuff.

I’ve been waiting for the free Oracle cloud to open up (I know that’s super rare). Is there a goof VPS you can recommend?

Yeah, that’s partially why I’d need info as to if this Lemmy host is legit. I have the domain (technically), and if the price jumps I’d be ok with that. I paid upfront for a couple years at $1/yr. Yeah, the registrar might screw me over, but at the price I’ve paid, there’s not a lot of risk. I really need feedback on the Lemmy host.
