Comment Never reach it (Score 3, Informative) 37

The time they're calculating doesn't include sat around waiting for a job, and that is the way their drivers spend a lot of their time.

There's a reason they can get you a cab in less time than a proper taxi, and that is it. They are sitting around empty, being tempted to pick up illegally to get work.

Unfortunately for the customers and other road users, if they run into someone or something whilst going along a one way street the wrong way (they're famous for it over here) and they have picked up a passenger without a booking through the phone program, they're not insured!

Customers need to learn and understand all the crazy things about this toxic company and their predatory pricing, oversupply, complete disregard for road safety and the disdain for properly regulated authorities investigating their illegal business.

Can't wait to see the back of them in the UK.

Why not make a service that passes app based jobs to the local cab companies?

Multinational tax dodging venture companies are ten a penny, no matter how catchy their names.
Local companies all have CC processing, GPS location of cars, ordering on the app and all that novelty stuff that keeps the kids using Oobah.

Plus, local companies didn't keep a hack of 57,000,000 people's accounts quiet for over a year by paying a silly sum of $100,000 and an NDA for the pleasure of false security LOLOLOLOL
Jus' sayin'

Just for my own protection, I'm going to make it public that I got a copy on 5.25" floppy in the 90's.

It was called the Jolly Rodger's Cookbook when I got it.

I tried making thermite by filing down soda cans and boiling iron nails in a pan.
Didn't work.

I also have plans for making nuclear/dirty weapons ... I don't intend to try anything from those. Even if I had the gear, there are some things that are just information to think about rather than useful tools to point at an enemy.

Information has always wanted to be free. Nobody should use information like this.
Why do we live in a society that makes people want to use this information?
