Supreme Court unveils new ethics code for justices
TheStreet's J.D. Durkin brings the latest business headlines from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange as markets close for trading Monday, November 13. Full Video Transcript Below: J.D. DURKIN: I'm J.D. Durkin, reporting from the New York Stock Exchange. Stocks were mixed to close out today's session. The Dow closed up just over 50 points, the Nasdaq closed down fractionally, and the S&P also closed fractionally lower. This comes after stocks shrugged off concerns over the state of the U.S. economy after Moody’s Investor Service downgraded the U.S. credit rating to negative. Wall Street is looking ahead to October inflation data out Tuesday. This figure will help give investors a clearer picture of the Federal Reserve’s next move on interest rates. In other news, the Supreme Court of the United States has adopted what it is calling a Code of Conduct for Justices. The new 14-page policy includes five different canons, or pillars, of the new rules. The justices released a statement saying, "The undersigned justices are promulgating this Code of Conduct to set out succinctly and gather in one place the ethics rules and principles that guide the conduct of the members of the Court." It has been reported that some justices, most notably Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, have received luxury gifts and trips without reporting them on financial disclosures. While the new Code of Conduct officially puts pen to paper, the justices seemed to downplay its significance, saying that it "largely represents a codification of principles that we have long regarded as governing our conduct." That'll do it for your daily briefing. From the New York Stock Exchange, I’m J.D. Durkin with TheStreet.

Supreme Court unveils new ethics code for justices
The U.S. Supreme Court is adopting a code of ethics for its justices for the first time ever.
*Popular restaurant chain makes move customers will hate*
One of the greatest thrills, as an American, is finding the best and biggest portion at a restaurant for the cheapest price point. It gives us purpose, meaning, and something to root for, especially when our favorite football team has a bye. Some might even say it unites us as a nation and makes our country the political and economic powerhouse that it is now. That, and the iPhone. Related: Apple may be planning an unprecedented update for this key product Cheap dining is something Americans will defend to the core. It's partly what's propelled McDonald's to such international success. It's why so many of our towns are peppered with strip malls and drive-thrus, rather than ornate cathedrals or municipal buildings with Corinthian columns and priceless 16th century frescoes. Americans favor convenience, efficiency, large portions and bargains. We don't have a lot of time for details or long savory moments. We like to keep things moving. One detail we do notice, however, is when prices go up. And one popular chain restaurant may be about to find that out the hard way.Red Lobster raises prices for popular dish Perhaps one of the most best examples of American ingenuity can be found at Darden Restaurants DRI, which owns and operates establishments like Olive Garden. Olive Garden is beloved for its quality meals that come in large quantities at reasonable price points. It offers unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks for $11.99. Thai Union Group-owned Red Lobster began offering a similar model with its Endless Shrimp, whereby guests could order different types of unlimited shrimp, like Garlic Shrimp Scampi or Shrimp Linguini Alfredo, for just $20. Red Lobster in Leesburg, Fla, on May 15. (Stephen M. Dowell/Orlando Sentinel/Tribune News Service via Getty Images) Orlando Sentinel/Getty Images The offer was brought back just in June in an effort to boost foot traffic and generate excitement about the brand. Now, however, the deal has almost been too good to be true from a financial standpoint. “We knew the price was cheap, but the idea was to bring more traffic in the restaurants,” Thai Union CFO Ludovic Regis Henri Garnier said in a the Q3 earnings call. “So we wanted to boost our traffic, and it didn't work." Thai Union reported a net income of $1.21 billion, down 52.34% year-over-year. The group is also expecting a $20 million loss on Red Lobster for the full 2023 year -- up from its original expectation of $17 million. To that end, Red Lobster will raise the prices of its unlimited shrimp to $25. “We want to keep it on the menu,” Garnier added. “And of course we need to be much more careful regarding what are the entry points and what is the price point we are offering for this promotion.” As for the future of Red Lobster, Garnier is cautiously optimistic. “We are really monitoring very closely the situation in order to improve the operation and the efficiency and the marketing of Red Lobster,” Garnier said. “And then on the flip side … we also have the support from the advisors to see, what are we doing in the mid-term and also in the long-term with the business? … So this right now is the focus we are working on.”

*Potential EV buyers are facing a hurdle from an unexpected place*
As a wide array of manufacturers from BMW BMWYY to Chevrolet GM offer electric cars in their lineup, one must think that the salespeople responsible for getting buyers in the driver's seat would know the in-and-outs of these new, innovative models. However, data from a recent J.D. Power report showed that people who bought normal gas-powered cars reported that they were much more satisfied with the buying experience than those who bought an electric vehicle. Related: Another legacy automaker has a powerful response to UAW auto union threat As if the data isn't damning enough, a new report shows that there is are still major hurdles in the way of EV adoption.Dealership woes According to a report by the Washington Post, many keen adopters of electric vehicles find that car dealers are uneducated and unenthusiastic about learning about this new technology. The paper spoke to several EV buyers who said that dealers tried to sell them gas cars instead, or gave them unclear or blatantly incorrect facts and answers about electric cars. Michael Young, a self-described "car guy," told the Post that he attempted to test drive a BMW i3 at his local dealership after reading about it online, but was met with a hesitant dealer. The BMW i3 BMW “You can’t drive that car on the highway,” Young recalled the salesperson told him, who then explained to him that the car couldn’t go over 45 miles per hour. “I was kind of dumbfounded by that,” Young said. Young would end up buying the car after convincing the sales person to go on a test drive ultimately bought the Beemer, but he was lucky in comparison to James Richards. Richards would be able to test drive EVs from Volkswagen, Tesla, Chevrolet and Ford, but said that found the dealer experience to be "cringeworthy," as dealers did not seem to know much about the electric models they were trying to sell. The Ford F-150 Lightning Ford What's more, when he did try to buy what he wanted – a Ford F-150 Lightning, the truck in the trim he wanted was back-ordered, in which the salesperson attempted to sell him an expensive trim with a high dealer markup. He ultimately bought a Tesla Model Y. Tesla TSLA, most notably, sells its cars directly to its consumers without the dealership network of other brands like Chevrolet or Ford, but said there was one clear difference between them. "[Tesla salespeople] strike you as EV geeks," Richards told the Post. "All the other dealerships: Ford, VW, the GM people — they didn’t seem like specialists.” Maya Batres, the owner of a used Fiat 500e said that the dealer that sold her the little Italian runabout offered a plan for oil changes and an extended warranty for a gas-powered car. The advent of EVs present dealers with an ultimatum, as the profit margins are slimmer, EVs takes longer to sell and their technology is unknown, which makes dealers weary. According to a survey conducted at the end of 2022 by the Sierra Club, 66% of dealers did not have an EV for sale, and that 30% of dealers said they wouldn't offer an EV, even if they could.

Potential EV buyers are facing a hurdle from an unexpected place
The transition to an electric car future has an unlikely enemy.
*Uber announces change that will impact drivers*
Uber is cracking down on unfair driver deactivations and ratings that are caused by false allegations from customers. The company announced in a Nov. 13 blog post that it's rolling out new features for Uber and Uber Eats apps to make sure that driver deactivations are “fair, accurate, and transparent.” "We have heard from drivers and couriers that they sometimes feel like Uber sides with customers, especially when it comes to complaints that cause them to lose access to their account,” the company said in the blog post. “We strive to promote safety for everyone who uses Uber — but the reality is that people sometimes make false accusations, often with the intent of getting a refund from Uber.”Related: Uber earnings miss forecasts, but group sees solid holiday quarter In one of its new features to tackle the issue, Uber UBER announced that it has expanded its Review Center in its app which would inform drivers about why their account was deactivated. It also gives drivers a chance to request an additional review of a deactivation decision and allows them to submit evidence such as audio or video to help dispute any claims. Uber also said that it released a new system that identifies customers who report false incidents and give negative feedback about drivers with the intent of getting refunds. “Allegations made by these customers will not be considered in drivers’ ratings or drivers’ or couriers’ account deactivation decisions,” wrote the company. Drivers on the platform are also receiving additional protection from false accusations of being under the influence. “Going forward, drivers whose accounts are at risk of permanent deactivation for drug-impaired driving will be provided the option to take a drug test through a nationwide partnership with LabCorp. Uber will cover the cost of the testing, whatever the outcome,” the post read. It is no surprise that Uber is doubling down on driver deactivations. The new features come after a survey was released earlier this year where 810 Uber and Lyft drivers in California were asked about their experiences driving for the ride-hailing apps. The survey found that a disproportionate amount of drivers that were deactivated on the platforms were people of color: 65% were drivers of color compared to 57% of drivers who were white. The survey also found that 30% of the drivers who were deactivated were not given any explanation by Uber or Lyft explaining why their account was shut down, and 42% of the deactivated drivers were told they were deactivated because of customer complaints.

Uber also said that it released a new system that identifies customers who report false incidents and give negative feedback about drivers with the intent of getting refunds. “Allegations made by these customers will not be considered in drivers’ ratings or drivers’ or couriers’ account deactivation decisions,” wrote the company. Drivers on the platform are also receiving additional protection from false accusations of being under the influence. “Going forward, drivers whose accounts are at risk of permanent deactivation for drug-impaired driving will be provided the option to take a drug test through a nationwide partnership with LabCorp. Uber will cover the cost of the testing, whatever the outcome,” the post read. It is no surprise that Uber is doubling down on driver deactivations. The new features come after a survey was released earlier this year where 810 Uber and Lyft drivers in California were asked about their experiences driving for the ride-hailing apps. The survey found that a disproportionate amount of drivers that were deactivated on the platforms were people of color: 65% were drivers of color compared to 57% of drivers who were white. The survey also found that 30% of the drivers who were deactivated were not given any explanation by Uber or Lyft explaining why their account was shut down, and 42% of the deactivated drivers were told they were deactivated because of customer complaints.

Uber announces change that will impact drivers
Uber is cracking down on unfair driver deactivations and ratings that are caused by false allegations from customers.

*Amazon's top-selling handheld vacuum with 101,000+ ratings that 'outperformed Dyson' is on early Black Friday sale*
TheStreet aims to feature only the best products and services. If you buy something via one of our links, we may earn a commission. It’s likely that you already have a full-size vacuum cleaner, but what about a cordless handheld vacuum for cleaning hard-to-reach and above-the-floor areas? These handy machines have compact designs that are specifically made to clean things like vehicle interiors, furniture, and stairs with ease. And we just so happened to find a popular pick on sale at Amazon. With tons of options available, it can be hard to narrow down your search to a durable, affordable, and reliable model, but right now, the Black+Decker 20V Cordless Handheld Vacuum is on sale for just $59 ahead of Black Friday. That’s a 37%% discount and brings the price down to the lowest it has been in a while, meaning now is the perfect time to buy. Over 8,000 people have already purchased one in the past 30 days, and it’s backed by over 70,000 five-star ratings, so you know it’s good. It’s also the no.1 bestseller in Amazon’s handheld vacuums category. Several shoppers went as far as to say that it “outperformed Dyson,” and one added that it even “outlasted” their handheld Dyson. Black+Decker 20V Cordless Handheld Vacuum, $59 (was 94) at Amazon Amazon This handheld vacuum—also known as a Dustbuster by the brand—uses a long-reach pivoting nozzle and a powerful motor to suck up everything in its path. It removes dirt, debris, hair, and crumbs from a variety of surfaces a full-size vacuum wouldn’t be able to reach and is ideal for spot-cleaning messes. You’ll also receive a removable brush attachment for the nozzle that works well to remove lint and hair on upholstery and other fabrics. Its dust bowl holds up to 20-oz of debris and is easily emptied by removing the nozzle so you don’t have to touch any of the dirt with your hands. The filter should be removed and washed often to prolong its life and improve efficiency. That way you can use it over and over, although it should be replaced at least once every six months depending on how often you use the vacuum. Shoppers say the Dusbuster runs for approximately 10 to 20 minutes on a full battery and takes about three hours to fully charge on its docking station. It might seem short, but one five-star reviewer said “this is plenty of time for small jobs.” “This thing is a lifesaver…it's fun to use, easy to empty, and gets into the places where crumbs build up,” wrote another shopper. “It's the perfect tool/companion to keep my surroundings from descending into (too much) chaos. It lives in my bedroom and eventually, I hope to have one for every room.” Anyone who’s looking for a compact and lightweight handheld vacuum to clean small messes should turn to this Black+Decker Dustbuster while it’s on sale for just $59 at Amazon. Take this as your opportunity to shop pre-Black Friday deals before the rush.

*What's the hardest video game puzzle to beat without a guide?*
I'd have to go with either getting the Sheep Attack in Super Mario RPG, or finding Grate Guy's casino in SMRPG. I had the player's guide, thankfully, but how are you supposed to know that you get the Lamb's Lure by using a Mystery Egg 10 times as Toadstool equipped with the B'tub Ring, then get Sheep Attack by using Lamb's Lure 48 times? For the casino, you have to defeat a Chomp Chomp in a certain area and jump three times to make an invisible platform appear. Lufia II's 'World's Most Difficult Trick' is up there too, which is a sliding block puzzle with 116 steps to complete. And the goat puzzle from Broken Sword is so infamous it has its own Wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Goat_Puzzle submitted by /u/tpphypemachine to r/gaming [link] [comments]
