Water supply is even more important than have a reliable shit hole. Without water our entire existence goes out the window. No flushing toilets, no washing hands, no drinking water, no cooking, no cleaning, and no bathing. I’ve had power, sewage, and water be unavailable several times. Water is by far the worst. I’d take a week long power outage or a few days without sewage over water being out for a single day.
If you’re wealthy enough to waste a lot of money on a fridge you aren’t buying one of these abominations. Its going to be a built in like sub-zero.
I honestly believe these fridges are not being bought in large quantities and are part of the tech bubble.
Right, I’m not arguing that landlords are good. They seem to be a symptom of a system set up to encourage their shitty behavior.
I do wonder if a housing co-op is protected by law in some way. Or more likely it relies on a few people having good intentions who are running it. A housing co-op with no intent of profiting, ever, would be a good system imo.
Mod removed my post without reason. Maybe cussing offended them.
The market seems to self select for bad landlords. All the well intentioned ones I know got burned and stopped renting.
People not understanding the actual cost of owning and maintaining a house is my only argument for landlords. Or if you maintain it yourself it’s a knowledge and time requirement.
Not saying landlords did a great job maintaining the rentals I’ve lived in. But there was definitely a point in my life where renting made more sense than owning a house.
We really need more control on rent prices so only high density housing is rentable. Or something, I don’t have answers for why my shitty house is worth 70% more than it was 5 years ago.
Everyone can already access coding.
I don’t want to simp for Target too much, but the union DCs I’ve been in seem to treat their employees pretty good. No idea about the stores though, I’ve only seen their distribution centers.
It’s worse than I could’ve imagined. The dipshit literally gets giddy and throws the nazi salute twice. This is nowhere near a strangely timed photo.
Dumb question, he’s not president yet.
I only lurk on Reddit these days, but if old reddit goes away I’ll be completely done with it.
That’s sort of my feeling as well. Putting my tin foil hat on. I think it’s why I’m in the group that isn’t being fucked with yet.
Me too. I’m also on Google Fi still for reasons, I know there are better options. The moment they start blocking Ublock I will be cancelling my phone plan.
IMO reddit won but only by engaging a new audience. It removed the 1 post per subreddit on the front page without an announcement, modified the upvote algorithm to make upvote numbers seem larger than they are, and comments per upvote are lower than 10 years ago. Basically engagement is way down for people who use it like a forum aggregate. But engagement is way up by people who are migrating off of Instagram and similar platforms. I used to feel weird about being on reddit but now I have my wife’s 20 mostly female coworkers asking me about it. Reddit has a new audience it appeals to and it’s creating a weird issue because for some dumbass reason they thought the unpaid engagement generators would stick around after they fucked everything up for a few short term dollars.
I wish this were only a problem with kids. I’m a system integrator and I’m constantly asking for screenshots of HMIs for troubleshooting. It’s about 50/50 with my current client if it’s going to be a jank cell phone picture or an actual screenshot. I think it’s an uneducated portion of the population that is too dumb to give a shit. They always existed but now the barrier to posting a photo is finally low enough that they can barely step over it and us early PC users are annoyed by them.
The day old reddit I gone is the day it is officially dead. Reddit is appealing to the insta audience now and it sucks. I’ve talked to so many people who only recently discovered reddit and they have no idea that discussion used to drive the site. It’s a picture browsing site for them. The site is going down the tubes quickly so it can do an IPO I guess.
Trusted someone with my reputation once. Fucked me over. They went to jail for a bit. Got out, fucked someone else over, almost killed them while stealing all their retirement funds. Back to jail. Got out started grooming a child and having sex with them. They are back in jail currently.
This person taught me how to recognize evil people very quickly. I’m trying to avoid any identifying info because the second two times they were arrested made international news because of how fucked up it was both times.
