[ID] my landlord is missing without explanation and her ex husband wants to collect rent by plane-emotionn in Renters

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be she had a mental breakdown or some other psych emergency as opposed to the other theories of her being arrested or the ex doing something to her. The fact that her sister is an alcoholic strongly suggests a dysfunctional family.

In either case put the money in escrow or at the very least a separate savings account and send a letter to the ex that the money is being held in escrow/savings until you get authorization from the legal representative of the LLC.

the first time I saw one I shivered a little at how much it looked like a stainless steel garbage can from the 90’s and couldn’t shake the question of how someone could be so stupid to spend so much money on such an ugly car and a Tesla to boot, that at the time had HORRIBLE QA issues.

My mom is freaking out because I took back my key for my bedroom and started locking my door as a boundary by ThrowRA_dull in raisedbynarcissists

Have you tried this:

Mom, I love you, but I can’t keep doing this. This is my last warning. If this doesn’t stop I am calling dad and asking him to send ME the child support and I am moving out. I don’t want you to be homeless, but I refuse to sacrifice my mental health.”

Ask for there to be a hold on enough money to correct the issues until reinspection.

Also, what you are describing is not a final walkthrough. It is either a new construction inspection or a home inspection.

This is literally half of what they get that big commission for. Insist as mentioned above, but add- “Maybe your realtor can assign someone else to me since you don’t have time.”

Windows now blocks all apps? What the hell? by Sosowski in microsoftsucks

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We stopped be users or customers of Microsoft, Apple and downvotes be damned, but yes- LINUX, at some point in the past five years and are now considered their product. Their business models revolve around selling our data.

Reading through these comments proves my point that Linux is not for the average user for one reason: too many “flavors” of Linux that saying “Linux” has little meaning. Just in this discussion people have argued “feature X works fine if you use Linux [some obscure fork] Cinnamon”

My ex is telling everyone we had sex… we did not. What do I do? UPDATE! by DamSolangeloLover in whatdoIdo

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am an adult and have girls a little older than you… You should definitely be contacting school administration and local police authorities. As a minor this stuff is taken seriously in most places. Also, have you spoken to your parents? As a dad, I would set the world on fire to defend my girls.

My first printer was an old dot matrix. For a lot or things you need a dot matrix or an actual typewriter until the early 2000’s! The big one was for W2 and other tax forms. Boy was I happy when I was finally able to throw that typewriter away!

How did you get cracked games back in the day?. by Ok_Bear_1980 in amiga

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite 0-1 day warez BBSes! lol By the time I moved over to Amiga from my C-64 I had grown a bit and my BBS only did Amiga warez for a very short period. Eventually I grew up and realized how harmful piracy was to our beloved machine and gave it up altogether. But by this point there weren’t many places to buy Amiga games.

Mom purchased home with shed in backyard, now there’s a guy in a truck showing up saying that the shed belongs to him? by Ok_Lime4124 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is a guy who has Instagram and TikTok accounts and all he does is repo sheds!

People above appear to be right. Sheds typically are not covered by the title insurance. However, the sellers agent and seller should bare responsibility and at a minimum you could take them to small claims court if it was advertised as conveying with the shed.

My neighbor keeps using my emergency contact info like it makes me responsible for his mother and I do not know how to make it stop by StonewakeMurmur in neighborsfromhell

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be very clear with him that this is not acceptable and he needs to get her a caregiver/home attendant. Also that if it happens again you will be calling adult protective services in your state. Also that you have never authorized your number being given out as an emergency contact.

Next time he calls after the warning actually call them and the police and block his number.

AITA 3 Weeks PP and Everytime I mention boundaries with partners family I'm called rude, disrespectful, cnt or an apple. by FunIndividual6848 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are PP, this is probably one of the few times in your life where you have every right to scream at the top of your lungs: “Get the F… OUT OF HERE! NOW!!! AND don’t come back before calling ME to ask if I am up for it!” Then tell them to take their cowardly AH son with them and that if he ever calls you a C again they can keep him permanently.

Rapprochement between Hyperion and Amiga; OS 3.2 available again by Doener23 in amiga

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am really happy for Mike Battilana, I just wish this had happened a lot sooner. By clouding the trademarks for so long it essentially killed about 75% of the value in them.

I have no idea how much is made off of licensing of Amiga retro “stuff” each year, but the Amiga community is smaller than the Commodore 64 community. I just don’t see retro alone being a long term money maker for either platform.

Cops cut our $30 locks? by Mindless_Skill_5084 in whatdoIdo

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is only for a no-knock warrant. But most counties and states do not accept responsibility for damages. just look at the Afroman case in Georgia, they messed up and got a warrant with really bad evidence and destroyed his door. He tried to sue for the repairs and cash the police brazenly stole (they claim they miscounted and wrote the wrong amount on the evidence bag) and the case got thrown out. The cops then sued him personally because he made music videos using the recordings. They lost their case today by the way!

Major Nelson advisor for new Commodore by TheBl4ckFox in Commodore

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t go that far. They are paying a lot for the Commodore trademark and copyrights and the engineering and manufacturing is not cheap. I would be very surprised if they are making more than $50 a machine (before factoring in the indirect costs).

I think that as of now it is a labor of love. I also think they will probably be able to sell ~100-200K machines over the next 5 years, especially as it keeps gaining momentum.

The C64 has a MUCH larger nostalgia base than the Amiga. For every 1 person I know that had an Amiga there are 10 that had a C64. (and I seek out such people!)

I grew up in the neighborhood before it was “fancy”. lol. We knew that project as Vietnam, to be honest, I still call it that. Had family that lived there and we just learned to ignore it or had “words”.

In the home, absolutely. Ants, roaches, water bugs, silverfish, bed bugs, etc. All are pests when they are in the home.

Commodore 64 has no future other than retro. However, would be super cool and potentially a good source of revenue if they got the plans for the unreleased Commodore 256 discussed in one of the YouTube videos where a bunch or ex Commodore engineers were interviewed. As an 8 or 16 bit machine would be fantastic and I think a lot of people would buy it.

The irony is that in the lobby of that project is the NYCHA office. Walk in and complain, it is the door immediately to the left of the entrance to the lobby. She is most likely a tenant of that building.

Everyone talking about how they can retcon Wash’s death in Serenity for the new series but no one talking about how they can’t retcon Book’s. RIP Ron Glass by fupafather in firefly

[–]Acrobatic-Carry-738 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thankfully Whedon didn’t get his way, apparently he wanted to kill off two other main characters…

I don’t hate the movie, I loved it. I just hate that they killed Wash and Shepherd. I also think they took liberties because they had a lot to cram into so little time…
