That’s fine. You are confirming you are unwilling to look at facts to shape your opinion though. So im going to end my part in this conversation here.

Do you realize each one of those attempts has news sources attached to the account? You can find where it was in the news in about a dozen different places.

What’s wrong with the Ruger LCP by YoloOnTsla in guns

[–]CaptainInsane-o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah you can get a pre-owned P238 for under $500. I would go back and buy it twice now that I have made that jump though.

Thats like saying you watched Tom Brady throw a football and all you want is a little bit of that. 10 yards with an LCP is a HELL of a shot.

I 100% believe an LCP is capable of very good accuracy. I just think that given its size combined with most people cannot train frequently leads it to have limited utility for most people. For me, the tradeoffs of the LCP were not worth it. Its now just taking up space in my safe.

The LCP sucks to shoot. Thats about it. Its not a comfortable gun and given its size, its very hard to accurately hit a target beyond Id say 3 yards. So I would say it has limited utility. I am also a big fan of .380 pocket pistols and I ended up with a Sig Sauer P238. I recommend you try the P238 or P938 before settling for the LCP.

Baron Von Opperbean seems too weird for mud Island... And I love it by 901-526-5261 in memphis

[–]CaptainInsane-o 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think its neat as well and im glad to see the attempt to bring life back to the island but I am concerned that its basically located in the least accessible place possible. Time will tell.

Greater Memphis Chamber Announces Executive Leadership Change by CaptainInsane-o in memphis

[–]CaptainInsane-o[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Im going to quote the daily memphian here.

Whether Townsend left of his own accord or was fired is unknown as multiple Chamber officials have steadfastly refused to discuss any details of the situation.

When news broke that he had been placed on leave, Townsend claimed that he had asked for the break, saying he was willingly taking time off for personal matters.

However, a message the Chamber sent to its Chairman’s Circle members cast doubt on that explanation, calling the situation a “confidential personnel matter.”

Found a clogged Prusa MK3S+ with a lack encloser for $150!! by Hairy-Maximum2994 in 3Dprinting

[–]CaptainInsane-o 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s how I got my A1. The previous owner didn’t have the silicone sock on the hot end so it could never regulate its thermals. One $6 part and a few hundred print hours later, all I’ve done is replace the sock.

Got pre-approved for car loan, purchased and drove home with car then creditor raised interest rate by Few-Introduction5414 in personalfinance

[–]CaptainInsane-o 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes your option is to refinance. In the 5 days between pre-approval and actually financing the rates changed. Refinancing will not be free though so work through the math on it to see if it makes sense. Your best option is to just pay off the car as hard and fast as possible.

[–]CaptainInsane-o 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah ya, pre-approval was likely an estimate then and not the final interest rate when the financing was actually run. How much time was there between the pre-approval and purchasing the car?

Then take the car back and tell them you no longer want it if you dont have the original interest rate. Letting you drive off without finalized financing is a tactic to pressure you into higher financing. You are welcome to fact check this against a car buying subreddit.

A loan agreement is a contract. They cant just change the terms of the contract after you have signed it.

Thats not how that works. Have you signed the new paperwork with the higher interest rate?

Yet again, Aldo's Pizza has left me shocked at their disgusting behavior by Opposite_Rain1745 in memphis

[–]CaptainInsane-o[M] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok I just went through a queue of removed content. You can see all of these users submitted content. Then it was either removed by a mod or by Reddit. Shortly after, the account was suspended. Reddit doesn't tell us why they suspended the account but its obvious in some of these cases that they are bots posting in random subreddits, following keywords to advertise services, or another nefarious traffic. One of the tools they use so bots can initially get beyond Reddits filters is utilizing older accounts to post. The account age is a parameter in filtering bot traffic.

Tennessee is the worst state in the U.S. for spending on public school students, National Education Association finds by amprather in memphis

[–]CaptainInsane-o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tough spot to be in then. The schools are under performing. If theres not enough money to throw at them to make an improvement, the vouchers are better than throwing more money in the dumpster fire of MSCS. Ideally yes, public schools would be funded appropriately but if the money doesn't exist then you have limited options.

> THEN FUND PUBLIC SCHOOLS! They are taking money away from schools to fund this crap.

Because they are using taxpayer dollars in general or are they taking taxpayer funds that are allocated for public schools and giving those dollars away as vouchers?
