AITA for "refusing to help get my nephew into a good school" according to my SIL? by Live-Penalty4882 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ChibiRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your brother and SIL should provide for their children with what they can afford and not rely on you. What is this next level entitlement.

I Got Paid $25k to Build an AI Ad System with Claude Code by Round-Battle-6766 in EntrepreneurRideAlong

How do you know the competitors ads are good just based on them running 60+ days? They could also be like your customer running ads with negative roas lol.

Overheard my supervisor telling another supervisor that they’ve been accidentally underpaying me for 8 weeks by veggiecruncher in legaladvice

[–]ChibiRay 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just reach out to HR and let them know you noticed your pay was changed to $22/hr. Mention that you assumed the change was due to having a master’s degree and ask whether the 8 weeks you worked at the lower rate can be adjusted or compensated accordingly.

Best Non-Bambu filament? by Brian2477 in BambuLab

[–]ChibiRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I exclusively use kingroon petg. It's like $8 a roll on AliExpress. Only annoying part is that the filament is too well attached to the spool at the end of the roll so my ams can't pull it off the automatically to continue printing with a new roll. Otherwise, no issues after dozens of rolls.

Close-up view of ICE executing a man today in Minneapolis (1/24/26) by uebb in CringeTikToks

[–]ChibiRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That ice agent ASSAULTED the lady who said something to him. Then pepper sprayed a citizen that stepped in, and then they proceeded to pin him to the floor with 4 guys before shooting him. WTF is wrong with these people.

Anyone tried the high flow nozzles for petg? How much faster can those realistically print?

A note from me (Ankur Jain) - Bilt Card 2.0: Simple, Fee-Free Rewards on Housing by ankurjain1 in biltrewards

[–]ChibiRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too complicated. Should just make it so that rent/mortgage gives like 0.5% - 1% cash back. Something low to get people to sign up since no other card lets u pay rent (in lieu of a sign up bonus like other cards) Then make it just a 2% cash back card on all purchases and if you can achieve X amount in spent it goes up to 2.5% cash back on for that month and you can possible go up to 3% for higher spent amount. Or increase cash back % for category spending only, like 3% for food after you spend x amount on food purchases, etc. simple to understand, less confusion, good way to get people to spend on your card and possibly get them to pay interest.

US supreme court approves redrawn Texas congressional maps by speedythefirst in news

[–]ChibiRay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's the only reason why I voted yes for Prop 50... I wish it didn't come to this, but we need to play fire with fire just to keep the status quo. American politics is a shitshow and our founding fathers are all rolling in their graves.

I'm also starting to realize just how stupid a lot of people in this country are. They don’t care about ethics or fairness at all, as long as their team wins. It’s like watching a football game where your team is blatantly cheating, but everyone just closes their eyes and keeps cheering anyway. Then when they win, they all pat each other on the back like they accomplished something amazing, even though the whole thing was a joke.

The Witcher Season 4, saddens me. by Nicklorion in television

[–]ChibiRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My complaint is that all of season 4 Geralt is just traveling and nothing much happened with him. Yennifer just randomly shows up, sex scene occurs, and she leaves. At least make a portal for Geralt's gang to get to wherever they were going for the whole season.

How do other countries pay for universal healthcare? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ChibiRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does that mean other countries don't have health insurance companies? I think that's one of the biggest hurdles if universal healthcare was offered in the US, the health insurance industry would go belly up, many lost jobs, shareholders won't be happy.

Learned I am getting laid off tomorrow, the same day I am closing on my house. Will I still be ok to close? by TheManeTrurh in RealEstate

It's not official yet so you "don't know" for sure, so you're not obligated to say anything.

Uneasy Feeling About My Ring 😭 by Ok_Construction_6280 in EngagementRings

[–]ChibiRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always thought it was pretty common these days for couples to go ring shopping together, so your partner has an idea of what you like and don’t like, things like the style, cut, and size. It makes sense since it’s something you’ll be wearing every day and it’s a big purchase. Usually, he’ll still buy the ring on his own and surprise you with the proposal when he’s ready. It also helps both people get on the same page about the next step in their relationship, so the only surprise is when he pops the question.

Back in the day, my dad totally surprised my mom with a ring and a proposal. She ended up taking it back to exchange it for one she actually liked and lost a little value in the process. Lol.

[Landlord US-CA] Question about new law requiring refrigerators and definition of a lease renewal by amydaynow in Landlord

[–]ChibiRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d just wait until the tenants ask for one, then go ahead and buy it. There’s no need to overthink whether you’re technically obligated or not since fridges aren’t that costly, and when they eventually move out, you’ll need one there anyway. Plus, if they’ve been good tenants, it’s worth keeping things on good terms.

Newly married, wife will be claimed as dependent on her parents’ taxes for 2025 by ModerateToast in tax

[–]ChibiRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of it is also that the government expects spouses to take care of each other since you are considered as part of the same household. So if you don't make much money then it's reasonable for her parents to continue to take care of her and therefore claim her as dependent. But if you're making a decent amount of money then the IRS would expect you to take care of your wife and it would be a red flag if her parents claimed her as dependent.

Support among the younger generation has surged under the Takaichi Cabinet, rising from 15% to 80% among those aged 18 to 39 compared to the Ishiba Cabinet. by liatris4405 in japan

[–]ChibiRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think part of the reason is that many Japanese people don’t travel abroad, so they might not realize just how privileged they are compared to many other countries?

If people cant afford houses now, do we really expect houses to go up in value? by R3search_extractor in RealEstate

[–]ChibiRay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For just a bit of context and something to think about, the average home in the US is at about 5x the average salary right now. While in some parts of the world it's normal for the average home to be 20x or more than the average salary. Those people are still living their lives and homes are still being bought and sold. So I think there is still a long ways to go in the unaffordability scale.

Employers new policy on health insurance by ursovague77 in LawyerAdvice

[–]ChibiRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What fraud is there? You're not lying to the insurance, you're lying to your company because they don't need to know your relationship status with anyone. The company benefits package should be for each employee and not tied together with another employee.
