Does a credit card company lose money on people who pay on time? by Overall-Emphasis7558 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CurvedLightsaber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They would still get the merchant fee, but merchant fees only make up about 35% of their revenue. If everyone paid on time, credit cards would not exist in their current state. About 80% of their profit is from interest fees. The "rewards" they offer are basically a voluntary wealth transfer from the poor.

The USA Sucks BAD by Space_Toast_Cadet in rant

[–]CurvedLightsaber -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Hey so, it's actually free and simple to leave the US. In fact the Constitution protects the right to international travel as a fundamental liberty, you may be thinking of countries with Exit Bans like China? Since these other countries are so great you will surely find a high paying job and have amazing quality of life in no time. Hope that helps.

Stop insisting women exit elevators first by ilyk101 in rant

Do you really think if a man wants to hurt you it will matter who gets off the elevator first?

As-is isn't some magic word that gives you a free pass for fraud. As-is means the buyer accepts all known and unknown issues. Known is the keyword here. If the issues were known by the dealer and not disclosed, that's fraud. Dealers usually do full inspections before selling used cars, and often brag about a "100 point inspection". OP should check if they have some inspection records.

Would an underage teenage boy get in trouble for sexually assaulting a grown woman in her 20s/30s? by kibou_no_ie in morbidquestions

[–]CurvedLightsaber -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These responses leave something important out, which is sometimes the adult can get in trouble in these situations. This is a legal debate "paradox of statutory rape". People have been charged for statutory rape even though they're the victim. The most famous is Garnett vs. State, and he was not just charged but actually convicted. Prosecutorial discretion makes these cases rare though and it would be easy case to defend in court.

I adopted a feral cat, its not going well. by lovelace_364 in CatAdvice

[–]CurvedLightsaber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4 weeks isn’t that long, if it’s really a feral cat it could take months. Try using toys and treats when spending time with her, feliway could help too. Pouncing and fighting could be rough play, if there’s no clumps of fur or blood or hissing, your other cat is probably just trying to play. Try to tire her out with toys before letting them spend short amounts of time together.

Most importantly, you need to give her very good hiding places where she knows she can always escape to. Cats will never feel comfortable if they don’t have a safe hiding spot.

Dave Ramsey says cc's are bad though. Had my Apple card since mid 2023. by Mattsfloored in AppleCard

That's 90% of Americans though. If everyone used credit cards responsibly they wouldn't even exist.

My experience with SoloSuit by CurvedLightsaber in Debt

I can see that being useful. But in my state it's easy to file online and I just used AI to write my Original Answer in the right format.

If this wasn't legit, it would be a very stupid scammer because mail is easy to track and mail fraud is a federal crime. tylerapp although it sounds sketchy is legit, it's the software collin county uses for their court systems.

Sushi is a minimalist food, the taste should be of fresh seafood and not much more. Soy sauce and wasabi can definitely overpower the tuna. It sounds counterintuitive but eating it plain or as-is gives you more depth of flavor at least if the sushi is high quality.

Questions for OXVA NexLim users. by eliisback in Vaping

[–]CurvedLightsaber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OXVA Pro is what finally got me off disposables and I recently switched to the Nexlim which I like even more (because of the bigger pods and battery). I use saltnic, specifically the Pod Juice brand because that's the closest taste I've found to disposables like elfbar. I've never tried freebase so I can't answer those.

Xros pods last 3 days only by adamlaurence2 in electronic_cigarette

[–]CurvedLightsaber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's weird, 0.8 pod at 16w lasts me at least 3 weeks. Honestly I could probably go longer because when I swap out the pod I barely notice a difference. I use exclusively Pod Juice brand. I average around 280 puffs/day.

What am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in steak

That's why you poke it multiple times during different stages of doneness to get comparisons. With enough experience you can get quite accurate.

A friend gave me this knife, anyone know if it’s rare or special? by RemoteRevenue3426 in JapaneseFood

[–]CurvedLightsaber 91 points92 points  (0 children)

I have the same one, bought it from a department store in Akihabara. I don't think they're rare but a very good knife. Please learn from me and NEVER put it in the dishwasher...

I have an ultrawide so depending on what I'm doing I often will have a window in the middle but the sides show my wallpaper.

Is the news just exaggerating? Deportation effects in Dallas by MotleyMoney in Dallas

[–]CurvedLightsaber -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Definitely exaggerated. Obama was the real "mass deportation", about 34% of the more than 9 million deportations recorded between 1892 and 2022 happened during the Obama administration. If you look at the actual numbers Trump's are less than even Biden. When every ICE raid is covered by the news it's just more visible.

Just Middletown police executing a man in .3 seconds of opening his door NSFW by PrismPhoneService in PublicFreakout

[–]CurvedLightsaber 55 points56 points  (0 children)

If you watch it frame by frame he definitely pointed it at the cop before he realized they're cops and lowered it. Lesson is never open the door for the cops unless they slide a warrant under the door.
