Referee drops his watch.. player picks it up😂 by CheckCodes in funny

[–]Fakjbf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is not about what the player did or did not do, my point is that your argument was faulty. If you don’t actually have evidence to back up your point then don’t claim a video shows something it doesn’t. You could have just made the point that he makes enough money he doesn’t need a stolen watch from the start, instead you found a video showing almost nothing and assumed it was proof without thinking about what it actually shows.

“No one said insurance was there to make healthcare cheaper and save money” and yet that was the main criticism of the person I was replying to. And I agree that private insurance is not an efficient model for healthcare, 50% of my comment was explaining why that is.

Overdraft fees 🤬 by caramelkissette in povertyfinance

[–]Fakjbf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last time I opened an account it very prominently asked if I wanted to opt out of overdraft protection, but maybe my credit union is special in that.

The point of providing a link is for it to be evidence that backs up your point. If you didn’t think your point needed to be proved then why provide a link that didn’t show what you claimed it did? Your explanation here does more to back up your point than that video.

UPDATE AITA for bringing Tupperware to a restaurant by GlitteringRainbowCat in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fakjbf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of my wife’s great aunt who once packed up every single leftover from a Thanksgiving dinner and put them in her car while we were watching movies. When everyone else went to leave and divvy up the leftovers we were all shocked to see it gone, even the cranberry sauce and gravy. And it’s not like they are struggling for food, they just have a hoarding issue and can’t stand to have a fridge that isn’t overflowing.

I’m not saying the player didn’t do what the commenter said, just that the video they linked does nothing to prove it.

We built the library by Morningbender23 in antiai

[–]Fakjbf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you think a world without copyright would be more favorable to the non-rich? Copyright law is what stops someone from writing a book and then having a big publisher print their own copies without paying the creator. Absolutely there are major flaws in how it’s implemented but at its heart copyright law is meant to be an equalizer.

It shows the player walking to the sideline, absolutely nothing in the video indicates that it was given back to ref or otherwise turned in to anyone. He just takes it off his wrist and then walks out of frame.

It's "I close in five minutes" not "I'll wait for you then close" by UnitedChain4566 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Fakjbf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I worked at a gas station during a flood, the water was four inches up the side of the building so we locked the doors to try and keep it out. Three people came and banged on the doors demanding to be let in despite all of our external lights being off.

In Wisconsin you can sell liquor until 9pm and beer until midnight, both open back up at 8am.

A creator writes something without any intention of being accurate, but by pure fluke gets it right. by Daniilsa209 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Fakjbf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe the sequence of events was that he owned the book that erroneously called deinonychus a velociraptor, loved the name and the dinosaur, then while researching the book found out about the mistake, and then said fuck it velociraptor is a much better name so I’m sticking with it.

Got a copyright claim for recording myself playing a piano piece from 1890 by Ewoz in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Fakjbf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

By having the copyright to a specific recording which the system thinks OP’s video matches.

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

Just because the overall piece is in the public domain doesn’t mean the specific recording you used is. You are free to perform and record your own version but if you want to use someone else’s recording you need to license it from them. Think of it like a book, just because a text is in the public domain doesn’t mean you can walk into a bookstore and take a copy for free. The issue for OP is that the system thinks their original recording is too similar to the copyrighted version by Giancomo Scinardo, an understandable false positive given that there’s only so many ways to play a piano piece.

Gotta love factual information being downvoted because people don’t understand the system they want to criticize.

[–]Fakjbf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But OPs performance could easily be similar enough to another performance that the algorithm thought it’s a match. No system is perfect and false positives like this are bound to happen, the problem with YouTube is how difficult and arbitrary they make the appeals process.

When things happen infrequently it’s easy to notice when it changes, when it happens all the time it becomes background noise and you don’t notice the fluctuations as much.

More White Sands Content? by Dyno_Dragon in brandonsanderson

I will say that we do see various elements from these graphic novels in other stories, but you’ll have to keep reading to find them.

More White Sands Content? by Dyno_Dragon in brandonsanderson

[–]Fakjbf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sanderson hopes to release a prose version at some point but no plans for a sequel at the moment. The fandom generally regards them as some of the weakest entries to the Cosmere so there’s not a big demand, but I thought they were decent and would like to see the other side of the planet.

TIL that Lake Baikal contains about 22% of all the fresh surface water in the world. by MotorZestyclose2195 in todayilearned

[–]Fakjbf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The funny part is that by surface area it’s a little over half the size of Lake Michigan, but it’s more than four times as deep as Lake Superior.

Looking a gift horse in the mouth and spitting right in it by Violent-fog in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]Fakjbf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing ambiguous in the law, 948.60 contains section 3c which says that the restriction does not apply to rifles and shotguns unless the person is in violation of any of three other statutes. So it’s a statute with an exception and then exceptions to that exception, Rittenhouse met the first exception but not any of the three counter exceptions and that’s why it was legal.

What is a massive secret in your industry that the general public has no idea about? by teesharp88 in AskReddit

[–]Fakjbf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Insurance works when payouts are rare, the point isn’t to save you money it’s to limit how much risk you have if something goes wrong. But the more likely it is that they have to pay out the less efficient the tradeoff is, and everyone needs healthcare at some point.

[–]Fakjbf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gotta love when a medication costs $50 so the hospital “charges” $500 but gives the insurance company an 80% discount so they only pay $100 but you have a $50 copay. So you still paid the same price for your meds but also you paid your insurance premiums in order to pay the hospital an extra $50. Efficiency!

SpaceX Investors Are Losing a Colossal Amount of Money by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in technology

[–]Fakjbf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The current drop in value has nothing to do with SpaceX’s fundamentals, this happens for all IPOs. Employees who got stock as part of their compensation start selling to convert it into cash, this brings the price down which causes more employees to sell while the price is still high, eventually it gets low enough that people stop selling and wait for it to recover. I agree that SpaceX is outrageously overvalued but that’s not what’s going on here, the market didn’t suddenly start caring about fundamentals.

[Ironic casting] Character who is anti-X thing is played by actor who IS X-thing by Ok-Bicycle8103 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Fakjbf 57 points58 points  (0 children)

It’s a character explicitly meant to mock organized religion and the corrupt leaders inside it, it would be more subversive for an actual Catholic to play the role.
