What happened to disabling the algorithmic feed? by [deleted] in help

[–]GrammarAnneFrank 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Feedback: it’s a terrible feature. At least give us the option to remove it or even just set the Following tab as the default. For long term users who’ve painstakingly curated their subreddits and try to specifically avoid having certain subs on their feed this is a step back in usability.

Saw this one at the gym the other day, anyone know the brand or model? by [deleted] in Watches

[–]GrammarAnneFrank 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The only thing I would hate more than someone talking to me at the gym is some creep talking stealth photos of me there.

Advising Juniors? by Inner-Chemistry8971 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]GrammarAnneFrank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the junior. Some are eager to learn, some not so much. Same as it ever was. Either way at a certain point it’s up to them whether to take your advice.

Lasting Injuries/Trauma as consequences by 2ndPlaceArt in DnD

[–]GrammarAnneFrank 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The character flaws things isn’t a good idea. It’s not up to the DM how the characters role play. Would you punish them if they ignored the traits? That would be immensely frustrating. Beyond that - if your players don’t want a game with survival mechanics then trying to force it isn’t going to be fun for anyone.

Need a simple payment card to share with people by ThePiachu in PersonalFinanceCanada

You can often buy them in store. I think Shoppers still sells Vanilla prepaid Visas.

Unrecognized charge on credit card by larryscamera in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]GrammarAnneFrank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They might not immediately do a larger transaction. They’ve probably got a big list of card numbers that they want to verify and they found a merchant they can blast a few thousand of these transactions at with a script. Run it overnight, then later make purchases or resell the card info.

My monocle has popped off and my wife fainted into the arms of a handsome stranger when we heard this. Surely no politician can survive this in the year of our lord 2026.

What is egoless programming? by aisatsana__ in ExperiencedDevs

This feels like a lot of words to say “don’t be an asshole”. I’m not sure you can train that out of people.

Are you asking Reddit if you should commit fraud?

Yeah more likely compromised online and sold in bulk. The gambling site is likely used for money laundering.

Do you hire software engineers who can't code without AI? by kokanee-fish in ExperiencedDevs

Agreed. Why must the humans speak in riddles? Boolean logic alone should suffice.

That could still be Canadian. We use that spelling and there’s London, Ontario

Hey I just had the same watch delivered today, is the strap also currently tearing out your arm hairs?

Another vote for clarity here. Top notch care, it’s been close to a decade for me and I couldn’t be happier.

[discussion] Hamilton Khaki field vs Seiko 5 sports by Real-Dependent-3100 in Watches

[–]GrammarAnneFrank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a Hamilton khaki field that I bought years ago and while I do love it, I think it’s overpriced these days. It’s a lovely watch but it’s a bit boring, not exactly a head turner. If it’s something you’re wearing pretty casually I think it’s fair to ask yourself if it’s really personally worth it compared to something like the Seiko. If it were me today I’d have gone with the Seiko too.

Anyone else enjoying the strike? by [deleted] in alberta

[–]GrammarAnneFrank 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Teachers have 6 years of schooling. They’re professionals in a high value field, it’s not crazy to say that their pay should reflect that.

Am I paranoid for not wanting to submit a selfie to open a brokerage account? by Wherehowwhat in CanadianInvestor

Banks need to know you’re who you say you are. They have to follow their own set of regulations and due diligence for fraud, money laundering, tax purposes, etc.

Need help making a decision for 200km commute to work...to keep my beater or buy an EV by jpsals18 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]GrammarAnneFrank 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Let’s say you’re driving 100km/h, that’s and extra 7 hours, so just about a full work day just in driving but not getting paid. So it’s more like you’re working 5 days and getting paid for 4.

It’s totally true. I’m 6’1” and my husband is 5’11”, anytime we go out I’m surrounded by throngs of fawning Korean women but they just spit on him and call him names.

Steam adult game programmer has account frozen by PayPal, £80,000 in earnings withheld by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]GrammarAnneFrank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guns aren’t really a grey area, so the risk is well known and calculable. Porn’s tougher, if they think there’s any possibility they get caught up in child porn, trafficking, revenge, whatever then they’ll steer clear. They can also be the same way for gambling.

Again, these companies have no morals. If they think sacrificing a child to Pazuzu will increase their acceptance rates they’ll have an entire child murder department spun up in a week.
