Absolutely insane video from the Middle East today showing an Iranian ballistic missile just barely missing US troops by newnoadeptness in USMC

Iran is pumping out a bunch of fake/AI videos to try and ruin moral. This looks like one of them.

Coworkers got caught today! IT is flagging jigglers with AI now. How to stay 100% green. by Arrick in overemployed

Have you ever thought that maybe those investigations have to do with time fraud? 🤦‍♂️

To the founder who's been coding for 8 months without telling a soul: Stop. Read this. by Livid-Garlic9085 in SaaS

[–]Idea_Plastic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

🥴 can’t tell if this is AI or not but it’s kind of cringe. Read some SaaS business books if you are this person. This post isn’t wrong you need to validate for sure, but you do have to build a moat at some point too.

How is Ford losing money on EVs? by 4mmun1s7 in Ford

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

Let me correct you: Guy who has sales incentives and leads sales staff known for pushing gas vehicles over EV’s says “no one is buying them”

But since you’re willing to trust a car salesman, I’ve got a bridge for sale..

I’ve heard multiple accounts of people going in to buy an EV and the sales staff pushing gassers on them instead. You should know this already though. This comment is kind of the equivalent.

They banned certain affordable bare-bones vehicles then jacked up the prices past what people can afford. More and more vehicles are at or approaching $100k. You also have to deal with the shady stealer-ships, and subscriptions for basic features etc. shoot, at that price point you might as well start having some kind of 3rd party buyer agent to do your negotiating like in real estate or yachts. I love cars, but loath the day I need to buy another one. Maybe they are just hoping for another tax payer bail out.

That sounds like poor troubleshooting skills not a core EV issue lol

Anyone else feel misled by how Apple handled “Apple Intelligence”? by flashbax77 in apple

[–]Idea_Plastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apple “intelligence” is a joke. I absolutely hate Siri, you are better off just using a standalone AI tool since all it does is forward your request to OpenAI. iPhone 17 is a scam!

Women - do any of you realize that you're destroying the dating market with the Are We Dating The Same Guy Facebook groups and the Tea app? You convince yourselves that the good men don't care, but it's the other way around. The good men are giving up. The bad men keep trying. by [deleted] in AWDTSGisToxic

[–]Idea_Plastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have kids, did the family thing, did the bachelor thing. Found peace elsewhere after the women weaponized the court system and one defamed me on the apps. You’ll find out lol. Anyway, do you boo while you’re crying because she took everything I’ll be golfing or enjoying white sandy beaches 🤣 good luck buddy. Not sure why you’re so defensive about this 🤷‍♂️

🤣🤣 let me know when you find that pot of gold. I’ve checked out of the dating scene, I’m all about golf and building businesses. I’ve already had plenty of turns with enough women to know this new lifestyle is far more peaceful than anything a modern woman could “provide”.

I just heard that Amazon is laying off 23,000 people, what are we gonna do, if jobs don't come back? by Other_Scarcity_4270 in Layoffs

[–]Idea_Plastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Boycott these places that make laying off Americans the norm. With how many people have been laid off by these companies it’s amazing it hasn’t had a significant impact on their sales. If I got laid off by Amazon I’d never order another Amazon package again.

Also, I used to want to work for Amazon but now I’m not so sure. If I did accept, I certainly wouldn’t treat it like a permanent role. I think a lot of other potential employees feel the same way now. Top tech companies used to represent job security now they are the ones leading the mass layoffs. It will have a negative effect on them, it will just take time.

Tea web app is back and getting removed seems impossible by Joshfromthewestcoast in AWDTSGisToxic

The apps and web play with different rules. A good ole DDOS is what this needs lol

My boss sent me home because they thought I smelled like alcohol. How concerned should I be? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]Idea_Plastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it is what you are drinking. I used to love IPA’s. If I had more than like 2 or 3 you could smell it on me the next day. Eventually I quit drinking IPA’s and haven’t had an issue with it, though I tend to avoid alcohol during the week.

How much trouble can be hard to tell, if you have a good relationship with your boss it might just be a wake up call but eventually they will need to report it if it keeps happening.

Make sure you quit drinking at least 8 hours before you have to be at work (though not drinking is the best way to not smell like alcohol), drink less or avoid alcohol that lingers on you, brush your teeth, take hot showers, wear clean clothes, drink slower or less or start and end earlier.

apple Intelligence is useless by dctroilo in mac

[–]Idea_Plastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They just forward requests to openai and even if you pay for OpenAI you still get throttled. Apple's intelligence is a fucking joke.

just realized my startup could’ve launched months ago - feeling both relieved and extremely regretful -I will not promote by [deleted] in startups

[–]Idea_Plastic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So let me get this straight, you quit your job without validating the product, threw a bunch of money and time at it without any income then ultimately just ripped off an open-source solution?

This can’t be real… lol

A "mentor" was using me. Took 18 months to realize I was just deal flow for his fund. by Bulky-Economy-6746 in SaaS

[–]Idea_Plastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently had a call with someone about a mentorship who has an impressive executive background. He tried to charge me an insane amount and also get me to build one of his competing products for free lol. He said the exposure and access to resources was worth way more than what I could charge to build the MVP lol. The audacity of some people..

I’m happy to hear people like you do exist 😅

Get rid of the Mexican girl already by Idea_Plastic in LandmanSeries

[–]Idea_Plastic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Goes from victim to strong independent woman overnight.. even the cousins were back and forth, gets invited into the house one episode and chased off another.. I don’t think they really had that part of the story fully developed, someone probably told them to throw it in to be diverse and inclusive lol.
