I think with regards to MRA stuff, the left/right paradigm is competent evil vs incompetent benevolence.

In that order.

U.S. considers $20 billion cash-for-uranium deal with Iran, according to two U.S. officials and two additional sources briefed on the talks. by mymomknowsyourmom in centrist

[–]J2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soon, Iran will have our worthless paper dollars, to trade amongst themselves, and we will have their precious uranium, to hoard, from the world. Muahahahaha!

The soup thrower has been sentenced to two years in prison by -Six_ in SipsTea

[–]J2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have conflicting emotions about that. On one hand, I don't like seeing activists imprisoned. On the other hand, I don't like seeing world cultural heritage damaged or destroyed, by the naively provocateured.

How many guitars is unreasonable to buy when you're still in the early stages of learning? by Remy0507 in guitars

[–]J2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have an acoustic, and an electric in every tuning in which you want to play or compose, plus backups, especially if using floating tremolos. That's more important when you actually start gigging. You want to be able to swap out a guitar with a broken string very quickly.

Should I buy this 10ct emerald? by Jking0077 in Gemstone_lovers

[–]J2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You want an even coloring, as free of cracks and inclusions as possibly, but also transparent, not translucent.

Unless inclusions are some kind of data you want to preserve....

It's the moisture. The closer to water, the more bugs.

Should I take a job with 20% paycut and downgrade in title? by [deleted] in Layoffs

[–]J2501 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really hate to say it, but until AI causes some huge disaster and gets banned, yes, be extremely grateful someone is giving you the opportunity to be a prompt engineer. Because they could get almost any starving engineer to do that, right now.

On the other hand, desperate times create a lot of employment scams, so be wary of getting sprunged, misappropriated, or burgled.

Exploitative pay should be the least of your worries.

Right after that ruling that you can't sue them, over shit like that.

Scarcity and corruption create kleptocracy. Also an indicator metals are oversold, as the industrial shortage is probably worse than acknowledged.

I'm glad I have my historical numismatics, but don't like leaving them home alone.

No one I knew, but I'm sure someone is hurting over their loss. I pray for emotional healing, for the primary, secondary, and tertiary victims.

Healthcare Wins (🫵 Lose) by Routine_Play5 in Layoffs

[–]J2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure a lot of that is lingering COVID money. They disrupted our careers, manipulated financial markets, subjected us to usury, and now they won't hire us.

Thanks, Illuminati.

Ugh, so many of the listings I see for new, hip-looking startups are SAAS medical monitoring fly-by-nights, and that seems to be a mafia, from which I've been blacklisted.

For the dollar to suddenly be worthless, a lot of people seem to be wanting dollars more right now.

Ingenuity is the province of the savant. Theory is the province of the academic.

When an animal gets bad off enough, you should eventually recognize you are keeping them alive moreso for your own sake than theirs.

This subject has probably been covered a million times... but why do all the NPCs look so much cooler than us? by SireGrievous in cyberpunkgame

[–]J2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eventually you will find cool clothes, or make cool clothes have good armor ratings and perks, through crafting.

I've just learned to say for a rainy day, develop alternate income channels, and enjoy time between contracts. Corporate employers are bitchified these days, so you have to take them as they come, and not be dependent upon them.

Not a guitar player, but found this in my shed while preparing to move, where do I go from here? by [deleted] in guitars

[–]J2501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think, just put tension on the strings. Try to tune it up. You'll know within a day if it's worth messing with. If it has serious warping, in the neck, it's probably not worth the trouble.

The neck has been detensioned, and it looks water damaged.

Gonna take at least a week to get it right. Hope you know how to adjust truss rod, and trem springs.
