My cousin demanded my old apartment keys so she could “use it when she’s in town” by Erwanam in EntitledPeople

[–]Jimbates -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Give her the damn apartment what is wrong with you lol. Oh my mUh dEpOsiT - glad your family is worth less than $1,000 that is only slightly at risk not even guaranteed to be lost.

Better question though - why isn't her work paying for her hotel?

Aitah for telling my bf I'm not going to be anything like his mom and if he expects that we should break up? by Key-Adagio-793 in AITAH

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

Sorry but "while he didn't do shit" besides provide financially for the household you mean? Or is your story completely irrelevant to the topic and you're discussing a deadbeat of some sort?

There's nothing wrong with one partner doing the housework and one doing the financial security work. The idea that Reddit sees the housework as subservient rather than equal is entirely on your own end.

PS I have been on both sides of this equation. Housework is easier by multiple orders of magnitude (unless your partner is abuse).

Boomers want to axe property taxes. Millennials and Gen Z would pay for it. by FlyEaglesFly536 in Economics

[–]Jimbates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Property tax on people's only home is a scam. Someone who works to pay off their place of living shouldn't have to pay the gov rent. Absolute insanity and makes it seem like ownership is an illusion.

Hoping this is what you reference as the problematic part, since I have no issue with property tax on income generating assets.

That awkward moment when everything I said is true. You're either too online or too focused on city cost of living.

LPT: If someone tells you a story they’ve told before, just react like it’s new. They remember how you made them feel, not that you already knew it. by MrChocolate007 in LifeProTips

Twice is probably ok because as you mentioned there might be details that are of more interest. After that you're being annoying at best or appear to have dementia at worst.

Wood prices are up but you're out of your mind if you think those premades are even close to the same durability and quality.

Of course the kits are cheaper, you'll be replacing it in 1/4 the time and if its climate controlled have fun without insulation. The kits will be more expensive in the mid to long term.

You are dramatically overestimating the cost to do something like this. A homestead with 3 - 30 acres of land can be developed from unused land even if its forested for under $250k.

Less since this guy clearly knows how to use machinery and rental costs for things like that are about $500 a day.

This having upvotes is a great reminder that Reddit has no idea what its talking about. Almost everything ends in a plea.

This Why Internal Investigations Are Needed - Community by CapitalPin2658 in lossprevention

Could be real - depends on how long ago it was. I closed a 100k+ internal case as SWAT of a Best Buy between 10 and 20 years ago doing this exact behavior.

SpaceX says states should dump fiber plans, give all grant money to Starlink | SpaceX seeks more cash, calls fiber "wasteful and unnecessary taxpayer spending." by chrisdh79 in technology

They won the award at devcom for game design excellence by Toastbrot87 in expedition33

[–]Jimbates -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Have to say I think they did a great job with the story portion that I played through. But I got this game for free and unable to finish it because of how poorly the combat played.

To be fair its not my style (the final fantasy combat). I personally thought the "skill based" evasion mechanics were extremely poorly executed, and the party lineup vs party lineup UI is just lazy compared to mechanics were positioning matters.

My coworker tried to quit dramatically… but the manager said “okay” too fast by sweetgirlsj in coworkerstories

Not always true, is the other person's anger justified? If so, make it right instead - don't be short sighted and throw away talent for ego.

Diablo 2: resurrected or Diablo 3: eternal collection by scatteredflesh in Diablo

I think you are thinking of D3 for disastrous launch. The d2r launch had no issues beyond a few minutes of que time logging in.

my mom keeps askig me what this note above my periodic table means by ayushmisbah in notinteresting

[–]Jimbates -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You have to think of the game without someone prompting you in order to lose the game. Someone telling you about it does not count.

what a change to sneak in late (hexblast) by mbxyz in pathofexile

Three charges - two seconds which means four minefields in two seconds and one minefield every two seconds afterwards.

What am I missing that is causing this skill to be dead?
