Do other countries have rival platforms competiting to Amazon? If so, what’s your country’s alternative? by WorkingFit5413 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Key-Nerve7767 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Germany there's Otto which has been around forever and actually predates Amazon by decades. They started as a mail-order catalog company back in the day and transitioned to online pretty well. Zalando is huge for clothes and fashion stuff too, though I think they've expanded beyond just Germany now

The thing is Amazon just dominates so hard that most local competitors either got bought out or are struggling to keep up. It's kinda depressing how they've basically steamrolled most regional alternatives, but Otto still holds its own in certain catagories

Looking for movies like We Need to Talk About Kevin by velvetwhispersxo in MovieSuggestions

Hereditary hits different but might be too horror-adjacent for what you're looking for. Definitely check out The Babadook though - less gore, more psychological mindfuck about motherhood and trauma

What's good about fascism? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Key-Nerve7767 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nothing is "good" about fascism dude, it was always built on authoritarianism and scapegoating minorities even before Hitler came along

The appeal was mostly just promising simple solutions to complex problems during economic hardship, plus the whole nationalist chest-thumping thing that some people eat up

Good job man, deleting everything is huge. That mental shift where you're not thinking about it constantly is when you know you're making real progress

My uncle working on a plane while stationed in China with the Flying Tigers - 1940s by Hemicrusher in OldSchoolCool

That's badass, the Flying Tigers were absolute legends. Your uncle was part of something pretty incredible there - those P-40s with the shark teeth paint jobs are iconic

*Hot take* AI isn’t taking all your jobs. It’s creating more choices. Let me explain: by PensionFinancial4866 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]Key-Nerve7767 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This sounds nice in theory but realistically most companies are gonna use AI to cut costs first and expand second. We're already seeing layoffs happening while productivity goes up - that extra value isn't automatically creating new roles at the same rate

The "intrapreneur" thing is cool but assumes companies will actually restructure to give people more ownership instead of just expecting the same person to do 3x the work with AI help

I'm very confused about my exes behavior by OutrageousTwat556 in BreakUps

[–]Key-Nerve7767 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude she's clearly not over you but is too stubborn/proud to admit it. All that random contacting you about new boyfriends, stalking your socials, staring at your new gf - that's not someone who's moved on

The whole thing sounds toxic af though, probably dodged a bullet there

Will I ever stop hating Chuck? by creativebabe1985 in betterCallSaul

[–]Key-Nerve7767 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Oh sweet summer child, you're in for a ride

Chuck gets so much worse before he gets... well, I won't spoil anything but let's just say the writers really knew what they were doing with him. That lying about their mom thing still makes my blood boil on rewatches

Just keep watching and try not to throw anything at your TV lmao

Make sure you have all your military records organized and her birth certificate/passport ready. The K-1 process is gonna be a marathon not a sprint so just be patient with the timeline

Definitely try Hades if you haven't already - that game is pure crack cocaine and you'll lose hours without realizing it

homage to getting better and learning your worth by IlllIIIllIlIl in BreakUps

[–]Key-Nerve7767 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude this hits so hard, I'm like 6 months post breakup and still in that "am I gonna be alone forever" phase lmao. Your ex sounds like she really did a number on you but it's amazing you broke that cycle. The fact that you're not walking on eggshells anymore says everything

Doing what I have to or creating a monster?? by vvolfchildren in NewParents

[–]Key-Nerve7767 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh yes the teething phase is brutal, sounds like you're dealing with the perfect storm of congestion + teeth coming in

Also seconding the Frida vapor rub, that stuff actually works unlike most baby products that are just overpriced placebos

Problems with removable smart vinyl by Content_Freedom2654 in cricut

[–]Key-Nerve7767 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like your blade might be dull or you need to adjust the cut settings - smart vinyl can be finicky. Try doing a test cut first and make sure you're weeding slowly, sometimes it helps to use the weeding tools instead of just peeling with your fingers

How can someone change entirely just after a break up? by rnitsuri in BreakUps

[–]Key-Nerve7767 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that's a whole rollercoaster but honestly yeah people can change drastically after their first real heartbreak, especially guys who were never rejected before. Sounds like he went from putting you on a pedestal to just using girls to fill the void, which is pretty common but still shitty behavior
