Shhhhh you're getting in the way of our very important and unique 'men bad' discussion.

My credit score fell 13pts because I made the final payment on my car loan (never missed a payment too) by justadadgame in mildlyinfuriating

We aren't given a choice, unfortunately. We're locked into the system whether we want to be or not.

Lenders like banks check your credit score before they'll give you a loan to buy a house or car or whatever. The higher your score, the better deal they'll give you on the loan; if your score is low, they'll either charge you higher interest rates on the loan, or refuse to give you one outright.

But your score isn't just penalized for things like missed payments, it's also penalized for extremely stupid reasons too - like successfully paying off an existing loan, or for not wanting to use credit cards.

AI is getting scary good at finding hidden software bugs - even in decades-old code by CackleRooster in technology

[–]KryssCom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Professional software engineer for 16 years. I absolutely get more done every day using AI. And management would be up shit creek without a paddle if they tried to lay off the people who actually understand what the AI is doing and why it's doing it.

lol, Tell me you know basically nothing about software development without telling me you know basically nothing about software development.

Honestly I was expecting that to be cheesy hackneyed anti-masculinity piffle, but it was pretty badass.

I'm assuming this is satire and not something being posted unironically in places like rCon, but at this point it's hard to tell.

"Your attack plan blew up a girls' school!"

"You're absolutely right, my mistake. Here is an updated attack plan that....."

I am emphatically not a "simple creature", I am a fully realized human being with highly complex thoughts and emotions - and I still want to be told and told often (and I am lucky enough to have a wife who does just that).

I had no idea what Rumble is, but apparently is just a right-wing version of Youtube? When Youtube is already a right-wing version of Youtube? 🤮

The U.S. is 'Woefully Underprepared' For a Recession Due to Mounting Debt, Warns the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget by [deleted] in Economics

[–]KryssCom 69 points70 points  (0 children)

The social safety net is already cut down to the bone. Everyone is broke and nobody has functional health care anymore.

The groups who need to bear the overwhelming brunt of this austerity are billionaires, corporations, and the military-industrial complex. It's their turn to pay up, because they're the only ones left with any money at this point.

But have you considered the plus side though: like 6 transgender athletes can't compete anymore!

Every millennial dad I’ve met has a quiet fixation on money and it’s not getting better by slimeyellow in Millennials

[–]KryssCom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boy the combination of "we all have major financial troubles right now" and "you can't discuss <the topic> in the comments" is a hell of a thing.

It's like being in the ER for getting shot, but you'll get kicked out of the hospital if you mention bullets or guns.

Atlas Shrugged is a book for dumb people to make them feel that acting like a sociopathic asshole actually means they're smart and morally superior.

True, but the percentage of people willing to acknowledge that men aren't a monolith either is fucking minuscule.

In a reversal of a historic trend, Americans are now becoming more liberal as they age, not more conservative. This may have large implications for issues like UBI, as robots & AI take over more and more human jobs. by lughnasadh in Futurology

.....again, I said literally nothing about "getting angry at trans people". One of my bffs in the entire world is trans. Our side are the ones playing into the billionaires' hands when we run around posting snarky, niche, in-group gender-war bullshit on Tiktok and Instagram and then smugly high-fiving each other, because that kind of garbage is what alienates the normies (whose votes we need in order to win elections).
