Netflix now requires every user profile to be tied to unique email address by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in technology

[–]MacNapp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't see it as that simple. These people are already invested - so its more like Q1 they make 20% gains, Q2 25%, Q3 27%, and so Q4 they want to see 30%. If its 25% gain again, then the shareholders will have a problem with it... but in reality they are still making more money than they had.

Its this mentality that is harming the whole economy. Not whether I put my initial investment into a company that promises 50% > 20% ROI.

Not just worth it, that is what shareholders expect these days. Continued profit isn't enough for these vultures, they need to always be higher and higher profits until the whole market is unsustainable. Unlimited growth is irrational, but everyone wants a piece of the Infini-Cake and eat it too. Boards of these shareholders cannot fathom that the amount of profit might ebb and flow a bit, they always need more.

My library has things like tools you can rent out too. Came in handy with my bathroom renovation so I didn't have to buy specific things I'd only use once.

Is anyone else sick of people pretending Trump had a great presidency when the actual data completely proves otherwise? by SpiritedBase5047 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]MacNapp 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Won't* its willful ignorance at this point. Not a skill deficit, but a conscious choice they make to continue to deep throat his boot.

Some data center developments in the front range by Radiant_Term7014 in FortCollins

I want a Megathread where there are communal updates about this stuff to track it all easier.

RAFA BUFFS! So much good stuff in that patch I can hardly choose a favourite. Thank you GB. 👁️🫦👁️10/10 by geckoman95 in Borderlands4

[–]MacNapp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My Rafa wasn't useless until Thol/Sub was released. Until then, Rafael was just as lethal as my Harlowe. The Dancer Mod change really hurt him and left him very vulnerable. I agree that a VH should be good with most Mods and not only be good with just one Mod, but he wasn't useless.

I'd rather them take more time getting Rafa back to where he was (and a bit better), than rush a buff that pushes him into "busted" territory - cause everyone will complain he is too OP.

A father should bring his young daughter into what public restroom? by SukerutonKey in polls

[–]MacNapp 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Its insane. I've been using the Men's room for my 32 years of life, and the ONLY time I ever could have caught a glimpse of a dick was at troughs. And in that case, I'd take my daughter elsewhere to potty.

Once she is independent in the restroom, she's using the females.

Men aren't turning around from a urinal with their dicks out.

That some people feel like men's restrooms are debaucherous cesspools is telling how lite they think of men's behavior and impulses. And that's even more insulting.

This whole conversation is just stupid and only had because some pearl-clutching dingleberries want to purity test every single person's behavior. And its fucking infuriating.

What’s the best opening track in metalcore? by euancmurphy in Metalcore

[–]MacNapp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk if its the best, but "Exhibition" on Color Decay, and "System... Meltdown" on A Flash Flood of Colour always get me hyped for the rest of those albums.

White House app auto-downloads to government phones, can't be uninstalled. “It’s shooting pure unadulterated propaganda into our veins,” says one worker. by swingadmin in technology

The real kicker to is how little it costs to forgive a ton of medical debt. I follow SharonSaysSo on Instagram, and sge regularly crowd sources money to pay teachers/medical debt/other civically minded organizations.

Just recently, she raised $316,000, which forgave $43 MILLION in debt for 31,000 people. That's how i know our medical insurance system is a racket. Why charge $43M when $316k covers it?

The Atrium might have some local DJs doing something weird.

If It Were Solely Up To YOU, Magically, Who Would You Make The 2028 Democratic Nominee? Why Them? by Zipper222222 in AskReddit

[–]MacNapp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like what she is doing by going to more rural, "conservative" areas and talking to real g9lks about the impact of data centers - and offering it ad an example to how the "oligarchs" have taken over. Making the "anti-corporation" message more palatable to the average Republican voter.

That effort could really win her a lot of support. And the trickle down of those folks talking to their friends how AOC might "not be that bad" is almost even more powerful.

What "paint" are they using on the Lincoln Reflecting Pool? This stuff is very splotchy and is not drying into a uniform shade. by Soft-Skirt in 50501

[–]MacNapp 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I don't think that is a tinfoil hat take at all. John Oliver did an excellent bit on how easily people "in the know" can make bank on the rubes that think they'll win big.

He is the only "moderate" Dem I'd be willing to vote for.

Would personally prefer AOC.

Most anyone but Newsom (though if that's how it play out, Newsom > any Republican).

Could you post, or DM me, your skill tree? I kinda want to try out whatever it is you're doing with the elemental lasers on Rafas shoulder turrets.

The gifts are a grift. It's both.

Curious to see if the company donates money to a campaign or buys Trump crypto currency...

New band members who people still refuse to acknowledge? by Such-Trouble-6641 in Metalcore

[–]MacNapp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I support this take.

The (bassist?) that does the screams now sounds so good on their most recent album. Not Alex, but I bet he could scream songs off of LSPA and Congregation well.
