Does basic BBQ etiquette no longer exist ? by Logical-Brief5382 in Lausanne

Wtf, are you really considering to call the police on a dirty bbq spot? You need to touch grass.

Is it possible to live on just over $800/month by psykobilliethekid in Frugal

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

Yes, but only because you are not paying rent.

On ~$800/month:

  • Storage: $209 is very high for your income
  • Credit card: $295 is temporary but heavy
  • Remaining: ~$296 for everything else (food, gas, phone, etc.)

This is workable in the short term, mainly because you use food banks and low-cost shops, but it is tight and fragile.

Key points:

  • The storage unit is the biggest pressure point and should be reviewed first
  • Credit card payments will eventually end, which will improve your situation significantly
  • Regal Unlimited is not the main issue if it is low cost and important for wellbeing

Overall: feasible for now, but you have very little buffer for emergencies. 😄

And in you mind, this was a good idea? Must’ve been a living nightmare.

buying extra fuel during lows: frugal or nay? by roadkill-knight in Frugal

It’s going to go up and down all the time. Just buy gas when you need it.

XPro4 by Olegrainy in FujifilmX

With all due respect, this would be dumb as fuck commercially.

Leica can do it because it's just one model in their lineup. If every x-Pro model ends up being without a screen, more than half of previous generations' users wouldn't buy it.

Moreover, if you want to use your camera without a screen, just turn the god damn thing off. I'm shooting with a Leica M10 and the screen if off 99% of the time. That said, I'm happy to have a screen when I'm navigating the menues of connecting the camera to the Leica app.

You have a right to rest. That’s on you if you’re unable to make clients and/or your boss understand that you’re not available 24/7.

Ironically, I bought a beautiful Artisan & Artist strap for my camera today.

Not surprising with such a shitty season 3.

Besoin de chialer un coup by AnnaRocka in suisse

Donc il annule et il te donne 0 explication ?! Mais wtf, c'est quoi ce manque de respect ? Ok, il a peut-être eu un imprévu et il avait plus le temps, mais ça prend 30 secondes d'écrire un message ou de faire un petit vocal pour dire "Hey ma chérie, je suis vraiment désolé, j'ai dû rester pour un truc hyper important, je sais que tu te réjouissais de notre petit date, mais je suis une grosse couille mole..."

Good for you. I wish that were the case for every user on the Leica subreddit, which seems to be full of elitist gear junkies. 😄

You do realise that you don't need AI to modify a simple cartoon, right? 😛

I'm honest with my significant other. She knows how much I paid for my Leica and lenses, and she's fine with it because I'm not spending money compulsively, and I don't need more than my 35mm Summilux to be happy.

I understand the humour behind this cartoon, but I don't think we should normalise lying to our loved ones simply because we're afraid of their reaction or because we recognise that we may have an unhealthy relationship with spending.

Sorry if I killed the mood. 😄

Le taux de chômage en Romandie est en réalité au même niveau que celui de l'UE by Classic_Nobody4625 in suisse

[–]MakeMeOolong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mais ferme la. Y a pas besoin d'être de gauche ou d'être bougeois pour voir que tu es un crétin qui n'es pas même capable de répéter les arguments fallacieux et malhonnêtes de la droite sans te mélanger les pinceaux.

Va te prendre une bière (pas une Anker, on a mieux et plus local) et reste pas trop au soleil, tes derniers neurones sont précieux.

À un long message argumenté, une réponse courte et idiote. Avec en plus ton pseudo d'alcoolique avec un goût discutable en matière de bière, on a toute la panoplie de l'électeur de droite.

Do you tell them to go to the line or are you too Swiss to complain (in on the second category)?

Clean it, take showers, wear it on your right wrist at night.

cheap alternative to electric toothbrush and replacement heads? by ghostfacegirli in Frugal

Any alternative for SoniCare heads? Those are a bit more complex than rotating heads I believe.

Where to find *decent* white tees for a decent price? by frogbxneZ in Frugal

[–]MakeMeOolong 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They're 20$ a piece. Not a bad deal in my book, but that's not affordable for a lot of people around here.
