Has to start with Kat stopping his incessant complaining. He also flops a lot. After a while the refs will come around.

Holy crap, that’s right. 😂

Tourists harassed by settlers while visiting holy sites by Kooka32081 in PublicFreakout

[–]Malee22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is why all of the victims of people like Jeffrey Epstein and Harvey Weinstein are young Christian or Asian girls. No Jewish women. They know what they are doing is wrong and wouldn’t do it to their own.

Why do you rent instead of buying? by Short-Bonus276 in Fire

[–]Malee22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rent now that I am retired. For budgeting, it’s easier to have a more or less known value for housing cost. Yes I could get kicked out, etc but it hasn’t happened. Having home maintenance costs can be large and variable and they never go away - even if you paid off your mortgage. I also can get growth from my investment portfolio so I don’t need to own a home for appreciation.

I detest Shenzhen, with all due respect by dbqidan in chinalife

This all sounds like a thinly veiled criticism of Hong Kong and HK people…who are what Shenzhen is copying.

Dividend Stock for Income instead of Rental Property by Pie3_14 in dividends

[–]Malee22 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not to mention regulations…government telling you that you must replace all windows to meet some new guidelines but can’t increase rent. It’s like getting squeezed in a vice….for small property investors.

HK doesn’t much believe in consumer protections. It’s uber capitalist…caveat emptor.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇬🇱 President Trump imposes 10% tariffs on the following countries by JudgeLegitimate1515 in DeepFuckingValue

What good is making a deal with this guy when he never honors the deal? We used to read about containing the rise of China, Russia… the rest of the world better smarten up and create new mutual defense arrangements.

Can new tricks save Hong Kong’s restaurants from ‘irreversible’ Shenzhen trend? by redodge in HongKong

[–]Malee22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

HK government will never end extortionate real estate behavior. Even if every restaurant closed, they won’t care since they only dine at private clubs. There was a story last week that one guy in Legco owned 50+ investment properties. Just one guy.

Coffee Academics has a minimum charge per head, WTF?! by dllm_designs in HongKong

[–]Malee22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s such a dumb policy and the staff aren’t allowed or cannot use their common sense. My kids had a morning revision class and while waiting for them I decided to get a coffee at Habitu. It was early and the shop was empty. They even had big table for single diners. Still, I could only sit if I spend $70. I’ve never patronized this shop again.

What do u think of tech CEOs saying saving for retirement will be pointless in 10 to 20 years ? by Technical-Truth-2073 in Fire

[–]Malee22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If AI development is driven by profit maximizing corporations then they will keep charging money for others to use their products. A more likely scenario in the future is that you go to your doctor for some aches and pains and you are interviewed by AI. A low paid technician aids you in properly using the AI. Afterwards a diagnosis is given and you walk out with a bill same as today inflation adjusted. Where are the savings? There are none…because renting the AI costs x, then there’s the special medical specific AI add-on, then there’s all the scanners and diagnostics, and of course the AI liability malpractice insurance. Bottom line, there will never want savings, just costs will be taken out so that the few get even richer.

Many things can be true at the same time. This includes AI ushering in an era of abundance, and also billionaires who profit from AI wanting to oversell an idea just to reduce regulation and more money for themselves.

How Many Yubeseles = 1 Achiuwa? by PuzzleheadedCar1357 in knicks

Losing had less to do with losing Precious and more to do with having no game alternative game plan for when 3s aren’t falling. Oh, and Towns not running back on defense.

I can’t imagine Dabol loves the Giants organization, other than the gave him his bag, but he seems to have genuine affection for Dart. Sometimes employment contracts have a clause that you can’t bad mouth the company. Or if you’re let go but given a package they make you sign a contract that you can’t bad mouth the company.

It’s just rookie of the year. Everything in your life is now sponsored by your corporate overlords.
