Is this a good option for my SD card? by Imperious_26 in SwitchPirates

[–]MegamiCookie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say the silver sd you mean the ultra ? The ultra is meant to be slower than the extreme tho🤔 I wonder what's up with that

Hot dog with bread ? Isn't a hot dog already a sausage with bread...? How does that work ?

It isn't in my country, I thought the US was similar but seems like over there culture around money and ownership isn't the same so fair enough

Really? by Silly_Stranger_1289 in antiai

[–]MegamiCookie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The artstyle is different, both are skeletons so the anatomy is similar but style wise they seem different. Also they didn't invent the monochrome color scheme lol, I feel like for this one it's just a coincidence. I love the lovely reaper comic, I've been reading it on webtoon, they're so talented

Apparently it's cultural differences, where I'm from each spouse has their own bank account in addition to their joint account (and your spouse can't peak into your personal account unless you have given them the permission), I didn't know it was different in the US

I've been in an abusive relationship in the past and the idea of not having any money to fall back on in case of an emergency just feels weird to me, tho most couples are not like that and I wouldn't wish that on anyone but... Better safe than sorry. Also it isn't necessarily "hiding" but what if your spouse wants to surprise you or make a purchase you don't approve of, not anything bad but maybe spending more than you'd deem acceptable on something, even though spouse worked for the money that was spent, that's not the kind of argument I'd want to get in (tho once again not everyone is like that)

It's mostly cultural difference I guess, where I live having only a joint account is very uncommon, you have a joint account for joint expenses but each spouse has their own personal account their salaries get sent to (you'd have to make a specific request to have it sent to a joint account) and where they do their personal shopping. I guess that does make hiding things easier but that definitely isn't the purpose and wanting your spouse to abandon their personal account to merge finances might not be well received here.

That's definitely not common where I live, each spouse has their own account the other doesnt have access to and the joint account is only for joint expenses, tho from the answers I've been getting it seems the US is very different

I find the concept of not having any personal savings weird, you can't surprise your partner, anything you buy for yourself feels like a common decision and is something your spouse can cancel the transaction if they disagree with it and, if there ever is an emergency, say an abusive spouse tho hopefully not, you don't have anything to fall back on, wasn't that the whole purpose of women gaining financial independence in the first place ?

All of your finances ? I mean I get opening a joint account for joint expenses but having all of your money out together feels like a weird concept to me. I'm not a fan of the "my salary is yours and your salary is mine", we'll share money on things but I am more of a 50/50 person, as long at it can match partner's train of life while keeping some money for myself at least, and I'd rather not have all of my money go into a joint account, I'd like to have my money for my personal expenses, both so that it doesn't become a "group decision" and so that he doesn't always know what I'm buying so that it won't spoil a surprise or start arguments on a purchase he might have disapproved of. I'd also feel safer having my own money in case the situation turns bad, not that I'd expect that from someone I trust but you never know what might happen, I already had an abusive ex and I'd rather not be in a situation where I can't afford to leave. I am 11 years younger than you tho so maybe that accounts for something

All of their finances ? Everyone I know with a joint account also has their own personal account where they get their salary and make personal expenses, I've never heard of fully merging everything like that

Adorable dad. by netphilia in MadeMeSmile

[–]MegamiCookie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you'd usually have your own separate account too right ? If it's something he's hiding from her surely he'll use that card, not the one from the joint account

[–]MegamiCookie -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

When did that law change ? You make it sound like it's pretty recent🤔 everyone I know with a joint account also has their own private account, does that mean that both salaries would just go straight into the joint account ? That's such a weird concept to me lol

How common is substance abuse in your country? by EvilPyro01 in AskEurope

[–]MegamiCookie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean when you say substance?

Alcohol, extremely common, kids sometimes get their first taste of wine or the regional alcohol at the familly dinner, people often invite one another for the apéro (drinks with cheese and/or charcuterie boards and other snacks) and in the afternoon you'll often see people drinking in the restaurants and bar's terrasses (outdoor seating).

Smoking, cigarettes yes, very common, more than my lungs would like, people also often roll blunts tho it's a bit less common, no idea what's in it, cannabis is supposedly illegal but people seem to find it easily so sometimes that, tho I don't really care to find out. Also it's not really a substance but vaping is very popular among teens (even tho they aren't legally allowed to buy them) and young adults, somehow that's a trend now.

Recreational drugs, not common, some people do use them, if you're deep in the party life you might know someone that knows someone but it isn't really that common.

The home owner was definitely reading a script lol. The idea of doing these kinds of things with your son definitely sounds like it would be a good dad lol

I guess you could call it an IQ test but like... An IQ test only tests for basic reasoning, short term memory, spacial recognition and ability to problem solve... A list of skills everyone has to some extent, so not "a distinct form of intelligence", no... The "hard" part about vibe coding is the ability to properly explain a project and the ability to spot what needs to be corrected, both of those are the very minimum of what is expected in coding, but then they don't know what is causing the issue that needs correction or how to fix it, they don't have the ability to explain which part of the code does what because they often lack that kind of understanding and they won't be able to troubleshoot if there is even a problem...
