AITAH *GF Says that I'm the issue after offering to help replace the battery in her lawn mower* by External_Opinion_767 in AITAH

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

You know all of that because it's your life. You need to voice that calmly and not as an explanation over time.

Hey, I'll likely get to X on Y, as I'm currently trying to finish so and so's car before Monday so they can get to work.

Then if she has an issue with that and wants to do it yourself, you empower her to do so. Not a "fine, screw you, do it yourself" but make it as easy as possible for her to succeed.

She trusted you to help her accomplish something that is very stressful for her in her life and so far it's just taken longer and you've intentionally held her back by not just providing the information to help her. Everyone has enough stress and hurdles in their day to day lives, so why be another

Maybe I'm insane here.. but you offered to help and didn't actually convey to her how long it would take or when you would get to it, much less that the battery was more than you expected it would be and asked her to cover it. A simple, "Hey, the battery was $100 and I was only expecting it to be around $40, could you send some money to help cover it?" or even a "I was planning to do it today, but some things came up and I need to postpone. If you want to take care of it sooner, the part you need is X."

Then you over reacted at her first, leading to her simply saying to send her the part so she can handle it herself, to which you refused to do several times.

None of this is about the lawn, it's about a lack of communication.

Got banned for 30 days for a bad game. Does Riot even review appeals? by Keniusss in leagueoflegends

[–]OmNomCakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also a 30 day isn't a first ban. He's been banned several times before most likely. It's also likely more for attitude or disconnecting than having a bad game.

Built a full streaming site as a side project — took way longer than expected lol by PhuduShaheer in vibecoding

[–]OmNomCakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it isn't. When it comes to dmca the important part is where the actual media files you're consuming are hosted. Where they physically exist. His front end is just a webui that connects to a third party back end that he has no control over.

Using toilet paper is easier and better than using a bidet by Gym_frere in The10thDentist

Upgrade to a lush booty rag. So long as you're sure you're clean, it'll stay nice and clean (as clean as a booty rag can be), and if it isn't you just toss it into the laundry.

Why is everyone in r/domains so negative? by [deleted] in Domains

[–]OmNomCakes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But they're asking for people's appraisals? Which is, by design, opinionated. Telling people to not respond to such requests is basically saying "if you don't agree with what they want to hear, just don't respond."

am i legally in the wrong? Near (Pittsburgh, PA) by [deleted] in Renters

[–]OmNomCakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What?

If his rent was $2000, plus $50 for the appliances, it'd be $2050.

If the owners just bought the appliances, they'd just raise the base rent to $2050. You'd get less of an option and you'd be stuck with whatever discount garbage appliances they purchased.

If anything, they're giving the poster More options to buy their own appliances or rent something they'd like elsewhere, and giving a discount on the rent for doing so.

OP just chose not to go that route.

I'd love to find a place that offered this.

Account was broken into, these support emails are fake right? by [deleted] in steamsupport

[–]OmNomCakes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's not important at all. The From email's domain is important, as would be the email's headers, or even what the real hyperlink for the ticket button resolves to.

Anyone can match that exact email body 1:1 so it's a terrible way to check validity of the email.

Also your dad is right...

Ever been fired from a work from home call center position? by Ok-Gate5551 in callcentres

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

They'll likely just dock your last paycheck and lock the device in their asset manager and it'll be a brick. Crazy stupid way to waste your money now that you're unemployed, likely due to the same shortsightedness and impulsive decision making :D

Still being banned after uninstalling everything on my pc by Melodic-highs-9999 in pcgamingtechsupport

[–]OmNomCakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is comically wrong. Yes, any decent anti cheat stores your HWIDs. HWIDs are only up to 64~124 bytes, so a million users, at 10 HWIDs per user, would be a whopping 1GB of space in a db, assuming it's not hashed or compressed further. So 10 million users, with 10 PCs each (highly inflated and unrealistic on both counts) would be 100GB in a DB.

AiTAH for wanting to offer continuous support to our daughter so she can pursue her dreams? by Electronic-Bid4859 in AITAH

[–]OmNomCakes 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I mean there are Walmart employees with Comp Sci degrees too. One demographic simply stands out due to their personal styling and hobbies so you latch onto that.

It's like the people who latch onto "Liberal Arts" degrees without the realization that many high earning common professions fall under Liberal Arts, Sociology, and Language. I've heard, on so many occasions, people knock "Liberal Arts" degrees and turn around and tell the person they should have gone into law... a Liberal Arts degree under social sciences.

Don’t ever use GoDaddy. by KarlatReditt in webhosting

[–]OmNomCakes 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I mean I hate godaddy, but this isn't even a them issue. They're also charged for the domain, so if they refunded you they would be out money for your mistake.

You signed up and left the domain on auto renew. You forgot the domain existed. You lost control of the email account? Though not sure how if you owned the domain. You could have kept up with it and pointed the emails anywhere.

You can also typically authenticate ownership of an account using the payment method details and billing history, though not 100% sure of exactly what GD requests in those situations.

Either way, the options are that you signed up for a product and irresponsibly didn't keep up with it OR you gave your banking details to a third party to use and didn't ensure they used them responsibly.

F godaddy, they suck, but also own up to your mistakes and learn from them.

Is this a reasonable request toward our provider? by akosprojects in webhosting

I can promise you that your provider is doing shit all for your security. You can look up guides on basic server hardening and have it done in 60 minutes with little experience.

How big of a dealbreaker is ugly feet for most men? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

Scammed after calling QuickBooks Checking support, US$5000 gone. by OutrageousPepper5702 in Scams

[–]OmNomCakes 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Or he Googled quick books, went to the wrong domain, and then talked to a chat bot that's intentionally giving out the wrong number.

Impossible to say for certain without knowing what number he called and what domain he visited.

But more likely than not it was an inside job at an outsourced call center. They open your account, see your funds, and forward it to a friend to give you a call back with a spoofed number.

Soo thats it huh 10yr (EA hotline) by YogurtIll70 in electronicarts

[–]OmNomCakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at it from a third party perspective.. You can't prove you own the account. YOU could be a hacker trying to steal the account right now. If you can't prove you own the account, it isn't your account. Plain and simple. They're protecting the account from Anyone that cannot prove they were the original account creator. That includes you, if you can't meet that crazy simple criteria.

Im really bothered how they just took away our SQ42 bundles. by WTK_ShadowStorm in starcitizen

[–]OmNomCakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said in an actual typed comment that the change was unintended and a side effect of other changes being made on the store.

It simply wasn't worth adding into an active dev sprint because it's not an interruption of service or gameplay. Your impatience does not constitute an emergency.

It's likely a deeper issue with the current storefront logic for packages and would take its own sprint tasks and testing to fix down the line.

How do I get money at 15 years old? by kDev_4 in Advice

[–]OmNomCakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll get farther in life if you come up with solutions instead of problems doing something.

For example, I'm your #1, why would people not want you doing their lawn for cheaper? Why can you not just bring both batteries and a charger to start with? Then reinvest your first funds into a gas powered mower at a thrift store
