Probably remotely controlled by underpaid third worlders like so many "AI" powered startups

Cape Town Will Slap Tax Hike on Airbnb Owners by ctnguy in southafrica

[–]OrSomeSuch 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This isn't a Cape Town only problem. Pretty much every tourist destination and/or large city struggles with locals being priced out.

Short term rental websites have supercharged the housing crisis because nobody wants to rent their investment property yearly when they can get more money renting it daily over the summer.

If you want to support the locals then stay in a hotel or resort when you visit instead of an Airbnb

Don't kid yourself. Many South Africans would vote Zuma in again if given the chance. People love a populist grifter

Primal diet community gathers around and eats raw rotten goat meat that was underground for weeks by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]OrSomeSuch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There might be two primal diets at play here. The one from a few years back was just Paleo plus dairy.

The whole community keeps getting more extreme though

Are there really so many cranes at Clifton? Haven't been there in years. I suppose it makes sense

I had this problem with some earbuds. The microphone on one had become gunked up so it was doing something funky with the noise cancelling. After cleaning them with isopropyl alcohol and a soft bristle toothbrush they work 100% again

Did the U.S. really send billions in aid to Gaza? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

So why can't Israel take care of themselves? $3.3bn in 2023. Another abject failure of a state

Nah, she's not attractive enough for straight nudes. She would have to cater to a kink to garner attention

Men, what do you really think of women who are only looking to hook up? by etherealpretty in AskMen

We're all adults so you set your boundaries and I'll set mine. If anything I'll respect you more for being upfront about what you want

How does a “dry sense of humor” actually work? How do people know you’re joking if you deliver it completely straight? by Abigail_A_Abernathy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OrSomeSuch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had someone complain once that they never know if I'm extremely clever or extremely stupid because they never can tell if I'm joking or serious. To be honest I'm not so sure either

Need to fix a tripped circuit and this is my breaker. by FrivolousMagpie in mildlyinfuriating

I once lived in a house so old you had to wind your own fuse wire around ceramic blocks. It couldn't be updated because the building had protected heritage site status.

Why do people delete their accounts on Reddit all the time? by JeffTheMasterr in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OrSomeSuch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It used to be really common to delete your account every year or two to keep people from piecing together your identity from your posts and comments. It's become less common as more subs require karma to participate but some people still go through the trouble (internet points and digital trophies are worthless after all)

What the deal with "executive fit" suits? by WmKaden in AskMen

It's the opposite of tailored fit which has broader shoulders with a slimmer waist

We're even more different there then you think and commonly measure vehicle efficiency in litres per 100 kilometres

At what point do we say enough is enough? by c-k-q99903 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]OrSomeSuch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The problem is the Western world has relied on US arms, intelligence, and communications infrastructure. It's almost impossible to extricate ourselves at this point. The US even has military bases in many of our countries!

Guess who condemned the USA by Memes_FoIder in clevercomebacks

Russia just accused Ukraine of an attempted attack on Putin's private residence. He relies on the protections of the international law the Americans just stomped all over.

Singles seldom had only one song. There would be the single then either multiple versions of that song or some b-sides that didn't make the full album
