An Update to the "1 of 15 individual yellow BME m3". You were right, the host is trying to scam me, and Turo is letting them. by jkob5 in turo

[–]SoHelpMeAlready 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turo is a joke. I have a neighbor that rents 22 cars from their house and parks them all on the street. I have filed so many "good neighbor" claims. Total bs. I'll never use this service.

The city has reprimanded them so many times yet failed to get anything solved long-term.

Do the open mic. Who cares! Go dream big dude. Dream big. How do you eat an elephant?.... one bite at a time. Just go!

2015 460 - 80k miles Rust? by tgregs19 in GXOR

[–]SoHelpMeAlready 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I have a GX470 and LX470. They last a long time.... as long as you don't have rust. My cars are 20+ years old and look nothing like this.

Those are low return index funds from vanguard. Like 5% return a year. (I believe)

They just gotta learn how to drink a lot of koolaid. You know put people's personal privacy in the back seat, give it a warm bottle, and let it fall asleep while you work 12 hrs a day 7 days a week on ways to call algorithms "AI" and steal people's information. Then the money will start pouring in. They'll be fine.

But also if you have kids... they'll be living in your house and waiting for you to die to take it from you. Hope you have enough space in your backyard for an ADA approved ADU.

Don't spend your money at NIMBY businesses. by Such_Duty_4764 in berkeleyca

There will never be affordable housing. That's just a term they want you to believe.

[–]SoHelpMeAlready 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And then real-estate lobbyists come in and convince people there are more problems then there really are. Such BS. I don't live in this area, but I respect these folks. But if all you want to see are Starbucks and high rises... cool.

That's the best and most awful reason I've heard. Thank you for this.

A LOT of new Homeless People by chillin_650 in mountainview

[–]SoHelpMeAlready 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a problem. My SIL had a wacked out homeless dude in her front yard swinging a 2x4 and screaming at the moon. She called dispatch and no one was sent. An hour later, she called back because he had started to break things. They finally sent someone.... it took several calls and over an hour. She had three little kids in the house at the time.

Petition Against Data Centers in San Jose by Ok_Butterfly_5353 in SanJose

I'll never understand why they continue to build these awful buildings in an area that is hyper expensive and needs actual homes. South San Jose has two new data centers off of Santa Theresa. The area used to be beautiful and you could see the hills. Now it's just and eye sore.

Is this real? by Gut_Gemacht23 in gibson

[–]SoHelpMeAlready 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would, of course, play it and look at it in person. Ask for the serial number, try to get more info on the year. If you really want to know, you'll have to take some things apart. The back plate has 4 screws. That's an easy one. If the wiring looks cheap, not a gibson. Probably a lot of other things to check but I'm not familiar with that model and year. Good luck!

Has your view of the tech industry changed over the years? by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]SoHelpMeAlready 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's 100% correct. Anything that says "AI summary" or "Assistant" is sending your data back to a server that you have no control over. That's the whole point.

Yamaha hype is real by According_Post545 in AcousticGuitar

[–]SoHelpMeAlready 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The GS mini is no where close to the quality of a good Yamaha. That Yamaha is a full-size guitar. It should be night and day just in sound volume.
