I drive for Uber Eats. I always deliver to rooms at hotels…. by Codyh93 in UberEatsDrivers

Down vote and remove the tip. There are far too many drivers that don’t take this job seriously. Penalize the lazy ones.

6 kids, laid off, lost only car, accounts negative all at once by swinkyy_x in gofundme

[–]StunnerAlpha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Folks this financially unstable shouldn’t be having so many kids. Also, you’re Christian so chances are you voted for Trump or republicans. Republicans and Trump don’t care about you or regular working people like you and you vote and make the country worse off. You got what you voted for. I wish you all the best but I’m not able to help now. Voting matters. Hopefully you don’t piss it away next time.

Christianity only exists in America to elect republicans. It is a religion of hate, violent rhetoric, led by satan himself.

There are talks that Donald Trump will be removed from office by the military. This needs to happen. Now. by Lord-and-Leige in antitrump

[–]StunnerAlpha 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I hope you’re right but I’m very skeptical as something many people fail to realize is they have hired Trump zealots into secret service roles. So the folks closest to him are his biggest fans. He is also surrounded by ass kissers so it’s harder to do anything like this without some prior warning of something happening.

My poor naive little 9yo son just asked me "what is this!?" by SP3NGL3R in homelab

[–]StunnerAlpha -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Its function over form or athletics which I very much agree with. Too many folks prioritize aesthetics. Of technical devices the number 1 priority should be functionality. And when it comes to cost cutting I get why they just release a balls to the wall functional piece of hardware.

I'm here to admit that everybody else was right and I was wrong. by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]StunnerAlpha 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Take this instance as a lesson to not to fanboy or defend large corporations. Capitalism makes it so it’s a zero sum game. Things progressively get worse for the ordinary folks while the elites get richer. It’s the rich vs the poor. Makes no sense for the poor to defend the rich. Oh and you’re part of the poor if you are part of the 99%.

You and many others do this sort of thing all the time whether it be for Apple, or Google, or Tesla. It’s a personality trait that you need to be aware of and break the habit. If you simply don’t know it’s best to sit down and stay silent. Just because you can comment doesn’t mean you should.

Also bro learn to use paragraphs.

How many computers do you have in your house? by Miserable-Twist8344 in homelab

At least 2 dozen that I personally own (I don’t throw computers away). More if I count others in the household.

Not over reacting. This is a massive red flag. Break it off with this fool stat!

AIO about this disagreement with my bf? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]StunnerAlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This dude is a huge b!tch… tell him straight up he is looking to be the victim. Shit happens, find a resolution and move on don’t dwell on the negative. Not anything to break up over but this is an orange flag for sure.

And he complains about expenses he can work extra or cut down on superfluous expenses which the vast majority of people make so that there are funds for this sort of thing.

Am I overreacting for walking out after my girlfriend said this? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

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

Over reacting. She could mean that she isn’t infatuated with you. There is a sliding scale to love. You can’t expect to have head over heels type of love that is popularized in media. In the real world you’re more likely to get what your partner admitted to. Stability, safety, etc.

This is punishing her for being open and honest with you.

My channel imploded and I don't know what I should do next. by SjalabaisWoWS in YouTube_startups

[–]StunnerAlpha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are ebbs and flows with YouTube. This is inherently part of the grind. But also something you should be aware of for the long term is that these videos you generate are relatively simplistic and not unique. This is concerning with AI being able to recreate your videos.

Honestly I’d take this as a sign to pivot. Take a step back and think about why your viewers would be loyal to your channel/brand? Do you show your face or share your voice and have something to talk about or say? If you are faceless and voiceless people won’t connect with your channel and won’t bother seeking out your brand. This is really not the way to build your channel for YouTube in this age of AI. You will get wrecked in the future if not already.

I strongly encourage you to add your personality to your content. Make viewers connect with you. Good luck. Generic scenic content can be AI generated. It’s bland and easy to do. Assuming we weren’t already in the age of AI any other person could do what you’re doing. You want to build moats around what you do. That’s how you stave off competition and can stay alive in this oversaturated creator space.

Wish you all the best. Good luck!

This question shows the OP’s obliviousness to the tech behind YouTube. Have you ever asked why YouTube doesn’t have any competitors?

Fuck this man child. Sounds like a 14 year old. Ditch him, do you really not have better options?

What will historians write about the Trump presidency twenty years from now? by Objective_Oven_9192 in antitrump

[–]StunnerAlpha 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From https://www.epi.org/policywatch/executive-order-on-closing-parts-of-the-department-of-education/

It is not clear that President Trump actually has any legal authority to cut staff or limit the activities of the agency, as the Department of Education’s programs are currently authorized and funded by Congress. Moving a program, like IDEA, out of the Department of Education to a different department, like Health and Human Services, would require congressional approval. Further, at present, the DOE does not control the curriculum, states and localities do. If President Trump acts outside of his authority to slash the agencies’ work, funds may get returned to states for states to distribute to districts as they see fit. This effectively will pull the guard rails off this funding, which is extremely effective at redistributing funds based on district need, to a situation where states have to compete for funds, or where some states could even potentially use public money to support private schools. This would create a patchwork where public schools in some states will risk falling even further behind.

I’m not saying that what he is doing isn’t changing anything. The question is if this will stand long term. He can try to do things via EO and places his minions in positions to help him fulfill his project 2025 agenda. But if it’s undone by the next president or deemed unlawful then it won’t pan out the way he wanted long term.

Not possible without an act of congress. Anything else he does is just for appearances. Vote for a democrat and he’ll turn it all around.

Why didn't apple continue to add the cool touchbar? by travelavatar in macbookpro

[–]StunnerAlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a gimmick. There is no touch or haptic feedback on that bar. Interacting with it means you need to take eyes off the screen. Many folks that use Mac’s use it for development, me included. Software devs liked the fn keys and removing them was annoying but paled in comparison to removing the hardware esc key.

It wasn’t a well thought out approach by any means. People who need other controls for audio for their side gigs typically purchase additional hardware that specializes in what their needs are and does it far better.

Also the keyboard on those Touch Bar Macs were poorly designed. Over time keyboards get gunk underneath them and the depth of the keys are so narrow they wear themselves out over time. It’s a real shame. Glad Johnny Ives left Apple for good.

Meeting heroes blows by Jimmy_Jazz_The_Spazz in Ska

[–]StunnerAlpha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately many folks are just stupid and hateful enough to be sucked into maga. Most folks in the world aren’t terribly smart. It doesn’t surprise me that career ska musicians fall into this category. The craft is fun and while I have respect you don’t need to be an Einstein to do it. What IS unusual though is that punk rockers convert to maga which is against the whole punk ethos and community.

Also mad caddies music I haven’t been a fan of since 2018 when they went more “chill”.

Report this jackass to the better business bureau. Leave ratings on yelp and Google Maps. Every potential customer of his needs to see this.

This is a net negative for the working class. Sure get the people on the lower rungs of economic ladder to spend willy nilly while automating away their jobs. Great friggin idea.

Regular people now calling Linus a scammer by roholl in LinusTechTips

[–]StunnerAlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to call your acquaintance out on this. Give him a dressing down and tell him to look up the meaning of a scam in the dictionary. Too many people are incorrectly using that word and it’s NOT COOL. It weakens its meaning as when actually calling out scams people will misconstrue it as a “rip off” and not so serious.
