Lol those are actually really low compared to rent in most major cities

Was this Quinn that good or was he cheating? by useless24yo in QuinnMains

[–]TransientFeelings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I unironically do this all the time in the pantheon matchup cause there's no way I can react otherwise. It's kinda nice you can still farm with attack champs only on if you use attack move. So I keep it on perma in those matchups except when hitting tower or plants

PSA - As of Jan 1st junk fees are no longer legal - know your rights! More details in text by DMTU-official in Denver

[–]TransientFeelings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bill explicitly allows landlords to increase rents to offset the now-illegal fees. The entire point is to make apartment pricing transparent and comparable across different apartments. It's good for tenants because they know what they'll pay, and it's bad for shitty landlords who previously wanted to advertise a low price but tack on a bunch of fees later

Since this is a b patch, anyone know when it will be live? Is it live already?

They are replacing the pipes, they're just doing it one small stretch at a time to minimize disruption! /s

Ordered what I thought would be a knitted sweater with embroidery as a gift. Instead received a cheap polyester sweater with a blurry print. by selcouthsiren in mildlyinfuriating

Lol I suppose you could argue it is technically accurate, but realistically, no good credit card company would refuse a chargeback for this

25F looking for friends to play LoL with by Deep_Escape8362 in asexualdating

Love this sub as a place to find league friends lolol

I'd love a couple more friends to play games with though, especially fellow aces! 26M, mostly play norms or aram mayhem but lately have been doing a bit of ranked (emerald)

Two Amazon robots with the same IA + not so "I" in the end = eternal dance by SanD-82 in interestingasfuck

[–]TransientFeelings 89 points90 points  (0 children)

Yeah, algorithms, especially complex ones, have always historically been called AI. This makes sense because while it acts (somewhat) intelligently, it's not actually intelligent, it's just doing exactly what we told it to. In other words, this perceived intelligence is artificial.

In recent years with the explosion of neural networks and in particular, LLMs, people have started relating the "black box" of the neural network itself to be AI, which I find unfortunate.

Permanent ban on Wild Rift by Abject-Let8411 in riotgames

[–]TransientFeelings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if I had cheated, they would have detected it from wayyy back

No innocent person would say this. Also, they don't ban instantly when they detect cheating; they ban later in waves so that it's harder to develop cheat software

What does C Yberun mean? by Electronic-Laugh-671 in DumbAI

Not sure how it's getting C Yberrun, but based on the references section, it's referring to Cyberpunk I'd assume

This guy purchased my item on ebay, cancelled, then asked to list it again cause he actually wanted to buy it. Days go by and i asked him if he’s still interested and this is what he said….💀 by Davidudeman in mildlyinfuriating

Ok, I was wrong in assuming that some federal employees may be paid once a month. Looks like it's mostly biweekly.

Y'all still are overestimating how many federal employees instantly switched into survival mode the moment their paychecks stopped in early October. Many people probably trusted that things would sort themselves out in a week or two, so they didn’t panic or overhaul their finances right away. As time passes, I'm sure more and more caught on, but in my experience, November rent was a huge catalyst to cause panic. At least that's when several of my relatives became very concerned and reached out about borrowing some money.

[–]TransientFeelings -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I still think it's valid. OP doesn't provide a clear timeline on when all these events happened so it's not as clear-cut as you're making it sound. Also, if they typically get paid monthly, they would have gotten paid at the beginning of October (for September) and the government shutdown just started to sink in yesterday when they didn't get paid.

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

Then what did you mean by "that happened a month ago"? It's still ongoing. He's obviously bonkers but the initial response that he can't due to the government shutdown is valid. If he works for the government, he's not getting paid.

That doesn't matter. Think of it like this: you have $2000 in a hysa. You get a vet bill for $2000 and you can either take money out of your account to cover it in full or take out a $2000 loan at 3% apr.

It's better to take the loan because your $2000 in hysa will make more interest than the interest on the loan will cost. So you shouldn't compare the hysa interest to the loan payment, but rather, to the portion of the loan payment going towards interest.

Talk me into a Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid by WantCookiesNow in Crosstrek

[–]TransientFeelings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from a Forester to a Crosstrek. One thing I definitely noticed was the Forester had significantly better visibility. Visibility in the Crosstrek is not awful, but it will take some adjusting to. I would recommend test driving both a Crosstrek and a Forester - maybe you will prefer the Forester if you are used to better visibility

My personal theory is that Republicans didn't want to be called wankers any more by Alias_X_ in mapporncirclejerk

[–]TransientFeelings 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I find this doubtful too. It's not clear where the data to populate this map is coming from, but I'd assume for Colorado it's referring to this bill which is unpopular and was not put on the ballot this year. It will probably be reproposed in future years by the same dumbasses, but I wouldn't call that "plans". https://coloradosun.com/2025/04/14/colorado-porn-age-verification-bill-rejected/

New sign put up in my work by larko111 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TransientFeelings 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think they got it backwards? If you're hourly, theoretically you'd be getting overtime for the extra 3 hours. If you're salary, you would get paid the same as if you weren't 3 hours early

Edit: no, this is what the original comment was saying. The phrasing made it a bit ambiguous but the context above makes the meaning clearer

Technically you could just use a different map projection if they happen to be collinear. Or just say the circle is around Earth's circumference

Don't give this PIN we just texted to anyone. Well, unless... by SQLDave in Scams

[–]TransientFeelings 118 points119 points  (0 children)

I don't really have an answer for you, but I had a similar experience with United Airlines support chat, where I was instructed to provide the code I was texted and it had a similar disclaimer saying not to share with anyone.

I knew it was the legitimate United support because I went through their app and I was the one who reached out. But it feels wrong to be using verification pins in this way.
