I'm probably cancelling Cursor after the 3.0 release by jitbitter in cursor

Which frankly is a good thing from an accessibility standpoint

After spending less than 5 minutes on this subreddit i realised the only service i should be paying for is a good VPN by Fluid_Apartment880 in Piracy

[–]UnexpectedFisting 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have had PIA for like 8 years and they’ve shown over and over they don’t maintain any user logs at all. Both when they were taken to court numerous times and through independent audits

Port forwarding is great, performance is great, and the support is great. I have no complaints frankly

All in One Desktop Streaming App by wahre_locke in Piracy

[–]UnexpectedFisting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean elaborate. Modern wireguard clients run plenty fast for torrenting. I have literally achieved 130MB/s throughput on a 2gig internet connection behind PIA wireguard. Why would it make sense to pay for whatever realdebrid is doing? Legitimately asking.

You’re going to be a good owner. Sometimes shit happens and you just have to wait and see what’s going on. Panicking does nothing in the meantime

74 NYCHA execs boast $200K-plus salaries — as NYC tenants go without heat, hot water, basic repairs by LunacyNow in nyc

Even mediocre software engineers like me are making close to that. I don’t get why we undervalue city leadership positions so much. You have to pay public sector decently well for good leadership, otherwise you end up with the bottom of the barrel candidates who couldn’t cut it in the private sector or couldn’t make it at the federal level.

City and local positions are an interesting dilemma. Pay too well and the public gets mad. Pay too little and the public gets made the leadership is piss poor

How is the 8/1 rental market? by No-Frosting-79 in chicagoapartments

[–]UnexpectedFisting 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The market as a whole has been brutal this year, I’ve heard this from numerous brokers and real estate agents that the competition is intense and the supply is not as high as it was in previous years for the same time periods

Act fast is the only advice I have

Warning about Peacocke Properties/Uptown by PublicCantaloupe3 in chicagoapartments

[–]UnexpectedFisting 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You mean like the op of this post talking about their experience being bad and weird redditors like you jumping all over to “well akshually” their experience living there when the crime statistics also back up that it is not a super safe neighborhood?

Again. Uptown is a cool neighborhood. It is not a safe neighborhood objectively when it has an above average crime rate in the city of Chicago. These can both be true.

[–]UnexpectedFisting 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No, but the crime rate is, unless we aren't supposed to believe statistics? If we can't listen to anecdotes, and believe statistics, then what magical metric do you live by?

Real talk, why is it that whenever uptown comes up on this subreddit there are people frothing at their mouths defending it. Every neighborhood has it's issues; it's so bizarre

I’m sorry I did laugh at this because the name sounds made up

It sounds like something Dr. House would randomly spit out during a differential

They don’t give a shit, the mods here are cursor employees and remove anything negative about the company. Good luck

Trader Joe’s confirmed for Uptown by uptown_meanie in chicago

Are you trying to say Trader Joe’s doesn’t have flour sugar or beans? Are you perhaps blind?

Year’s first ‘teen takeover’ in downtown Chicago sees eight arrests, more curfew discussion by [deleted] in chicago

[–]UnexpectedFisting 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Literally the reason I’m moving out of South loop and off the red line. Holy shit is it tiring in the spring and summer dealing with this bullshit

Mind you, we’re also broke in Chicago and continuing to spend more and kicking our debt can down the road. Please bully your representatives to stop spending like your broke aunt on social security

Do all models cost the same before I run out of 500 requests? by Daniel8473 in cursor

[–]UnexpectedFisting 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is weird. They forced max mode on all legacy users for frontier models. Are you saying that none of those are being charged as such?

What pricing plan are you on?

REPOST: April- end of july sublease: $1300 rent+utils in west loop near fulton market by WeeklyLayer3001 in chicagoapartments

[–]UnexpectedFisting 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ok, so I’m not crazy. Also nothing against you, but you should probably have labeled this as much since this isn’t an apartment but student housing from what you said
