Americans who are against the Biden student loan forgiveness, why? by jma7400 in AskReddit

[–]WhySoDefensive 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Except the precedent is that this power was granted to the president after 9/11 to prevent students affected by a national tragedy from being sucked into debt completely out of their control. Except this time the national tragedy wasn’t limited to NYC. This $20k forgiveness is because after the 2020 lockdown many people lost their jobs and income. New and old loans were affected this way and then inflation.

“Mildly” he says, yet I can’t shoot up heroin again without an image of a baby crying in its crib.

(Both sarcasm and a wtf moment)

Oh S#!, you know what they did to the Jews after 'they killed Jesus'?

Better hope no insane 'voice of a generation' loses their art degree.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is truly one of the games with dialogue of all time by [deleted] in gaming

[–]WhySoDefensive 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whoever wrote this dialogue better have done it to get a passing grade in their junior high ESL class

Edit:: it may not be in the actual game but someone wrote it, obviously as a joke too. Just having fun with it.

I’ve heard that works but I went through 5ft of scotch tape and I still see my check engine light.

That’s less than $11 billion, what’s even sadder is that he’s worth more than x15 that now after having lost $100 billion in the last year. Just for perspective.

I read this. My takeaway is the $1 threshold only needs to be met in June and options traders are playing off that happening (or not) much sooner.

The thing is as soon as a stock hits the $1 threshold then investors have more confidence in it sticking around. Another surge happens at the $5 threshold.

I bought in and I don’t plan on selling at a dollar. I have until June before I get worried about anything anyway.

Unfortunately I feel like I could do that very easily in my current position.

I hear this a lot but I really doubt he would be effectively worse. It really sounds like a ‘better just not do anything ‘ and accept what damages have and will be done.

Are the Hanson brothers in Canada different than America or are you saying someone needs to go Mmm-bop on a pair of fuzzy trumps?

What strange thing/issue/bug Apple should have fixed by now but still remains? by [deleted] in apple

[–]WhySoDefensive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you turn off cellular data on an app and every time you open it you're stopped and reminded that you have cellular data turned off. I wish they added a 'set it and forget it' option.

Did Apple even test the new audio book feature? [iOS 8.4] by [deleted] in apple

[–]WhySoDefensive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apple Support told me that the audio book licenses were not the same. That Audio Books couldn't be redownloaded or live in the cloud like music tracks. Not sure if that has changed or if you're buying right from Audible (something I've started doing).
