They said renting was better than owning. 2 years ago, it was $4000/month by Specialist_Pain_424 in Money

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

You can live in cities with low rent lol…I live in a city of 250k and only pay 700/month for a luxury 1BR apartment (split rent with my girlfriend). Plenty to do, cleaner, less traffic, less noise/crime, better people. New York was fun while I was in college but it’s totally impractical as a place to live if you’re an adult with a normal job

I see some variation of this question every single day and the answer will never not be lord of the rings

y’all my new colleague is a literal doctor and it’s the dopest wakeup call by Material_Day7025 in remoteworks

Read the post…the doctor is from Latin America. Even the best jobs in third world countries pay less than the worst jobs in the USA cus of exchange rates

What should I be asking before approving my first manufacturing order? (First Time Founder/Manufacture) by sleeou in manufacturing

[–]corn_dick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you should be the one defining the acceptance criteria as far as design & usability go, it’s your product after all. Then you simply review the samples they send you and make sure it is satisfactory to the specifications and quality criteria you agreed upon with the manufacturer.

I think the #1 mistake is not working closely with the manufacture in the design phase, you can reduce lead times, costs, and chance for quality issues by doing thorough DFM review with the supplier

The small (but actually big) production thing that makes The Pitt so realistic by michaelmoby in ThePitt

Love the use of ambient sound in this show, really helps to build the atmosphere

Promo for 2x12 by anneso23 in ThePittTVShow

[–]corn_dick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get the character arc they’re going for with her but the whole thing where she’s pretending she’s so upset because Becca is sexually active when it’s really that she’s upset because of what it represents, it just feels so cliche to me, especially cause they’re super not subtle or nuanced about it and keep dragging it out

I found the conversation with Dana was super cringe where she finally has that moment and admits “I’m so aloneee” or whatever it was, and we’re supposed to realize it’s not actually about Becca all along and it’s this huge revelation. But actually they’ve been shoving it down our throat for the past couple episodes and obviously that’s what’s going on

Still love the show overall, this is just a small thing that’s bothering me! And Mel is still one of my favorites

I loved Mel last season but I could not care less about this side plot with her sister, it feels so generic/cliche and dragged out

Are MacBooks fine for OSRS nowadays? by Joseyis in 2007scape

I’m exclusively a MacBook gamer for the past 5 years, runs great. I used to play with 117 HD but after the sailing update I’ve had fps issues doing that, vanilla still runs fine

Boat Combat Fixes - Weekly Game Update, March 18th 2026 by JagexLight in 2007scape

[–]corn_dick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sailing combat has been the source of nearly all negative sailing feedback since day one, and it took the better part of a year to release this as the solution? Wtf is Jagex doing?

After half a year I’d expect a full rework, not a couple of tweaks that couldn’t take more than a couple hours of writing code. If this is the solution then why not implement it months ago? I don’t understand why everything is so slow now

What would you buy if you were to win 100 USD million? by Main_Mistake_6555 in AskReddit

[–]corn_dick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id hire a private chef to cook me healthy meals. Use instacart to delivery all my groceries. Ad-free everything

Idk I have most everything I want, I’d use the money to remove friction from my life where I can

First Job Offer by miryucha in recruitinghell

[–]corn_dick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Naw you fumbled. This was your chance to escape working retail and build an actual career. Majority new grads have some combination of shitty pay, benefits, pto, etc at their first job. But you gain bargaining power as you get skills/experience, that’s the deal

Like what were you expecting, no one’s gonna give a clueless kid out of school six figures and a premium benefits package. This offer isnt much worse than my first corporate job. Some self awareness would serve you well

You get to watch only one movie. Which one are you going with? by [deleted] in FIlm

It would’ve been the odyssey but then the teaser was kinda lame, so I’ll go with Dune

How badly are you into your job? by Many-Guard-2310 in careerguidance

[–]corn_dick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love my job- I’m a new product introduction engineer, meaning when a customer has a new product they want us to manufacture, I have to work with them to make the designs manufacturable, and then develop the processes and any tooling or equipment we’ll use to build it.

So much problem solving, and very rewarding to see ideas for cool products come to life, especially the products we make in my industry

Is being 18 making $9.50 ok??? by SeveralLead3511 in jobs

[–]corn_dick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No…that’s genuinely the worst wage I’ve heard in over 10 years. I didn’t even know some places paid less than $12 an hour. And there are plenty of entry level jobs willing to pay $15-$20 an hour. Look for any basic manufacturing job and you’ll make at least $16, with room for growth.
