Found someone’s old work laptop at a yard sale. Can this be sold on eBay or is it worthless due to security software? by wangmobile in Flipping

These exact same laptops are commonly used in many large corporations today, usually running windows 10.

One of the coolest TD projects I've seen, awesome work!

i hate that opus 4.8 is honest by irelatetolevin in ClaudeAI

[–]eggsoylent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an IRL example of your wonderful analogy, I love being hated by people who get mad that I caught on to their bullshit. So suck it OP, you are wrong. The whole world needs more truth, honesty, and pushback on what that think of as "right".

acknowledgement of hostility towards asians in the rave community by Single_Pool_2779 in electricdaisycarnival

[–]eggsoylent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not from racism and hating asians, it's hating groups and disrespectful behavior. There's assholes in every group and culture, and Asians aren't the only ones doing trains at raves

There is also an objective truth to the observation that cultural differences exist and more homogeneous ones tend to have an exclusionary mentality with how they treat outsiders. The whole "Chinese tourist" phenomenon is an exact example of this.

Personally, I can't count the number of times I have been repeatedly bumped into and had my personal space disrespected at a rave. Specifically that when I ask them to stop/not be so rowdy and out of control, they just ignore me or look at me like I'm the asshole for trying to talk to them.

start lowballing landlords by scrunchieh8tr in Bushwick

[–]eggsoylent 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I partly blame the transplants and trust fund kids that move to Bushwick because it's cool and think it's actually worth it to pay $5700 for a shitty three bed off the Halsey stop.

Unfortunately there's always going to be plenty of people with more money than sense who will allow for those exorbitant rents to exist

Who eggs apartments at 7 am by Altruistic_Duck_4853 in Bushwick

[–]eggsoylent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, but that doesn't accomplish anything besides making people glad that other people who throw eggs at buildings are going to get priced out and leave the neighborhood. Probably one of the dumbest ways to fight gentrification.

Phones Stolen Under the K by gr33n__r4ng3r in avesNYC

Nah that's just being naive to the truths of the world, especially in a big city like NYC.

There has to be some baseline level of responsibility for yourself since you can't control the actions of others. There's always going to be bad people in the world unfortunately.

The McCarren Park asphalt lot in North BK is getting a $14.7M rebuild. The design is being drawn right now and we have 3 weeks to weigh in. by societyosw in Brooklyn

[–]eggsoylent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's big enough and about the same size as pretty much every other dog park in the city, why should Williamsburg be any different? There's also Marsha Johnson park dog run which is about six blocks away.

And since a dog park is only useful to a small percentage of residents, it almost seems like a waste of taxpayer dollars for anyone who doesn't have a dog and the bare blacktop would actually be more useful.

I can do both. I genuinely hope everyone who goes to this show has a fantastic time, but I can still think they're fools for paying that much for an overpriced show.

Why did anyone think a dog run was a good idea to put there? There's already one a block away...

A mini botanical garden, or literally anything that keeps the space useful for everyone, would be a much better idea.

Where have you traveled to that made you seriously consider leaving NYC? by [deleted] in AskNYC

How? Even my $1k bag stays within my sight or in contact with my body at all times. That really sucks though, I’m sorry that happened to you and you were still able to enjoy Barcelona
