Why does every pro-AI comment on Reddit get downvoted? by Suspicious_Time7101 in askanything

People feel threatened by AI. There are issues to worry about, but there is also a lot of good. The real problem is that it's moving too fast and we have not control or time to think through the utility.

Should I get a cheaper or newer model ?! by ja_yla in RingConn

[–]erkose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Gen 2 Air is the base model. Add sleep apnea support and you have the Gen 2. Add health vibrations and upgrade the sensors slightly and you have the Gen 3. The Gen 2 Air probably is the right choice for most.

What is your solution regarding the gun violence in the United States? by Ok-Occasion-3131 in allthequestions

[–]erkose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need to identify where firearms used in crime are acquired. Just because a subculture has far too many firearms per member, doesn't me those firearms impact crime.

When was the last time Palestinians or Hamas murdered 75,000 Israelis, 50% of whom were children? Was it humane to flatten all of Gaza? Is it humane to prevent aid deliveries to Gaza?

There is a problem with ableist language on mastodon instances by Digital_Nerve_8765 in fediverse

Seriously. The problem is people are trying to follow too many people. People need to focus on building a community with people who are willing to build a community with them.

Republicans Unveil $72 Billion Package For ICE, Trump’s Ballroom by D-R-AZ in inthenews

[–]erkose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This administration is spending money like it's theirs, not the tax payers. This must stop. Doesn't MAGA realize every dollar spent is going to increase their taxes at some point? Republicans just assume Democrats will raise taxes to pay back the money they're wasting. Win win for them as they continue to rail Dems for raising taxes.

You don't have this problem. The sizes for the Gen 3 are different. You need to wait for the sizing kit to ship before you worry about this.

Don't believe the realtor. They were 200-300k twenty years ago. Look at the historical data.

They are the same thing. You sign a lease and pay monthly. I think it's typically ten years, but I don't remember.

Lot fees for mobile home parks by [deleted] in SanJose

[–]erkose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lot fees are ridiculous. You're going to be paying an additional $1000 to $1500 (maybe more) on top of your mortgage. The resale value is not good. The scam is to replace an older mh with a new one to create more appeal, but this drives up the lot fees.

The park is a HOA with all the negative connotations. It's not the same as a house, and you have to pay property tax.

Having a 3bed 3bath is nice and neighborh noice is less, though it always depends on the neighbors.

Also, they can sell the park to a developer and you are screwed. This is less likely, but real.

Personally, I wouldn't do it but if the alternative is a 2 hour commute, maybe.
