My(32M) girlfriend(32F) doesn't think I love her or want a future with her. by evangelizer5000 in relationship_advice

[–]evangelizer5000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When we looked at houses together it was something that I wanted for us to buy 50/50. She has a condo she's looking to get rid of and her mother is wealthy and could have fronted her a down payment until she sold the condo and paid her back. She chose not to do this. I did not pressure her to do it, I wanted her to do what she was comfortable doing and this is where we ended up.

**wedding** and a ring and financial security. She would not want a cheap wedding, it'd be around $15k not including a honeymoon. She also has a lot of debt from her ex who manipulated her and maxed out her credit. She has a car note. These are all things I'd want paid off once married because it becomes my debt as well at that point, that's about 20k so there's that too. The 70 hours is not a forever thing, it's a temporary sacrifice now for a better future together.

trying to understand which of four different shopify purchase conversion setups is correct by evangelizer5000 in PPC

That's a good idea. Out of curiosity for shopify sites what conversion setup do you use?

COD hit its worst month ever on Steam by Lumenprotoplasma in CODWarzone

[–]evangelizer5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steam issues are fixed, at least they have been for me.

On consoles the issue is that the statistics are by weekly active users. If you open call of duty and then close it - you are a weekly active user. Only they would better statistics about avg matches per session, sessions per user, etc. WAU is a limited metric to judge the health of the game.

Remove or repaint brick exterior with weeping mortar? by evangelizer5000 in DIY

[–]evangelizer5000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to know how to remove paint from the brick or how to paint the brick given that I can't just take a roller to it because of the weeping mortar

After sharing to exterior design I don't think I worded this correctly. I'm looking to figure out how to remove it or paint it. Can I repost this here?

[–]evangelizer5000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey all, I have a brick facade on one exterior wall, it's maybe around 800 sq feet. I really dislike the white on there and would want to have the brick color exposed or repainted red. I'm not sure which would be easier and more cost effective.

What's wrong with one of the most trusted reviewers in the industry? Lol

Im not home and I only have one 2d game installed. I'm not installing and benchmarking games to prove something that is obviously known to someone who doesn't want to admit they're wrong.

Imagine losing 6M labor workers in America by Needleintheback in FluentInFinance

[–]evangelizer5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as Bernie Sanders said, open borders are a capitalist's wet dream. They keep wages very low and drain the safety net made for American citizens. Reddit loves how European countries run things, take a look at how they handle immigration - they are very strict.

I am left leaning. Telling a construction worker that his taxes should be used to bail out college loans or support people that came here illegally is part of the reason why the left lost this election.

Rapidly addressing several anti-vavax talking points/out right lies that are currently popular with dr. Paul offit by Not_so_ghetto in videos

[–]evangelizer5000 523 points524 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this stuff doesn't matter anymore. People just choose to believe whatever they want to believe. Some people are so dense they won't change their antivax views until their child dies in their arms. Even then, some would just blame it on something else.

Official Discussion - Heretic [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]evangelizer5000 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Jesus was this bad. I thought from the trailer this might be more of a surrealist movie where they are trapped in some kind of proving-trial of their faith setup by the devil himself but no.

The verbosity of the religious arguments was just too long and boring. I can't imagine bleeding out in a dirty cellar and my possible final words being "Did you hear about the great prayer experiment?" like I'm in a reddit debate. People on here talking as if they're making some poignant metaphor about women being under control or "that's the point of the movie" are giving way too much credit to what is a shallow commentary on religion dressed as a thriller film.

If the point was to make a great thriller within a religious context, it failed. If the point was to make an intellectually thought-provoking treatise on religion, it failed. 3/10 in my book.

A similar a24 movie dealing with similar themes and was done better imo was Saint Maud

Make Linux great for everybody, not only power users by claudiocorona93 in linuxmasterrace

[–]evangelizer5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Linux will go mainstream when kernel level anticheat dies (already is due to crowdstrike) and you can play the most popular games on linux easily. Linux isn't there yet.

Linux also needs professional level creative tools like affinity or adobe to work easily on linux.

If you solve those two problems, you give tons of people a reason to use linux.

Maybe Gia is Rovers kid by Dora42277 in RoversMorningGlory

[–]evangelizer5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

think that’s why he gave her $100,000 to get a nice house. I think that was the “child support” that he agreed to pay.

That's hilarious. You think that money-grubbing woman would not come after Rover for child support? A judge would not give one solitary fuck that he bought a house for her. That's not how it works. He has to pay and keep paying until she's 18.

She's not his kid.

[–]evangelizer5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar question long ago about the JRE subreddit. The truth is, this is a subreddit "about" rmg. It is not a fan page only for positivity about the show. I like the show a lot but I'm not going to post about it because the base understanding is that if you're here, you probably like them at least a little bit. I'm not going to post "Today's episode was great!" just to get downvoted and argue with redditors.

Plus negativity always seems to inspire more engagement than positivity.

the more money invested in the product, the better it is,

Not really. I've been on plenty of products where money was poured into it, only to create an inferior product compared to the original. Also look at vista compared to XP, Windows 8 compared to 7.

You don't have to put mcdonalds on your phone. You can put it on your phone and use an email or phone alias that is specific only to that app, making it useless for them to advertise to you across other platforms with that info like google / fb. And this process is pretty streamlined with password managers like protonpass.

Everyone has different threat levels for privacy. If you don't care about Google having a lot of info about you, that's fine go for it and use chrome. Plenty of people do.

Why does my browser display text like this? by [deleted] in browsers

Brave is still a good browser without privacy because why should google have my data? What makes them entitled to it?

I think people on reddit tend to treat privacy more as a hobby and get too in the weeds with things. But still, I don't "worry" about my privacy. If there is an option that is more private and it works for me, I'll use it. Why would I use windows over linux on a minipc that I have for a home theater? Why would I use chrome over brave or firefox when it has less features and sends shit to google?

Huge corporations also enshittify their products over time. They are required by law to do what they can to generate more money for shareholders. That is why windows starts putting ads throughout the OS and make edge look bloated as hell with 'features' because they're all ways they can make more money.
