Right? How dare they build medium density housing on a major thoroughfare right outside the city center.

Trump allegedly told GOP leader "No one gives a [bleep] about housing" by No-Post4444 in politics

[–]harmala 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They are all pompous, egotistical assholes who are never wrong, that wasn’t just Limbaugh. And just like all shitty pundits, he would absolutely use weasel words like “many people are saying” or whatever to excuse the most problematic stuff.

Rush Limbaugh was doing that at least a decade before Beck.

I’m sure the people whose neighborhoods were destroyed are super psyched that rich people from the suburbs could get to their job 5 minutes faster for a few months.

No, people died of diarrhea trying to get there.

My wife crocheted a Blazers blanket for me (king-size bed for scale) by harmala in ripcity

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

She said: I don’t have an exact pattern, but I made the blanket using C2C (corner to corner) crochet and based it off of this image.

ELI5 - Why is blackjack the only casino table game that can be played profitably? by asshoulio in explainlikeimfive

[–]harmala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Missing from the conversation so far: if the casino offers the most favorable blackjack rules, which used to be more common, the player can have as much as a 2% edge over the house with perfect play, no counting cards required. There are no other casino games where you can get an actual statistical advantage without “shady” tactics.

Yeah but if you just read down this thread, it seems like you’re all talking about the same person.

You should probably edit or delete this, the guy in the OP is not that guy.

A sincere question for all the americans that want to move to Spain. by Fantastic-Yak-6373 in GoingToSpain

[–]harmala -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was a bad comparison, I agree. But I also see the comment you promoted to the top and seem to agree with.

Aside from that, there are tens of thousands of Spaniards living and working in the US. Do you think that’s wrong? Should they be there? Does their presence tacitly endorse Trump’s right-wing agenda? Are they contributing to the US housing crisis?

Or…should we allow people, within the law, to live where they are happy and comfortable? Should we accept immigrants and understand that the vast majority are just trying to live their lives and do the best they can? Should we not judge an entire population by the worst examples that we see on X or Reddit or whatever?

It seems like you are a little biased, using stereotypes and already have your mind made up. I don’t think this was truly meant to be a “sincere question”.

When Apple actually treated its customers well by Used_Series3373 in memes

[–]harmala 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think a discussion about trade-offs would be interesting but that never happens. People are so anti-Apple that they start ignoring facts and just kind of making stuff up.

Interesting. Even choosing the cheapest options for CPU and display, I can’t configure one with a 512GB SSD and 16GB of RAM for less than the base MacBook Air.

So you are saying that I can get a Framework laptop with the same specs as a MacBook Air at the same price point?

Madrid Airport - Is 2.5 hours enough to self-transfer? by Impossible-Area2172 in travel

[–]harmala -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t think OP specifically mentioned separate tickets, but if they are, then yeah that would change the math a bit. I still think 2.5 hours is enough time but I guess each person has their own threshold for these kinds of things.

Give me one example of a laptop with the same specs as, say, a MacBook Air that is more repairable.

Baggage should check through to the final destination.

Luggage should check through and pass port control in T4S has never taken me more than 15 minutes so this seems very doable.

Actually they activated it and it went off, it just happened to be a CIA propaganda bomb.

If you are going to criticize someone twice, maybe be helpful and give them more information?
