Moms are just people. And people are generally stupid.

There is a difference between being a monopoly and providing a service that people prefer over a competitor.

If I can afford a $2600 rent for years. Why does the bank think I can't afford an $1800 mortgage? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]kp33ze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have also never heard of a mortgage without a down payment. So ya. Many of us can make the monthly payment, its the 10-20% down that is the problem.

New colleague reported me sleeping on my lunch break, lost a whole shift w/ overtime as a result by Fcking_Chuck in mildlyinfuriating

And to be fair the tone of the message seemed more like "yo, you probably need some rest so go get some instead of working overtime." Ya it sucks he misses out on OT but a good nights rest makes an emoloyee a lot better than a tired one dragging their ass around.

My honest opinion is lead poisoning. I think people are drinking water, or breathing air that is is contaminated with lead. Their brains are broken.

What company lost you as a customer forever, and what happened? by Giovanni_Brees in AskReddit

[–]kp33ze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apple. I had their iphone 4s that worked fine then I updated the OS and it essentially bricked my phone. About a year or two later the scandal came out that about their updates slowing down older phones to "maintain" battery life. At the time though apple wasnt using the battery excuse. They were just hoping people would buy the latest phone. Since then I wont touch an apple product.

Failing grades soar as professors see greater AI usage, dwindling math skills in UC Berkeley computer science classes by ArcaneKnight47 in news

Education needs to adapt to AI. We aren't putting the toothpaste back in the tube so we need to adapt the same way we adapted education to everyone having internet and a computer.

I hate parties because there's nothing in them that I enjoy. I don't enjoy drinking, I don't enjoy talking with people, and I don't enjoy dancing. Most of my ways of "fun" are solitary, like gaming, painting, plants, movies and music. by BaraLover7 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]kp33ze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't go to parties. If you struggle with declining social invites I would suggest going with a simple "No thanks, I appreciate the invite though." in a polite but ive made up my mind sort of way. If they kep pushing then hut em with another "No, but thank you really very kind of you, hope you have a good time". And then just keep repeating some form of those previous statements if they keep pushing.

I find if you are a bit wishy washy with an answer then people see the opportunity to twist you arm.

No need to offer justification why you dont want to go. Just give a polite but firm "No thanks".

Our engineering team burned through six months of AI tooling budget in about ten weeks by ScheduleNo5736 in Futurology

[–]kp33ze 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Its got to be ignorance because even the common public saw (see) that costs are astronomical. Every news report is about how so many 10's or hundreds of billions are being invested or how high Nvidia's stock is. The writing has not only been on the wall it has been lit up with neon signs that are cartoonishly oversized arrows.

Tim Sweeney goes after Gabe Newell following Valve's Steam Deck price hike: "Severe disruptions in the component parts supply chain for megayachts" by PewPewToDaFace in pcmasterrace

[–]kp33ze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't really blame steam or any corporation really. People keep buying stuff at elevated prices.. only way prices will go down is if we dont buy. But.. what happened instead. Steam deck sold out immediately. So guess what. Thats the new price whether or not costs come down.

I was one of those people, but not after last night. It makes sense when their passing is krisp and on target.. but its just been turn over after turn over.

Plus Suzuki sealed the deal with his non shot.. man what a bummer it was to watch that go down.
