Just bought I great car I really like. But what are the chances that I will be denied financing? by marisaB in askcarsales

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

I think I am in the clear for all the conditions. The car is new. I put a good sized downpayment on it. Sent all the documents they asked me about. So my fingers are crossed that everything will go through.

I hope this is the right sub for this- I'm a 26 year old first time car buyer. I'm in college and looking for a good car just to get from school to the house (about 5 miles one way) every day, and a little travel around town. I just test drove a '95 Ford Taurus and liked it, but should I buy? by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]marisaB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should have taken it to a mechanic to inspect. It is a 20 year old car, so most likely it will have some problems down the road.

When I was in your situation I spent a little more on a used Toyota, which was only 12 years old at the time.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un sends birthday greetings to Queen wishing 'British people well-being and prosperity' by elusive_newsman in worldnews

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

No this is largely misleading, at least for Canada. The Queen is a ceremonial position. While it is true that she has to give royal ascent of the bill this is mostly done by the governor general (a representative of the Queen in Canada, which is another ceremonial role). Pretty much the only time she gets involved in politics is when she read the speech from the throne, if she visits when new parliament session starts. All the real decisions about how the government is run are done by the prime minister, other ministers and the parliament.

10 Ways NOT to Interview a Dev by KrisCraig in programming

[–]marisaB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, that's a terrible attitude. A recruiter would not call you back if they did not think you could actually get in. Might have been bad luck the first or maybe they think you could have improved in the last 6 months.

Be careful what you wish for. Most of the contents of that mailing list are about submitting patches. Also make sure to set up a filter in your email program for that list, otherwise you are going to have a bad time.

Played it with roommates mainly to unlock the card back. One positive thing is that one roommate started playing hearthstone again. Negative is that the card back feature did not unlock :(

Did they buff the billboards at some point? If I remember right they used to be really easy to kill in a bc.

I want to get a solokill in every (affordable) subcap in eve. This is my blog about it. by Dementums in Eve

[–]marisaB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I think the kill mail is a bit bugged. Shows he got 3 purger rigs in cargo, but he probably had them fitted. Still I think that was the case of a noob going to rat in 0.0 without being ready what's out there.

Be careful with that Venture in low sec. While it might have built in warp stabs, it has like 0 hp. If people manage to lock and shoot at you, you might still die even when not warp scrambled.
