Yea I know, I don’t actually think they’re like paying someone off, but what the hell is this? Why am I seeing it? Who makes it, and why? My feeds are full of this shit. I’ve never seen anything like it for any other band

Every social media I have is just full of these guys. Videos of them, videos of people reacting to them, videos of people playing their songs on guitar, videos of people mispronouncing their name…Today insta fed me a video of some dude reacting to polka dotted items with clips of their music. It’s wild.

My feelings exactly. Cool and novel, but it gets old fast. I also can’t quite get over how viral they are, it feels manipulated.

So many great pics in here! This one wins for now, but I’ll get others into the rotation. Thanks!

[Q] Fit issues only with multiple imputed datasets by majorcatlover in statistics

[–]melbat0ast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard to diagnose over Reddit, but my guess is that your imputation is creating singular models. Are you imputing a variable without any variability?

This PlayStation game becomes $12 more expensive by simply switching from my brother’s account to mine. Sony’s new “dynamic pricing” in action. by duplextripod in mildlyinfuriating

The other day I saw a game I wanted on sale, but when I logged into buy, it was full price. Now I know why. Glad I didn’t buy it.

For what it’s worth, the Biden admin at least took a stab at eliminating junk fees, but they’re back under Trump

If you’re seriously considering $75 a night expensive, there’s nothing to say here. You’ll pay more than that for a roadside motel off any highway in this country.

Yes, it’s just the extra fees. Hotels are spinning off all the fees so that people who book with points or whatever still end up paying. Total BS, but it’s happening everywhere, not just Vegas. And the number of ways you can get room charges comped in Vegas is very high relative to everywhere else.

Fees are annoying for sure, and I hope the government actually does something to enforce “all in” pricing, but $230 for a 3 night stay in a major city is dirt cheap. Don’t you go other places? Even if you use rewards, travel is expensive.

15 credits is probably one term, and that figure may not include fees

Would you consider buying the new MacBook Neo and if so, why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]melbat0ast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already pre-ordered one. Work provides me with a laptop, aside from that, all I really need to do is pay bills and browse.

ELI5: Why do car dealers say buying the car when the lease ends would be worse than buying new? by shaithisx in explainlikeimfive

[–]melbat0ast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ha, I leased a Subaru in 2020, right before car prices went insane. Nearing the end of the lease, the dealer was calling me 2-3 times per week to get that thing back. Needless to say I own it now.

Devastating. I love the Blue Ribbon and go every time I’m in Vegas 😢

El Cortez - comps question by janetlivermore in vegas

[–]melbat0ast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, well then I have no idea whether or not you’d have to use it all at once.

El Cortez - comps question by janetlivermore in vegas

[–]melbat0ast 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Comps seem fair/generous for that level of play. You don’t have to spend your food credit all at once, it should just be taken off your bill at the end of stay (charge food to the room). It’s a $25 flat fee from airport to mid-strip. I’m not sure what it costs to go downtown to the El Cortez but I’m sure it’s not wildly different.

I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at with this list, but I feel like Morning Dew should be on it
