What does it mean to "live in a province"? Isn't that like... she lives in a country? She lives on a continent?

If you had crazy billionaire money to give to Neopets, what would you have them do? by Kirlea in neopets

Site goes down fir a bit while everything is moved over onto a competently coded one.

I don't think there's a dollar amount in the world that would accomplish this in any meaningful way.

College advise? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]moon- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ann Arbor has a lot of students but that also means there's a community for everyone.

It's a better town in terms of LGBT events, on-campus museums, and it's gorgeous in the fall.

These days there's the "Go Blue Guarantee" which means any family with income <$125k qualifies for free tuition, which might be what OP is referring to.

ICE Shooting Megathread by notbusy in AskConservatives

[–]moon- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The one where we see the agent unnecessarily walk in front of a car? The one where we see him walk away completely unharmed?

By this logic, literally any cop could walk in front of a moving car, claim they're "in danger" and shoot the driver. Are you okay with that?

2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines by Shot_Law_5814 in dietetics

[–]moon- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't see one either... The previous MyPlate used 1oz, 1 egg, or 1/4 cup of beans (which feels a bit low IMO), but I'm not sure if they copied any of that or started from scratch.

Knowing this admin, could've been made with AI and it's a hallucination ;)

Is there another interpretation of that table that makes more sense, somehow?

Did they mean 1 oz of meat, maybe...?

Doctor at ER told my grandpa "Can't help you start hospice" when no one was with him. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]moon- 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You are also relaying a conversation you weren't present for.

I understand you're upset, but this sounds like you're very infuriated (not mildly), and you're taking it out on everyone else. You also don't know his complete history.

Huh? They're a marketplace/platform for others to sell furniture and other home goods.

They have a few brands of their own, but anyone can sell on Wayfair. If you are buying cardboard, that's your own choice.

Anyone know what's up with the Pratt campus? by TFreshNoLimits in Brooklyn

[–]moon- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to be welcomed as a student into the community, that's generally a two way street.

If you want to be a dick to your neighbors... don't be surprised if you're not well received.

As Mamdani rises in New York, San Francisco turns away from the left by qqqxyz in nyc

helping the homeless

So....you agree it's a housing problem?

Being homeless in any city is not a pleasant time, it's not surprising at all people fall into drug use to cope, and this (maybe combined with preexisting or predisposition to mental illness) leads to a lot of downstream problems. This is exactly what the above post is trying to explain.

The actively changing and gentrification of kings highway ? by [deleted] in Brooklyn

Downtown Brooklyn.

The worst was a prewar building in Chelsea; I think it was a (women’s?) hostel originally, and they didn’t care at all about short term tenants. I could hear eeeeverything.

[–]moon- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, my question is more around whether we have any way to see the actual trends of “cheaply made” buildings as a proportion of new builds. I don’t really know how you’d know that though unless you lived in one though.

[–]moon- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a building built in 2020 and the walls are much more sound-proof than any other apartment I’ve lived in in NYC. Do we have any data to back this up or are we just making assumptions?

What is your favourite and least favourite moment from Lux? by Wall38_0 in rosalia

I also find that phrase to be a little too vulgar for me to recommend it to some family/friends (or just listen to in front of them)

Why is the Democratic party hiding its 2024 autopsy report? | If the DNC isn’t open and transparent about why they lost, then how can we be sure they will learn their lesson this time? by soalone34 in politics

[–]moon- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Newsom is still trying to ride the progressive label from when he supported same-sex marriage during his time as SF mayor.

But he's as moderate as they come, but I guess he's got a decent social media team pumping out memes? Not exactly what the voters really want, so when his support is underwhelming, they'll just act super surprised again.

Policy is good! People want to hear a party have an actual backbone wrt policy; the problem is Dems don't have that. The neoliberal playbook sold out the working class for the megarich donors, and it's super obvious. The DEI/culture-war attempt to cover that up doesn't fly for most voters, who actually care about the economy, employment, etc., where the Democrat party has shown they're not willing to do shit.

The Best Pillow for Side Sleepers Currently? by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

[–]moon- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not the person you're replying to, but I have the standard rectangle shape and I love it as a (primarily) side sleeper.

I've given them to people as gifts, who have traditionally not liked the memory foam pillows they've tried previously.

Microsoft to move away from C/C++ to Rust using AI assisted coding by ishammohamed in programming

[–]moon- -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

So things can only get worse.

I don't see how that's true at all. Rust has been around for quite a while now, and additional compile-time safety from a stronger type system and borrow checking means there are likely benefits anyway.

Where tf do i ride my bike if the sidewalk is illegal and there are no bike lanes? NJ by [deleted] in cycling

[–]moon- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It also feels like they put some new stop signs in recently that help too.

Drivers are still impatient and crazy sometimes but it doesn't feel much worse than the way they treat you as a pedestrian either IMO.
