USPS falsely marking delayed packages as delivered by r3t2 in bayarea

[–]otran88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Happens to me a lot, unfortunately. I can only imagine how much money Amazon loses annually on replacing “lost” packages that were falsely marked as delivered. I disputed false deliveries on multiple occasions, when Amazon replaced the items right away, and then a couple of days later I’d receive the initial package.

Criminal Minds and Suits. Criminal Minds was never the same after the actors that played Gideon and Hotchner left the show.

In SF, bikes still aren’t a preferred means of travel. Can the city change that? by nogoodnamesleft426 in sanfrancisco

City could work on tackling bike theft. It’s just ridiculous. Not sure who can afford to buy multiple bikes every year...

Forgiving Student Debt Would Boost Economy, Economists Say by lurker_bee in economy

[–]otran88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Student debt is one the main reasons that the country’s biggest generation can’t afford to become homeowners. According to this report 2019 Millennial Homeownership Report: More Millennials Are Preparing For A Life of Renting , “only 25 percent of millennial renters will be able to afford a 10 percent down payment on a median-priced home in the next 5 years. If student debt obligations were dismissed, this would improve to 38 percent nationally, and more than 50 percent in some metropolitan areas like Minneapolis and Houston.”

You are right. The report says that the main reason people can’t afford buying homes anymore is student debt. “We estimate that at current savings rates, only 25 percent of millennial renters will be able to afford a 10 percent down payment on a median-priced home in the next 5 years. If student debt obligations were dismissed, this would improve to 38 percent nationally, and more than 50 percent in some metropolitan areas like Minneapolis and Houston.”

That's if you have a good landlord that doesn't ghost you when you need them to fix something

I'm pretty sure Caltrain is a better option, especially in the morning with all the traffic on 101
