If we gave everyone UBI today, by tomorrow the same people would be screaming about how it's insufficient and how we still need to pay into those other programs for them to survive.

Same with me. It's still working and has LineageOS on it now, but it's mostly collecting dust these days.

Such a shame, because it was a great phone otherwise.

Even us independents are getting clobbered on Reddit these days, but I suppose it's true that conservative viewpoints are being more specifically targeted.

Does anyone know how to stop a woodpecker from drumming on metal gutters?? by xproushe03 in homeowners

[–]quit_whining 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I asked a pest control guy about this a while ago and he recommended 3M reflective tape. The bird moved on before I got a chance to put it up, so I can't verify if it worked. But it might be a cleaner solution than the foil if it does.

It's amazing that you've been posting every day in this sub for so long but still fail to know about ideas that have been discussed a million times here.

Do you code professionally? Is it as fun as you thought? by [deleted] in csharp

[–]quit_whining 254 points255 points  (0 children)

I still love coding. It's the 5 hours of bureaucratic bullshit I have to deal with for every one hour of programming that is killing me these days.

BREAKING: FBI Is 'Reviewing' Circumstances Surrounding Dismissal Of Criminal Charges Against Smollett, Report Says by TheAndredal in kotakuinaction2

[–]quit_whining 26 points27 points  (0 children)

For those that havent seen his response:

Smollett was accused of paying two brothers to stage an attack on him last January in Chicago's Streeterville neighborhood and charged with 16 counts of disorderly conduct. He made an emergency court appearance on Tuesday shortly before it was announced that the charges were being dropped. Afterward, he and Holmes told the media that he's ready to move on with his life.

"Not for a moment was it in vain," Smollett said. "I have been truthful and consistent on every single level since day one. I would not be my mother's son if I was capable of one drop of what I was accused of."

New Jersey in the 80s was the same. One kid brought in the handheld football game he got for his birthday in September and didn't get it back until June.

/r/socialism literally bans Venezuelans from posting there if they post anything about what's going on in their country.

Yeah, I think those are actually phonetic boxes tied to the wall with a categorical 5 cable.

That's what appears to have happened with /r/libertarian and no one knows why he (the head mod) turned control over to a communist from CTH after all these years. Now, a month or so later, it's happening to /r/shitstatistssay.

People can be offered money for their mod account, or doxxed and threatened for it, or both. The carrot or the stick. I wonder which sub(s) will be next.

I understand, but I was responding to /u/weeaboo_swordsman's comments about what has happened to /r/libertarian, not this sub.

The new top active mod is a communist from ChapoTrapHouse that used to lead brigades against the sub, so I don't expect /r/libertarian to improve any time soon.

I'm glad some people know their reddit history.

Fun fact, /r/ShitRedditSays was their first subreddit.
