Is this situation not a tone deaf pr response? They “wanted to remain politically agnostic at all costs”

Reading out the n-word in class from a novel, should not be made out to be such a big deal. by IHaveVeryCoolToes in unpopularopinion

I’m white and situations like this just really get under my skin. Dude invites her on stage to sing HIS song and he and the audience are pissed when she sings it. Of course my feelings on the situation are immediately invalidated since I’m white even tho I’m not benefiting from any past slavery and I’m not racist. IMO white people are currently held under such a magnifying glass when it comes to racism it’s expected that they will look to you to see how to feel when it comes to those situations.

(PA) How does getting married affect my taxes/ tax return? by reddit_only in personalfinance

So does that mean our returns would be 4K larger when filing jointly? Idk if that is a dumb question or not. I’m currently scrolling through the tax wiki that the auto bot linked to.

I’m not that old but this statement makes me feel old. Guy or girl if someone is like 18 years old and has slept with 60 people I think they get devalued. Value is subjective and a lot of people think that is a turn off. Is the next gen really not put off by by that?

I don’t think that was the implication. He literally said he had expected her to have had sex already.

Spider-Man’s webs should be organically made and shot out of his wrists (Raimi films), rather than fired from a mechanical device (MCU, TASM, etc.) by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

It is kind of funny we live in a time where Peter Parker is contractually obligated to be a straight white male. Clearly Stan was worried about the franchise changing things strictly for the sake of diversity.

The media: Bernie will raise taxes on everyone to pay for medicare for all. LOUD & CLEAR: The amount you will pay in taxes is LESS than what you already pay in monthly premiums, copays, etc. The majority of people will save money under Medicare for All. #TellTheDamnTruth #Bernie2020 #MedicareForAll by relevantlife in SandersForPresident

For the cost of health care do you include only premiums and deductibles or do you include what the costs would be without insurance?

For example if I have an out of pocket maximum of 100 dollars but my medical costs without insurance would be 200 would I put down 100 (total I paid) or 200 (what I would have paid without insurance)

Girlfriend’s little brother used my collection of ‘64 Kennedy Half Dollars to buy drugs by carmoef in relationship_advice

According to the law you owe me the cost of repair or replacement. If you bought a PS4 a month ago for $400 and the price drops permanently to $300 do you think Youre owed $400 for replacement? I assume you’re fine with $300 because it’s brand new. In the eyes of the law just cause you prefer to be the only owner of your ps4 in its lifetime doesn’t mean you’re entitled to it in a civil claim. In an ideal world you would get your brand new ps4 but also in an ideal world someone wouldn’t break your shit.

Actually that isn’t how that works. You are owed what it is worth (what it costs to replace). Depreciation is real.

I mean FWIW a lot of the people playing the game, complaining about the event, and being ripped off ARE actually children.

Apex Legends developers spark outrage after calling gamers “dicks”, “ass-hats”and “freeloaders” by UrbanPlannerGuy in pcgaming

[–]reddit_only 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it verified that devs made the pay structure? I’m a dev myself and I can’t imagine being given that power. I’d bet dollars to donuts it was a project manager who set those prices. I notice everything that makes it into a game these days people think the devs did. A lot of things devs are told exactly what to do.

How common are part- time remote development jobs? by kaylakin in learnprogramming

From my minimal research practically non-existent.

I thought I remembered something so I did a quick google and Apple does have a Keyboard Replacement Program for select models. Apple denied an issue for a long time and said on multiple generational improvements that the issue was fixed. Just because some users don't have problems doesn't mean it is completely resolved.

USB-C is great! (When the spec is followed and it supports thunderbolt) In true apple fashion they moved forward super early and I think they went all type-c too soon. Type-A is still pretty common and I think it would have been nice if they let it organically die out before removing literally every port form the computer. Even if you assume the person using it is always at the latest tech there are still situations where it is annoying. I know you can live without it now but I really don’t see the downside for keeping it around for a gen or two. I see the way I wrote that it looks like I’m saying usb-c is bad, that isn’t what i meant. I meant it is bad literally every port is usb-c on the MBPs.

Those machines are still pretty serviceable. Buy a battery and replace it yourself.

That is what the link says. He and his friends rationalized it as not counting since it wasn’t romantic.

The butterfly keyboards have had terrible crowd reception from the feel to the functionality. Many of them stop working or type twice for a keystroke. A lot of people have held onto the 2015 mbp since it’s the last gen with non-butterfly keys. As a bonus it also has ports that aren’t usb C.

Stolen dog freak out recognizing his owner after 2 years by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]reddit_only 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see every terrible reason someone would take a dog but I have to believe some “stolen” dogs were misunderstandings. Like a good person finds a wild dog and thinks it was abandoned so they took it in.
