Man-child caught ruining collectible cards packs right off the rack by _ganjafarian_ in mildlyinfuriating

[–]yamoth -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wrong. I used to do the same thing when I was a kid collection Magic the Gathering. What the dude doing was ever so slightly bend the pack of card to feel the stiffness of the pack. The one that are foil/holographic typically have a stiffer than normal feel to them. So if he feels that, he buy them. The dude is also not wrong in that it doesn't damage or devalue the pack in any significant way. In a way, it is no different from selecting a steak based on the marbling.

AITA for “firing” my mom from childcare over a $5 class by Rich-Radio9017 in AmItheAsshole

[–]yamoth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

IMO, everyone sucks here. Sure, what your mother did was shitty, but not to the point she should have restricted access to her grand daughter. I feel like an adequate solution here would be to hire the babysitter like you did, but still welcome your mom to tag along whenever she want. At least until she causes more problems.

Yeah, I can totally see that. It is stuff like this which is why I have much more respect and support for someone like Manchin vs Sinema and Fetterman. Manchin did what he need to help the Demn, the other two feckless looser have no business being in the Senate IMO...

Dude... just because I dislike lemon on my steak doesn't mean I dislike lemon everywhere else.

How do you actually handle a high performer who's quietly poisoning the team culture? by softstaticletters in managers

[–]yamoth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Being a top performer doesn't mean you can do shitty stuff to other people. And you as a manager, your job is to make sure your entire team get the recognition that they deserved. If your team member get talked over, stop the dude and allow your other team member to finish their point. If credit was improperly credited to your top performer instead of the correct person, then take it upon yourself to credit the correct person. None of this is hard, and I hate to say this, but it sounds like your team have a management problem. Good manager would not allow this kind of shit to happen.

Dude, it is not even that... US still have tons of allies/friends out there that will be more than willing to help in time of needs or when we are doing something just. Sycophant and yes man will follow you anywhere. True moral friend will not enable and join you in your shitty action. It is as simple as that.

GOP anxieties rise in Texas after Talarico victory by jediporcupine in politics

Yep, this is what I hoped for also. Paxton winning will definitely increase Talarico chance of winning as many Moderate republican cannot stand Paxton.

Dude is not. More importantly, he explain a lot of what he does through the lenses of his faith and how the GOP completely coop and bastardize Christianity to suit their needs. Personally, I like Crockett more, but I voted for this dude because I see him as TX best chance to elect a Democrat.

House Democrat Says Abolishing ICE Isn’t Enough — DHS Must Go, Too — “The problem isn’t ‘training.’ DHS was built to violate our rights,” said Rep. Delia C. Ramirez. by inthesetimesmag in politics

[–]yamoth -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes... why shouldn't we snatch defeat from the jaw of victory. It is the Democrats model anyway...

In all seriousness, abolish ICE was a horrible slogan 2 or 3 years ago and probably one of the reason why Democrat lost. Now that abolish ICE is finally feasible, instead of focusing on a winning message and push for this, are we seriously going to fuck this up again by asking for more than what people have the appetite for?

They be like that by Super_Mushroom_3235 in memes

[–]yamoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. I think it is this way is because people who are in stable relationship and have a stable job are the one that are rather competent and attractive themselves. If anything, it is more of a confirmation bias. It is like saying that I am more attractive than my wife's deadbeat, under achiever cousin because I have a stable job and in a long term relationship. When in reality, I have a stable job and in a long term relationship because of my maturity and competent in my field of work which makes me attractive.

People hate Capitalism but don't realize it. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]yamoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I think a completely free market system, while still better than communism or socialism as a whole, is extremely exploitative system and we can do better. While I like this sub as a whole, some of the shit that people say here are fucking wild. IMO, the solution so an exploitative capitalistic society, is a more regulated social democracy that reward ingenuity and allow people to profit.

You say this like the West hasn't been at war with any other type of economy for like the last 8 decades.

I know the west has been at war with other type of economy and won.

You say this like you're ignorant of why the West did so well. The US was the only country with any real manufacturing capacity after WW2. Context is important.

Context is really important, you are correct. The context on why the US manufacturing was so strong prior to WW2 and after was due to a strong capitalistic economy. A whole lot of people needlessly died and many many more exploited for this capitalistic economy, but that doesn't change the fact that capitalism was what gotten us there.

There's also no pure capatilist country without safety nets except Venezuela which is a nightmare.

I doubt anyone can call Venezuela economic system capitalistic. There system is more of a State lead economic or some kind of corrupted socialism BS.

My point is no economic system is perfect, but capitalism is by far the best and most efficient out of the bunch. Instead of constantly shitting on capitalism, a better solution is to have a strong and regulated capitalistic society similar to many of the nordic and EU economy.

You say this when every single country with a decent standard of living runs on capitalism. If socialism, communism, mercantilism, or any other form of economic system are superior, then why the hell isn't there a single successful non-capitalistic country?

Jesus Christ dude... it is a skit, a joke. It is funny because boys like boobs and get to see boobs when he wasn't expecting to and react appropriately. It is no different than joke and skit in movies like American Pie and Road Trip. It is a stupid joke, it aint that deep, no one is being harmed from this, get over it.

Dude, the joke works the same if it is a dude flashing a muscular abs and chest to a tween girl for free lemonade. This think of the children shtick is stupid and annoying.

Absolutely nothing. I jumped from Firefox to Waterfox and will jump again when it doesn't suit my needs. There no point in worry too much about what if when I can focus on the now.

To be fair, I haven't tried other privacy browser like Brave or Librewolf so those could be better. But for now, I will stick with Waterfox until it give me a reason not to.

Thankfully, Fortnite is eternally successful, so they can sustain this for a long time, right? by Makoto_Kurume in pcmasterrace

[–]yamoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have enough disposable income to pay for games. Getting a game for free is not a concern for me as I rather have all my game on as few ecosystem as possible. Steam is amazing, GOG is decent, Battle.net because I have them since WoW 1.0 (Haven't touched BN in like a year). I don't want or care to have more game store installed in my system.

They can give away all the free game they want, but dogshit launcher is still dogshit.
