  • Why don't Americans plant trees and bushes of stuff that they can eat in their houses instead of having useless grass?

    Jump

  • 6? What are you trying to make an orchard? That's pretty aggressive. How big is your front yard? How long were you gone for to make the city take action? You wouldn't get one notice, then a day later, they tear up your yard. You had to have been gone for a long time.

    I have a fairly large front yard, and if I planted that many trees, yeah I'd get sited.

    It doesn't matter if you had fruit trees or not. That's not a "you can't plant trees in your front yard", thats, "this many trees in a relatively small area can cause safety issues"

  • This is the answer right here.

    Everyone is saying "it's a sign of wealth" or "my HOA won't let me". Which yeah ok is more or less true.

    Though, the real reason is it takes time, money, and a lot of effort. Which most people don't have.

  • "AI curated wine"

    Jump

  • I mean I brew beer, and I've used AI to help with a few recipes because having to search through brewgr and the mirad of different recipes is time consuming, when ultimately to brew a beer has the same overarching ingredients and process.

    Though I wouldn't solely rely on it and to advertise that using AI just feels like a gimmick.

    Never experienced your other issue though.

    Shit my rent is 2400 and that's considered a steal for the place I live.

  • Eh I played when the OG Mortal Kombat came out all the time at the local pizza place when I was like 9, and I turned out fine. I've only murdered a handful of people so far. It's not like I became a cop or anything like that.

  • I'm both happy and scared!

    Jump

  • Probably because it is, they don't like you, or they don't want the job.

    I'm not trying to be mean, but contractors will price it outrageously or say "this will be a big job" because they don't want the job, so you say no.

  • I'm both happy and scared!

  • Ehhh some of this is great advice about sales tactics, but you should definitely get a contractor to come out and look over the place again.

    Reason being is if there is something that was missed in your initial inspection that another contractor found, you can go back to the realtor and demand them to be fixed. Especially for new builds.

    However you only have a small window for this, because if you wait too long the realtor and or contractors can say it was you and it's not their responsibility.

    Also you should always get multiple bids from several contractors. If someone is going to do the job at a really low price, that means that contractor will cut corners, and do more harm than good. If someone is giving you an astronomical price that is completely unreasonable that means the contractor doesn't want the job.

    There is also this other "tactic" that construction companies know very well. That is if the company is trying to give you a deal, you as a customer are going to nitpick every little thing. Flip side, if they mark it up the customer will always believe it's the best job that was ever done.

    Source: my step father owned a large legit construction company, that I worked for, and my bio father owned a small shady construction company, that I also worked for.

  • The Witcher 4 has entered "full-scale production", CD Projekt confirms

    Jump

  • It's not that complicated imo, and I'm not attempting to diminish your experience.

    Though, if you played day one, the hate that was given was completely warranted. Especially if you played on old gen consoles, when they said it was compatible.

    This is coming from someone that genuinely liked the game, bugs and all.

    Not because I'm cynical, or had grand expectations. It was literally because I never played a game that was so buggy in my life, and I've been playing since NES.

    I paid for a finished product that wasn't finished. I was lied to.

    I can list the bugs and crashes I experienced, but it's well documented.

    It wasn't like if No Man's Sky was over promised and it was basically empty. It was if NMS was released it being empty, and crashed every 2 seconds.

  • The Witcher 4 has entered "full-scale production", CD Projekt confirms

    Jump

  • Oh 100% I'm replaying it rn. It's a much different game after release.

    I got it on Xbox One day one because I bought into the marketing. I'm a sucker for distopian Sci-fi.

    I wasn't disappointed with the story, or the gameplay. I was just disappointed with something that felt unfinished. I felt like I was testing the game.

    Since then I've bought and played EA games that have felt more flushed out.

    Because of Cyberpunk I will never buy a game day one.

  • After getting Cyberpunk on release, no way will I get this until after all the patches they put down and say they are no longer supporting the game.

  • Disposable vapes to be banned in England and Wales from June

    Jump

  • I use a disposable vape now and I was adamant about not using one because of the wastefulness, until they banned flavored vape liquid in my state.

    It started to get really hard to buy coils for my vape, because it became unprofitable for these companies to operate here, and then even harder to find the liquid I enjoy.

    Non-disposable ones tend to be bulky too. Not to mention the maintenance is a huge pain in the ass. The non-disposable vapes tend to leak. Doesn't matter which one you use. If you don't prime the coil correctly they burn out in a few puffs, and you just wasted 5+ bucks on the coil you've been searching for. Coils only tend to last a few days to a week as well. So you're always on this search to find coils. Also reusable ones only last for a few months to maybe a year anyway (if you're lucky), then you have to spend 100+ on a new one.

    Sure you could get the little pod ones but now you're being wasteful because you can't reuse those either, and break twice as fast.

    Now I can buy 2 disposables that last a month, don't leak, don't take a lot of real estate in my pocket, are significantly cheaper, is easier to find, and the flavor is always consistent.

    I would've been fine with my reusable one until they banned the products that allowed me to use it.

    So yeah prohibition doesn't work. You ban this people will just go back to smoking. Which is just as wasteful and way more toxic.

  • Unpopular opinion, but I always find this kind of thing funny. US is damned if you do, damned if you don't.

    We get involved, we're imperialist swine that only care about our interests.

    We don't, and are scrutinized for letting bad things happen.
