  • My landlord partnered with a financing company - I can pay $15/month for the luxury of making weekly payments on my rent

    Jump

  • Yeah my apartment landlord posted papers on the building doors about these guys. I looked into it myself, signed up but made no commitment to the system. I've read a few reviews from people who tried it, all were nightmares for them. I had actually thought this business was where you can pay some of the rent now and payback later, preferably on a payday.

    However, the logic doesn't add up since landlords typically want everything by the first day of the month when its due. So, Flex didn't align with my thoughts which honestly would've alleviated some pressure financially, but they cram everything to be due by within the month. It is like, why the fuck bother?

    You need to get some skin in the game.

    Yep this guy has a bone to pick here. It all adds up.

  • Reddit’s Cofounder And CEO Steve Huffman Is Now A Billionaire

    Jump

  • Good on him for playing on the idiots there that have bothered registering onto that degraded platform, including myself.

    But everything else he can go fuck himself on.

  • WhatsApp appears to have ads now. Good thing I don't really use it anymore.

    Jump

  • Wait, who owns WhatsApp again?

    checks

    Oh.

  • Republicans dumbfounded by Trump’s calls for harsh retribution against Democratic lawmakers

    Jump

  • They're dumbfounded because he's the one doing it and not them.

    Republicans have had a long history of stone-walling Democrats and outright working against them in spite. Nothing new, people.

  • Is anyone else's friends getting really distant?

    Jump

  • If you haven't accepted it by now then it is unfortunately a part of life. I've tried upholding several friendships with established connections that stemmed from the days I lived in my old state for 29 total years of my life. I've been gone from there for over 3 and a half years now and I just felt like we have picked the directions we've picked and this is where we are all going.

    It's quite sad honestly, because I know as much as I wish to, I've no hope of even visiting my old state. The traveling would be taxing and I'd only have a small window of time to see anyone anyways. I just recently allowed my FB to be permanently deleted which contained my local friends and I did that as part of the acceptance that we're likely not to see eachother again. Because we all excelled when we're all together in person.

    I am under the belief that sometimes, friendships are meant to expire. When they stop doing anything for you and the progressing and building of relations grow to fade because we've held on to old memories that stopped being relevant. The hard truth is that at somepoint, people have to be let go. I have a harder time calling someone a friend when we go so long without doing anything with eachother or even communicating.

    Technically some people may see me as the bad friend but honestly, I have tried to hold on to friendships where I knew that it had expired and I wasted enormous amounts of time doing that.

  • Roblox’s CEO calls moderation problems ‘an opportunity’ and platform gambling a ‘brilliant idea’ in unhinged interview

    Jump

  • Roblox's problem is that it is lead by the wrong people.

  • What game is a guilty pleasure of yours?

  • I noticed a fair bit of anime adaptations borrow that mechanic, that being one of them.

    Berserk: Band of the Hawk is another.

  • So now that it's that time of year again in the US, what are some tips and tricks for dealing with that one relative who goes on about the same bullshit for hours and won't shut the fuck up?

    Jump

  • I am thankful I do not have such relative.

    And if I did, to the discard bin.

  • How did bittorrent fail to become essential technology?

    Jump

  • I mean it still has a purpose? Don't know where you're going with this, do you have some grudge against BitTorrent we don't know about?

  • Why are the you are the problem comments so common on Lemmy?

    Jump

  • In short - people being deliberate assholes and know they can pretty much get away with that.

    You don't usually need to think deeper on that.

  • How did Askfm fail and shutdown?

  • I wish Quora would shut down.

  • How about Chromebooks in general just die?

  • Valve Addresses Steam Machine Anti-Cheat Concerns, Says It's Working Towards Support

    Jump

  • Except people are going to still buy those games, still complain for something to be done and when the potential resolution is there, they'll go "I DON'T WANT IT!" and just cycle through.

    Fuck sakes, some people...

  • PetSmart won't let you leave a review if you have adblockers on

    Jump

  • And that applies to generally any big company.

    Like why bother asking for reviews if you're Wal-Mart or Target when the shit is still going to somehow sell and customers aren't usually the brightest when it comes to making purchasing decisions or evaluating what they have bought.

  • In wake of Windows 10 retirement, over 780,000 Windows users skip Win 11 for Linux, says Zorin OS developers — distro hits unprecedented 1 million downloads in five weeks

    Jump

  • Eh, that's fine but I'm good until 2032 with my Windows 10.

    Also, we aren't for sure certain how many of those people are uniquely downloaded from Windows and specifically the purpose or reason.

    Some could've downloaded Zorin for experimental purposes. Some could've downloaded it from a Windows VM. Some could've downloaded it from Windows when they're in a dual-boot system.

    Hate to burst that bubble, but you need to consider these things before big numbers are boasted. There's a lot of variables involved.

  • Why does it feel like there is currently less new games, songs, YouTube videos, valuable articles and creations in general?

    Jump

  • It only feels that way because one doesn't explore.

    On a creative standpoint, the well of originality is drying up quickly.

  • Do you think there will be a point where the world stops letting violent aggressors get what they want or is that ingrained into society?

    Jump

  • As long as moral constraint is prominent, there will always be an eternal struggle with peace and violence.

    Someone who wants to do good, will fear of doing what's necessary, even if it includes violence.

    And authority is another constraint, we can't just simply dispose of those who we absolutely know for certain, are irredeemable that resolves things through violence. Because justice, due process, yadda yadda
