This shit happens in the parking garage I use too and it amazes me. I drive a small sedan and I refuse to park in those spots bc I’m terrified some idiot will sideswipe me (I have actually seen this happen to other vehicles). I can only imagine it’s some sort of flex bc people have to avoid their oversized tiny-penismobile.

This says otherwise

At least 4GB, my previous employer was a young guy that was an Apple simp. He bought a bunch of Mac minis as desktop computers and they only had 4GB of RAM. They were the most garbage piece of shit computer I have ever had the displeasure of being forced to use. It really wasn’t even usable, it would lock up just trying to open any web browser or even the file explorer (or whatever Apple calls it). It really amazes me how Apple continues to shit in their customers mouths, tell them it’s chocolate ice cream and they believe them

Ads can actually be blocked in apps if you use a VPN that has the ability. Though not all apps will function with a VPN enabled

Credit cards are definitely better than debit cards if you can manage your spending well. The biggest reason for me is that credit cards offer better fraud protection. Say your debit card gets stolen, they can clean out your entire bank account and suddenly you have no money. It will take time for the bank to reverse these charges, meanwhile you have no way to buy necessities. With credit it’s not your money and the credit card companies are insured and deal with this stuff daily. You also still have money in your bank account for necessities.

You absolutely have to be careful with credit though, especially if you aren’t good at budgeting. It’s not free money and will charge interest if not paid off each month, but if you can use it responsibly you can take advantage of the perks, like cash back, points and whatever else they offer.

What I personally do is only use credit cards, I have certain ones that offer the best perks for certain purchases and pay them off in full every month at minimum. You can set them up to be very similar to a debit card and monitor your spending so you don’t build up too much debt. It boils down to whether or not you can trust yourself to be vigilant in sticking to a budget.

While I agree with you on the second point, I don’t believe debit cards are better than credit cards for several reasons. The main one is that credit cards offer better fraud protection. Say your debit card gets stolen, they can clean out your entire bank account and suddenly you have no money. It will take time for the bank to reverse these charges, meanwhile you have no way to buy necessities. With credit it’s not your money and the credit card companies are insured and deal with this stuff daily. You also still have money in your bank account.

You absolutely have to be careful with credit though, especially if you aren’t good at budgeting. It’s not free money, but if you can use it responsibly you can take advantage of the credit card perks, like cash back.

The fuck is rizz?

Because my parents pay for it and it still works in my and my brother’s houses despite the no password sharing thing. We are still frequently using it in 5 different households and Netflix has yet to tell us we’re being charged extra for doing so.

It looks like the belt buckle is on his right hip. Maybe he’s never worn one before? Definitely would make taking your pants off interesting, lol.

Just curious, is there a specific reason you keep data and wifi off unless you’re using them?

Wow, I would immediately return any TV that pulled that bs. I have used Sony TV’s for a very long time and have never encountered this issue, I even bought a new one in summer 2022 and it did not require Internet connection to function.

I think they’re just implying that even if YouTube figures out how to block adblock, someone will just find a way to block the adblock block and so on ad infinitum. It will just be the same game of cat and mouse we’ve been playing for years with the intrusive ad business.

Or you could just use a new tv with smart features and never connect it to your network. It’s what I’ve done with all the TVs in my house and I simply use an external device I trust to stream.

Not really but you can always get a “smart” tv and never connect it to the Internet. If you want to stream just use an external device you trust like a PC

I find it incredibly annoying that Google won’t let you merge or transfer purchases to a new account.

LG ending their mobile division really sucked, the V series phones were some of the best phones ever imo. I really miss my V30, the quad DAC was awesome and the camera was actually pretty amazing too. They also weren’t bloated with unremovable shit like flagships are nowadays.

So I’m really confused about the whole Netflix thing. It hasn’t asked me to set a household location and the whole no password sharing thing was supposed to have taken effect back in May, right? Since May, my family has continued to use Netflix as if nothing has changed and we said if they try to charge us extra, we will cancel. Our Netflix is regularly used at 4 different “households” and they have yet to charge a fee and have not automatically set a household like they claimed they would.

Fuuuck, I wish my rent was less than 3 times that for a 1b 1b

It’s a contraction of “you” and “all.” It was never a gendered phrase to start with.
