Ahh, the voice of reason. All ____ are ____ (fill in with your favorite stereotypes). Then, us serfs fight amongst ourselves, oblivious to what's really going on.

What's the furthest you have ever walked in a single day? Why'd you walk that far? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

About 25 miles. About 30 years ago, I had a stint with meth, short-lived, thankfully. I walked from the north end of my city to a suburb south of the city to my sisters house to detox after a bender and running out of money. Funny thing, in retrospect, I had just enough money left for bus fare but when I got on the bus, I was still so sketched out (paranoid) that I couldn't bear to be around other (sober) people. So, I got off the bus immediately and walked. Not my finest hour.

Average credit card balances jump 10% to a record $6,360, and more consumers fall behind on payments in c/[email protected]

Discover is the best one I've ever had. No annual fee, started out with 0% interest for 18 months. I constantly get 0% balance transfer offers for 12 months, sure it costs a 3% one time fee, but it sure saves money on interest. Plus, their customer service and fraud dispute are the best imo.

Reddit started doing what they always wanted to do, sell user content to AI. in c/[email protected]

Who cares? Fuck reddit. Half the content is bots anyway. So, bots stealing content to train AI to make content, which the bots will steal and repost. Circle of death for reddit. Good luck with that IPO.

It seems there are details missing from your story. I find some similarities to your story to my credit history and I've had drastically different results.

Also, single digit credit scores aren't a thing.

How does employing a rapist not constitute an unsafe work environment for female employees? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You're stating that "not guilty" doesn't mean "innocent." I'm adding that "not guilty" doesn't always mean "guilty but got away with it." Which part confused you?

Similarly, "not guilty" does not necessarily mean "guilty, but we couldn't prove 100%". So, a lack of conviction is not evidence that they did commit a crime, as you're implying. This is especially relevant to rape cases.

Send me a violation? Okay, let me spam your inbox. (lemmy.one)
 

I'm in property management, specifically maintenance (I know landlords bad but I don't own the property; just my job). I got a letter from the city informing me of a violation because they couldn't inspect a vacant apartment. See, they scheduled a property wide inspection for the whole property awhile ago and they couldn't get into this apartment. Two weeks later I get this letter that we're in "violation" and don't rent the apartment until they can inspect. Well, the paperwork arrived late (their fault) and the apartment is already re-rented. So we could potentially be fined because that makes so much sense. Sorry for the longish backstory. I'm now going to send the inspector, and everyone in the department including the director, an email whenever we get a vacancy at any of our properties. Probably I can make a program to automate this. We manage 70 complexes, 2000 apartments. Enjoy the emails.
