bionicjoey,

Finally we’ve found a solution to the paradox of tolerance!

bionicjoey,

It does depend on interest rates to some extent. For the past decade, the prevailing wisdom of the software industry has been to pour money into unprofitable ventures with the hope of getting profitable later. In the past year, austerity measures like heightened interest rates have made it so VCs are more interested in money now instead of money later.

bionicjoey,

I suppose that depends on which country you’re in… I’m in Canada and we’re going into an election year. Everything is getting slashed or frozen

bionicjoey,

I’m hopeful that government austerity measures ease up before that happens too much. There have already been so many layoffs.

bionicjoey,

Honestly I think you should re-examine your perspective on charities. Just because they have some amount of administrative overhead doesn’t mean that they are always worse than simply giving money to a random person. That administrative overhead probably helps them operate at a scale that allows them to help far more people than a smaller organization could.

Like, if I give money to a local food bank, that would feed far more needy people than if I went to my local restaurant and bought a bunch of take-out and then went down to a homeless camp and gave random people the take-out. Because food banks have supply chain connections and economies of scale that allow them to buy a lot more food for every dollar than you can get at a restaurant.

bionicjoey,

Fuck tipping. American tipping culture enables employers to get away with paying their hospitality service industry employees starvation wages. By giving a big tip you are just telling the employer “Don’t worry about paying your employees a living wage. I got you fam.”

Obviously I still tip depending on where I am, but the minimum amount that is considered socially acceptable.

bionicjoey,

Maybe you shouldn’t take a job that pays $3/hour and then blame other people for why you get paid so little. My brother in Christ, you accepted the job.

bionicjoey,

I literally stated my preferred approach in the last sentence of that comment.

That’s like saying if you order a pizza on NYE then you aren’t celebrating alone because the pizza delivery guy is there.

bionicjoey,

Oh, you like the internet? Name every IP address!

bionicjoey,

That is a forkbomb and you can’t convince me otherwise

I'm looking for a privacy respecting vacuum robot

I’m looking for a vacuum robot preferably under 500€ and with a cleaning station. My main concern is that most robot vacuum providers seem to need to be connected to the internet. Are there any providers that either don’t need that, where I can block the internet connection or any other way not getting a spy in my home?...

bionicjoey,

You could get one of the older models where they don’t connect to the internet and instead just bumble around bumping into stuff until the place is clean

bionicjoey,

I was going to say that there’s hope yet for humanity. But then I realized that the books category probably includes doujins

    I’m more of a great tits man myself. Though I do still appreciate a good ass.

    bionicjoey,

    If there was such a thing, a “Chinese learners” community for anglophones would be very welcome. I am trying to learn Chinese currently and it would be neat to have an online forum to bounce questions off of.
