Lemmy advice for someone struggling who really needs therapy for a harsh problem can definitely be worse than nothing

You need professional therapy, not “advice” from Lemmy

1. MS has a horrible track record on privacy or even caring about their customers; Apple, deservedly or not, has higher level of consumer’s trust

2. MS brought out features too obviously ripe for abuse built in the most insecure way, lied about it and was quickly proven a liar. Apple says they built their AI in a secure way, their fans believe them and have not challenged

3. Undoubtedly, there is still a huge Apple fanbase that would tell you Apple’s turds smell nice. So there’s a portion of that in the mix as well

So you just like the new lazy writing. Got it.

No idea where you are drawing this from

Because I know you didn’t just draw a straight line from the 1939 Batman to the current Batman and was like ‘these are the same!’

Oh I see, you lack reading comprehension. To make it extra clear, having a common trait (what I actually said) does not mean “these are the same”

And this is where we part ways. Cuz this is a threat about opinions I gave mine and you are clearly mad that I don’t like your favorite version of Batman.

I’m not mad at all… Disagreeing with you does not make me your enemy… You care confusing me with yourself lol

Totally fair… And honestly good practice, otherwise it just becomes “normal”

Yeah no. I think you’re confused because Batman Begins came out in 2005 which was decades ago.

I’m talking about Batman the character, you know? The one first published in 1939. There have been multiple versions but “dark and broody” has been a pretty common trait

If you forgot he’s actually also known as Bruce Wayne and he knows how to smile and have a good time

No, it’s been well established he cannot get past the trauma of having his parents murdered in front of him. Actually, it has been well established he is now Batman and Bruce is the disguise… So no, he doesn’t really know how to have a good time

Post Nolan he is has lost a lot of complexity. That complexity of the character offset his serious side when the cowl came on.

Not really Nolan’s fault and not what you claimed first either. Batfleck for example was not dark and broody, he was just a fumbling idiot who claimed his superpower was money

Look me dead in the eye and tell me Nolan’s Batman is better than BTAS. Or is even in the same ballpark

Again moving the goal post … What does BTAS have to do with your comment that Nolan made Batman dark and broody??

Batman has been dark and broody decades before the Nolan trilogy.

There have been lighter versions but dark and broody are basically core qualities of the character

I mean, the USA has a Supreme Court Justice literally taking bribes from a billionaire who has stakes in FOUR cases this judge has not recused himself… and literally NOTHING has happened.

Do you really think this recording will do anything?

DO NOT actively try to help anyone who is not sincerely asking for help

A small amount of selfishness is necessary for a healthy life

Spending too much time on lemmy

But then why buy the ticket at all? How are foreign agents going to get your credit card purchase? Just leaving the car in the airport should be enough

I expect you probably missed that the question denotes foreign agents so no worries.

You are right on that, I read “agents” and missed the foreign part

Cynical me says no jail time… We’d be lucky to see house arrest

There is a non-zero chance he will get nothing… Something like a suspended sentence which means he can be called a convicted felon but would suffer no consequences

They would need access to the airports CCTV to determine that I did not actually board the flight.

Hmmm, no they can just ask the airline. They keep track of who boarded and that information is not protected or privileged at all

I’d give you kudos for the creativity, this would make a great scene in a Jack Reacher episode as long as the plot moves on so the audience doesn’t have to time to linger on it

There’s no enshittification outside.

Just watch out for the literal shit some irresponsible pet owners leave behind… Other than that, this is great advice

This is the truth ^

The level of aggressive comments…

It’s devolving quickly into Reddit. Everything is either black or white, dog shit or a miracle… No nuance

Increasingly people attack people instead of ideas when commenting

You are correct in your theory… In practice however there is no such guarantees, if there were, it would be a perpetual money making machine

Investment opportunities that guarantee a return will always guarantee less than the interest of regular loans. So unless you are a billionaire, there is no such luck.

In practice, regular investment like mutual funds average to x in the long run (10 years or so) but you’d never find a 10 year loan that does not require you to pay regularly and with accrued interest for that time, so it defeats the purpose of taking out a loan specifically for investing long term

Switch from regular deodorant to an Alum block

Looks like a piece of ice. Shower normally, dry up, then run the block on cold water and apply… Let it be a few mins and dry your pits

You can thank me by passing the tip to the next person in need ;-)

I’m sorry but what money are you talking about here? A loan with no interest?

Not sure what context this is supposed to apply… But I cannot imagine any that would not leave me in an uncomfortable position or being a total asshole
