Problem is with my Python socks is that some pairs look similar but I don't actually know they are mismatched until I try to stand up, then my legs give out, I collapse onto the floor, and piss myself.

Killingyouguy! posted:i've had the same socks for like five years what the gently caress is this guy doing that replacing every 6 months is warranted I guess it's not clear if they like their socks being new and soft, and they're just buying the same model again, or they're buying different types of socks each time. I tend to wear my socks until they get holes but the idea of proactively replacing them doesn't seem totally ridiculous because when they're close to being worn out they're less comfortable anyway and it's pretty inconvenient if you're on a trip and they randomly get a hole or something.

they are not "donating their used socks to charity." they are having the salvation army throw them out for them.

I think I have the opposite problem where I never want to donate stuff because I'm sure they'll think it's junk and throw it out and be mad at me for trying to donate it

Dalewyn 1 hour ago | on: Show HN: Avoiding Imgur Link Rot You're going to need to do a lot more than that to convince me that the internet is a human right and public need. And yes, you do need to convince me: If it's "publicly funded" then I (and everyone else) am/are paying for it. Personally, I would sooner pay for another US navy aircraft carrier.

please at least make sure your socks go to recycling instead of landfill. cotton fiber isn’t worthless.

jimmaswell 1 hour ago | parent | prev | next [–] As an aside (not that you endorsed it) is anyone else sick of hearing "tech bro"? It feels like a slur pretty much. I can't take anyone seriously who uses it. As someone who makes art occasionally and commissions artists regularly, when an artist whines about "ai tech bros" it makes me want to use ai even more out of spite. mrshadowgoose 59 minutes ago | root | parent | prev | next [–] I feel the same way. At least in my social circles, "tech bro" tends to be used by the loudest and least-informed individuals when they try to marginalize something they don't understand, but vaguely don't like (or have read that they're not supposed to like). brigadier132 22 minutes ago | root | parent | prev | next [–] "Tech bro" is just an insult created purely from sour grapes. The people that use the term "tech bro" are the same people that describe things as "gross". These are the people that will be automated out of jobs first.

I choose to read this as "pire review" (French for "worse" or "worst", pronounced the same as "peer" in English), so getting the worst reviewing.

hospitalJail 12 hours ago | next [–] I'd like to see more tools on how to quit addictive behaviors. I read Power of Habit, so I can easily quit things, but not everyone was lucky to be gifted a 300 page book and read it. If that was taught as a class in high school, it might eliminate long-term drug addiction. How many times are people subjecting themselves to social media they don't really want to view because they habitually unlock their phone and check their notifications? These kind of things are fighting fire with a squirt gun. Telling people to 'use less' and 'monitor' are easy to beat with addictive platforms. reply

badrabbit 5 hours ago | root | parent | prev [–] Wth are you talking about? That's capitalism! Everything is worth what people are willing to pay for it. If you have a house that can sell for 300k but you sell for the first person that comes along for 200k whose fault is that? You people blame these companies instead of blaming the reason people are ignorant. It's their wealth to protect or squander. Is lottery predatory, I bet you think so, payday loans? Car title loans? Casinos? Welcome to capitalism! People lose money because of their ignorance all the time. I will give you a personal example since you gave me one. Many moons ago, I needed money for an emergency and took out pay day loans, they asked for only basic info and they were fast. i am sure banks would haggle you and give you a better loan anyways but I needed it fast and lost a lot of money because if it. And guess what? i am grateful for those companies that people like you are trying to shut down. If you think your peers are ignorant then educate them! I will give you another example, I sold a car I paid in total 10k+ on for a few hundred dollars from a "we buy junk cars" company, just the metal alone could have gotten me more money but I just needed it gone ASAP and I am so glad I did that. You wanna take away my choices to stoke your freaking ego about how nice and caring of a person you are? Go do that elsewhere! Leave my freedom to make bad decisions alone. Neither you nor the government are my loving nanny! If I had a house that needs to close fast even at a huge loss I wanna find the first company I see advertised on a billboard or google results and get liquidity immediately! My wealth. mine! Period. It feels good I bet to pretend to be the savior of the uneducated poor from the evil greedy corporations, but in my perspective you are the virtue signaling hero wannabe's taking what little freedom we have away. Millions of americans love predatory businesses, this is a democracy not a technocracy or meritocracy, which means we the people get to have whatever lovely situations we want and your role to affect change is to communicate and engage in debates (I wonder how many won't even participate in this thread seeing me downvoted to max lol) not in silly outrage and virtue signaling, so you can change our minds (and I give you credit for at least replying and trying to do just that). I don't like deceptive businesses, I just want predatory ones for when I want to be preyed upon. If they promised the best prices that would be a different story but their only claim is that they will give you cash for your crappy house. It is amazing how many red tapes and regulations and bullshit I have to jump through just trying to exist in this supposedly free society. please stop making things shitter so you can feel like you helped people that aren't asking for your help. reply
