Can you do this on your TV? Serious question, I can't stand the amount of ads these days.

Was actually talking about this with my siblings yesterday. I was born in the 80's but most of my entertainment (movies, music, etc) is from the 80's.
One my siblings said it best "nobody was embarrassed in the 80's" :lol:
The music, clothes, and just general aesthetics of the 80's was so wild and seemed to come out of nowhere.

re: Vinegar deters chiggers, cleans your ankles and shoes while mowing, and you can drink it

Solid thread
I just learned recently that there's professional grade vinegar you can get at home depot and it does all kinds of cool shite.
Used it as weed killer so far, but interested to read some more applications.

Similarly, I often think about very weird scenarios and actions and consider that someone has likely done that simply due to how many people there are in the world.

People who travel with babies that do nothing but cry; what's the point? Stay the frick home
This is dumb
There are many reasons that people may need to travel with a baby aside from just a vacation.
Even if it is for a vacation, frick off. You're on public transportation. Pay for first class or fly private if you dont like it. People with kids aren't going to put their life on hold because some people don't know how to put on headphones.
quote:
Neighborhoods have 75% of the apartments being around $2k. Many of those are bought by investors and turned into condos in the 800k-1M range. Many of those condos are bought as vacation/secondary stays in the city. Neighborhood now has 35% of the apartments being around $2k.
That certainly makes sense.
I'd be interested in how much that's actually happened in otherwise affordable areas.
quote:
Mamdani's plan means a lot of rents will stay at $2500/mo instead of go to $2550
So their costs rise with inflation but they aren't allowed to raise rent in parallel.
How generous.

Another issue driving scarcity is the sheer amount of wealthy people who have a 2nd or 3rd or 4th residence in NYC. (For all the talk of rich people being driven away, they sure keep flocking here in droves)
This isn't tracking with me. How does a wealthy person owning a multimillion dollar 2nd residence affect the average person paying $2k in rent?
It's not like the sandwich maker down the street would ever live there. Is that more to do about converting those spaces into rentals? Which also doesn't make sense but I'm genuinely trying to understand the argument.

but I don’t know how you fix what’s going on in NYC for anything close to affordable rent.
Why exactly does it need to be "fixed"?
This is always the false narrative that gets Gov't involved, then in turn the problem gets much worse down the line because Gov't policies are always shortsighted.
Remove regulations as much as feasibly possible, then let the market do its thing. There's no golden rule that states people can live wherever they want.

However, I'm skeptical of anything Tulane does. They couldn't keep their own shitty hospital open and had to infiltrate EJ and the entire LCMC complex.
Lol, that's quite the take.

This. If you want ED wait times and costs to go down you should relish more urgent cares.
So you can identify as any gender you want and a man can subsequently walk into a girl's locker room with no problem.
But in order to identify as gay, you need to fill out paperwork proving it?
This is beyond clown world.

Man I got a handwritten letter in the mail from a Jehova witness and I must say I actually took the time to sit down and read the whole letter and had an appreciation for it. Looked like a 13 year old wrote it.
Usually any type of bible thumping mail goes directly in the trash but I can respect the hustle of them JW's.

re: OpenAI - China ran covert campaign to turn Americans against data centers, but used facts
Posted by rintintin on 6/12/26 at 7:23 am to Stealth Matrix
I don't think the largest companies in the world are dropping unprecedented levels of capex for something that doesn't have demand.
Are they "needed" is not the right question, technically we don't need a bunch of the modern shite we use.
The right question is, is there demand? And the answer to that right now is unequivocally yes. So much so that there's a massive shortage of data centers.
I'm on the fence on whether they're good or bad, but my optimistic side says that if we want power technology to advance, then this massive demand is how to achieve that. The demand and shortage of power has never been higher. Innovation in that space is absolutely needed to keep up. This could be a new industrial revolution for power and electricity.

Not trying to divert this thread but I really need to know more about this. I have so many questions.
- How much money do you make?
- How many kids do you have (and what age)
- What does breakfast look like? Yall really leave the house to eat breakfast everyday?
I need to know how this operates :lol:

I like dogs.
I like people with dogs.
I hate people who bring their dogs everywhere and act like it's normal to bring animals inside establishments.

Female's blame weight gain on "uncontrollable" factors. The simple physiological truth behind calorie deficits don't resonate.
re: Am I Essentially Doomed To Weight Loss/Diabetes Medicine?
Posted by rintintin on 5/22/26 at 6:25 am to TheMagicMan
Holy shite what the hell is going on here? Are we already at the point that people think it's impossible to lose weight without drugs?
If your physician told you that I would find a new one ASAP. That's a ridiculously lazy opinion and points to some kind of incentive to get as many people on weight loss drugs as possible.
You're not even that bad off. Get on a diet, get on a workout routine and you can shed that weight in a few months.
What the frick
