Just to add, credit limits vary wildly between card issuers. There’s often no rhyme or reason as to why some give such a higher limit. My cards range from like 4k to 12k

jeffw ,

It’s not a butter knife? What’s the surprising thing about a knife cutting skin?

jeffw ,

Imagine having that much of a persecution complex

jeffw ,

There’s a community for NVIDIA stock? Tf do they even talk about?

jeffw OP ,

What is the point of this comment? Are you just being racist and insulting Black people?

jeffw OP ,

You could follow journalists you like or outlets though

jeffw OP ,

Are you thinking of a timeshare? I know some people who love having an HOA take care of all their shit for them

jeffw ,

Pretty sure the little slit was so that you could use a flathead screwdriver. Had to do that a couple times

jeffw ,

I mean, I could’ve been doing it wrong lol

jeffw ,

This was posted and downvoted to shit a few days ago. Why do people keep posting it?

jeffw ,

That’s what you get for going to America’s second best Rochester.

That being said, people don’t normally go there for good reasons. Hope you’re healthy

jeffw ,

Sorry to hear that dude. I work in healthcare, so feel free to DM me if I can ever help (not clinical, so don’t ask for medical advice lol, but navigating the system or anything like that)

jeffw ,

That all sounds rough, but I’m glad you’ve had some progress! My mom has TN and has really valued going to a regular support group, FWIW.

jeffw ,

It is, but only in some states. Probably not where OP lives

jeffw ,

This is what companies that actually care about privacy do. People over profits

Edit: actually, I’m not quite that naive, there’s certainly a business motive here. Cut the dead weight before it drags you down. Still, a good move nonetheless

jeffw ,

Nonprofits can’t lose money. They still got bills and are motivated by revenue. I say this as someone who has worked in non-profits for most of my adult life

jeffw ,

For-profits don’t all have shareholders. Non-profits still have boards (and with non-profits it’s at times more difficult to rid your company of toxic board members). I’ve seen non-profits that move like snails and for-profits that move like cheetahs.

And I wouldn’t really say it’s easier, no. For two companies of the same size, I don’t think it would be any different just because you’re a public company. Plenty of them don’t mind posting a loss if they defend it with investments. Investors, especially institutional ones, don’t just look at revenue. Assets, liabilities, equity, it all frames investing decisions.

jeffw ,

They need to make money. They need to pay bills and pay employees. If you’re losing money, you have to fire people or downsize, just like any other business. Or borrow money

jeffw ,

Sorry, I think I wasn’t clear. They can’t lose money if they want to remain in business is what I should have said.

jeffw OP ,

Sure, shareholders won’t pay if your product shits the bed. If there’s a repeat of last year, you’ll see the stock price dip

jeffw OP ,

There’s a shit ton of people I’d trust more with this work than Elon

jeffw OP ,

But Huffman, who cofounded Reddit back in 2005, also boasted that Reddit is different because it is “free from the airbrushing and filters of social media” and criticized what he sees as over-the-top meddling in online discussion.

lol

jeffw ,

What if it was just lobbying from the VPN industry this whole time?

jeffw ,

Go back a decade and it was a little better. I used some scripts that optimized things, along with the Turkopticon community this article mentions and a subreddit for high paying tasks.

jeffw ,

Here’s a thought… maybe they could try making a good game?

jeffw ,

Buy puts?

jeffw ,

Oh my god, I did not realize you were talking about stock options haha. My brain just did not register it in this context

jeffw ,

Not sure I buy that. I think there’s been a steady decline. None of the sports titles have done anything interesting in years. Shooters have been declining too. Go back a decade and they had some bright spots like Battlefield Bad Company, which I’d argue broke the mold that they’ve used before and after those games.

There have always been a couple games here and there that were good, just like the Bad Company games a decade ago and the Jedi games now. But those are the exceptions

jeffw ,

Exactly. And this is Lemmy, the modlogs are public. People always want to believe things are a conspiracy instead of logically considering more plausible reasons.

jeffw ,

Can you point to a community where it’s not public? I’ve never seen one and my understanding was that was a feature of Lemmy, if not all of the fediverse

jeffw ,

I mean, it’s true. WSB has been under scrutiny and introduces the risk of litigation or legal action towards Reddit. That could hurt stock prices. It’s all pretty routine to disclose potential risks in IPO documents or regular annual shareholder documents.

jeffw ,

In risk management terms, lack of profit isn’t a risk. That’s more so an outcome.

jeffw ,

The second result I. The USA is the hotline too.

jeffw ,

Blockbuster had new releases and a handful of classics. One store probably had .01% of the volume of titles on Netflix. If they even had that many.
