@dudeabides4now@MrCinWI@Owennfa When I was looking, the "fixer upper" had an AC unit that looked like it had been sourced from a salvage yard. And it was still priced as if it was turn key. Folks are just nuts.
@MrCinWI@Owennfa The problem is the $400K home isn't in high end suburbia. It isn't even brand new construction. It's just a home in a working class suburb. The suburb is now a thing to eventually aspire to. One day.
@BlackDumpling If what the report claims is only 10% true & 90% made up, there's still a serious fucking problem. So, it's insane to see folks being "well there's a small typo on page 4 subsection 2" & then decide that means all's well & no need to look further.
@SandyofCthulhu@ShamashAran I'd be curious about how the levels compare to their water source, which I believe is just river water. Could just be high phosphate content in the river. And now the pool doesn't constantly leak, so there you are.
@Burword1211351@Acyn Or it's just terrible river water run through an aging filtration system that also needs fixing. It's entirely likely fixing one problem (the pool leaking like a sieve) just exposed other problems. And those need to be fixed too. It'll just take more work.
@GPrime85@BBCNews It's funny, because just earlier in the TL I saw a bit from them about how inflation is low in the UK. Which is great. But if I had massive problems with rape and public beheadings I'd probably not be super concerned about inflation.
@BlackDumpling It is wild how mad some folks are that someone who isn't them has succeeded at stuff. Like, I'd like to be more successful too, but I'm not mad that others are having a good run of things.
@SenSanders Have you considered not making everyone pay into a giant Ponzi scheme? Could we not just keep our money? If all my SS taxes had gone into an IRA I'd be set. I don't need Elon's money. I do need my gov't to treat mine like a finite resource & not an endless credit card.
@DaddyWarpig Maybe the description is just not explaining things well, but "disembodied voice whispering in my ear" does not sound good. I like my existing, non haunted earbuds & headphones just fine.
@CountDankulaTV@gingerrtom The US gov't alone pulled in over $5 trillion dollars in tax revenue last year. Cash money. For just one year. But somehow there's never enough. God forbid some Congresscritter's spouse's boyfriend not have a high paid administrative job at some NGO on the public dime.
@Huckpjones@Keir_Starmer The only thing that surprises me about all this is the idea that the fucking Irish, of all people, would just take this public beheading nonsense lying down. The Irish? Are you kidding me?
@SuperSisi What kind of SNES titles are you playing in Japan that they're adult content? Cause we definitely didn't get that in the North American market.
@FuturistDog@royermattw Maybe I'm misremembering. But didn't it leak? And look bad? And everyone else's "proposal" to fix it cost vastly more with no guarantees of actually addressing the problem?
@BlackDumpling@olsenbdnr I really appreciate the "Not Real" line. There's just something extra hilarious about having to make the statement that big boob fairies are not real.
