I agree with all of what you said. Just to add. I’d block any music like that on my streaming app.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Based on your comment and post history, I’m trying to figure out why you all questions like this? Bored? Feel like fighting? Want to troll?
- Comment on Why hasn't video quality improved much over the past ten years? 1 week ago:
Mean on TV or YouTube videos or what?
- Comment on Do kids of rich people feel loved, or are their rich parents toxic? 1 week ago:
I would say even at the multi billionaire level it’s the same as at extremely poor level for the odds of feeling loved. Op is way over generalizing on this subject.
- Comment on Meaning of the phrase “Hang dead.”? 1 week ago:
No idea. Never heard the phrase.
- Comment on Technology isn't fun anymore 2 weeks ago:
The biggest problem for me is the absolute crap interfaces for most tech. No logic in the design.no ability to look at an interface and be able to just understand what you need to do. Now it’s spend an hour doing Google searches and trying to figure it out.
- Comment on Like Trump says that the cartels have invaded Canada wouldn't they have to pass through the US, avoid checkpoint, border control on both sides and many other things? So Canada can only blame the US? 2 weeks ago:
Canada touches the Atlantic and the pacific and so does the US and so does Mexico. Why would you have to go from one ocean to the other? Just sail up the coast
- Comment on Like Trump says that the cartels have invaded Canada wouldn't they have to pass through the US, avoid checkpoint, border control on both sides and many other things? So Canada can only blame the US? 2 weeks ago:
Not really. The reality is they could use planes, subs, boats. No need to go through or even over the US.

In the early days of Vegas yeah it was true or at least it’s said it was.
Today not that we know of.

Exactly. What specifically are the democrats to do at this point?
- Comment on Why do people see me as far older than 19 when I type the way I do sometimes?/Why do people think full stops are rude? 4 weeks ago:
The idea of periods being rude or something is moronic.

- Comment on If political agendas were released, or summarized, like patch notes would people better understand what they are signup for? for? 4 weeks ago:
He literally said he wanted the unilateral ability to remove benefits of a constitutional amendment from United States citizens. Once you give that ability to one President you give it to ALL of them. Once you let a President do that to one amendment, you let them do it to ALL amendments.
People voted in mass for that option.
On a side note when this blows up in their faces, I will have ZERO sympathy. They want it, they got it.

Someone needs to sue him for identity theft.him.
As fast so know it won’t matter that he claims "I never said it was me ". It’s that a reasonable person would take it that he was implying it was him. A reasonable person would believe it was him.
Sure the crap out of him.

Are there really people getting upset about a ?
Really!?
People can get a thicker skin ?

Or I might get petty ?
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 5 weeks ago:
I agree. Even if the democrats were doomed to fail because of how the Republicans operate. But the democrats didn’t even start the process.
At least be in record that a bill was put up and the Republicans voted it down. To not do anything was stupid. Maybe ya get lucky and get something passed.
- Comment on Are mood problems a “turn off” for people even when they’re hard to manage? 5 weeks ago:
That entire second paragraph… Needs to be your opening statement to your therapist. They can help you figure out what is wrong with it and how to help you.
I am no where near qualified to answer it for you.
- Comment on Are mood problems a “turn off” for people even when they’re hard to manage? 5 weeks ago:
If i simply said hi to someone and they screamed I HEARD YOU, I would literally think fine then I won’t say hi again.
This is something called human nature. If you act like an ass to me then I will stop talking to you. The fact that you don’t see that says not only do you have anger issues, I would ask if you are sociopathic or bipolar. You need serious help either way. Even if you aren’t either of those you need to figure out how to fix this. You won’t have many friends if you keep going this way.
You call it tough love but trust be very few people on the entire planet would call it anything other then being an asshole.
There is a way to help people without being a jerk about it.
To answer the question of : do people find it a turnoff?
Hell yes. Why would they find it any other thing then a turn off? People don’t enjoy being treated that way.
You praise men and ignore women and you think that’s ok. That’s a serious disconnect from reality. Wanting women to improve themselves is good, but this is NOT the way to do it.
Again I would encourage you to get help.
- Comment on why do people say annoying/rude stuff and then tell you “it was a joke!” 5 weeks ago:
Depends are we taking annoying stuff?
Then it might be that you didn’t understand their sense of humor.
Rude? It’s hard to say. Without being there I would hesitate to judge in either direction. Was it that they were actually being rude and are just an asshole? Was it not that bad and you don’t get their sense of humor? Is it that you actually have no sense is humor? It’s difficult to know without a lot more detail.

Give up. Block them. Move on. There is zero possibility of changing them.
- Comment on Will online only "Device Activation" become the norm for every device in the future? / Will everything require an app in the future? 1 month ago:
All of those things are important, and no, we don’t have to fix them all at the same time, but let’s fix one of them. choose , which one do you wanna fix first. Then let’s start working on it. That is true if we try to tell the average person out there to work on all these, it’s too much it’s overwhelming. They’re not gonna try but if we focus Then there’s possibility.
- Comment on Will online only "Device Activation" become the norm for every device in the future? / Will everything require an app in the future? 1 month ago:
I have.

Food is a bad example because it will never have a subscription fee on it.
The point of my post was if there’s any way reasonably that you can get around not buying it, then just don’t buy it.
That’s why I chose a microwave. Do you really have to have a microwave? Not really
do you really have to have a TV to watch TV? No you don’t have to watch TV.
Do You really have to have an electronic alarm clock? No.
Headphones same thing, …
Are there instances where you might not have any choice? Yeah of course. But the vast majority of purchases do not fall in that category. That’s my point. If there is a realistic way to not buy something then don’t.
Car is a great example: do you really have to buy a NEW car? No. You are choosing to buy a new car. There’s used cars out there.
Don’t need to know the ins and outs of every industry. Just ask a couple of simple questions: does this have a subscription fee? Do I really have absolutely no other choice but to buy this item?
Not sure why that would be tough for people to ask.
