- Comment on We need a new Amazon 4 days ago:
Not perfect but a lot of big box stores offer free shipping. I usually will check Walmart, Best Buy, Target B&H and Google shopping. I’m pretty sure they all offer free shipping after $35. Chewy for animal stuff is really good too. Also check the manufacturer, I recently bought a gift that way and it was cheaper and had more selection options than dumb Amazon.

- Comment on How is this Amazon ad anything BUT a trick to get a 7 year old child to get their mitts on dad's phone and charge his credit card $13K in two clicks? 1 week ago:
Thought these ads were offering a way to launder money.
- Comment on Has any country actually _solved_ the housing crisis? 1 week ago:
There’s a bunch of available housing in my area, but it’s just super expensive. I guess building more might work. My only concern is I only see larger 3+ BR housing or shared housing behind built. The days is affordable 1 to 2 bedroom houses are over. If you want something smaller, you are stuck with condo and high HOAs. Personally, I think they should bring back trailer parks and force ownership to be local.
- Comment on I can't imagine being paid to act like I enjoy working in the office 1 week ago:
Open office floor layouts are horrible for those that need to get “into the zone” and grind through work. Nothing like being forced to hearing about somebody’s “Epic” drunk’n weekend.
- Comment on I wonder why people litter in the USA? 1 week ago:
I swear there are less garbage cans in public areas now than 15 years ago. It’s probably my fault for for doing quick car cleans and dumping at every gas station and retail store.
Side note: garbage is expensive these days
- Comment on If Open Source is so great... 4 weeks ago:
Open source is the free bicycle that will get you to the coffee shop. Priority software is the SUV you lease to do the same.
- Comment on "Florida is a conservative Christian state" 1 month ago:
Why stop at abortion? Which Bible verse is that anyway? Let’s get to work and add more laws. How about the one for adultery? That’s a good one.
Leviticus 20:10 threatened that ‘the man that committeth adultery with another man’s wife … the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death’, while Deuteronomy 22:22 thundered, if a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband, then both of them shall die

Nice oversized hatchback with no internal space
- Comment on Goodwill is out of control 1 month ago:
Goodwill’s good will is teaching people English and helping them get jobs, not selling 2nd hand items to the needy. It’s just too bad they destroyed all the cool Mom and Pop thrift stores.
- Comment on Houses in my area increases 82% in just 4 years 1 month ago:
Bought a house 5 years ago. Cheaper than renting and equity says I made 100k. It’s good.
It’s just lame how expensive they are now. BTW, they were to expensive 5 years ago too.

Same is true with physical. It’s just harder for them to take it away.
- Comment on Fallout TV Show ... not vibing with eps 1,2 ... what am I missing? 4 months ago:
I watched 3 episodes and thought it felt oddly lopsided. I really liked the scenery and environments but the writing just bad.
- Comment on He’s So Annoying: For years, being “sexy” didn’t work for Ryan Reynolds. It took him too long to realize being irritating did 4 months ago:
He sort of does the 80’s movie lead protagonist thing. Like Bill Murray in Stripes and Steve Guttenberg in Police Academy.

- Comment on Fallout Show Nominated For 16 Emmy Awards, Including Best Actor For Walton Goggins 5 months ago:
Just watched the 2nd episode and it’s was okay but it the main protagonist goes from desert to forest like 3 times walking. No food, a small thing of water. I’m probably missing something.

Straight to (Paramount) home video
- Comment on $843 million lawsuit against Valve already has its own website: "The Steam Claim" accuses the biggest store in PC gaming of "overcharging" players 6 months ago:
How can this be? All the games I buy on Steam are cheaper than on other platforms. Where are these cheaper games?

Microsoft doesn’t need those studios, just the IPs.
- Comment on Great news for 4K Blu-ray fans – 2 big stores will now stock discs 7 months ago:
“will now stock” more like have a corner shelf with 20 different movies. Better than nothing I guess.

- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 7 months ago:
Not just vegans. These a million of things that bring this up in people.
Holier Than Tho - “having or showing the annoying attitude of people who believe that they are morally better than other people.”

It seems pretty low key and not a big Nike ad with a bunch of lame talking heads. Fun and entertaining.
