It's cool to have someone agree with me so much

I think it is hard. All their platforms look the same, it's difficult to find their voting records. Even their promises can't be trusted.

And since the candidates you hear the most about tend to be the leaders there's a bias to vote for a party, rather than your representative.

Beyond that issues are often things I'm not particularly knowledgeable about, so I don't know say how bad bringing in pay for healthcare would be for the public system (you've got to read studies to know that shit).

In make believe land I think that only impacted and experts would have a say. So corporate interests wouldn't get quite so much say, and distribution would be better. And farmers would get more say on ag related issues and technical people would get more say on things like DRM... But really that also probably just turn to shit.

Is it bad programming

No, it's bad requirements, well ok maybe the programmer came up with the requirements too.

Never again

That's 9%/year annual rate of return (assuming 2% inflation), which is good, but not unheard of (here's the calculator i used. This ignores all the money they put into the place while they lived in it (roof's and heaters etc aren't cheap). It also discounts that they need to find a place to live in 2021 where all houses just got much more expensive then back in 1986.

That whole time they were paying property tax.

This stinks. I'm not a landlord, I do own my own house.

And at least the corps have to pay tax on their profits

I wish i payed 15%. I'm not even counting on the rebates they get for setting up shop places, or developing "doing research". Corporations quite often do not pay their fair share. Corporations do buy up swaths of real estate.

Private owners who bought when things were cheap and are now multimillionaires got all that money effort-free and tax-free thanks to the principal residence exception.

Almost nobody got their shit effort-free, you still have to go in with the bank and pay them a shit tonne of money. Principal residence only applies to first residence, and you still have to pay taxes on your residence (I know, because I pay them).

And here's some news for you: housing was always relatively expensive, people who bought gigantic mortgages took on a whole pile of risk, made the banks rich, and sometimes came out richer for it; that doesn't make them bad.

It's just not my kink, like I wouldn't call my partner by a family honorific.

[–] karlhungus@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Cool, if that's what you actually want, maybe just ask your partner. IMO the daddy shit is a bit over the top.

That's just it. You are more likely to have better outcomes focusing on what you want for you rather then on how you can appeal to more random people.

Why do you want men who want bigger boobs? It seems like because it'll appeal to more men? If that's the case why do you want to appeal to more men? If it's for something like: because I'd like to have sex with more of them, guess what: men just want to have sex, sure some can be choosy, but far far more won't care.

At your young looking age, you can choose from all sorts of men who will have no idea how to please you.

We use build kite, I like it better as an end user than other things I've used (circle ci, Travis, bamboo). I haven't been on devops setup end of it much so can't really talk to that end. I've liked what I've used of gh actions as well.

That language theory imo is pretty well shown to be very small via tests described well here:the language hoax.

Sort of with you wrt computer languages though
