Where are you posting these stories? I'd like to check them out.

I noticed this before I left Reddit last summer. Except for a few smaller niche subreddits that had decent discussions, everything else seemed like bots. I also noticed a lot of my comments and replies were deleted for no apparent reason so I quit participating. I do miss Reddit from the time period mentioned but nothing stays the same and it's time to move on.

I can see why no bank would lend him money, especially with the risk of his properties being seized. But this guy keeps getting away with it. I won't believe it until I see it.

I'd actually be more surprised if banks didn't lend him money.

I don't understand why he would be allowed to borrow money for this purpose. Seems to me that would be an opportunity to commit more fraud by using properties at inflated values as collateral.

You are right about the current state of CAD/Engineering software being a mess. Crazy subscription models and no real innovation. Buggy software everywhere.AutoCad crashes at least 3 times a day or does weird stuff like the ribbon and menus disappearing. I'd love to find something that worked as an alternative.

It's probably a mix of that and how CAD/Engineering software is a complicated niche market. It's not as ubiquitous as something like an office suite or even a phot editor like GIMP. I don't have anything to back that up other than a hunch.

I do a lot of 2D civil drawings for underground utility construction and I haven't found anything that does what I need. Also the selection is pretty much limited to Windows. The CAD programs on Mac seem to be limited compared to their Windows brethren.

There really isn't much good FOSS software in the CAD/Engineering world. I've tried the 2D and 3D solutions that I've beena able to find and they are missing way too many features or the learning curve is crazy steep. If anyone knows of good CAD software let me know, I'd love to try it.

It really should be the guy rubbing his nipples from "Informative Murder Porn"

WI have completely lost the ability to distinguish satire from reality. I'm assuming this is real but damn if we don't live in the worst timeline.

I've always tipped 20% for good service and 15% for average or below. I usually don't tip less that 15% unless it's just abysmal or I'm picking up a to go order in which case I usually do 8-10%. Several of the restaurants around me have changed from 15% / 20% on the suggested tip to 20% / 25% and a few have even added 30%. And I've also noticed the suggested tips are calculated on the after tax amount, and some restaurants that charge a credit card processing fee calculate the suggested tip on that amount. I tip on pretax and pre-fee totals and cap at 20%. If it get worse, my eating at restaurants will start becoming less and less.

I think it's mostly aboit the massive carbon footprint of a private jet and Elon has a rep for really short frequent flights.

I bought mine when it fiest came out and I'm not really having any major issues. I find the screen rotation will occasionally act flaky and I had to reboot a couple of times because the keyboard wouldn't come up qhen I touched a dialog box, but that stopped with the last update. Sorry you're having trouble.

I thought it was a modded Kia Telluride

Who?

I agree but I doubt if this were a well written article it would get anywhere near the exposure it'll get on YouTube.

I'll be really surprised if he makes that date.

Lexus is probably highly reliable but Audi's have the same problem as other German makes- tons of cheap plastic under the hood that disintegrates at around the 5 year mark. There are lots of YouTube videos about it.

Once the courts are done with federal agencies Deals won't have to worry about OSHA.
