  • So is having a question and going out to find the answer yourself. I can only speak from a web dev perspective, but being able to answer your own questions via research is a huge skill and very useful in the workplace. It's also a great way to get different opinions on how things should be done. Your professor isn't always right

  • they usually don't win

    Sorry, had to make that a bit more accurate. For all those wondering how futile voting for anything other than the two major parties is, these are the ones that did the best https://www.thoughtco.com/most-successful-independent-presidential-candidates-3367561

    It basically comes down to: voting independent = voting republican. I'm not saying that's always the case, but it seems to be the trend that voting outside the two major parties is stealing votes from the democrats

  • Same. I've lived in all the basic types of housing: apartment, duplex, house, etc... If I liked being woken up at 3am by some drunk asshole stomping around in the apartment above me or some kid storming in because they don't understand addresses yet, then I would be doing that already. Maybe other people enjoy that sort of thing? You can have your congested living conditions, but leave me and my single-family zone out of it

  • This is the truth, downvoters should be fucking ashamed. Her family didn't think it was racist and protested her removal. Woke assholes made it happen and pat each other on the back for a job well done. Have some clue about what you're protesting or get fucked SJWs!

  • Nobody today is selling a 9 year old car for $900 or the inflation equivalent unless it was turned into a cube at the scrap yard.

    That's a bit under $1800 by today's rates and a 30 second search turned this up: https://indianapolis.craigslist.org/ctd/d/indianapolis-2006-ford-f150/7709051628.html

    Cars are on average more expensive today, new or used. Gas is more expensive, and it's likely more expensive to insure a young driver, which has always been expensive.

    Put in the effort and you can find a good deal. I've done it before and I'll do it again. Buying a new car is a scam, found that one out myself too. I also pay for the same gas and insurance so that's moot

    If they choose "don't drive" over "pour much of what little money I have into propping up a falling apart beater," that's still a choice. Why rag on them for it?

    Not ragging on the choice, I'm ragging on the rationale. "EverYtHinG iS sO 'sPensive" is just "I don't want to be seen driving/living in/wearing that" in disguise. There are cheaper choices or ones that are more effort, but they are there.

    I do get that prices are way out of control but I just saw a sign at McDonald's for a starting wage of $15/hr. When I worked there, I made $4.25/hr which would be about $9/hr today. I bought my car to start working there so this shit is not impossible today.

    Bring the downvotes z'ers, the truth hurts

  • My first car cost $900 in the 90's. It was a '91 bronco 2 that had the driver's-side door replaced and spray painted the approximate colors of the rest of the car. Bought it from some dude selling it along the road. My theory is that gen z'ers are just too picky to live like we did "back in the day" so they say they can't afford things like cars when the real problem is that they can't afford the cars they WANT

  • Last time I tried that was... problematic. I suppose I could try again...

    I'm kinda just getting started. The goal is to have a media server in addition to my current raspberry pi server that will act as a second dns. If I can't find a way to keep them synced, I'll give adguard a try
