Loosely related: if your relatives ever give you anything to sell on Facebook Marketplace or something, they will insist on some sort of insane price which will not move. You lower the price dramatically and it finally sells after weeks and weeks of just sitting there. Knowing that your boomer relative will be angry that it sold for $25 rather than 40 bajillion dollars, you lie to them and say you sold it for $45. They bitch, shit themselves, scream and cry, give you a hard time all throughout Sunday dinner and then claim they're going to sell their own stuff from now on. They never sell anything, or even attempt to do so. The end.

Flock cameras make it look like there's a lot of crime in the area

That's very low for the US

So they'll be like iPhones?

They're already soft launching this with trans people's ID's

Reasons:

1. They refuse to write a will, it's now or never

2. They're tripping over this stuff and getting rescued by the fire department or paramedics on a semiregular basis

3. There are some actually valuable objects, which they cannot mentally differentiate from the junk

4. I don't want to deal with this on top of being sad they're dead, I'd rather do it while I'm still annoyed with them

50TB isn't even that expensive on a HDD! Couple hundred to a thousand bucks! How much were they paying for that much storage?

You absolutely would not rather live in a tent. Living in a tent really sucks.

They needed research for that?

I'll tell them on their death bed that I will totally sell their used figurines for 40 bajillion and that this is a reasonable price.

This is so fucking true

It shows me they have no idea how to check the comps. Some eBay sellers will be delusional about their items or will list something for an inflated price just for the outrage views, that doesn't mean it's ever sold for that price. You've got to check the most recent sold listings and check to see how many sold recently.

DEI is what companies use to pacify wronged employees who belong to minority groups. "We're not discriminating against you because we have this corporate slop to point at" kind of deal. In my experience anyway. The backlash against DEI just makes it look more legitimate as an anti-discrimination effort.

The company is going to fuck people over whether said people are pro or anti DEI. They just want your labor and your money.

Yeah that's why I'm putting the pressure on now, while they're all still breathing on their own.

I'm sorry but sometimes you've got to lie to them.

If they have something like gold-plated silverware or jewelry you can be more honest. You've still got to lie and tell them it sold for slightly more than it really sold for (they will bitch and moan anyway, wanting a super inflated price, but still), and give them a cut of what you got for it.

But if it's something stupid like furniture nobody wants, or figurines, for dishware, you've got to lie to their faces and tell them you needed the money for credit card debt. That is the only way they're going to stop tripping over their hoarded stuff and getting rescued by the fire department. "Please grandma give me this massive hoard of plates you have packed in cardboard in boxes all over the floor, I need it to pay off my non existent credit cards" and then throw that shit in the trash.

I poisoned myself with these once, so I can't drink them anymore.

Oh I'm selling mine before my next birthday for sure. This won't be me when I'm old! I only had 3 of them, but that is too many.

Holy shit...

Orion browser and DuckDuckGo browser are really good on iPhone. Orion can use extensions and DuckDuckGo blocks Youtube ads.

I'm thinking about GrapheneOS, but I've heard it can be a pain. I use a VoIP number so I could just switch to a tablet, iPad is cheaper than iPhone anyway.

This is a cool design, do you mind if I steal it and draw it or make it in photoshop?
