Pretty sure it's Alaska. Sub Pop is Seattle based, as is Alaska, and that looks like your average dude in Seattle TBH

The answer is so simple, they're all fucking morons.

Because BMW signals are different. Tiny tap gets you three blinks and goes off (more standard now). Pushing a direction turns them on, and unlike other cars you push the same direction again to disengage. This way you never accidentally push too far and do the opposite signal.

I definitely prefer the BMW signal to any other vehicles I've driven, but as a BMW driver I've learned that when you signal people will aggressively close gaps. I still signal but take the space almost instantly because I know 90% of drivers will try to block me out.

I'm making a statement about companies in general. People are just so willing to bend over and take it. In my mind people used to have more gumption, but I'm probably overestimating how much was individuals vs how the media portrayed things.

Feels like if Upton Sinclair released "the jungle" today we'd all collectively say "oh well, guess we're eating rats and formaldehyde."

So many people don't understand this at all. China is still the same as when the tanks were rolling over college students.

There's more and more people who feel just like you do. I'm so exhausted of all these companies being predatory and anti consumer. I'm the type to stand my ground and abstain or find alternatives, but it feels like there's 5 people who don't care and 4 people who will just let it go for every person willing to boycott bullshit.

More like most CEOs are fucking dumb. They attach to whatever the tech buzzword is. So AI being a buzzword drew them in, then the AI uses other buzzwords? It's like a moth to the flame.

I hardly post on any social media besides here and I still feel violated.

....debt to INCOME ratio. Debt is important here, as is the other half of the equation.

In your example, if the individual's income doubled would they likely be able to secure another loan?

I am not going to respond again, it's not my job to educate you.

As someone who's played a few LLM translated games, it is in fact not good at it. There's a lot of contextual hints that get lost and slang terms tend to confuse it. It does make it close enough where a human that doesn't speak/read the original language could easily finish the translation though or still make it through the game.

Debt to income ratio. Saying income isn't a massive part of loans is just wrong.

Income is a massive part of how they determine if you can repay the loan. I personally have an exceptionally high credit score and about double my home's value in investments. Because of my low reported income, it was a total pain getting a loan.
