Only answering for myself here, but when I already have 10+ lbs of camera gear in my backpack, a huge gaming laptop makes a big difference compared to an ultrabook. And I'm not talking about an excessive amount of gear either. One bo

Conversely, there are way too many Apple haters who don't know or care why someone might make the choice to use a Macbook.

Speak for yourself. In Canada the cheapest threadripper I can find is $2k just for the CPU. No way can I build an entire desktop for that price.

Where are you that it's only $15? It's $60 around here.

Good one. Next you’ll tell me that I’m horribly under compensated for not getting huge amounts of equity when no one in my company gets equity.

Citation needed. Apple is not a monopolist. The judge in the Epic Games suit even said so[0]. It also isn't a public service. It's a private service operated by a private company where you have to pay to play. And part of payin

I realize this is generally an unpopular opinion around these parts but the way I see it we need more government intervention. The government needs to get back into the business of building affordable housing and needs to fund more needs ba

I find live sports are the one thing actually worth subscribing to myself. But then again I enjoy a good hockey, football, or baseball game. I know there are alternative streams but the quality is always poor and they're iffy at best

My “genetic material” is a fucking dumpster fire. I struggle daily with incurable mental illness and I’m also a carrier for several debilitating diseases. I have chosen not to have children and nothing of value will be lost.

Bullshit. There is no guarantee your kids will be there for you in your old age. Just look at all the seniors living in care homes that have no one visiting or sending them presents for Christmas. Perfectly normal parents can raise selfish

How is it a privilege when something like 10% or more of all people to have ever been born never reproduced? Not everyone who doesn’t have kids chose that. Some die before they can. Some are sterile. And some simply never get the chance fo

Unless the state you're living in has made it illegal to transport someone across state lines for the purposes of getting an abortion. It has been done in a few places.

I know things are tough right now but it will get better. Prices won't stay this high forever. They always come down eventually. Be patient and save your money. You'll find something when the time is right. I gave up on a hou

You realize those areas are nowhere close to the jobs? If you're looking for a job in Toronto, the closest place with an actual house under $450k is likely Windsor, which is around five hours away. Across southern Ontario right now t

Spoken like someone who doesn't have the first clue what things are like elsewhere. Housing in Canada is horrendously expensive and prices are going up far faster than anyone could possibly save money. The median house price is now s

What if you want to live in an area with employment opportunities? I grew up in a small town in British Columbia. You can't even get a bachelor condo for $50-$80k there. There is nothing available for that price. There's also

Doubled if you're lucky. I checked the price history on the condo I bought last year. It has doubled in price since the pandemic started and more like tripled since 2014. Of course I'm living in a booming area but my salary sur

It's flat out impossible to buy a house or even condo on that kind of salary in southern Ontario without significant outside financial assistance. I bought my condo in Oct 2021. Six months later it has appreciated in value by $200,00

Failing any interview is a real kick in the balls, particularly if you happen to be out of work at the time. But somewhere down the road you're going to laugh at the fact that you failed telling them about yourself. Like they would k
