I make my own and hate store bought. That’s not the point.

“Hummus SHOULD be like this and NOT like that.”

Cool if you like traditional or if that’s your preference or whatever… But people can put olive oil or peppers or beans or whatever they want.

Never seen so much hummus gatekeeping in my life.

Relax bud

You don’t NEED tap to pay. I literally never use it, ever, unless I have a card with a bad chip (happened once).

Forgetting your wallet like a dummy doesn’t mean you NEED tap to pay, it means you need to remember to bring your wallet.

Also, there is nothing you NEED the Costco app for, an org like that can’t lock things behind an app to function because their customer base is too broad, they will inevitably have old people with T9 Nokia bricks still. It might have been the most convenient way to achieve it, but it’s not a requirement - even if that particular sales associate didn’t know how and would have to phone a friend.

All that to say I’m not trying to convince you to use gOS; I fully recognize that security is on one end of the spectrum from convenience, and we all choose where we want to be on that spectrum. But I felt the need to counter your claims… Nobody NEEDS tap to pay smh. If you care about privacy at all you wouldn’t be linking cards to apple or Google, adding yet another layer of giant data collection to some of your most intimate data.

I don’t think you realize what you’re wishing for, which is ok if you didn’t live through it as an adult, but the 2008 housing crash was so much more devastating than you probably realize.

So, so many lives wrecked.

I want to see more housing inventory come to market and see some price corrections for sure, but the scale of crash you’re talking about wishing for, the only reason you could possibly desire it is from stark naivete of a young person who doesn’t understand the scale of the disaster you’re advocating for.

We need more housing inventory, less NIMBY blocking it, and stiff taxes on investment homes that disincentivize people or companies from owning tons of homes.

We want a market correction, not a crash. They’re different.

What? Ok so I’ll ignore how ridiculous that is and just suggest another resource because talking about being depressed and how people will remember you or not in the same sentence is a big red flag for suicidal thoughts.

Calling someone a loser or saying they haven’t accomplished anything is a judgement on someone’s past and present self.

Talking about someone’s bright future is recognition of the fact that they had potential and opportunities that will never be realized.

If you’re thinking about suicide, please call 988 (USA) or an equivalent service in your country. I hope you get well soon.

They’re not the same.

Hiding an unlocked treasure chest in the forest is obscurity. Sure, you might be the only one who knows it’s there at first but eventually someone might come across it.

Having a vault at a bank branch is security - everyone knows there’s a vault there, but you’ll be damned if you’re going to get into it when you’re not authorized.

Good passwords, when implemented correctly, use hashing (one way encryption) to provide security. It’s not obscured, people know you need a password to access the thing (in our example)
