"you need to be passionately rational, be eager and opportunistic and grossly underspend"
are we fucking back to telling millennials that eating avocado toast and starbucks for breakfast is the reason why they can't buy a house in 2025?

it's warren buffet's right hand man talking about the boomer days when he made $300k total from his 13 years of being a lawyer.
$100k in 1970s money is over $850k in today's money adjusted for inflation.
guy was talking about how making your first $1 mil is the hardest part of making money...

There's about 5 supermarkets in the area and I can already see 2 of them closing due to sheer volume of increased theft because those ones are barely holding on financially even without the new facility

seattle has tried this shit before, it ended up with transients hanging around outside the building in downtown seattle screaming at every hour of the day then those screamers trigger other screamers who start having an episode and I avoided those places like he plague

upon hearing it I congratulated him, wished him good luck with the position and commented how nice it was for him to get the job he wanted with almost a 100% pay bump.
Inside I was dying knowing that I've been applying for other positions for so long I don't even know if I'm hireable anymore.

tested out music coming from laptop speakers that was fluctuating at 56b-66db, I went outside the enclosure and closed the enclosure door and the sound level was around 28db-48db.

whisper rooms only manage to cut down sound about 30 dbs anyways so considering that whole enclosure cost about $750 including shipping compared to the around $7k-$12k that I would need to pay for an Isolation pod I think I found a decent middle ground.

honestly it worked about as much as I thought it would, around 20dbs of sound dampening. Keep in mind that the enclosure isn't air tight and I left it that way because I would suffocate in there with no airflow and 2 laptops + 1 monitor. If I did make it more airtight I could cut down sound more

When the new guy used to play music I noised the drum shields actually dampened the music a lot because the places I had the drum shield walls had sound dampened while the places that weren't covered the guys music sounded really loud. So I ordered 7 more drum shields so I can completely enclose.

it's fucking creepy tapping the camera / mic in my room then making passive aggressive posts and upvoting it for me to see when I browse

You know how you know when an IT person is bad at their job? It's when they don't have the ability to google things or read through documentation / SOPs. They don't even have to be smart, they just have to be able to pull up references to complete their tasks

It's surprising the extent of how much everyday humans are wiretapped, watched and spied then their data is used against them and sold to a 3rd party who will use that information against them

...and landlord is back to locking himself into the bathroom again lol... it's my own fucking fault for thinking that anything would change.

I guess landlord or my other roommate said something because now it's quiet, but that even fucking worse because now I'm fucking stressed out that mother fucker is going to wake me up in the middle of the night and I am going to absolutely fucking snap and got absolutely apeshit

Those people are the ones that have the empathy and kindness to make the world a better place and hold society together. A society where those people are pushed out and gone turns into what American politics and Corporate America looks like now

I don't share any walls with anyone, landlord is gone a lot of the times because he also has a house in a different state, buuuuuuut, it's out of my budget and 1.5 times more expensive than what I'm paying now. He showed me the other room that was in my budget and it was meh.

but, the house is old, in the middle of the university district so outside will be noisy with frat kids doing fuccboi shit and house doesn't provide internet. second house is right in the middle of like 8 breweries, It has it own bathroom and a small closet where I can set up a stream room, quiet.

Looked at 1 house that I didn't like, but even then the house is still better than my current living situation. The house had 24/7 quiet hours, cheaper rent, room is bigger, it's on the top floor, better transportation to work, less people sharing the bathroom, not on top of a hill

Like i even fucking offer to contribute $100 for him to get a decent fucking pair of headphones but this mother fucker is beyond fucking selfish.

after all that shit with the other roommate storming out of the house because he cant sleep (he works night shift) and being told to lowered the volume repeatedly not once does this mother fucker use his headphones. He's playing on a desktop PC too.

Mother fucker literally blasts his fucking video games out loud so it sounds like a fucking warzone 24/7 if he isn't blasting his fucking ghetto ass music. He started from Friday night and ended when he landlord told him to stop at 5:00am in the morning when I complained and now he's back blasting

The one reason that I didn't move out earlier was because I was scared that I was going to be stuck in a house where it was noisy as fuck and I'd have to live in constant stress but now that I'm actually living in constant stress because this mother fucker refuses just to headphones on, why be here
