Say I find out my 401k is investing in this. What do I do to get out of the situation? Would I have to completely stop contributing to it (and lose employer matching) or something else?

I do have a 401k but before that I really loved investing on my own and avoiding this stuff. I wish I could have them dump the funds into my own account but obviously that’s not possible.

This is basically me, we’ve been married five years but she had the two dogs (one chihuahua, one mixed chihuahua) since about 2013.

I work from home and am super attached to the dogs. We live in California in a big apartment in a small building so I’ve always got the doors open and they’re happy. I walk them on my lunches and they really do keep me sane.

The one I’m more attached to (despite trying not to play favorites) even plays with me now (even though chihuahuas are typically not playful), and when he wants something we do this weird thing where I keep jabbing my hand at his paw and he does the same to me.

I never wanted pets due to the responsibility but these little guys have totally won me over and I love them to the moon and back!

I found this more wholesome than shitposty

  1. In the back seat of my car in blizzard conditions outside my friend’s house because I’d left at like 2 AM and realized there was far too much snow to make it home. My friend was fast asleep when I came back so I just slept in my car.
  2. Another time I slept in the hallway of my apartment because I was locked out and too exhausted/poor to do anything about it until morning.

Report this at https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/.

Also, because they’re using Bitly for URL obfuscation report it to them at https://bitly.com/pages/trust/report-abuse.

For any of the fake domains you run into report it to both the registrar of the domain as well as the owner of the actual IP address it points to.

I can chill with that

Sure I’ll take the bait: You realize you’re posting to a platform largely hosted on Linux machines likely from a Linux-based or UNIX-based mobile device. 🥴

Save just one Blu-ray backup. 😭 My NAS storage will suddenly be unavailable too or no?

I use Alpine Linux for server-based stuff because it’s so light and the packages are kept up-to-date.

The game where you make a huge assumption and then get pissy when a rather obvious counterpoint is made?

That’s fine with me, there are more productive conservations to be had; I don’t have time to go through 20 rationalizations and justifications anyway. 👋

It’s the uppermost boundary we have access to in this simulation.

Another thing I’ve noticed on Amazon is oftentimes you’ll get the first generation of a product. I bought a smart space heater from there quite some time ago and by the time I’d owned it for a few months it was already unsupported, then six months after that it was impossible to connect to (it lost WiFi and I had no means to reconfigure it).

Had I purchased elsewhere I probably would’ve received the fifth or sixth generation. If I do buy from Amazon now I’m always super picky about details.
