Not specifically Airbnb, but I choose short term apartment rentals (authorized ones, always check the local laws) over hotels because, no, I don’t need housekeeping every fucking day. When I do stay in hotels, I usually keep the “do not disturb” sign on my door for several days before taking it off to get the room serviced.

There aren’t many affordable options when you’re staying mid-term (weeks to a few months) other than short term apartment rentals. And yes, I can keep my place neat and tidy day-to-day, I can take out my own garbage, I can clean my own dishes, I don’t need someone to make my bed for me, etc., etc. Hotels include the cost of daily cleaning and I don’t feel the need to pay for it when I don’t want it and don’t use it.

That said, fuck the added cleaning fee bullshit (for standard usage.) Include it in your price or fuck off.

“Chores” are a mixed bag. Some things are reasonable asks, like if you have a house with a garbage day, and you’re asked to take your garbage to the curb. I’ve heard of some ridiculous ones - that I can’t think of at the moment - but I’ve never encountered anything major myself.

I love that some asshat was triggered by you calling them an asshole and downvoted you.

I feel like this is a reference to something…

and pretty much lose their ass with all the cash grabs?

In 2017 Microsoft’s gaming division had about 9 billion dollars of revenue.

In the last fiscal year (ended in July) that revenue was 23 billion dollars.
Sony: 31 billion dollars
Nintendo: 9 billion dollars? (harder to find numbers)

Microsoft still has 95% of the market share for PC operating systems for gaming: https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam

I think they’re doing okay. Just because they’re not number 1 in consoles doesn’t mean they’re dead. 30 million units sold of Series X/S isn’t exactly losing their ass. And all console fans should cheer for MS to keep going. It’s great that Steam Deck and the like are pushing into the market now, but losing Xbox would be terrible. Price, innovation, and quality would suffer if Sony didn’t have MS nipping at their heels.

It’s not really important history to be fair.

The bigger deal is it can fuck with local economies:

The International Impact of Donated Clothing https://borgenproject.org/the-international-impact-of-donated-clothing/

While exporting used clothing helps repurpose material from the U.S., it can seriously undermine the textile industries of developing countries.

And still harms the environment:

Your used clothing donation may be doing more harm than good https://news.mcmaster.ca/used-clothing-donation-garments-environment/

In addition to clogged drains, each day about 154,000 lbs. of used clothing leaves Accra’s main garment market bound for a dump on the banks of the Korle Lagoon.

You answered your own question. Are you master baiting us?

This is the one I was looking for!

It looks like a translucent black rectangular overlay that happens to line up with the chest to me.

Why they have it I’m not sure…

Or someone compared strings.

Yes, that’s my joke. Using digits in a string list isn’t enough, you have to be smart with your sorting and sort the numbers before you make the string list for your drop down.

1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 2, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 3, 30…

Yes but when you ask a question in no stupid questions you are prompting a discussion. And now we’re discussing how water changes the taste of food for you, and you’re willing to drink sugary, unhealthy drinks with your dinner instead.

It sounds like you’re extremely addicted to sugar.

Sorry, water makes your food taste weird, but energy drinks are just fine?

Other things give you energy…

Watch out for the random cans with alcohol though 😉

Teams wasn’t specifically built for remote work though. It was built for internal chat/messaging, document sharing, planning, etc. It is 100% used internally at MS even when people aren’t working remotely.

I know because people at MS have been complaining about it since a few years before the pandemic.

Your father might be a witch.
