If you sorted out the methodology one person could staff a changeless truck, you start giving change thats a lot of time.

The biggest bottleneck on both of them these days is getting the heat away from the cpu and into the cooler fast enough. Unless you’re de-lidding your cpu, using a peltier or some other lower than ambient powered cooling theres probably a negligible amount in it.

This is the same sort of shit my 60yo aunt posts on facebook.

This is the kicker. They are a pretty good solution now, but they could be amazing.

At least in my country they need to hammer out a consistent set of rules and laws regarding their use. Last time I checked the vast majority of them are effectively illegal because under current laws they are too powerful to be considered an assisted pushbike, you cant register them as a roadgoing vehicle because they dont have indicators and brake lights and you cant ride them on the footpath because riding on the footpath is against the law.

Which puts them in that lovely legal space of “Does a cop want to fuck with me today?” Fortunately our police tend to be pretty cool on the subject because they know that technically taking it out of your house is illegal which is dumb.

Lets be real here, the “Kid” is 17.

Now I dont know what a healthy father/son relationship looks like because I never had one but it seems to me that knowing “Dad likes blondes with big tits” might be slightly less scarring than being left entirely to your own devices with no oversight and going down a rabbit hole of xvideos fetish porn.

Theres 2 kinds of men in the world. Those that have beaten their dick, and fucking liars. Maybe this shit is weird and creepy, and maybe they have had honest and open discussions about sex and he is trying to give his son healthy attitudes towards it.

Ive told my daughter “Always be nice to the quiet ones and the weird ones. Be nice and be friendly, the extroverts of the world will be fine on their own.”

Its really creepy and intrusive. But at the same time, I can find really fucked up porn with literally zero effort.

I mean, if your kid has terrabytes of rough incest bdsm porn people will ask why you werent monitoring their internet use, but monitoring them like this feels like a different kind of weird.

Then you look for the other person at the party standing there back to the wall looking like a deer in headlights and make friends or at least form a D&D group.

And also less likely to be married or in a long term relationship, have a baby momma/daddy or be a hopeless deadbeat who cant keep a job… yet.

It isnt fish in a barrel, its a barrel full of fish.

How many times do I have to qualify that I dont think this is someone who is legit?

Personal Assistants exist so that people who have the means (probably not this guy) dont have to do mundane shit like remember to set alarms and if they are willing to adequately compensate someone for that level of work (which this twit isnt) then go for it.

If I won the lottery, Id have a housekeeper and a lawn guy because although I now dont have anything better to do, I still dont want to do that shit.

If someone wants to offer me $200k a year to handle all his mundane shit and water his bonsai with EXACTLY 30ml of water every 2 days my response would be “Tap, filtered or demineralised?” not “why dont you do it your fucking self?”

I once had a boss who went into HR and asked “How do I fire a useless fucking dyke” not realising the HR lady was in fact a lesbian.

Now, the “dyke” was actually fucking useless but she wasnt the one who got fired that week.

Its not about the cost, its about sending a message.

Ok lets just set aside that this particular job listing is bullshit.

Hypothetically if your rich and travel alot for work its not unreasonable that you might not have time to find a gym and a trainer yourself. Organising the meals isnt unreasonable, if by that you mean finding a chef, making sure the hotels menu is sufficient and so on.

The bed time one sounds like B.S but if you’re the kind of person who gets caught up on projects and then realises its 3am, its not ridiculous either.

Like I said, Im pretty sure this listing is for an absolutely insane person. But at least it sets clear expectations.

It mostly reads as “extreme” but fair enough for a very well paid PA with a company credit card until you get to the compensation. Then its idiotic.

This is a job description for 2 people making $100,000 each. Or one insane person who wants to make $200k.

I was there, I seent it!

Nobody ever got Dysentery or Cholera from poop flavored chocolate.

Also who TF sits down to a big bowl of coleslaw? Its a side dish. You pair it with shit.

Julienne apple slaw and spicy pulled pork.

Candied pinapple slaw and jerk chicken.

Elevate your cullinary game folks.

In Australia the limit is 4 per year before you have to apply for a motor vehicle traders licence, but thats per person. The official paperwork on a few of mine may or may not have have had my flatmates details.

Im curious as to how they figure out the difference between title flipping and just some guy selling a car.

I flipped cars for a few years. Im a pretty good diy mechanic.

The amount of people who cant be bothered scraping off stickers, and giving a car a good detail astounds me. Take the car home, wash it thoroughly, detail the engine bay and interior, and if you have the skills change the oil, air filter and coolant. Those were usually good for a few hundred per flip but the bar to entry is low, anyone can do that.

Also buying cars with 4 steel wheels with bald tyres and finding a set of cheap alloy wheels with good tyres that someone was flogging off were also a good flip if you could find the wheels and tyres cheap and negotiate the car down. “Mate a set of tyres is $600” when you can find a legal set on nicer wheels for $200.

The best ones were nice cars with 1 big problem, “needs a new clutch” or “blown head gasket” made a few grand off those usually because I could spend as long as I needed to to do the job on the cheap by myself.

Its a $10,000 fine if you get caught de-catting a car.

Also we have the whole defect notice system, which I’m pretty sure the US doesnt have. We actually hold the end user accountable.
