Agreed. It is still a marvelous repository of info

I left when the API changes put third party apps out of business, so I don’t have firsthand experience with it. From what I’ve read here on Lemmy and elsewhere, they’ve just gone off the deep end with automated bans and refusing to properly consider appeals.

One thing I saw that at least some subreddits were doing was to ban anyone using the name “Luigi” in a comment or post, even if they weren’t talking about Luigi Mangione.

My guess is that they chased away all of the good moderators, and what is left is shitty, power-hungry mods and bad automation.

There are communities here on Lemmy that continually talk about these issues with Reddit. Lots of the banned users are ending up here (and with that comes good and bad things).

Lemmy has become a lot less civil over the last several months. It’s been disappointing to see, and I engage a lot less. Reddit banning people like crazy hasn’t helped.

As far as I can recall, there will simply be a note on your credit report that the collection is contested. For the small credit union where I worked, contested or not, you were disqualified for all loans and credit.

I haven’t worked in that industry in 15 years now, but I don’t imagine much has changed.

I hate our credit system and I think it needs to be torn down. It’s predatory and we don’t even attempt to educate people about how it works (or we didn’t when I was in school).

Right, but they can still damage your credit first. Also, lawyers aren’t cheap and your time isn’t free. Better not to take a flippant approach to this.

Do your math again. 4/3 to 5/31 is less than 60 days.

But also you’ll want to go through the rental agreement and your local laws to see if they can force this on you. You may just default to a month-to-month, but you may not.

As a former loan officer, I would caution against leaving unsettled debt even if you’re in the right. They can and will report you to a collection agency because the agency buys that collection amount from the rental company (and hope to get to collect more than they bought the debt for originally).

It doesn’t actually cost the rental company anything, but it will damage your credit (and contrary to popular belief, no collection records just disappear from your credit history). You’ll also then have a harder time finding new housing.

OP, talk to a lawyer.

With both Yuzu and Ryujinx gone, what would you recommend out of the forks?

Man, I feel this. I worked for them twice, and there are certain songs and movies I refuse to experience because of the non-stop looping ads they showed in stores.

Amazing photo! Very beautiful!

You can use uBO on iOS now too. The Kagi search engine people have made a mobile browser (Orion) that supports Firefox and Chrome plugins!

My web browsing experience has drastically improved since I was finally able to get uBO back since my switch away from Android.

And have it’s teeth whitened

“A way out west there was this fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least, that was the handle his lovin’ parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude. Now, Dude, that’s a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn’t make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, like-wise. But then again, maybe that’s why I found the place s’durned innarestin’.”

You can. It’s incredibly generous of you to do that!

You’ll need to know his account number and where the payment gets sent. It might be difficult to get this information quietly though.

Usually you’d want to call the company that is servicing the loan and ask them to calculate a payoff amount as of a specific date. That way when you make your payment, all outstanding interest is paid off as well as the balance.

That company may not give you this information depending upon laws and policies. Since you’re not the person they’re contracted with for the loan, it’s possible that they won’t. I don’t expect that to be the case though.

I used to be a loan officer / underwriter, but I never dealt with student loans which have different laws governing them, so this is the best info I have to share (it’s also been 15 years since I did that work). I used to give payoff amounts all the time to other people and organizations though. People refinance their loans all the time, so it’s very common to give out that payoff calculation when the requester has the account number and name of the loan account holder.

I agree. It’s not a formula for guaranteed success though. See Super Mario Bros. for one example

She’s keeping you on the hook. She also doesn’t sound very stable.

What do you gain from keeping this person around? Never mind her, what’s in this for you personally?

For me, this relationship would have run its course at this point, and I’d move on altogether.

“And this offends you as a Jewish person?”

Speaking of no-talent ass clowns
