It's a cat and mouse game. They're constantly doing this. Just wait a little while and ublock should find a way around the block.

At the price of current day rugs, you better be excited buying it, because God knows your bank account ain't gonna be.

I'm still at appliance level excited though, But I've never been excited about decorations, so chances are, I'll never hit that stage.

I would hang out with myself, but I feel like it would be a very quiet meeting because we both would just be doing our own thing because unless someone else is spearheading the conversation or as a topic that I'm passionate about, I generally stick to myself anyway.

If you have no driveway, where are you currently parking? Level 1 or 2 chargers just connect to an exterior outlet on the house, so you could just plug it in via cable, so you don't have to have it in a garage. You may risk having someone steal your electrical cables, though, if you don't have some way of locking the cable to your house.

Personally speaking, intentionally not using or collecting credit in this world is dumb. It's shooting yourself in the foot for basically everything longterm wise. This can be from rental agreements to buying a house to buying a car. Anything that needs to show trustworthiness. It's stupid, but it's how this world operates.

I would highly recommend reconsidering your mentality that you've given up on credit.

Also regarding the fraud. Hopefully you are currently mid battle on that because it's not fair for you to have bad credit due to identity fraud and generally when proven that someone stole your identity they reverse all charges(for you) and reverse the credit score that went with it., After all, you never actually spent the money. But that's a long and lengthy battle

I want to clarify, by prepaid I expect that you mean a secured credit card right because prepaid cards you can find at stores are meant to rip you off and charge large fees for usage and charging.

Personally I recommend discover, they offer stupid simple secured cards and after a year or so usually they give your deposit back and upgrade it to a standard credit card

ok that makes more sense, thank you

firmly agree. It's all about the presentation. For example, using what was provided above the act of just saying no was a neutral sentence. Adding afterward that that's just sus changed it from being a neutral to a negative because now you're accusing the other person of being sketchy/sus,without providing the ability to prove otherwise. That I find rude.

I think I agree with most of the replies here saying that the way it was handled was rude. If the opening response to me talking to someone was like that, I would feel like, okay, who pissed in your cheerios and I would have walked off.

Like others have said, there's more to the solution than a yes or no. I personally think "depends on the favor" , is a very appropriate response, or a "maybe what do you want" Or if you're planning on saying no regardless, do it how you did, without calling the other person creepy, its just extremly rude to assume someone is a creep while also shutting them down before they can actually talk.

I've read this four times now and I can't comprehend what they're talking about.

So is this going to lower or raise the price? Because it sounds like they're advocating torwards being against low prices? I don't understand

Now that I've read it a second time, it sounds like they're trying to keep the price low and it backfired because now it sounds like they've lost market share which is causing the price to recoil downward again?

Wait, they're making a grounded two? I didn't think that game would be valid for a sequal. I wonder what they will change/introduce

So far the mounts sounds fun!

I don't foresee Google as in a hardware/phone supplier company ever doing that. The chance of monopoly due to other clauses are too high.

Being said, I do foresee them introducing a way in Android to restrict sideloading completely, so it imitates how Apple has their environment. However, I don't foresee it becoming super popular, especially with how hard the EU is pushing for people to have more freedom with their devices.
