The CEO vs. homeless man one gets even worse if you read the subtext. The homeless man voluntarily surrendered to police the very next day out of remorse. Frankly if that behaviour warrants 15 years in prison, the CEO shouldn't experience even a photon of natural sunlight for the rest of his natural life.
@@Greenstiker8975because the context is missing. The CEO was only involved after the fact and wasn't a key member of the fraud. The ringleader got 35 years. The homeless man, even though he apologized, depending on source, had a prior arrest and therefore got his charge upgraded to armed robbery

6:21 Car exhaust can suffocate a person. If the target (who is clearly an intentional target) has a known condition such as asthma, the perpetrator could be charged with attempted murder. There's at least one example I know of where someone actually, legitimately *killed* someone by 'rolling coal' by a stopped car one night. The occupant was asleep. Never woke up. OP needs to, at the very least, get a restraining order. Carbon monoxide poisoning is very much *not* a 'man up' situation, and if it takes some shiny bracelets that connect in the middle to get it through the numpty's thick skull, so be it.
While this is true, most diesel trucks need to be idled for a few minuts before being driven, ESPECIALLY when it's cold outside, as to warm up the engine and not cause unwanted damsges.
Just remember, folks: bringing up that the food you ordered is not what you got is not making you a Karen. Throwing a huge tantrum about it does make you a Karen.
I have NEVER had a phone where turning down the alarm volume with the external buttons was even possible, especially on accident. If that's a thing some phones genuinely do, that's absolutely stupid
Androids let you do this if you go directly into the settings (not the buttons ik) or if you press the buttons, and then press the 3 dots that pop up under the display, it opens up the settings options that allow you to adjust the sliders. Either way, the too low volume is entirely that person's fault for not checking ahead of time, especially if it's for an important alarm.
I don't think any phone does that but Pixel phones (and possibly other Android phones) have been having an issue lately where the alarm volume turns down on its own.
8:07 that's not a first world problem man. that's a something people have the right to be mad about. for example: i work part time at $18/h. the past two weeks, i got 17 hours a week. before taxes that is $310. a 70 dollar charge is over 23% of what i made in a week.
Yeah, my prior landlord privately owned and managed our apartment complex. She contracted it out to a property management company because she was struggling with resource management. For over 4 years we paid by CashApp for our rent... the property management company transitioned bill pay to an online portal with a $10 (super low but still stupid) convenience fee on top of the $1725 per month payment. So glad I bought a house (i found out when I talked to the bank we qualified.)

If you send the landlord a check, he gets the full amount of the rent due. If you pay online with a credit card, the landlord is charged a fee of 2 1/2% to 3 1/2%. If your rent is $2500, the credit card fees amount to $62-$87. Of course he needs to charge you for that so he will get the full amount of the rent. (check the video again - he was paying by card). The convenience is for you, not the property owner.

@@rapogirl1391 Perhaps - but he/she owns the property. They don't owe you anything let alone a place to live. If you don't want to pay rent buy the property yourself. I get that is very difficult.

Again... why I don't by Apple products. Im sure they haven't caught up to Android's super complicated "Alarm volume is seperate" technology. And if they have, they're going to charge you extra to use it.
@@drewerydreambot2451as an Apple user, I at least know there’s two separate volumes on IPhone - the normal one you change with the buttons, and a “ringer” one that also applies to alarms. As far as I’m aware you can’t set the level of each individual alarm itself, though, and it’s in settings, not clock.
We need the old-timey movie land lords back. The ones that bang on your door and go "Heeey, when ya gonna pay da rent, ya bum?" and then you just give it to them in a burlap sack with a dollar sign on it.
@@PrototypeSpaceMonkey that honestly sounds more convenient. Plus if the landlord is there and there's something wrong in the apartment you can just show him.
For the CEO vs Homeless man, at least the homeless man gets to have free food, hygiene and a warm bed for the next 15 years. In my opinion I think it was deliberate because $100 wouldn't have got him off the street
I think the last word might be “unknown" without the k. And through the other three words on the top row. It's probably "upper respiratory tract infection"
4:53 That was written either by the Swedish Chef or Pyro from TF2. 6:55 If a landlord tried that shit with me, I would first verify whether they accept cash in the office as a form of payment. I would then pay with nothing but pennies. Until they remove this obscene charge.
@@lulu111_the_cool Which a HUGE number of people do. It's a matter of convenience. It would be a pain to have to worry about keeping enough cash on hand all the time and writing a check is just a pain.
I suspect that it's at least equally likely that the ring OP bought might actually have been "worth" what he paid, and that AliExpress just stole the Etsy shop's photo and would have sent him some bent pipe cleaner crap if he had ordered it from them. Not saying that's what happened, just saying that it DOES happen like, a lot. Like all the time. Especially with clothing, so it wouldn't surprise me in the least for it to happen with jewelry.
Hasn’t Shein done the same a few times? I know that Amazon sells a lot of fan art that is so obviously stolen, especially in those packs of like 100 stickers.
It's possible, but 98% of jewellery on Etsy is wholesale from China, purported to be 'handmade', and sold with a 2000% mark-up. Almost certain the Etsy seller bought the rings wholesale and is lying about them being 'handmade' just because it's Etsy.
12:50 If I remember right, the CEO got a reduced sentence as they assisted in the fraud network which lead to other arrests while the homeless man was a repeat offender that would increase the penalties each time they did it. This story comes up every now and then without full context.
I would have been very tempted to tell that guy messaging about the project due tomorrow that it wasn’t done so maybe he can spend all night trying to put something together
4:45 so Damien got us to 'Upper [something] [something] infection' and I have managed to decipher 'respiratory' (which I was sure they'd misspelt but that third letter must be an s) I keep thinking first word on the second line is pnumonia? which would make sense with upper respiratory [something] infection. this is based on the first letter looking like the Ps in 'upper' and absolutely nothing else.
I think reading it that the first line is "upper respiratory tract infection", also fairly sure the last bit of the second line is "w n mouth", as in shorthand for within mouth. But I found the other parts of the second line impossible to decipher.
@@CrowMaiden ok guys after consulting some friends in residency and a pharmacy tech, we have decided it says bronchitis or pneumonia (my vote is bronchitis), asthma, and lawnmower
1:33 - Yes that is infuriating! What's also infuriating is that my husband got me a new Samsung Galaxy phone, and there is no way to choose an alert sound for text messages only, whenever I went to change the sound that plays for getting a text, it changed it to make that sound for ALL alerts. This is annoying as f*ck because when the phone notifies me about something that I literally could not care less about that same sound plays, so I'm thinking I got a text but nope it's just the stupid "smart phone" telling me to update an app that I don't even use or something else equally stupid. My ancient iPhone I got years ago from a friend has settings that allow me to choose different sounds for everything, when a timer goes off, when an alarm goes off, a text, a call, a f*cking email, I can pick different sounds for all of them. This is just ridiculous! 🤬
Our property management has forced us to pay online and then is charging us a processing fee on top of the processing fee that the payment processor charges
check your local tenant's laws and see if a tenant's union has been formed near you. on the surface it may unfortunately seem legal but if you dig you may find the opposite if you dig a bit deeper
@RedKobalt oh, it technically is legal. My lawyers have gone around and around with them because they insist on "interpreting" laws to their own benefit and not how they're written. We've already lost that fight, they've advised me to deal with it.
@@Ducky69247 I'm sorry that's bullshit. Sucks how interpreting them one way = how its actually meant to be interpreted and can't be fought on the technicality instead of it being read like how it was probably meant to be interpreted
@RedKobalt that's the thing though, it shouldn't be up to interpretation. But that's exactly what judges do, and then precedent is set, no matter the actual wording of the law.
Wait, is your volume not standardly decoupled into media, call, ring, notification and alarm?! That's built in for me, how and why do you not have that!?
11:54 If that is a coin from France, it's very likely it's not used anymore. However it could also be from somewhere else which speaks French and uses French symbols, but I'd bet it's not legal tender anywhere. Though it does look fairly gold. Check that, just to be sure.
That's a 20 franc coin. The franc was the universal French currency until the switch to the euro, so it would no longer be accepted. The coin was made of 90% pure gold according to Google.
1:20 my alarm is OBNOXIOUS. It was originally designed as a temperature warning (think "PAY ATTENTION IDIOT, YOUR PAN IS RED HOT!") for an electronic stove control system, and it goes "DINGDING DINGDING DINGDING!" loud enough that I can hear it from another room, even at the lowest volume step. I get this notification every day.
The college I went to applied a 5% "convenience fee" to tuition payments if you paid with a credit card instead of paying with cash or a check on top of another fee they charged if you opted to split what you owed into four payments per semester. This was as of 2021.
About the rent fee thing, does the US not have something like SEPA mandates? Aka, you allow your landlord to collect the money from your bank account. And before anyone comments "but then they could pull as much money as they want", in theory they can, but you have a 60 day timeframe for disputing unjustified/too high withdrawals and your bank automatically handles the charge-back.
That’s the way everyone pays their bills here in Sweden, and you choose if you want to pay it manually or for it to be payed automatically. I haven’t paid the regular monthly bills (except my phone bill because for some reason they didn’t offer that when I got it) and even that is sent as an electronic bill to my bank. Hell, we even have an electronic mailbox service to waste less paper. It’s bizarre to me just how many fees the US seems to let you get away with in some places (and the fact that it isn’t a law for the whole country).
I find that “working three weeks straight” one more extremely infuriating than “mildly.” But maybe that’s just me; I had a boss in the past who would frequently text me while I was asleep saying that she needed me to work a shift I wasn’t previously scheduled for, then would put me on the schedule without waiting for me to respond and get angry with me if I said I couldn’t do it. I ended up being forced to cancel so many plans and appointments because she absolutely would not take no for an answer and I wasn’t at a place where I could afford to lose my job. I do not miss that place. On a funnier note: The candles with the dry grass and leaves is amusing to me, because I play a lot of The Sims 4 and they genuinely have a decor item in one of their packs that looks exactly like that, and it’s named “The Fire Hazard” 😂
I can't help but think that the whole idea about AI is trying to reach the future seen in the Jetsons, where working 4 hours every day is considered overworking
In my country anyone is legally allowed to refuse you if you try to pay in pennies worth more than 20 cents, as well as if you try to pay in other coins aside from dollar coins that add up to more than $5.

8:00 Something I have heard a while ago was that most credit card companies charge a fee to vendors that ends up being a percentage of what they receive through that card in order to be able to accept that card. If I remember correctly, most of that fee is to help the credit card company offset the cashback programs they often have. Because of that, a lot of places that accept credit cards for mostly large purchases add a convenience fee that covers what they owe the credit card company for your payment.
Interesting iOS default alarm app just blares the alarm no matter what, it is interesting what different phone companies have decided on what to do for your alarm. Differences in design decisions and philosophy can be very cool. I would personally prefer to have a more controlled alarm volume, but I don’t care to look for an app to do that but there are iPhone apps that do do it that way, my brother uses an alarm app that forces you to do math to turn it off and it blares like a klaxon alarm, won’t get into the reasons why he does that but I assume it also bypasses the set volume level because app developers can do that, but it has to be approved by Apple, because closed ecosystem, because I am in the US, I hope that alternate App Stores come to the Americas soon on iOS, but I’m not switching to an android to gain access to it because I have a Mac and the Apple ecosystem is really nice for productivity and convenience
Also sorry about the long comment I was just sharing how it is like on Apple devices, because I suspect you are on android because the default on Apple devices is to just blare the alarm, to do otherwise you need an alternate app
In Germany it's illegal to apply an extra charge for specific payment methods. Yes, the store or business will have to pay the fees for using visa or amex or whatever but it's not legal to give this charge to the customer.
11:57 reminder that France is part of Europe. All europeans use Euro. There is no such thing as "french coin", except if it's a Euro coin designed for France. It is not. Edit: Looked through the comment and I am very wrong, bur for a more interesting reason. Said coins are from before Euro and collector worthy.
Not all of them, we still use the Swedish krona. Neither does Denmark, Bulgaria, Czechia, Hungary, Poland or Romania according to the EU site. All but Denmark have apparently committed to switch to it once necessary conditions are fulfilled though. From what I understand they need to be “within the exchange rate mechanism (ERM II)”.

1:50 I had zoned out for a while, and tuned back in right at this moment, so I thought that this was a nice little reward system that a teacher had put together for their students.

4:48 can you imagine working as a doctor for years and suddenly lose all passion for it. Then twitch profession to car bodyshop repair. than constantly reading stuff from random scratches that resemble that signature. 🤣
I still use an ipod touch gen 6 and the song I use for the alarm is a song: Stairway to heaven. Because it's not super loud, it starts of soft and that's the best way to wake up.
14:56 demand refund and maybe report them to weights and measures or whatever they are called, they are the people who enforce standard weight and measure for product, if you advertise a weight it better be that weight, they will do an investigation to find if it is consistent.

I understand people who have a minimum purchase amount with credit cards. The store (or whatever) gets charged a fee whenever someone uses a card. But an extra $70... ffs. I know I lucked out when I got my house. To all of you going through the hell of renting, I feel for you. This crap is insane.
1:41 My Alarm App actually has 'rising volume' as an option for Alarms, so you choose the starting volume and it just increases by like 2-4% the longer you don't turn it off. Issue is i have the entire house awake by the time my sleepy ass has my phone unlocked XD
11:00 After making it clear that I was no-contact with my cousin because he had triggered my partner to have a suicidal episode by having the audacity to tell my nesting partner that she was to blame for my parents' private marital issues, my mom gave him our address to send me a Christmas card. Now that I've moved again, I keep my address a secret from her as well, and only talk to her when I need something. I actually appalled that she still has any contact with him herself, considering he had no business commenting on her personal shit in the first place, let alone blaming someone who actually had nothing to do with any of it.
For the few people saying apple doesn’t let you control Alarm volume separate to main volume - while Apple doesn’t have as much depth to sound settings as android, it does separate main volume and ringtone/alarm volume controls, with the option to combine them.
1:24 they actually are separate. Android has volume values for several separate things. Alarms have their own volume level, there's also media (games, music, etc), call volume of course, ringtone volume, and I think notifications are separate from ringtone. Hell, in recent Android versions you can even set volume per app.
1:38 I keep my iPhone and Apple Watch on silent, I use the Sleep function of the health app to wake me up but it will just buzz my wrist, so I used the clock app alarm function to make my phone make noise when I need to wake up. The new iOS 18 update sleep mode will block alarm app from playing the audible alarm for as long as the phone is in sleep mode, and you have to edit the notifications settings to allow it to ring. Luckily for me I have a habit of waking up before my alarm and noticed that to quote Randy Marsh, “I didn’t hear no bell.”
I think you should be able to add it to the “exception” function, but I don’t know if that will just make it vibrate, haven’t had to use the alarm in a while.
10:20 you got my undivided attention. I must find and get some for myself, especially the grenades. I need those to complete a costume I was making (Demo’s my main, but I love soldier so much)
1:37 I use Alarmy. Simple, pretty bare bones, and your device volume doesn't influence it at all. Also can be set up to where you have to do tasks to get it to shut up. I have mine set to simple math, tho you can make the questions pretty hard.
Alarms do work that way. At least on my phone, there is even a separate volume bar for it on the volume quick setting, so I don't have to go into the actual clock settings to adjust it.
6:19 Time for the potato in the exhaust pipe. 7:39 It’s probably to offset the credit card processing fees, which cost the landlord up to 3.5% (depending on the card).
Convenience fee on rent should be a CREDIT, not an extra cost. Not convinced? Next time pay your rent in quarters and tell them for a small convenience fee of $48 that next time you'll pay with a card instead of a legal tender. How convenient for them!
The group project one is annoying. Just turned in a 50+ page report for an engineering project with three teammates, the only electrical engineer in our group only put stuff into the report the night before and the night that it was due. He missed two sections so that the report could be turned in on time.
My missus has a Samsung S24+ and she leaves her phone on silent all the time, but her alarm will sound anyway, there is literally no excuse for missed alarms

If you don't want to pay rent buy the property yourself. I get that is very difficult. But you either have to pay someone else to own the property or own it yourself. There really aren't many other choices.
1:37 It IS there, you can adjust the volume of every alarm you set
Again... why I don't by Apple products. Im sure they haven't caught up to Android's super complicated "Alarm volume is seperate" technology. And if they have, they're going to charge you extra to use it.

That explain everything i was confused on how he did not know that
@@drewerydreambot2451I mean, Apple does have an alarm volume, it’s just… in the settings? Instead of the clock app
@@drewerydreambot2451as an Apple user, I at least know there’s two separate volumes on IPhone - the normal one you change with the buttons, and a “ringer” one that also applies to alarms.
As far as I’m aware you can’t set the level of each individual alarm itself, though, and it’s in settings, not clock.
70 dollars?! What the fuck? That's like my water and electricity bill.

We need the old-timey movie land lords back. The ones that bang on your door and go "Heeey, when ya gonna pay da rent, ya bum?" and then you just give it to them in a burlap sack with a dollar sign on it.
@@PrototypeSpaceMonkey that honestly sounds more convenient. Plus if the landlord is there and there's something wrong in the apartment you can just show him.
He did use credit. Like why not use debit?😅

They add the fee *because* they can. And *will* keep doing it until someone puts their foot down.
Not likely any time soon.
check your area to see if there's a tenant's union. they're popping up more and more, and for good reason
For the CEO vs Homeless man, at least the homeless man gets to have free food, hygiene and a warm bed for the next 15 years. In my opinion I think it was deliberate because $100 wouldn't have got him off the street
4:42 It says “upper respiratory… infection… … … …”
That’s the best I can do
I think the last word might be “unknown" without the k.
And through the other three words on the top row. It's probably "upper respiratory tract infection"
Last word is actually "controlled"
2:11 I'd rather have gotten nothing at all.
Like, this would have been my last straw if the place was bad enough, and honestly, if it does something like this, that's very likely.

4:53 That was written either by the Swedish Chef or Pyro from TF2.
6:55 If a landlord tried that shit with me, I would first verify whether they accept cash in the office as a form of payment. I would then pay with nothing but pennies. Until they remove this obscene charge.
The charge is because he paid with credit. Which does charge a fee of 1%-3%
@@lulu111_the_cool Yeah, I know. It's a 'convenience fee' the retailers pay to the card company to allow them to accept their cards. It's stupid.
@MrStrikecentral apparently only if you use a credit card.
@@lulu111_the_cool Which a HUGE number of people do. It's a matter of convenience. It would be a pain to have to worry about keeping enough cash on hand all the time and writing a check is just a pain.
3:21 That smells like lawsuits... for manslaughters that is.
I agree
I suspect that it's at least equally likely that the ring OP bought might actually have been "worth" what he paid, and that AliExpress just stole the Etsy shop's photo and would have sent him some bent pipe cleaner crap if he had ordered it from them. Not saying that's what happened, just saying that it DOES happen like, a lot. Like all the time. Especially with clothing, so it wouldn't surprise me in the least for it to happen with jewelry.
I was thinking the same. Very common for pictures to be stolen from legit websites and Etsy shops and reposted on AliExpress and Temu.
came here to say this
Hasn’t Shein done the same a few times? I know that Amazon sells a lot of fan art that is so obviously stolen, especially in those packs of like 100 stickers.
It's possible, but 98% of jewellery on Etsy is wholesale from China, purported to be 'handmade', and sold with a 2000% mark-up. Almost certain the Etsy seller bought the rings wholesale and is lying about them being 'handmade' just because it's Etsy.
this is much more than _mildly infuriating_
This is... _advanced infuriating..._
wildly infuriating
not even close, its *novicely infuriating*
12:50 If I remember right, the CEO got a reduced sentence as they assisted in the fraud network which lead to other arrests while the homeless man was a repeat offender that would increase the penalties each time they did it. This story comes up every now and then without full context.

4:45 so Damien got us to 'Upper [something] [something] infection' and I have managed to decipher 'respiratory' (which I was sure they'd misspelt but that third letter must be an s)
I keep thinking first word on the second line is pnumonia? which would make sense with upper respiratory [something] infection. this is based on the first letter looking like the Ps in 'upper' and absolutely nothing else.
I think reading it that the first line is "upper respiratory tract infection", also fairly sure the last bit of the second line is "w n mouth", as in shorthand for within mouth. But I found the other parts of the second line impossible to decipher.
I believe the top line says upper respiratory sinus infection. Second like says….pconurm rsntma wnmousn?
Pvrnurm nenyma lonmown?
It def says upper respiratory tract infection on the top. Second word on the bottom looks like Dentma and “w/n mouth” makes sense.
You probably are looking for a word "pulmonary"
@@CrowMaiden ok guys after consulting some friends in residency and a pharmacy tech, we have decided it says bronchitis or pneumonia (my vote is bronchitis), asthma, and lawnmower
1:33 - Yes that is infuriating! What's also infuriating is that my husband got me a new Samsung Galaxy phone, and there is no way to choose an alert sound for text messages only, whenever I went to change the sound that plays for getting a text, it changed it to make that sound for ALL alerts.
This is annoying as f*ck because when the phone notifies me about something that I literally could not care less about that same sound plays, so I'm thinking I got a text but nope it's just the stupid "smart phone" telling me to update an app that I don't even use or something else equally stupid.
My ancient iPhone I got years ago from a friend has settings that allow me to choose different sounds for everything, when a timer goes off, when an alarm goes off, a text, a call, a f*cking email, I can pick different sounds for all of them.
This is just ridiculous! 🤬
Our property management has forced us to pay online and then is charging us a processing fee on top of the processing fee that the payment processor charges
check your local tenant's laws and see if a tenant's union has been formed near you. on the surface it may unfortunately seem legal but if you dig you may find the opposite if you dig a bit deeper
@RedKobalt oh, it technically is legal. My lawyers have gone around and around with them because they insist on "interpreting" laws to their own benefit and not how they're written. We've already lost that fight, they've advised me to deal with it.
@@Ducky69247 I'm sorry that's bullshit. Sucks how interpreting them one way = how its actually meant to be interpreted and can't be fought on the technicality instead of it being read like how it was probably meant to be interpreted
@RedKobalt that's the thing though, it shouldn't be up to interpretation. But that's exactly what judges do, and then precedent is set, no matter the actual wording of the law.
Wait, is your volume not standardly decoupled into media, call, ring, notification and alarm?!
That's built in for me, how and why do you not have that!?
11:54 If that is a coin from France, it's very likely it's not used anymore. However it could also be from somewhere else which speaks French and uses French symbols, but I'd bet it's not legal tender anywhere.
Though it does look fairly gold. Check that, just to be sure.
That's a 20 franc coin. The franc was the universal French currency until the switch to the euro, so it would no longer be accepted. The coin was made of 90% pure gold according to Google.
7:40 i pay my rent directly as bank transfer. I dont know how it normally works in UK. Its my first time not living with landlord.

It is a french coin, BUT...
I think it's a Franc, which we don't use in France anymore.
Worth checking if it has any value thou.
1:20 my alarm is OBNOXIOUS. It was originally designed as a temperature warning (think "PAY ATTENTION IDIOT, YOUR PAN IS RED HOT!") for an electronic stove control system, and it goes "DINGDING DINGDING DINGDING!" loud enough that I can hear it from another room, even at the lowest volume step. I get this notification every day.
The college I went to applied a 5% "convenience fee" to tuition payments if you paid with a credit card instead of paying with cash or a check on top of another fee they charged if you opted to split what you owed into four payments per semester. This was as of 2021.

GET OUT-
About the rent fee thing, does the US not have something like SEPA mandates? Aka, you allow your landlord to collect the money from your bank account.
And before anyone comments "but then they could pull as much money as they want", in theory they can, but you have a 60 day timeframe for disputing unjustified/too high withdrawals and your bank automatically handles the charge-back.
Depends on the local laws. Some forbid any fees at all. Some allow them as long as there is a fee free way to pay. Some don't care.
That’s the way everyone pays their bills here in Sweden, and you choose if you want to pay it manually or for it to be payed automatically. I haven’t paid the regular monthly bills (except my phone bill because for some reason they didn’t offer that when I got it) and even that is sent as an electronic bill to my bank. Hell, we even have an electronic mailbox service to waste less paper. It’s bizarre to me just how many fees the US seems to let you get away with in some places (and the fact that it isn’t a law for the whole country).
I find that “working three weeks straight” one more extremely infuriating than “mildly.” But maybe that’s just me; I had a boss in the past who would frequently text me while I was asleep saying that she needed me to work a shift I wasn’t previously scheduled for, then would put me on the schedule without waiting for me to respond and get angry with me if I said I couldn’t do it. I ended up being forced to cancel so many plans and appointments because she absolutely would not take no for an answer and I wasn’t at a place where I could afford to lose my job. I do not miss that place.
On a funnier note: The candles with the dry grass and leaves is amusing to me, because I play a lot of The Sims 4 and they genuinely have a decor item in one of their packs that looks exactly like that, and it’s named “The Fire Hazard” 😂
I can't help but think that the whole idea about AI is trying to reach the future seen in the Jetsons, where working 4 hours every day is considered overworking
7:17 Next time, drop off bags of pennies for your rent.
In my country anyone is legally allowed to refuse you if you try to pay in pennies worth more than 20 cents, as well as if you try to pay in other coins aside from dollar coins that add up to more than $5.
We had an indestructible dog toy, besides a couple of tennis balls it’s the only toy my dog has have broken.
7:31 give the managers the rent in pennies until they remove the fee. They can’t complain because it’s still rent :)

4:00 Candles can flare up. Yep, there is a damn good reason you don't leave the room with them burning even without the extra tinder hanging around.
8:00 Something I have heard a while ago was that most credit card companies charge a fee to vendors that ends up being a percentage of what they receive through that card in order to be able to accept that card. If I remember correctly, most of that fee is to help the credit card company offset the cashback programs they often have. Because of that, a lot of places that accept credit cards for mostly large purchases add a convenience fee that covers what they owe the credit card company for your payment.
1:27 yes, that does exist, my phone has that feature and its very useful.
Interesting iOS default alarm app just blares the alarm no matter what, it is interesting what different phone companies have decided on what to do for your alarm. Differences in design decisions and philosophy can be very cool. I would personally prefer to have a more controlled alarm volume, but I don’t care to look for an app to do that but there are iPhone apps that do do it that way, my brother uses an alarm app that forces you to do math to turn it off and it blares like a klaxon alarm, won’t get into the reasons why he does that but I assume it also bypasses the set volume level because app developers can do that, but it has to be approved by Apple, because closed ecosystem, because I am in the US, I hope that alternate App Stores come to the Americas soon on iOS, but I’m not switching to an android to gain access to it because I have a Mac and the Apple ecosystem is really nice for productivity and convenience
Also sorry about the long comment I was just sharing how it is like on Apple devices, because I suspect you are on android because the default on Apple devices is to just blare the alarm, to do otherwise you need an alternate app
My rent app only takes a $1 fee, and that's just a processing fee. My landlord's a cool dude.
1:41 on samsung it is seperate, the app allows you to set volume of each alarm and jt isnt affected by your phones volume.
You can actually get the ring seller in trouble with Etsy for that AliExpress stunt.
In Germany it's illegal to apply an extra charge for specific payment methods.
Yes, the store or business will have to pay the fees for using visa or amex or whatever but it's not legal to give this charge to the customer.

Said coins are from before Euro and collector worthy.
it appears to be a 20 franc gold coin minted in 1914 - if it's genuine, it'll be worth a lot of money

Not all of them, we still use the Swedish krona. Neither does Denmark, Bulgaria, Czechia, Hungary, Poland or Romania according to the EU site. All but Denmark have apparently committed to switch to it once necessary conditions are fulfilled though. From what I understand they need to be “within the exchange rate mechanism (ERM II)”.

11:00 After making it clear that I was no-contact with my cousin because he had triggered my partner to have a suicidal episode by having the audacity to tell my nesting partner that she was to blame for my parents' private marital issues, my mom gave him our address to send me a Christmas card. Now that I've moved again, I keep my address a secret from her as well, and only talk to her when I need something. I actually appalled that she still has any contact with him herself, considering he had no business commenting on her personal shit in the first place, let alone blaming someone who actually had nothing to do with any of it.

For the few people saying apple doesn’t let you control Alarm volume separate to main volume - while Apple doesn’t have as much depth to sound settings as android, it does separate main volume and ringtone/alarm volume controls, with the option to combine them.
1:24 they actually are separate. Android has volume values for several separate things. Alarms have their own volume level, there's also media (games, music, etc), call volume of course, ringtone volume, and I think notifications are separate from ringtone. Hell, in recent Android versions you can even set volume per app.

1:38 I keep my iPhone and Apple Watch on silent, I use the Sleep function of the health app to wake me up but it will just buzz my wrist, so I used the clock app alarm function to make my phone make noise when I need to wake up.
The new iOS 18 update sleep mode will block alarm app from playing the audible alarm for as long as the phone is in sleep mode, and you have to edit the notifications settings to allow it to ring.
Luckily for me I have a habit of waking up before my alarm and noticed that to quote Randy Marsh, “I didn’t hear no bell.”
I think you should be able to add it to the “exception” function, but I don’t know if that will just make it vibrate, haven’t had to use the alarm in a while.
Fun fact: iOS's silent switch sometimes applies to alarms.
This is why I have an actual alarm clock. It hasn't failed me.

Alarms do work that way. At least on my phone, there is even a separate volume bar for it on the volume quick setting, so I don't have to go into the actual clock settings to adjust it.
