The Daily Rant Thread

Been using Amazon for over thirty years now, with just a handful of mishaps that were corrected quick and efficiently. Yes they can be annoying, but these days it would be hard to find a business that does the same volume with better results. Most of Amazon's problems are from second hand dealers.

It always seems when the thermometer goes over 90°, Mrs. X has an inclination to bake sweets with the oven

Don't mention it to her, but the snack bars are delicious!

I find myself not planning meals very well according to the weather and end up baking something on the hottest days for some reason. The air fryer has helped because a lot of the stuff I used to bake I now cook in it.

Not ranting. Maybe celebrating. Got two brand new 245/45/20 tires for my car, shipping to me for $207. Fullway HP108 tires. Ones on it were $125 each, Desert Hawks.

Amazon explained to me that the hub for my truck wasn't warranteed. It was brand new, never installed, rust or some other chunks inside the bearing.
I haven't ordered a single thing from Amazon since. That was over 10 years ago.
Crap customer service after a company gets my money PISSES ME OFF.

Right to repair issues are TOTAL BULL SHOT!!! MY car, MY tools, get the F out of MY way!
MY Dodge is so old I don't think I could find a mechanic who actually knows how to fix it anyway.

The corporate delusion of "our" tech.
"Our" car, phone, tv, desktop etc...so YOUR data is no longer private.

Politics.

Done for now. Lol!

That's the opposite of my problem, those fake positive reviews that you often see for car dealerships!

But heres my rant, what exactly am I paying $300 for here? Toy shocks? Bushings? Generic bodyshell?

I don't know why they didn't just make a metric version of the old RC10TC5, the rear motor RC10T5 was practically just a metric T4 with fresh molds. Also for $40 more you can get a Pro4 SC10 with a brushless motor, threaded oil filled shocks, adjustable turnbuckles, and ball bearing.

On top of that, thats a short course truck so its much more versatile.

I feel like this forum just turned into a young teenage girls' forum with all these quick access emojis added.
What's the "check mark" emoji supposed to be for?

 

[332_RC]

Agree. But it's cool. Having different ones.

We coulda just added the puke emoji and had all we need. I kinda feel it's going to be too cluttered now, but that's just me.

Yes. I think a "confused" emoji would also be used frequently because way too often I have no idea what the h€ll people are typing or trying to say!

Probably. And AI will know you enough to respond for you, so you wouldn't even have to physically do it yourself.
