In the recent years, Mamdani was the best thing I've read in news.

This really should be considered fraud.

If I advertise something that never has been and never will be, knowingly, that’s fraud.

Yeah I don't understand why it isn't, or maybe it is but getting anyone to do anything is impossible.

I was against Mandani, but the guy has been coming out with good decisions after good decisions for New Yorkers. Yeah, I don't agree with him in a lot, but New York chose him for specific reasons, and the guy is delivering.

It's been wild watching these do-nothing centrist bastards criticize him as a 'performative' politician, when just in this short period he's been in power, he's delivering on promises and finding practical solutions for things previously thought impossible, like efficient snow removal (and his plan for that was also employed something like 30,000 people temporarily, insane) and a targeted tax on the billionaires.

I am very glad to have been wrong about Mamdani. I thought it was more likely he would go mask off and be another Obama.

What don’t you agree with? He’s been doing exactly what he’s said he wants to do.

When going to a negotiation table you say you want to eat the obscenely rich! Then you negotiate down to just taking their money.

Unless they're the De Wtit brothers.

tbh we could also ~~enslave~~ fine them to years of mandatory community service work (like public gardening and trash pickup)

Who did you support instead? What won you over for them?

a rising fraudulent trend known in the real estate industry as “housefishing,” where landlords use technology to mask property defects.

This is NOT a new thing at all. Even 10 years ago apartments had photo shopped clean walls and you go see it to find shitty dirty/damaged walls.

The stupid ai touch up tools do so much more now. My friends bought a house and all my friendgroup has been helping them fix it and paint it. I needed a reference photo when reinstalling vents so I decided to use the listing to figure out which vent went where.

The fuckass realtor who listed the house removed every single vent with the stupid ai tool. Same with the kitchen, there was no sink in the photos. Like what are we doing

Yeah it used to take work but now websites make it easy with a button

[-] BeKindRewind@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

True. The issue is how prevalent it is now. Any moron can do it now.

[-] x00z@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Iirc, landlords never had any actual photoshopping skills and mostly just used old pictures or simply didn't take pictures of the stuff they didn't want to show.

[-] Cricket@lemmy.zip 12 points 3 days ago

I see, so like catfishing but for homes. SMDH.
