I know, I'm going to pay her the money. But also my wallet was in my back pocket. With all my information and cards damage aka gift cards, ID, insurance cards and personal pictures that I can't replace. Jeans were sitting on a chair in a bedroom. I went to check the washer because I had to go and didn't know that she was also washing my jeans. I open and saw all my stuff all over in there. I went to tell her about it and told me that it was my fault. Got really p*** off that she told me that I should not leave nothing in my jeans pocket. Not going to leave my wallet out in the open with someone was drunk or a person I only known for about 3 months.

3 months? She's not your friend... she's your mate. Also, you shouldn't be sleeping at someone's home that you only know for 3 months, much less ask her 100 bucks. That's why s*** happens.

Best title ever.

So true... Now I see it. :D

And then there's the cherry on the top of the cake:

"Jeans were sitting on a chair in a bedroom. I went to check the washer because I had to go..."

LOL

He had to call out his friend.. the jeans

Man up and pay her back. When you take off your pants, there shouldn't be crap left in them. It is irresponsible for you to think that is a safe place for $100 worth of anything.

While it would have been nice if she noticed it and that she should take a look in pockets for that "Just in case". She will respect you for paying her back. She knows about the damage and will pay you back if she can.

When someone loans you $100, you don't change the rules of the contract. She didn't buy them by washing them.

First off.. if you have pictures in your wallet that can't be replaced you are nuts.. at minimum you should have a scan of them. What if they got stolen, or the house caught fire?

Giftcards and such are generally plastic, just like Credit and Debit cards, should be fine, if not take it to those places and explain what happened, most will be happy to help.

Sounds like she was trying to be nice and wash your dirty clothes, and made a mistake.. it happens. She didn't lose a diamond ring or something it's a pair of headphones.. Sure they are $100, but seriously, a friendship over $100, must not be much of one.

    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.

    • This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time

      By Malisk · Posted

      I have this one and it's great, also paired with a Mac. I like the white back aesthetics of it and ability to have all your wireless usb peripherals under a clean lid. 4K @ 120 Hz and 65W usb-c charging is not bad even at its typical price point. The U series is probably better for commercial photo work though; IIRC one reason this one is priced in a different bracket is because it's not calibrated and verified for optimal color accuracy. Not something I think of in daily use, coding, and light gaming though.
