01:54 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], There's risk either way.

01:54 DaemonFC; With cash you take the full force of inflation and someone may mug you or break in and find it.

01:54 schestowitz[TR]; yes

01:54 DaemonFC; With banks, you get interest and the guy who breaks into your apartment won't get it. But there's risks to the banking system.

01:55 DaemonFC; With CDs, I can just sit there earning 5% for the next year and have it deposit the interest payments into my other account, which I might choose to just turn around and put into more CDs.

01:55 DaemonFC; Or I might not.

01:56 DaemonFC; The bank makes money on the difference between what it pays me for the CD and what it loans the money out at, but the government backstops my risk with FDIC insurance.

01:56 DaemonFC; So it's basically government-subsidized risk.

01:57 *techrights-news has quit (readQ exceeded (read too many bytes without terminating newline))

01:57 DaemonFC; Depositors are only going to deposit and take the risk if the risk goes away because of the insurance.,

01:57 DaemonFC; So theoretically, you may as well say it's a "risk-free" bond.

01:57 DaemonFC; Because the government takes it over if the bank fails and lets you back into your account on Monday.

01:58 *techrights-news (~techrights-news@rbnv8qskr8rgw.irc) has joined #techrights

01:58 DaemonFC; Biden can call SVB "not a bailout" but it costs everyone who uses the banks money.

01:59 DaemonFC; Because the banks will have to pay higher insurance premiums, which means they'll lower the interest they offer you.

2 AM, April 4

02:00 DaemonFC; So the time to lock in these high interest rates on the CDs is now because they will lower them to account for those higher insurance premiums due to Biden raiding the fund to pay out millionaires in California who put money into uninsured accounts.

02:02 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], That creates more risk for the bank if everyone behaves like me.

02:02 DaemonFC; They can't lower the rate on the CD unless you close it early.

02:02 DaemonFC; Thankfully for them most people aren't very smart and don't see what's going on.

03:59 DaemonFC; They act like Russia does better.

03:59 DaemonFC; In fact, Russia doesn't care about any sort of "fitness".

03:59 DaemonFC; They send people over there in all sorts of condition because they're going to die anyway.

04:00 DaemonFC; Probably 70% of the Russians in Ukraine wouldn't be physically or mentally acceptable for the US Army.

04:00 DaemonFC; If not more.

04:00 DaemonFC; Even in a crisis.

04:00 XRevan86; DaemonFC: Actually, they send whoever the conscription office managed to catch.

04:01 XRevan86; It was not deliberate but it was acceptable.

04:01 DaemonFC; So how do you duck the conscription office?

04:01 DaemonFC; Go there in a dress or something?

04:01 XRevan86; During mobilisation a lot of the ill people voluntarily went to the conscription office to tell them how wrong they would be to mobilise them.

04:01 DaemonFC; Pull a Ted Nugent on the draft board. Stop bathing and go in there in shit?

04:02 XRevan86; So now they're all mobilised first and foremost

04:05 DaemonFC; I'm ineligible for the draft, for so many reasons.

04:05 XRevan86; It's also important not to accept the draft paper, or else the law will grab one by the balls.

04:05 DaemonFC; But first of all, I'm too old to draft now. They would have to change the law first.

18:09 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I have a theory about the Chaff Bots (Bard, Bing Chat). They're not actually designed to make money.

18:10 DaemonFC; They're designed to up the stock price for several months while the execs have "regularly scheduled stock trades" going through.

18:10 schestowitz[TR]; more like psyops

18:16 DaemonFC; The federal government has exclusive jurisdiction over national parks. State laws do not apply. The Constitution requires that criminal trials in federal court take place in the district court where the crime occurred. They must use a jury that is composed of the people who live in the District.

18:18 DaemonFC; The problem is that this area is in Idaho (mostly) and has no population because the entire area of Yellowstone is in the jurisdiction of a Wyoming federal court.

18:19 DaemonFC; So if you demand a jury, they can't give you one, and since you have the right to a jury trial, they can't proceed with the trial.

18:20 DaemonFC; They could indict you, but they could never proceed with the trial unless Congress changes the boundaries of the district. Then you might have other legal arguments because of the change in law.

18:21 DaemonFC; The closest anyone has come to testing this was a guy who was on the Wyoming side and illegally hunted in Yellowstone.

18:22 DaemonFC; There are people living there, but not enough to conveniently call up a jury (due to things like voir dire), so they gave him a lenient plea deal in exchange for his agreement not to use the Zone of Death argument in court.

18:23 DaemonFC; You could try a misdemeanor in federal court in the Zone of Death.

18:23 DaemonFC; Sometimes.

18:23 DaemonFC; It would have to be a low level misdemeanor that can't possibly result in more than 6 months in jail.

18:28 DaemonFC; They increased the price of a soda by 70% and then they ripped out the self-serve fountains. Which would imply you can't get a refill. But you can! You can still ask them for a refill.

18:29 DaemonFC; The profit margin on fountain drinks is the highest of any menu item.

18:29 DaemonFC; It's like one penny of soda syrup, a cup, and yeah.

18:30 DaemonFC; Once you have the cup, a refill might cost them a penny.

18:30 DaemonFC; So we usually won't eat at a place that doesn't have self-serve refill fountains anymore if we're getting drinks.

21:25 DaemonFC; Of which they apparently figure are around 5% of all Russians.

21:25 DaemonFC; The interesting part of this would be where the conscription office would even find them.

21:28 DaemonFC; LOL

21:37 TR Bot; China approves its first MRNA vaccine

21:37 DaemonFC; After saying that mRNA vaccines weren't safe to cover up their shitty Communist vaccines that didn't work at all....

21:38 DaemonFC; People in China were getting like 5 doses of these things and they were still dropping like flies.

21:38 DaemonFC; The only thing that COVID showed is that most ways the government holds people back and makes them suffer are arbitrary and can be undone in an instant.

21:39 DaemonFC; Like all of those "COVID apartments" in Hong Kong that may be torn down now, even in the middle of a housing affordability crisis.

21:39 DaemonFC; We're having one of those great elections MinceR

21:39 DaemonFC; Where a scary red sign that says "VOTE NO" might be all it takes to defeat the town manager initiative.

21:39 DaemonFC; Because people are stupid.

21:40 DaemonFC; The way I see it, there aren't any drawbacks. If it passes, we save a million dollars a year by firing three Aldermen and pay out about $70,000 a year for a new Town Manager position.

21:41 DaemonFC; So that frees up almost $10 million over the next decade (considering interest) that isn't going for corrupt public officials in gerrymandered districts.

21:42 DaemonFC; "80%: Percentage of Chinese citizens who have had Covid-19 at any point, according to the Chinese government.

21:42 DaemonFC; 90%: Percentage of Chinese citizens who have received a Covid-19 vaccine, according to the Chinese government."

21:42 DaemonFC; Great success!

21:42 MinceR; thumbs up

21:42 AdmFubar; no that just means there is $10 mil going to fewer corrupt officials in the next decade

21:43 DaemonFC; I get a clock a'radio! He cannot afford!
