| schestowitz[TR2] | it is not slow | Jan 06 03:41 |
| Isambard_Prince | If someone cheats you, there's no chargeback process. | Jan 06 03:41 |
| Isambard_Prince | There's no fraud protection. | Jan 06 03:41 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | consider all the tinkering you need to do with electronic | Jan 06 03:41 |
| Isambard_Prince | There's no cashback rewards. | Jan 06 03:41 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | it's not just click clack | Jan 06 03:41 |
| Isambard_Prince | Just because UK credit cards are super shitty doesn't mean ours are. | Jan 06 03:41 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | we have debit cards | Jan 06 03:42 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | not credit | Jan 06 03:42 |
| Isambard_Prince | UK credit cards are like half a percent cashback and 44% interest. | Jan 06 03:42 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | unless you think like a yank | Jan 06 03:42 |
| Isambard_Prince | I agree that you shouldn't use something like that. | Jan 06 03:42 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | then you get debt card | Jan 06 03:42 |
| MinceR | orbanistani credit cards are super shitty too | Jan 06 03:42 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | aka "Credit" | Jan 06 03:42 |
| Isambard_Prince | US debit cards might have rewards. | Jan 06 03:42 |
| MinceR | i think AmEx actually left the country years ago | Jan 06 03:42 |
| Isambard_Prince | But you're talking AmEx with half a Membership Reward point per dollar, or Discover which is 1% cash up to $30 of cash per month. | Jan 06 03:42 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-news.tuxmachines.org | Tux Machines — Today in Techrights | Jan 06 03:43 | |
| Isambard_Prince | Out of the proprietary networks, Discover's debit card is the better rewards scheme. | Jan 06 03:43 |
| MinceR | and hardly any place accepted AmEx here even before then | Jan 06 03:43 |
| Isambard_Prince | But credit cards can give you two or three times that. | Jan 06 03:43 |
| MinceR | there's probably only Visa and MasterCard here now | Jan 06 03:43 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | stuff you buy with fraud protection would not accept cash anyway | Jan 06 03:43 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | things that can go wrong | Jan 06 03:43 |
| Isambard_Prince | schestowitz[TR2], The Indian guy that runs the battery store that made me a defective car key and wouldn't return my money is a good example. | Jan 06 03:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | MasterCard went and beat him up for me and got my $100 back and billed him $60 for having to get involved. | Jan 06 03:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | :) | Jan 06 03:44 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Techrights — Over at Tux Machines... | Jan 06 03:44 | |
| Isambard_Prince | He ended up making a harassing phone call to me threatening to call the police. | Jan 06 03:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | I told him "A credit card dispute isn't illegal. Welcome to America." | Jan 06 03:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | And hung up. | Jan 06 03:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | MinceR, ^ | Jan 06 03:44 |
| MinceR | :> | Jan 06 03:45 |
| Isambard_Prince | He hooked up some sort of laptop running Windows 10 to my car. | Jan 06 03:45 |
| Isambard_Prince | And tried to program a key. | Jan 06 03:45 |
| Isambard_Prince | And he ran some program where the key worked one time then didn't work again. | Jan 06 03:45 |
| MinceR | sounds like business as usual in IT | Jan 06 03:46 |
| Isambard_Prince | I ended up having to get a spare key made at a dealer, which wrote a letter to MC for me stating that the key that he made did not work and that there's no right way to make a key without a computer program only dealerships have. | Jan 06 03:46 |
| Isambard_Prince | If I paid the guy cash I never would have seen the money again. | Jan 06 03:47 |
| techrights-news | "Additionally, there's no peaceful moments at home except for maybe after the kids go to bed. They used to take naps when they were smaller, but they don't do that anymore. It's kind of hard to make a good gemcast when kids are screaming in the background!" gemini://kwiecien.us/gemlog/202601052126.gmi | Jan 06 03:47 |
| Isambard_Prince | Or the time I bought a $400 pair of glasses then opened the kitchen cabinet and a percolator fell out on me and broke a lens. | Jan 06 03:47 |
| Isambard_Prince | And AmEx paid to have a new lens put in because it had been less than 90 days. | Jan 06 03:47 |
| Isambard_Prince | That was $150. | Jan 06 03:48 |
| techrights-news | "The Mastodon web interface is so sluggish on a #raspberrypi 4 that I decided to write a quick-and-dirty lightweight CGI script to display just the content and links to media (deliberately avoided embedding previews). Now I can read my Mastodon feeds anywhere in comfort, even on Netsurf or w3m." gemini://tobykurien.com/microblog.gmi | Jan 06 03:48 |

| Isambard_Prince | schestowitz[TR2], I still call it Twitter. | Jan 06 05:22 |
| Isambard_Prince | X is a display server. | Jan 06 05:22 |
| Isambard_Prince | I refuse to ever call it X. | Jan 06 05:22 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | same here | Jan 06 05:22 |
| Isambard_Prince | He even stole the X11 logo. | Jan 06 05:22 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | i was pulling your leg | Jan 06 05:22 |
| Isambard_Prince | schestowitz[TR2], I switched to X11 because the lock screen for kwin_wayland is freezing the computer now. | Jan 06 05:23 |
| Isambard_Prince | It doesn't work worse than kwin_wayland so there's no great need to switch it back unless they decide to actually drop X at some point. | Jan 06 05:23 |
| Isambard_Prince | Which I doubt will be anytime soon. | Jan 06 05:23 |
| Isambard_Prince | schestowitz[TR2], I responded to No Tax On Tips. | Jan 06 05:25 |
| Isambard_Prince | I lowered my tips from 18% to 10% and under that I write "No Tax On Tips...". | Jan 06 05:25 |
| Isambard_Prince | It's just revolting that tips keep getting higher and now they don't even pay tax on them. | Jan 06 05:26 |
| Isambard_Prince | When I was a kid, 10% was a solid tip when you went out to eat. | Jan 06 05:26 |
| Isambard_Prince | Then the standard became 15%, then somewhere it became 18%, then now they want 22%. | Jan 06 05:26 |
| Isambard_Prince | Then the law changed and they don't even owe income tax on it. | Jan 06 05:26 |
| Isambard_Prince | So I just started leaving 10% again. | Jan 06 05:26 |
| Isambard_Prince | If I get the job at the hotel laundry, I have to pay tax on everything. | Jan 06 05:27 |
| Isambard_Prince | But if a server that already makes that much per hour also gets good tips, then potentially half their income in non-taxable. | Jan 06 05:27 |

| Isambard_Prince | Or more than half. | Jan 06 05:28 |
| Isambard_Prince | Why am I leaving someone who already makes more money than me a huge tip? | Jan 06 05:28 |
| Isambard_Prince | schestowitz[TR2], I made an exception to the 10% once since the law changed. | Jan 06 05:28 |
| Isambard_Prince | We went to Outback Steakhouse and the waitress there slipped me an extra 22 ounce beer and didn't charge me for it. | Jan 06 05:29 |
| Isambard_Prince | So she got a really nice tip. | Jan 06 05:29 |
| Isambard_Prince | Tips above 10% should be for outstanding service. | Jan 06 05:30 |
| Isambard_Prince | Restaurant prices are through the roof. | Jan 06 05:31 |
| Isambard_Prince | So a 10% tip is already pretty substantial even without the no tax policy. | Jan 06 05:31 |
| Isambard_Prince | A dinner that was $50 five years ago is like $110 now. | Jan 06 05:32 |
| Isambard_Prince | So if you left a 20% tip on $50, that's $10. If you leave a 10% tip on $110, that's $11. | Jan 06 05:32 |
| Isambard_Prince | So restaurant price hikes are causing tips to go up anyway. | Jan 06 05:32 |
| Isambard_Prince | I'm glad that Illinois decoupled from the no tax on tips federal law. | Jan 06 05:33 |
| Isambard_Prince | Unlike Trump's party, we're still trying to run a state with public services. | Jan 06 05:33 |
| Isambard_Prince | We've got roads, healthcare, police and fire, all kinds of things to run. | Jan 06 05:33 |
| Isambard_Prince | And we can't do that if billions of tax dollars are lost. | Jan 06 05:33 |
| Isambard_Prince | I hate going to places that demand tips where there's no service being provided. | Jan 06 05:35 |
| Isambard_Prince | Like Five Guys or Jimmy Johns or something. | Jan 06 05:35 |
| Isambard_Prince | They make $19 an hour to make sandwiches. You clean up your own table and refill your own drinks. | Jan 06 05:35 |
| Isambard_Prince | Then this fucking tip screen shows up. | Jan 06 05:35 |
| Isambard_Prince | Like $50 for a hamburger restaurant for two people wasn't too much already. | Jan 06 05:35 |
| Isambard_Prince | They want you to donate another $10. | Jan 06 05:36 |

| Isambard_Prince | They should just let you go in, there's the menu, that's what the thing costs. | Jan 06 05:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | Tips are always stressful because human nature is to want to appear generous and "social", especially when other people are looking at you. | Jan 06 05:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | I liked MCL Cafeteria and Laughner's and Jonathan Byrd's cafeteria in Indiana back in the day. | Jan 06 05:45 |
| Isambard_Prince | You went in, you grabbed a tray, you grabbed some silverware and put it on the tray, you told each employee going down the line what you wanted from the offerings that day, you grabbed a dinner roll if you wanted one, and told them what drink you'd like, then paid the cashier, and took a seat and ate your meal. | Jan 06 05:46 |
| Isambard_Prince | They cleaned the table. No tipping allowed. | Jan 06 05:46 |
| Isambard_Prince | That's how restaurants should work. | Jan 06 05:46 |
| Isambard_Prince | It should be like an assembly line, very efficient. No tipping allowed. | Jan 06 05:47 |
| Isambard_Prince | I frequently don't eat at restaurants that allow tips, because I don't want to feel like I'm backed into a corner. Expected to hand over a large chunk of money when they should just pay employees. | Jan 06 05:48 |

| techrights-news | "I ask whether they have the email addresses of their old friends. "I'm not sure who is still on email, or how to reach them", they say. Worse some say, "I'm not really good at writing long messages any more. What am I supposed to say?"" | Jan 06 07:09 |
| techrights-news | "Fortunately, those who broke-free are too busy finally living to engage in over-reflection. They're just spending time in reality at last, enjoying walking on the beach - instead of making a video of walking on the beach to post on Instagram according to some mass-hysterical social pressure." | Jan 06 07:09 |
| techrights-news | "But the danger remains; that people will simply jump on to the next addictive and sapping technological trend the broligarchs and pushers have lined up. Whether that is "AI chat bots" that send people psychotic, or new forms of online gambling, for most of us, the next big thing that consumes years of our lives, breaks our relationships, health and prosperity, will be offered to us by someone close." | Jan 06 07:10 |
| techrights-news | "Take the "bans" on social media for children. I don't think that children or adults should waste their time on that rubbish, maybe because I'm an "elitist". Maintaining real relationships and seeking out knowledge does and should require some effort. Effort is what underpins quality." | Jan 06 07:11 |
| techrights-news | "But "Age Verification" is the stupidest and most ineffective approach imaginable. Every smart kid already figured out how to get around it. It's nothing but an excuse to roll out more fascist nonsense. It attacks the very important place of anonymity in society, in adolescent development" | Jan 06 07:11 |
| techrights-news | "Are governments scared of Google and Microsoft's lawyers? Oh, shudder! Why do governments around the world lack the basic courage to say "Tik Tok, Facebook, Instagram… are your enemy. They harm your mental health"?" | Jan 06 07:12 |
| techrights-news | "Pause for a moment to realise; none of this has any relation to rational, meritorious judgement and selection of technology. It is patently unscientific. Science may provide us with technology, but it is conspicuously absent when it comes to our use of technology." | Jan 06 07:13 |
| techrights-news | "Malinfluence propagates though work-places with bosses who push policy to use biometrics, policy to use "AI", policies to push invasive surveillance. They're largely unaware that they're making a few oligarchs rich, while paying very little attention to any actual benefits to their company or product." | Jan 06 07:14 |

It is infantile and regressive." | Jan 06 07:17 |

| techrights-news | "Widespread leakage and normalisation of surveillance and militarised technology is a catastrophe for peaceful civic life. The issue is not physical limitation of production and movement. The arms trade is as well regulated as we can manage." | Jan 06 07:19 |
| techrights-news | "The problem now is with systematic, actively inculcating the social normativity of offensive technologies. Don't like where your neighbour parks their car? Cover your driveway in CCTV cameras! Neurotic about where your kid is? Give them a phone stuffed with trackers to "chip" them like a farm animal!" | Jan 06 07:20 |
| techrights-news | "People get the wrong idea that these industrial, capitalist and military models of technology are the only possible ones. They represent only a tiny modicum of the vast and rich spectrum of technological possibility, most of which isn't rooted in domination and control. But to even see beneficent technology we must change our whole way of thinking about it." | Jan 06 07:21 |
| techrights-news | "Taking thoughtful technological responsibility, versus being compelled by blind economics to enter an arms race therefore requires resistance against preventable industrial injury on a society-wide scale. It applies as much to digital technologies as to guns and bombs, to the cogs, wheels and pulleys in factories or the processes in chemical plants." | Jan 06 07:22 |

| Isambard_Prince | Kempczinski's 2024 compensation totaled $18.2 million, including a $1.5 million salary, $7.5 million in stock awards, $7.5 million in options, and incentives. This equaled about $50,000 per day, dwarfing the median worker's $17,492 annual pay and creating a 1,014:1 ratio. Such disparities underscore widening executive-worker divides, with S&P 500 CEO pay averaging $17.1 million in 2024, up 9.7% from 2023, and ratios hitting 281:1 | Jan 06 18:08 |

| Isambard_Prince | schestowitz[TR2], It's reasonable to want a high limit on your credit card to about 10 times what you normally spend in a month. | Jan 06 21:06 |
| Isambard_Prince | Part of FICO is your utilization overall and part is your utilization on a given card. | Jan 06 21:06 |
| Isambard_Prince | If you have to spend $2,000 a month, but have a $3,000 limit on the card, your utilization will be 66% when the statement posts. | Jan 06 21:06 |
| Isambard_Prince | If you spend $2,000 in a month and have a $20,000 limit, your utilization is only 10%. | Jan 06 21:07 |
| Isambard_Prince | It helps stabilize your credit rating because it shows that you're not filling up the card. | Jan 06 21:07 |
| Isambard_Prince | There's also credit cards with such a low limit that you have to stop two or three times a month and pay it off in between statements, and that's not good either. | Jan 06 21:08 |
| Isambard_Prince | The banks call it cycling. It basically lets you spend beyond the limit they assigned you. ACH transfers, which is how you pay the card, can be disputed for up to 60 days, so the way the bank sees it, they are risking multiples of the amount they gave you. | Jan 06 21:08 |
| Isambard_Prince | So if you get one of those $500-1000 limits you're going to have to cycle it and that can get your account terminated. | Jan 06 21:09 |
