| Isambard_Prince | MinceR, Someone on Reddit posted that they spent $31,000 on their AmEx card but all they had to pay was $95. Then it showed that this was a minimum payment based on a $7,000 statement balance, and that they were still in the zero interest intro period. | Jan 20 01:07 |
| Isambard_Prince | I just said, "I could tell you what the lesson will be, but American Express will do that shortly." | Jan 20 01:07 |

| Isambard_Prince | MinceR, That episode of Lexx with the space station hospital cracks me up every time. | Jan 20 01:18 |
| Isambard_Prince | It's basically the US healthcare system. | Jan 20 01:18 |
| Isambard_Prince | They can fix almost anything, for money. | Jan 20 01:18 |
| Isambard_Prince | I got yet more bills from the hospital today. | Jan 20 01:19 |
| Isambard_Prince | For the surgery on my shoulder. | Jan 20 01:19 |
| Isambard_Prince | I hurried up and paid some minor ones batched together to make some transactions that were just over $10 each before the one from the other surgeon posts. | Jan 20 01:19 |
| Isambard_Prince | I'm working on a debit card bonus for a throwaway account. | Jan 20 01:20 |
| Isambard_Prince | They give you $250 for making 20 purchases over $10 within 75 days. | Jan 20 01:20 |
| Isambard_Prince | I used three of them to clean up 5 small co-pays. | Jan 20 01:20 |
| Isambard_Prince | MinceR, I threw an electric bill into the wood chipper too. I paid a few $10+ transactions on it in various amounts. | Jan 20 01:24 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-itsfoss.com | Linus Torvalds Defends Windows' Blue Screen of Death | Jan 20 01:46 | |
| Isambard_Prince | Well, PC hardware is horrible. | Jan 20 01:47 |
| Isambard_Prince | And most of the reason it's horrible is because Microsoft dictates a lot of the things that end up inside it. | Jan 20 01:47 |
| Isambard_Prince | So there's no getting away from that if you get rid of Windows and use something els.e | Jan 20 01:47 |
| Isambard_Prince | Yahoo has another one of those "How much is each American worth on average, by age group." | Jan 20 01:48 |
| Isambard_Prince | Well, that's a diseased mindset. | Jan 20 01:48 |
| Isambard_Prince | Saying someone's only worth what's in their bank account. | Jan 20 01:49 |
| Isambard_Prince | Reducing the value of a life to the things you could buy. | Jan 20 01:49 |
| Isambard_Prince | If you don't want to buy very many things, you will have more money even if you make less money than someone else. | Jan 20 01:49 |
| MinceR | windows is even more horrible | Jan 20 01:49 |
| Isambard_Prince | There's someone on FICO Forums who posted one of those "We make $650,000 a year and we're drowning in debt." stories the other day. | Jan 20 01:49 |
| MinceR | but hey, linux is catching up | Jan 20 01:50 |
| MinceR | today, i had several GBs of RAM free and practically nothing running, and i still got a relatively light website scroll almost an entire screen in 1 frame | Jan 20 01:50 |
| MinceR | with the scroll wheel | Jan 20 01:50 |
| Isambard_Prince | I made about 2.6% of that amount last year and I'm not drowning. | Jan 20 01:51 |
| Isambard_Prince | They're worth less than I am. | Jan 20 01:51 |
| Isambard_Prince | Because they're both lawyers who make $325,000 each and they accumulated too many things. | Jan 20 01:51 |
| Isambard_Prince | Their HOA fee on the house. Not the house, but the HOA fee, is double my monthly rent. | Jan 20 01:51 |
| Isambard_Prince | They had kids and they sent them to private school. | Jan 20 01:52 |
| Isambard_Prince | They hired nannies and maids and tutors and chefs and things. | Jan 20 01:52 |
| MinceR | i wonder what they get out of that HOA fee | Jan 20 01:52 |
| Isambard_Prince | So they have a payroll for operating their household. | Jan 20 01:52 |
| Isambard_Prince | Nobody will take them seriously in their profession if they drive up in a 17 year old Buick. | Jan 20 01:53 |
| Isambard_Prince | So they have car payments, on luxury cars. | Jan 20 01:53 |
| Isambard_Prince | I mean, it just goes on and on. | Jan 20 01:53 |
| Isambard_Prince | MinceR, The $2400 a month HOA? | Jan 20 01:53 |
| Isambard_Prince | It's there to fine you if you paint your door military gray instead of ocean gray. | Jan 20 01:54 |
| Isambard_Prince | Or if they think your flagpole is three inches too high. | Jan 20 01:54 |
| Isambard_Prince | Or they don't like your fence. | Jan 20 01:54 |
| MinceR | sounds wonderful | Jan 20 01:54 |
| Isambard_Prince | Or if you're not there before 3 PM which is the deadline to get empty trashcans behind the house. | Jan 20 01:54 |
| MinceR | really worth the money | Jan 20 01:54 |
| Isambard_Prince | MinceR, Yeah. It's not. | Jan 20 02:11 |
| MinceR | :> | Jan 20 02:11 |
| Isambard_Prince | You're better off with a $16 an hour job and no college debt than with a lot of college degrees. | Jan 20 02:11 |
| Isambard_Prince | You're really better off if you're not trying to impress anyone. | Jan 20 02:11 |
| Isambard_Prince | MinceR, They have a saying in Texas. It goes "Big hat, no cattle." | Jan 20 02:12 |
| Isambard_Prince | I use that when someone who is obviously a wage earner walks in with better clothes than me, has a car payment, etc. | Jan 20 02:12 |
| MinceR | :> | Jan 20 02:12 |
| Isambard_Prince | MinceR, The power went out at the gas station before it finished running my card. | Jan 20 02:17 |
| Isambard_Prince | But the pump filled up the tank and then never charged the card. | Jan 20 02:18 |
| Isambard_Prince | The manager didn't know what to do so she said don't worry about it, and help myself to a cup of coffee on the way out. | Jan 20 02:18 |
| Isambard_Prince | :) | Jan 20 02:18 |
| Isambard_Prince | I dumped in a bottle of Gumout Regane High Mileage this time. | Jan 20 02:19 |
| Isambard_Prince | I've been hammering it with fuel system cleaner. This is the third tank. | Jan 20 02:19 |
| Isambard_Prince | I'll give it a break after this. | Jan 20 02:19 |
| Isambard_Prince | I had a very bad problem but it hasn't been acting up at all since the middle of the second treated tank. | Jan 20 02:19 |
| Isambard_Prince | It's hard for me to justify using Top Tier gas stations when they're almost always about 70-80 cents per gallon more expensive. | Jan 20 02:20 |
| Isambard_Prince | I just forgot to dump some detergent in myself for the past couple years and I guess this is the result. | Jan 20 02:21 |
| Isambard_Prince | How temperamental are European cars with carbon buildup? | Jan 20 02:22 |
| Isambard_Prince | Or does the government there require better detergents? | Jan 20 02:22 |
| MinceR | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | Jan 20 02:29 |
| MinceR | both my cars were japanese | Jan 20 02:29 |
| Isambard_Prince | I found a 1993 model Mr. Coffee. | Jan 20 02:30 |
| MinceR | but have you found a Mr. Radar? | Jan 20 02:30 |
| Isambard_Prince | I bought it. I think it makes better coffee than the Moccamaster honestly. | Jan 20 02:30 |
| Isambard_Prince | I don't think it's been used. | Jan 20 02:30 |

| Isambard_Prince | At vending machines today, it's quite common that a single can of Coke is $2.25 or so. | Jan 20 05:03 |
| Isambard_Prince | In some places they can be $2.75. | Jan 20 05:03 |
| Isambard_Prince | I recall, the 90s, even the mid 2000s, when Walmart had store brand soda machines. | Jan 20 05:03 |
| Isambard_Prince | And you could still put 25 cents in and get a can of Sam's Choice cola. Or the other flavors. | Jan 20 05:04 |
| Isambard_Prince | MinceR, I was working there in 2005 when a 12 pack was $2.98 in the store. But still 25 cents each in the machine at the front of the store. | Jan 20 05:05 |
| Isambard_Prince | Accounting for the cost of keeping them cold, I'd say it was a loss leader. | Jan 20 05:06 |
| MinceR | yeah, inflation exists | Jan 20 05:06 |
| Isambard_Prince | Really nasty inflation. | Jan 20 05:07 |
| Isambard_Prince | Inflation tends to freak people out. | Jan 20 05:07 |
| Isambard_Prince | Japan had about 30 years, I think, where prices were very stable. | Jan 20 05:08 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | "Yet another discrimination lawsuit has been filed against IBM. | Jan 20 06:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | This time, a 61 year old white man is alleging age discrimination… and the story, if true, makes IBM look like a true villain. | Jan 20 06:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | According to the ex-IBM employee (responsible for over $7 Million in sales per year), after his daughter died (and he dared to take 2 weeks off work to mourn), IBM placed him on a “Performance Improvement Plan” with goals designed to be impossible (including hitting 45% of his yearly goals in only a few weeks time). | Jan 20 06:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | A tactic clearly designed to justify termination of the high performing employee, who was the wrong age. And, based on the details of the suit… the wrong skin color and gender. | Jan 20 06:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Apparently, “a black woman with identical territory, quota, and performance” was not punished. | Jan 20 06:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Considering IBM’s long standing policies of illegal race and gender hiring (and firing) quotas, none of this is surprising." | Jan 20 06:44 |
| techrights-news | "My dad worked for IBM in storage sales and, when he got cancer, they boosted his quota to 300% more that his career best quarter and when he only hit 250% they fired him to get him off the payroll and out of their insurance pool" https://x.com/politicalmath/status/2013473866148937735 | Jan 20 06:48 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | they were never expensive | Jan 20 17:42 |
| Isambard_Prince | Way back in the day, Mandrake came with Transgaming WineX. | Jan 20 17:42 |
| Isambard_Prince | Which turned into Cedega later. | Jan 20 17:43 |
| Isambard_Prince | Early on in the fork they made it run SOME Windows games that Wine couldn't. | Jan 20 17:43 |
| Isambard_Prince | But Wine responded by changing the license from the MIT X11 license to the LGPL, I think. | Jan 20 17:43 |
| Isambard_Prince | So Cedega started to diverge and rot. | Jan 20 17:43 |
| Isambard_Prince | Some things it did better, some things it did worse, than Wine. | Jan 20 17:43 |
| Isambard_Prince | So you more or less had to have both just because Cedega ran some things Wine didn't because of licensed copy protection routines and their own implementation of DirectX which was better in some ways. | Jan 20 17:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | That was horrible. | Jan 20 17:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | It turned into something horrible. | Jan 20 17:44 |
| Isambard_Prince | Eventually Cedega couldn't manage their fork at all anymore and went under and Wine got better support for DirectX and most Windows APIs overall. | Jan 20 17:45 |
| Isambard_Prince | And then Valve started contributing and it got very good. | Jan 20 17:45 |

| Isambard_Prince | schestowitz[TR2], I noticed that Moccamaster lowered their price to refurbish your machine. | Jan 20 18:09 |
| Isambard_Prince | It dropped from $99 to fix everything that's wrong with it and ship it back, to $79. | Jan 20 18:10 |
| Isambard_Prince | Meanwhile, the cost of a new unit went up 10% since 2022. | Jan 20 18:10 |
