[03:09] DaemonFC schestowitz Is driving to the bank to cash a check a good use of my time? [03:10] DaemonFC It used to take a long time after you wrote a check to someone for them to cash it. That's because they had to end up driving to the bank and presenting it, then the bank had to send it to your bank and so on and finally a couple weeks later, it comes out, maybe. [03:10] DaemonFC Or maybe they just hold onto it for a long time. [03:11] DaemonFC You have to balance a checkbook and if you make a mistake you have to go back and figure out where, or you start bouncing checks, uh oh. [03:11] DaemonFC That costs the amount of the check and like $35 and they could do it more than once and then eventually you get a call from the prosecutor wanting to know why you've been writing "hot checks". [03:12] DaemonFC Banking like they did it 30-40 years ago really sucks. [03:12] DaemonFC Because you have to keep a rolling record of all of your checks and not get it wrong. [03:13] DaemonFC Today I can spin up as many bank accounts as I want, link them however I want to. [03:13] DaemonFC I can't bounce the check for the rent because I put the amount of rent there then write the check and that's all that one gets used for. [03:14] DaemonFC Landlords get quite angry if you start bouncing checks on them. Then they'll evict, or at least demand that you pay them in some other, less convenient, way. I've never bounced a rent check. [03:14] DaemonFC I don't plan to. [03:14] DaemonFC It costs money to abuse other people's confidence in you. [03:15] DaemonFC If your landlord won't take checks, you might have to add $2 each month to the rent to get a postal money order before you mail THAT. [03:16] DaemonFC Rent is already expensive. I don't want to add ANOTHER fee to pay it. Not even $2 for a money order. [03:16] DaemonFC Not to mention there's a "bad boy" list of people who screw banks, called Chexsystems, so it doesn't just get you in trouble with the landlord if you start bouncing checks. [03:17] DaemonFC Eventually you get cut off from the banking system and get accounts on very harsh terms, or have to resort to using prepaid debit cards that have a lot of fees. [03:18] DaemonFC Chexsystems isn't really affected by filing bankruptcy. It's not your "credit score", as in FICO.. [03:18] DaemonFC Bankruptcy ruins your score that lenders see, but as long as you're not "on Chexsystems" as having done anything grotesque involving a bank account, you should still be able to use bank accounts.

[23:23] DaemonFC I've already been tested for that because it's one of the things the shrinks suggested based on junk science in the early 1990s. [23:24] DaemonFC I have a better explanation. [23:24] DaemonFC For my behaviors. [23:26] DaemonFC It goes, "The school was boring me to death. I dropped out before I was even finished with 9th grade, my parents got warnings from the truancy officer, and formally withdrew me from school when I reached 16, and then I completed the five hour GED test in an hour and a half and did well above a passing score and so what would have been the point in sticking around a bunch of idiots that were... [23:26] DaemonFC ...fucking each other and selling drugs.... [23:26] DaemonFC When the school actually demanded an IQ test around the third grade, it showed that I was actually smarter than anyone else in my class and they didn't have any legal justification for putting me in special education just to get me out of their hair. [23:27] DaemonFC Indiana law at the time said you had to have an IQ below 75 to go to special ed and they said that mine (at the time on the test they used) was 136. [23:28] DaemonFC You have to compare people in the same age group and so that was compared to other kids in the 3rd grade at that time. [23:28] schestowitz DaemonFC: draft?> [23:29] DaemonFC When the class is below your abilities the kid's mind wanders. They hate that kid because they're laying down at their desk and barely even paying attention and still doing fine on the test. [23:29] DaemonFC And they can't explain it, so they single that one out for harassment. [23:29] DaemonFC schestowitz Sure. [23:30] DaemonFC I actually got yelled at so many times in grade school for "laying down at my desk" while the teacher was talking. [23:30] schestowitz http://techrights.org/2023/07/24/microsoft-public-relations-folly/ [23:30] DaemonFC I was not getting bad grades.

[23:31] TR News gemini://sporiff.dev/2023/07/24/x/ [23:31] DaemonFC My mom actually got into an argument with the teacher. [23:32] DaemonFC She went into my math class and said she didn't care what the teacher allowed, I was not to use a calculator for anything.

[23:36] DaemonFC Worth noting that Microsoft and Walmart share some of the same PR firms. [23:36] schestowitz will add thanks [23:36] schestowitz amending [23:36] TR News Emma Flint: "why the Barbie movies body diversity message shortchanges Ken" gemini://robert.smol.pub/1690195010 [23:36] DaemonFC So some of the layoffs might be that Walmart is cutting expenses and has less budget for the "bullshit canon" these days. They close lots of stores and list them as "MASS LAYOFF". [23:36] schestowitz also: kevin turnet [23:36] schestowitz microsoft/walmart [23:36] schestowitz *turner [23:38] DaemonFC There's a disturbing amount of cross-pollination between Walmart and Microsoft. [23:38] DaemonFC Microsoft execs leave and join Walmart and then they "contract" with Microsoft. [23:39] DaemonFC I don't even think this new policy of like 50 self-checkouts and two human cashiers makes sense, but they pushed it because each on of those machines runs Windows. [23:39] DaemonFC It's an excuse to spend a lot of money with Microsoft for a thing that hurts Walmart's bottom line. They can justify it as "reduces labor" while they lose several times that in stolen merchandise. [23:40] schestowitz " Ryan's spouse works at Walmart, where many layoffs are silently happening right now with HR tricks to keep quite about that, not just PR tricks." [23:40] DaemonFC quiet [23:40] DaemonFC But yes, they cut hours and then say there's no layoffs at that store. [23:40] DaemonFC They reduced the open positions listed down to just 5 at the entire store, so it's obvious what's happening. [23:41] schestowitz adding [23:41] schestowitz 2 birds, one stone [23:41] DaemonFC Not quite a hiring freeze, but just about one. They hire as few people as they can run the store with and "hours" for those that didn't quit when it got really bad slowly go back up as staffing levels off. [23:42] DaemonFC They freeze, they make people panic and go find another job, and then it lets up a bit for those that had enough money to get through a really bad month. [23:42] DaemonFC A month or two is all it takes when you're living on the edge of the knife anyway, with inflation and a job that doesn't pay a lot. [23:43] schestowitz ok, finalising [23:43] schestowitz added [23:43] DaemonFC After the inflation battering ram and greedy landlords over the past few years, $18 may look like "Oh wow!" but like, you're thinking in 2019 dollars. [23:44] DaemonFC When he started his job, they only paid him like a little under $12 an hour, and we seemed to do okay. [23:44] DaemonFC But now it's almost $18 and we're not doing as well. [23:44] DaemonFC It's like "Why is this?" The media lies and says inflation isn't "THAT" bad, but how the hell has both our income gone up by nearly a third in just three years and we're not doing as well? [23:45] schestowitz marvel [23:45] schestowitz thanks, joe [23:45] DaemonFC It's because everything has gone up faster than that. Or else we'd be able to save as much as we did then. [23:46] DaemonFC Yeah, this thing with Ukraine is a neverending money pit. [23:46] DaemonFC They're not gaining ground on the Russians. Putin figures all he has to do is keep the situation no worse than it is and eventually Biden will lose the next election and the Republicans will cut Ukraine off. [23:46] DaemonFC Then he'll conquer the rest. [23:47] DaemonFC That's got to be what he's thinking. [23:48] DaemonFC The whole thing with "cluster bombs" isn't something the US wanted to do, it's that we've allowed the situation to get so bad that we don't have the kind of suppliers we need to even restock artillery shells anymore. [23:48] DaemonFC And it didn't even take a major war or a world war to do it. Just Putin sending some Soviet crap over the border into Ukraine for a year and a half. [23:49] DaemonFC So we have all of these cluster bombs that those howitzers can fire instead of their regular shells. [23:49] DaemonFC And so we hand it over and say "Here, kill some of those Russian bastards with THIS!" [23:50] DaemonFC And of course it will leave unexploded bomblets all over their own country, but they don't have any choice. [23:50] DaemonFC schestowitz I noticed something (tech related) today.
