The difference is that you will not get to rate shop and it may not be the rate you could get yourself, and if you don't pay the forced placed insurance (which is now the mortgage itself!) they will foreclose on the home.

Sat 13:17:10 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] That doesn't sound very left wing to me because, in software, copying does not remove the original, meaning limited intervention by government is needed to protect those rights. All the state need do is refuse to participate in legal action undertaken by those trying to trample on others modifying the code. At most, I would argue that state intervention might be needed to compell the release of source code, if mandatory source cod

Sat 13:17:11 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] That said, that doesn't mean it's inherently bad (as a consequence of being 'left' or 'right'). I think trying to put everything you agree with on the same side of the spectrum that you self-identfy with (and, conversely, putting everything you disagree with on the other side) is harmful to the people because it hinders bipartisanship on universally good ideas and enables malfeasance by leaders in an aligned party."

Sat 21:03:55 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ American Express - Why They're Successful
Sat 21:06:59 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I have Discover cards. They still say "Diner's Club" on the back of them strangely enough.
Sat 21:07:23 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Although Diner's Club hasn't been a thing in decades, you still see the logo where the Discover logo is on businesses.
Sat 21:09:42 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ American Express has all these travel perks, but then you find out that it's actually hard to use the cards if you go out of the country. Even when you can use it abroad, they charge a fee of 3.5% that many Visa and MasterCards don't have.
Sat 21:10:33 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Capital One has no foreign transaction fee. That came in handy several times when I had to buy something in other currencies online. I almost never use my Capital One cards unless I am doing that and want to avoid getting whacked with a 3.5% fee on top of the transaction.
Sat 21:11:12 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I keep the Discover cards around because Mandy and I both have Discover It and they occasionally have some sort of crazy promo or a good bonus category (they revolve).
Sat 21:11:26 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So there's no spending on them for months, then there's a huge spike, then no spending for months.
Sat 21:13:00 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Discover could have avoided being acquired by Capital One had they been more innovative and done something to encourage people with Discover cards to keep them "top of the wallet". I think American Express is eating up most of the higher end business these days. Other banks are fighting over less desirable customers.
Sat 21:13:15 │ 〖admfubar〗 │ https://www.firstpost.com/explainers/sun-valley-2025-ai-rivalries-media-shakeups-paramount-mergers-everything-13905322.html
Sat 21:14:07 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ My dad still keeps his Discover card top of the wallet, but he's a 72 year old man that's not looking for premium benefits. You can't run a company when the average age of your customers is going up about 1 year every year.
Sat 21:48:59 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Discover was primarily useful for being really easy to get as a person with a bankruptcy. A relatively low deposit which gets returned in 5-6 months when they up the limit and convert it to a normal card.

Sat 22:56:51 │ 〖darwin〗 │ oops; wrong line
Sat 22:57:02 │ 〖darwin〗 │ people are marrying artificial intelligence software now, sort of like videogamers in Asia/Japan did same in dating/marriage videogames... The Guardian has article on it. I consider this an abomination
Sat 22:57:16 │ 〖darwin〗 │ for the Free/Libre Software (FLS) issue but also ignoring other humans

Sat 23:17:37 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ schestowitz[TR3], A lot of the reason I don't shop at Aldi anymore is they went completely off the rails.
Sat 23:18:21 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You used to have to take cash there, but eventually you could slide your debit card. Debit cards don't charge much to the merchant. Then they started taking credit cards, including the ones that are very expensive for merchants, like American Express.
