He's the stock trading villain in Wall Street and the sequel. [18:25] DaemonFC[m] His name has basically become a shorthand for everything wrong with Wall Street. [18:25] DaemonFC[m] Slicked back hair, business suit. "I create nothing.... I own.". [18:25] DaemonFC[m] No? [18:26] schestowitz__ 1987 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Gekko [18:26] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Gordon Gekko - Wikipedia [18:26] schestowitz__ I was 5 [18:27] schestowitz__ "Gekko has become a symbol in popular culture for unrestrained greed (with the signature line, "Greed, for lack of a better word, is good"), often in fields outside corporate finance. " [18:28] DaemonFC[m] I liked the movie. Still very relevant. [18:28] DaemonFC[m] The methods of cheating people and committing financial crime have changed a little due to the regulatory environment and technology. [18:28] DaemonFC[m] But the basic concepts have not changed at all since 1987 and the Savings & Loan Crisis. [18:30] DaemonFC[m] We've gone from an environment of low regulation to one where banks thread the needle to subvert the regulation, corporations figure out a way to put everything in one division so their investors have no idea of what really goes on and what's losing money and what's profitable. Like the Microsoft Clown. [18:32] DaemonFC[m] I think that, in practical effect, if Microsoft contributes anything to open source software that doesn't require proprietary software and is useful outside of the context of their products, then sure, that particular piece of software is probably fine. Apple does some of that too, but it doesn't make them the good guys. It means that they see value in it as someone else will maintain some core software they can [18:32] DaemonFC[m] incorporate back into a product and they benefit because they don't have to pay as much to maintain it. [18:33] DaemonFC[m] And that particular quality of open source software is what the Linux Foundation is hammering because that's the "value" that corporations speak. [18:33] DaemonFC[m] What's in it for them? [18:33] DaemonFC[m] Community doesn't mean anything to them. [18:34] DaemonFC[m] The Linux Foundation went from posting useful articles and interesting insights into a realm of hundreds of postings about how open source can grease the skids of your business, and it's all a bunch of psychobabble designed to fill pages. [18:35] DaemonFC[m] When they compare Linux to Windows Server, the first place they go is Microsoft's licensing structure, not the facts that it doesn't scale, doesn't perform well, gets viruses, crashes under its own weight, and locks you into other products that will in turn cost your business more. [18:36] DaemonFC[m] They go into numbers and it's only the direct costs, financial, of obtaining the software and licenses, for a small business, and if you only look at that small piece of the puzzle, perhaps $1,600 for your small business is not a lot of money, but Windows is designed to be a dirty bomb of licensing creep that will ultimately compound your problems. [18:37] DaemonFC[m] There are costs of downtime, costs of IT, costs of ransomware. Kia Motors of America found that out a few days ago when everything from their car's "smart" apps to their leasing department went down, and they had a screen demanding $20 million dollars. [18:39] DaemonFC[m] In addition to the $20 million dollars that they may have to pay, they paid Microsoft a fortune to put them into this predicament, and even if they pay the ransom, there's no telling when it may happen again. Also, there's the small fact that they're losing a fortune every day that they can't finance or lease new Kias. [18:40] DaemonFC[m] Every time a customer goes into a dealer and the dealers around here have 4-5 different brands, and they say "Lease me a Kia!" and the salesman says "Well, I can't lease you that Kia, but what about a Toyota or a Ford?", Windows cost Kia money. [18:40] DaemonFC[m] A lot of money. [18:41] DaemonFC[m] So it really depends on where you consider the TCO to end. The Linux Foundation has Microsoft sitting on the board, and so they talk about direct licensing, but not what happened to Kia. [18:42] DaemonFC[m] Never what happened to Kia. Linux can save your small business a thousand dollars. Woohoo. Don't worry about Kia losing $100 million because of the indirect problems of Windows. Just the licenses. Nothing like what happened to Kia will ever happen to you. We don't talk about ransomware here at The Linux Foundation.

[19:09] DaemonFC[m] That raise would put us in a much worse bracket and better to put something aside for the future, and that's the whole point of the tax code being the way it is. [19:10] DaemonFC[m] I'll be watching that closely and if I have to at the end of the year I'll start putting 50% of his last few paychecks into the plan to keep our bracket down.

[19:12] MinceR even if you "bring it down a lot", it's still more than zero [19:12] DaemonFC[m] The very least you should do is put in the matching funds, and then beyond that, you need to mind the brackets. [19:12] MinceR which means that parasites live off your money and waste it on pointless shit [19:12] MinceR and use it to make you less free [19:12] DaemonFC[m] If you go a little over, all of your income is taxed at that rate. [19:12] MinceR the "social contract" is a massive hoax [19:12] DaemonFC[m] So make some last minute contributions before the year is over. [19:13] DaemonFC[m] Yes, which makes tax avoidance a moral obligation, MinceR [19:13] DaemonFC[m] If you cut the state's fleecing down a bit, then less loafers can sit around waiting for their food stamps. [19:13] MinceR no, it makes the abolition of the state a moral obligation [19:13] DaemonFC[m] Oh you wouldn't do that. [19:14] DaemonFC[m] You'd be deprived of the state's protection. [19:14] DaemonFC[m] They have to protect you from having money and freedom to speak, you know.

[21:36] DaemonFC[m] They got a health insurance plan for their employees that's better than what my mom gets as a nurse. [21:36] DaemonFC[m] They do a 6% match on the 401(k). [21:37] DaemonFC[m] And anyone will be able to start there and make a minimum of $15 an hour. [21:37] DaemonFC[m] Meanwhile, at unionized Kroger.....$9 and no insurance. [21:37] DaemonFC[m] Wow, go union.
