Do we have insurance for that?

So if I understand correctly, the reason it's outdated is not because we don't need those pesky banking regulations any more, but that it has been found that banks will just take out their own loans to cover the reserves they need from the central bank, so they can just lend as much as they want, no seatbelts. And the central bank will never run out of loans to give, since they have insane reserves, in their own currency it is technically unlimited.

So money is not really the thing we think it is. If banks overextend themselves and fuck up, the only thing we'll see instead of failing banks is runaway inflation in the consumer and asset (housing) markets. Wonder where I've seen that.

Are they independent from the cancerous management though?

Bank spokesman says they are itching to be the sector to fire the most workers, poised to make the economy so much better.

It's kinda fucked up that each major political camp denies some genocide. Like we could replace who you vote for with which genocide was a shamocide?

I understand, then male would mean "people with a penis"?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

ESL person question here - isn't "male" used as an adjective more than a noun? If you used "pregnant female" as a counterpart, it would sound weird to me, like we were talking about rabbits, not people.

I sometimes do drink myself to sovereign citizen. Unlike most of those people, I do get sober the next morning.

Nuh-uh, sound has to go over HDMI as well. You may only partake in your own culture through DRM-approved channels.

This got me thinking, could you still get an abortion in the bad parts of the US if you trademarked your DNA, and claimed that the condom breaking violated DMCA?

You know, show up at the doctors with a ton of papers headlined

CEASE AND DESIST

Or at least get child support out of Durex?

Nah, they'll just sue you if you're using VGA instead of HDMI since it obviously means you are trying to crack DRM and thus running afoul of DMCA.

F-Droid could go through it, the thing that is prohibited is for Google to bar them just because they are a competitor.

Unironically, tariffs would help here IMO to bring Ukrainian exports to the price levels set by EU wages.

I'd even tie it directly to wages and lift it if the Ukrainian exporter can prove they pay as much as a Polish company.
