CommieGIR posted:Its very shady as hell, and Wells Fargo has a legacy of shady poo poo, which is probably why they are doing this. quote:When Philip Poniz opened Box 105 at his local Wells Fargo, he discovered it was empty — and that he was totally unprotected by federal law. quote:In the days after Mr. Poniz found his box empty, he began piecing together what had happened: Wells Fargo had apparently tried to evict another customer for not keeping up with payments, and bank employees had mistakenly removed his box instead. After drilling No. 105 open, the bank shipped its contents to a storage facility in North Carolina. After Mr. Poniz discovered the loss, Wells Fargo sent back everything it had in storage, but some items had vanished. quote:When Wells Fargo employees opened Mr. Poniz’s box, they created an inventory that included 92 watches. When workers at the bank’s storage facility in North Carolina counted the items, they listed only 85. Also missing were dozens of rare coins that were listed in the first inventory, but not the second. According to Mr. Poniz, photographs and family documents also disappeared. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/19/business/safe-deposit-box-theft.html

facialimpediment posted:2) Pfizer is developing a third/booster/Delta-specific dose, and it's apparently super-powerful, but the CDC/FDA is currently not convinced we need it yet. To be clear, there are two different things going on here. Pfizer has had trials running for a third shot, of identical composition to the two shots that tens of millions of Americans have already received, as a months-later booster. Trials are going well and they want EUA so everyone can get it. They have very recently announced that they are working on a shot with Delta-tailored structure, to enter trials next month. For completeness, I will note that Moderna has been running trials for a vaccine tailored against B.1.351 (Beta, South Africa) for about as long as Pfizer has been trying their third identical shot strategy.

(no, not a direct quote from anyone, just ~implied~) You know, I used to look at how these years went in Star Trek: TOS and TNG during the initial airings and think, "wow, good thing it didn't pan out like that." Turns out we were just ~20-30 years off. Only there'll be no Warp Drive or "First Contact" after the resource wars. BIG HEADLINE fucked around with this message at 02:37 on Jul 9, 2021 |

I was real big on the TOS pulp novels in middle school and found one at my brother's house I had missed years ago and read it this week. Yeah, so turns out Spock's World (1988) is about a racist secession crisis on Vulcan fueled by internet message board trolls paid to seed societal unrest by a real estate developer because Spock & McCoy hurt her feelings once. They also cracked the case open because Bones had a backdoor into the server logs. Diane Duane is a time traveller

She was the first writer I ever wrote fanmail to (via CompuServe, aged twelve). I asked her how she created such consistent Rihannsu-language dialogue.

Unfortunately I lacked the means to download said code from a Compuserve account at the time, or to compile it - but it was a darn cool thing to do for a kid fan, and absolutely typical of her from what I can tell. On Isabel Fall: Platystemon posted:You have events reversed here. It was also intended to be a memetic weapon of sorts: an attempt to change search engine results for the phrase from transphobic jokes to references to trans and queer lit and theory. Given that string now mostly turns up references to her story and criticism of or about it I'd say it succeeded quite well...

US Berder Patrol posted:Are personal loans a popular product? I can't think of anyone I knew who ever just got a straight up loan, not home equity or auto or whatever from a bank. I used the WF loan twice in the last 20 years, usually when I had some degree of Credit card debt but had some crazy poo poo happen so I cleared out the credit cards, to get the lower interest rate and then pay it all off in 1-2 years. The two times where both job changes/lay offs and moves including one international. I bounced back out of it.. must have been a recent choice I was getting offers all year for a personal line of credit. It's probably handy for people who want to buy "lifestyle" goods that usually lack affordable financing... eg. rv/motorsports/boating related poo poo always seems to have sky high interest rates due to the risk of the bank/lender getting stuck with a hard to sell asset. /edit I had interest rates as low as 5% for the line of credit. Never used it for cars since my credit union regularly does 1-2% depending if its new or used. Big K of Justice fucked around with this message at 10:19 on Jul 9, 2021 |

So Biden is trying to restrict non-compete agreements being used to lock down labor and restrict their ability to look for higher wages. I'm expecting a new entry in to the Olympics as Republicans contort reality and truth in to making this a bad thing and really every one should be signing non-competes for everything everywhere and only a socialist would be trying to stop them because communism!

Everyone agrees meaningful, structural changes through political means is impossible today, so politics is about what face you want on the decaying state. Honestly just being horny for these people makes more sense to me than the Khive. Re: noncompetes, I cannot imagine democratic senators unanimously supporting that. I'm sure like usual setup will happen where we pretend it's just manchin and sinema but really I'd be surprised if most Dem senators were willing to stand in the way of the free market's ability to restrict your labor.

Mr. Nice! posted:The judge said "everyone who signed the kraken filing will appear either in person or on zoom." All of the lawyers hired another lawyer to represent them and asked the judge if they still had to personally show up or if their lawyer could handle the hearing for them. The judge replied "did I loving stutter?" The judge was just offered more information from the City of Detroit (Michigan Senate Republicans have referred these lolyers to the state AG because they're pulling campaign contributions that could be going to state Republican reps) and the judge just responded with "nah, I have enough already, see you on Monday" https://twitter.com/KlasfeldReports/status/1413568779448209411 I'm still 50/50 on if the judge is going to yell a lot or if they're going to impose sanctions.

My favorite thing that the Biden Adminstration does is firing Donnie holdovers as soon as they get the legal clearance to do it. Then, when the underling predictably refuses to resign and runs to the media, they promptly tell the underling to gently caress right off. https://twitter.com/GlennKesslerWP/status/1413609047908098052 quote:As the head of an independent agency whose leadership does not normally change with a new administration, Saul’s six-year term was supposed to last until January 2025. The White House said a recent Supreme Court ruling gives the president power to replace him. Buddy, I didn't even know your name a half hour ago, you're hosed, get out. quote:“Since taking office, Commissioner Saul has undermined and politicized Social Security disability benefits, terminated the agency’s telework policy that was utilized by up to 25 percent of the agency’s workforce, not repaired SSA’s relationships with relevant Federal employee unions including in the context of COVID-19 workplace safety planning, reduced due process protections for benefits appeals hearings, and taken other actions that run contrary to the mission of the agency and the President’s policy agenda,” the White House said in a statement. https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/biden-replaces-trump-era-social-security-commissioner
