from the same org that brought me mandatory overtime for the past several years:quote:We have thoroughly enjoyed the week getting to see so many of you. It has been a pleasure seeing the many smiles (and tears) as you have been engaged this week through various means by your division leadership to say thank you. They have been very intentional in ensuring you are shown the highest level of appreciation. there were no goodies

I know someone's watching that poo poo bc I had to call for help once & they saw what I was asking about. The camera at walmart has an item tracking algorithm built in. so if you forget to scan an item and go to make payment too soon it will lock down the register and alert a worker to assist and then replay the video with item it tracks highlighted in a box. they're getting really good. https://www.digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/walmart-using-ai-powered-cameras-to-spot-shoplifters-at-self-checkouts/

The actual death toll is probably at least a million more than what the official tally is at

Yeah I had that pop up for me when I was using the self check out, I was scanning poo poo and missed a scan but it doesn't go off immediately it just hangs the self checkout. it beeped like it scanned the next thing but didn't actually scan lol then some worker had to come over and look at it and figure out to make it scan again. lol every day in this dumb country everything is more stupider and more annoying may allah smite the great satan

skaboomizzy posted:my dad has four pensions plus Agent Orange disability payments (backpaid), he is in his 80s and making more money per month than I ever will and all his cancer treatments for the past four years have been completely paid for That's basically my neighbor! Retired before 60 on two pensions that allowed him to completely pay off his house and buy a new BMW every two years. He's in his 80s now, has always lived alone, but of course needs two cars because the M3 can't be a daily driver. The two companies he has pensions with are literally the only two companies he's ever worked for in his entire life; the first one was the job he got while in college. He's also a massive MAGA racist.

Xaris posted:one of the very interesting phenomenon right now is how VIX seems to be artificially low the past year despite all the explosions going off including 3 major bank failures. even back in the oxsnard era it would routinely go off and historically has tracked high yield bonds like hyg. now high vol would actually rupture the financial markets with all the leveraging I think traditional financial institutions are learning from how crypto exchanges have brought number massaging to ever newer heights. the liquidity has been steadily draining as whales exit, but they're careful to avoid collapse in prices, lest the bagholders wise up

well yeah housing prices are still like pandemic bubble 800k-1.5m pricing for ‘starter home’ in most desirable cities and still like 400-700k in less so places, but now like 7% mortgage rates. no one is going to get a mortgage

SKULL.GIF posted:New mortgages are plummeting. There was a very, very brief window where I think realtors could really sell the idea of transitory high rates and that window is over. Everyone who could theoretically buy in that environment has already done so, and everyone waiting for lower rates is probably slowly realizing that buying now may mean living with a $3k/month mortgage for years.
