gambling was ftw when there was a bunch of deposit bonuses and odds boosts. now the free money has dried up and every bet is a losing bet.

SKULL.GIF posted:if you actually do anything constructive as IK/mod posters will start whining, literally no matter what you actually do or how strict/permissive you are people always say that or that you get unhinged pms for sixers, but i didn't get any for the ip thread (got several "yeah i deserved that" pms though), and we were definitely using a fairly heavy hand the first few months. you should just have an idea of what kind of discourse you're trying to foster in the thread and warn/punish accordingly.

Does the thread want me to start probing as soon as people say boomer? jesus christ, I've never asked for anything remotely like that. Certain people's posts itt are like watching kindergartners say peepee & smirk that they said a naughty word. I've been incredibly clear on what I take issue with: the ahistorical & nonfactual claims the country's ills are caused by a particular random age group rather than by capital. bonus idiot points for those thinking that young people in their 20s & 30s should've done something to prevent reagan's policies that congressional dems wholeheartedly supported.

Willa Rogers posted:gently caress, now you tell me it's fine, and fwiw I agree with you on not probing people just for having bad opinions. showing up with bad opinions on the subject matter and getting brutally annihilated is what this forum is supposed to be all about, it's good content. the probes are for when we need to stop tedious/pointless/off-topic derails. 8 different posters sniping with one-liners like "boomers actually suck rear end" and "boomers aren't even real you loving morons" isn't even slightly funny or interesting, especially since we've seen it 20 times or more already, so basically that's what we want to shut down

Right, it's a class issue mostly and thanks to historical timing it just happens to look like generational issue at a high level. Anyway, it's an FOMC day. The Ayatollahs of Finance will speak soon. We must all watch with reverence as they decide today's stock market moves.

JUICE IT, JAY: quote:Congressional Democrats are, once again, greeting this news with calls for the Fed to start cutting rates. “Inflation is down significantly from its peak, and the Fed must not risk the progress we’ve made by maintaining these elevated interest rates for longer than necessary,” Representative Brendan Boyle of Pennsylvania, the top Democrat on the budget committee, said in a release.

theyre promising cuts later this year, no actual cuts yet the cuts will instantly juice the stock market when they happen, of course any real downstream effects on the actual "doing things in the material realm" economy won't happen until well after the election

Like can some PA make bank by always knowing which thing to bet on, or is this a case of the App always denying all payouts related to wrestling. Because to win means you must have insider knowledge. you can bet on wwe but the lines always move bigly on the day of the show as results get around backstage

China is bad because they won't guarantee future results based on past performance. Like can you even imagine building housing for your people instead of making number go up? CAN YOU? https://www.cnbc.com/2024/03/11/chinas-housing-minister-property-developers-must-go-bankrupt-if-needed.html BEIJING — China’s struggling real estate developers won’t be getting a major bailout, Chinese authorities have indicated, warning that those who “harm the interests of the masses” will be punished. “For real estate companies that are seriously insolvent and have lost the ability to operate, those that must go bankrupt should go bankrupt, or be restructured, in accordance with the law and market principles,” Ni Hong, Minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, said at a press conference Saturday. “Those who commit acts that harm the interests of the masses will be resolutely investigated and punished in accordance with the law,” he said. “They will be made to pay the due price.” That’s according to a CNBC translation of his Mandarin-language remarks published in an official transcript of the press conference, held alongside China’s annual parliamentary meetings. Ni’s comments come as major real estate developers from Evergrande to Country Garden have defaulted on their debt, while plunging new home sales have put future business into question.In 2020, Beijing cracked down on developers’ high reliance on debt for growth in an attempt to clamp down on property market speculation. But many developers soon ran out of money to finish building apartments, which are typically sold to homebuyers in China ahead of completion. Some buyers stopped paying their mortgages in a boycott. Authorities have since announced measures to provide some developers with financing. But the national stance on reducing the role of real estate in the economy hasn’t changed. This year’s annual government gathering has emphasized the country’s focus on investing in and building up high-end manufacturing capabilities. In contrast, the leadership has not mentioned the massive real estate sector as much. Real estate barely came up during a press conference focused on the economy last week, while Ni was speaking during a meeting that focused on “people’s livelihoods.” Ni said authorities would promote housing sales and the development of affordable housing, while emphasizing the need to consider the longer term. Near-term changes in the property sector have a significant impact on China’s overall economy. Real estate was once about 25% of China’s GDP, when including related sectors such as construction. UBS analysts estimated late last year that property now accounts for about 22% of the economy. Last week, Premier Li Qiang said in his government work report that in the year ahead, China would “move faster to foster a new development model for real estate.” “We will scale up the building and supply of government-subsidized housing and improve the basic systems for commodity housing to meet people’s essential need for a home to live in and their different demands for better housing,” an English-language version of the report said.
