Mulva posted:Short explanation, they don't understand "full faith and credit" and think that money has to be still backed by something tangible, in this case people. They believe that when we moved off the gold standard President Roosevelt dissolved the government, reformed it as a private corporation and pledged all present and future Americans, now assets of USA Inc, as backing for US currency. Henceforth when an American is born some amount of money, the most common amount cited is $200,000, is placed in a bond that is then sold on the open market, it earns interest, which is then placed into a account with the same number. So have a bill to pay? Just give them your birth certificate, or birth certificate number, and the US Treasury will issue a warrant out of it to the payee. This totally works. Also if you build a makeshift runway out of bamboo and palm leaves the magic sky gods will fly over and leave you presents

Tarantula posted:Youtube game critic Jim sterling was being sued by a video game publisher for almost $11 million, the lawsuit has just been dismissed with prejudice and now Jim has made a video detailing the idiocy of the company that tried to sue him, I've set the video to my favorite part in the clip where Jim goes over where Digital Homicide make their financial claims and explain why they set the amount they did. (Probably a boring video to most people but I rather enjoy youtube drama and spurious lawsuits being slapped down.) I've been following this since the original spat two years ago. It's a hell of a saga and well worth the time investment if you care about freedom of speech, butthurt, DMCA takedown abuse and angry bitter asset flippers.

If you can't work out if he is from the Florida of Florida Florida with that knowledge already at your disposal then answering your question won't help. Ahem. In Australia "boxed wine" should be correctly referred to by it's correct name, the "goon bag". Which is pretty appropriate for SA really. Bonus tip: After you've had enough it makes a good pillow.

Also if you ever find yourself in a shared accommodation situation where the people you live with are drinking and you're the late one back "home" then that is exactly the correct time to produce your goon bag. Don't bother with a glass. Just pour it straight in your mouth. ^ Beautiful!

Why not just cut to the chase and save money by consuming raw brown sugar right out of the bag. 2KG should last you a couple lunches. Use a permanent marker pen to write "diet" on the side of the packaging so you can convince yourself you're eating ok.

chitoryu12 posted:The point behind tipping was supposed to be rewarding good service with extra money. It seems like every failure is by places that do something weird like eliminating tipping altogether or adding automatic gratuity to the meal and then wondering why it confuses people. Don't forget to tip your customs agent for smiling when they stamp your passport or the parcel delivery dude when you need to sign for a thing someone sent you. US politicians must have amazing customer service because holy poo poo do they rake it in with the tips.

Slugnoid posted:Apple is at fault because they breached the Australian Consumer Law. In Australia, if a company sells someone a defective product, or if a defect appears 'within a reasonable time' they must refund (or at least replace) by law, no matter what the fine print on the contract says. It also helps that the Gov't, and not the company gets to decide what is a reasonable time so it's usually quite generous (my smart TV is guaranteed by law for about 4 years). It's a legislated warranty and it can't be voided in any way by any company's terms and conditions. Yeah Australian consumer law is actually really great and I feel sorry for the Yanks because they get fuuucked.

Facebook Aunt posted:Right. But once he refused to leave he was trespassing, which is illegal. The police are probably in the clear here. From what I understand about your weird American laws because he his luggage was accepted onto the plane and he was seated the airline was required to offer him fourfold compensation for his ticket price which they did not. So they are in violation of whatever federal law that is before the physical assault matter comes into play regardless. Maybe there is an argument that they called the police on him improperly? Not a lawyer, gently caress if I know, but I'm pretty sure it's not an open and shut "get hosed peasant" matter for the passenger.

I imagine that same offer extended to those that were chosen randomly. Sure but $800 worth of coupons wasn't the fourfold compensation they were required to offer.

steinrokkan posted:Surely the greatest problem was that the police immediately proceeded to brutalize an innocent man at the slightest sign of dissent. The airline company probably had a legitimate reason to need an extra seat to get their man to a destination, and AFAIK they didn't order the passenger to get beaten up and dragged along the floor like a carcass at the slaughterhouse. That's just how america rolls now.
