VideoKid posted:I’m trying to explain to my mom what’s happening and she was under the impression that all your money that you deposit in the bank is in a pile in a bank vault somewhere. Like in Harry Potter. Your mom is dead wrong, it's in a giant vault in a volcano and a centuries-old dragon is sleeping on it and if you wake the dragon by taking even one coin it will lay waste to the entire countryside in revenge.

Good news, wage inflation is slowing down! Thank u Krugman I notice he didn't comment on rents going up despite his blathering about some lagging indicator showing them going down a couple of months ago.

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:Disneyworld has a bunch of themed resorts based on real world attractions and every time I've checked the prices they are more expensive than going to the real things they're based on. It costs more to go to the Disneyworld Venetian Resort than it costs to actually go to Venice. Yeah well Venice is going to be underwater in 20 years whereas I'm not going to check exactly where Disneyworld is. lol

Bar Ran Dun posted:Thread well ahead of the discourse yet again quote:The problem here is not that our economic models don’t work at all. The models seem serviceable when things are simple and stable, when we are in a steady state with tons of past data to draw on. The problem is that the models don’t work when our economy is weird. And that’s precisely when we most need them to work. (astro)physics dumped the steady-state model 50+ years ago despite the protests of Nobel prize winners, what is economics waiting for?

Combined with this: It's clear Americans still think the US budget is 20% NASA, 30% foreign aid, 60% aid to NYC and LA (but I repeat myself), and 10% military.

Supercore life expectancy (ex. deaths of despair, misfortune, unwillingness to survive) has ticked down in the last three years but I think part of it is just consumers matching pessimistic market expectations. Hope is contagious

Justin Tyme posted:oh yeah so simple, anyone can do it! (yes it's possible, but it's not trivial or necessarily cheap, is my point) The Galaxy S5 (released April 2014) was the last mainline S-series phone with a user-removeable battery. Every major manufacturer followed along with Apple in making batteries and screens increasingly difficult to replace (partly to make phones thinner but also just because gently caress you). Apparently the S23 Ultra is easier to tear down I guess in anticipation of right to repair laws but that's a very recent development. Also there are apparently 3-4 phones right now with removable batteries - a Galaxy XCover variant I'd never heard of, the Fairphone, and a bunch of cheap Nokia garbage.

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:now that smartphones are a mature technology and there's no real reason for anyone to upgrade every year they should probably make them last a bit longer. oh well! Google and Samsung provide 3-4 years of software updates now so it's mostly just Motorola dragging their feet. Otherwise you can get by just fine going 4-5 years between upgrades as long as you don't drop your poo poo constantly. Relatedly, smartphone sales have been falling as there's no real compelling new gimmick unless you want to spend $1000+ on a folding phone I guess.
