100%. It’s a tactic to invalidate ND people. NT people do this to enforce control over public space (literally and mentally) and the context in which neurodiversity can exist.
you gotta admit that it makes for some funny posts though
iirc it’s from ubuntu-advantage-tools - you can remove it, but it’s set as a dependent for something important (ubuntu-minimal?) which makes it really annoying. I don’t use ubuntu anymore so hopefully someone who knows more will stop by.
You might get lucky by being more direct, but idk your situation. Good luck <3
I’m pretty sure FDIC gives the bank money rather than individuals. Very rich people sometimes do targeted bank runs for profit, the SBV collapse is a good example. It mostly works when corporate deposits exceed FDIC because hypothetically they won’t get it back (in practice they did iirc). Sorta tangentially, I think banking law people were worried(?) hopeful(?) that this sorta negates the privatize banking system broadly. Cause essentially SBV, and any bank, was backed by the fed as ‘too big to fail’. Idk everyone just stopped talking about that aspect of it a couple weeks later and it was never resolved. (lol)
Doing a bank run is hard though, because to do it you need to exceed the bank’s reserve, which is hard even as a group. Plus, it kinda doesn’t benefit the people doing it, right? Like if you did a bank run it would collapse and you’d need to apply for an account at a different bank. Maybe they’d even know you did a bank run and not accept you. (Probably not IRL, but hypothetically). You can’t really profit off of the bank collapsing unless you have a lot of money / leverage / etc.
An additional collateral attack than can be made is to simply not pay any debts (mortgages, credit cards, etc) owed to that same bank.
Debt strikes are much easier to coordinate. It’s still really really hard, but it’s easier because people tend to have a lot of debt. It’s still very risky for the people doing it. The gambit is essentially for the bank to settle for less than the total debt.

To fight nihilism broadly, but I guess also to be annoying unfortunately. I think this essay that someone linked explains why nihilism is bourgeois and evil, but I haven’t read that specific one so I’m not sure.
tbh for that part of the post I just looked up “bourgeois nihilism guy” and took the first result. I don’t think that’s usually the takeaway though.
Sorry this was sorta vagueposting / badposting on my end. My point is all nihilism is bourgeois and reactionary. It’s to make fun of ‘nihilists’.

Cool phrase, is it from something?
This supports my idea that every time a rich person gives me advice they should need to physically hand me cash for the entire time they’re speaking.
iirc Trump hates windmills because there was a windfarm created near his golf course.
huh, well maybe we could add a derivative… does anyone have data on the change in the rate of the rate of change of the change in the rate of change of a dollar’s value when purchasing an average ‘basket’ of commodities?
Yo, I had a psychiatrist who disappeared once and I called the clinic and they were like “so and so doesn’t work here and I don’t know who that is. You have the wrong number.” and I was like “No?? wtf??” I think the receptionist was just mean or something but they did just leave and ghost everyone. I still don’t know the full story lol.
Probably schools tbh, there have been a lot of papers floated about using a camera and AI to tell if students are paying attention or cheating or whatever. There’s already exammonitor & others using webcams so it’s not a huge leap to make.
yeah, that makes sense. I guess it just feels like a dare.
