> Amazon isn't a pawn shop Right, pawn shops are held to a higher standard. They have a relationship with the local police and are made to keep records. Amazon is a better fence than your average pawn shop.
That's not necessarily a smoking gun; public libraries often give away old books they don't want to keep around anymore. About a quarter of the books in my personal library are ex-library books, but none were stolen. Of…
> cuts into your margins It's not as though the thieves hire workers to do this for them. It's something they can do themselves while tweaking.
Accurate maybe, but very imprecise.
Removing each other from committees is a far cry from kicking each other out of Congress. That has only happened twice since the 19th century, and both times it came after a criminal conviction. Merely being an absolute…
You know Singapore unabashedly beats the shit out of thieves, right?
> "The stores are insured bro, why do you care if people steal from them? It's not your problem maaan." This is why I care. Criminals degrade society and we all suffer for their greed.
Made a new account, huh?
Who's 'we'? The user, or the web dev? Most javascript exists to scratch the itch of the webdev who made it, doing shit no user ever asked for.
Every web dev seems to think that their site specifically is the reason everybody in the world bought a computer.
> Brits should realize this is not 1921. Heh, well stated. The sun set on the British empire a long time ago. Expectations need to be adjusted accordingly.
I'm saying Bankman-Fried has hurt a few orders of magnitude more people than Alex Jones, and allowing him to give interviews and flippantly defend himself is going to cause a lot of emotional trauma.
> I don't really understand the perspective your are saying. He thinks that helping Ukraine defend themselves against a foreign invasion qualifies as "warmongering", obviously he's a Russia-aligned troll. Don't waste…
> What is the definition of violence? You've already conceded that words can hurt people (Alex Jones), so why are you trying to backpedal that now?
I bet more than one corner shop worker had money in FTX.
Once Bad Blood was published. It took a few years for the dam to break, but once it did the rest of the media piled on quick. The FTX dam broke a few weeks ago and so far the media generally seems unenthusiastic about…
The animation studio that did Stuart Little.
This matches my experience. The only people who've heard this story yet are those who keep a finger on the pulse of either tech or crypto news.
This is a huge red flag. Bankman-Fried is acting like the fix is already in. I won't believe this guy is actually going to prison until they slam the iron bars closed behind him.
Twitter or discord, why do these require me to confirm an email or phone number when reddit doesn't? Why do shop websites like Etsy require me to confirm my email address before I even decide to purchase or sell…
