“Median” implied the normalized amount

Last I heard it takes 2.5 median incomes to afford a median priced home.
Sounds about right for the left coast at least

I was going to say, people who talk about high prices usually use a specific area that has the highest average out of the lot. That those pictures of gas being $8+gal all come from areas that already suffer from extreme self imposed bloat.
It's still $2.49gal here baybee.

Unless payment processers are being forced by governments to decline payments, they are well within their rights as an involved party in a transaction to decline being a part of that transaction. The alternatives would be to violate the NAP and force an unwilling transaction through intimidation and force via the State, or to use a different payment method that will process the payment.
It's only censorship if it's a result of State actions.
peak folio
Refusing a payment for fraud is one thing, refusing payment because they don’t like Japanese manga absolutely crosses the line. There is no ambiguity here.
If you’ve been following the situation you’d know that nothing you pointed out is true.
royal shuttle
Not really, there are 3 parties involved when you try to make any exchange when using a payment processer. In order to not violate the NAP, each of the 3 parties must engage in the transaction voluntarily. If you don't want your money to be declined for some purchases due to the preferences of a 3rd party you bring into the transaction, then use a different payment method that doesn't include an unwilling 3rd party. That would either be a competing payment company or a direct payment solution like a stable crypto currency.

I feel like payment processing needs some sort of Metamorphosis.
And devolve back to what it's supposed to be there for, just processing the Fakku payment.
teal iron
I feel like the job of a payment processor is to process payment, and anything further should be handled by other parties
I don't know why they're so worried about their "reputation" like
Nobody even thinks of you as a party, you are viewed as a machine, another cog in the system, a mindless entity which will carry out its function
And even if people didn't like Visa where would they go
Mastercard?
There are literally two options and I think a significant portion of the population genuinely thinks they are the same thing
"protecting reputation" is a performative act to entertain the delusion that they aren't a monopoly
humble parrot
Illegal debanking like this has hurt their "reputation" more tbh
teal iron
Yeah exactly, when people thought of them as nothing but another cog, they were pretty well trusted
But now that this otherwise forgettable entity is suddenly demanding that its conditions be met or else, I would be more reluctant to trust them
Like what if they make an irrational demand that affects me?

We WFH before it was cool

I actually had a teacher ask us once why we growned so much at homework.
She said she made sure to assign items that wouldn't take more than 30 minutes and we get 2 afternoons to complete it.
And we piped up with how we have 8 classes in the span of 2 days.
We have homework from all 8.
We get home 3:30/4:00 with 4 assigments an afternoon.
If they take 30 minutes each, and we understand it, that is 2 hours of homework.
Now it is 5:30/6:00 pm.
Dinner time.
It is now 6:30/7:00 pm.
Showers 7:30/8:00 pm.
That gives us 1 to 2 hours of us time if we don't have chores.
When I see that commercial of the woman in a parent teacher meeting doing this math on the board, it makes me wonder if it was someone in that class making the commercial xD
After that day, the teacher made sure we had time in class to do homework she assigned or other homework.
The worst were those teachers that assigned Friday homework.
"You have all weekend, that is plenty of time."

She was like 3 or 4 years old.

Yeah I mostly avoid ground meat in general. It's either just decent or a bacteria factory
I do sometimes get walmart rotisserie chicken (sam's, same brand) but I have to be in the mood to cut up and portion an entire chicken, which is not often lol. I honestly don't get enough protein because my only quick options are breaded nuggets/fish sticks or canned anchovies/pouched salmon (both scents my SO loathes)
and the anchovies aren't even cured. Just fresh in oil which has barely any smell compared to most cured anchovies
