This is going to be a blast.

LMDE or plain Mint. Or just go for Debian.

I don’t know what Cashapp is but I’m going to take the risk and say it’s a fintech that handles direct money services. How off am I?

But I’m talking about a bank. The institution only exists through an app. Let’s say you do a odd job and you get paid cash. You can’t deposit that money: there is no place or way to do so.

We’re talking of what is, technically a bank (Moey), that entered my country through another bank. What is even stranger is that you can’t even go to one of those banks and make a deposit on you account.

I use the services of what you can consider the most de-materialized bank in my country, which has less than twenty physical locations in the entire country, but they have a very robust help line and you can use the locations of another bank in the same group to deposit money to your account.

But Moey? Either the money is wired in or your stuck.

I’m shocked.

Right off the top of my head, I can mention an entire finacial institution that only exists through an app. No website, no physical locations, no nothing. It’s one app and that is it.

Hey! Riding the Battle Cat in the first panel, then a jet rider on the second!

How long until someone saya “F it, I’m hacking and disassembling the parts I don’t want on this.”?

Will this be done through funding colleges and universities, doctorates and other publicly funded projects and initiatives?

If so, good. AI might be a good tool, after a long, curated, legally directed and supervised, period of investigation, to create safe tools for public use.

If not, and this money is to be thrown out to private companies, with little to no oversight, it is pure waste of resources, badly needed to fund other social sectors.

I’ve already took a look at it bu on my phone it gets muddy. I have to take a break and sit at the computer to go in peth into all the information there.

Shit. That’s a declaration of war, if I’ve ever seen one. That has to be stopped. It goes against, blatantly, the most basic rights of self affirmation.

LOL

I can never not laugh at that kind of reply.

That is…an interesting shopping list.

Do I dare ask: planning a big party?

Good. Perhaps while all the idiots are busy devising a “plan” to address this, those evil brain leave everyone else alone.

That’s correct. My country does not observe it.

I pay those. I have a plot of land and pay tax on it.

Any other suggestion?

What is the alternative? Asking honestly.

Essential goods have a 6% taxation in my country (Portugal). This also applies to the first 200kw/h you use in your home.

Then there is a 13% for services, like restaurants. I think wine is also taxed thia way.

The higher tier is reserved for non essential items, like cookies, chocolate, fuels (which are technically being double taxed), cars, etc.

We also pay a direct contribution for our social security system (11% over your gross salary, monthly), plus a direct taxation over our overall monthly salary (the minimum wage workers are exempt from this).

The discussiom on these taxes is long, old and boring but it essentially boils down to having those who want something, pay for it.

LOL

Was taught that if someone asks the price, they’re concerned with wanting to pay it.

Them being a pirate, cleaning by cannonade would be a viable option as well.
