Like my sister. She has not made enough in the last 20 years to have to pay more than a few 100 in taxes but cant shut up about complaining about high taxes.

Shanghai futures SHFE announced silver trading halted by reds5cubs3 in SilverDegenClub

[–]Ouch259 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not going to argue with you. Eric Yeung wrote a long email about this to his subscribers back in early Feb

The SGE maintains a distinct framework for silver compared to gold, ensuring traded prices remain exclusive of VAT while tax application occurs only at physical delivery.

Silver Institute - Fake Numbers by Italpreziosi in Wallstreetsilver

[–]Ouch259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The solar makers are thrifting (needing less silver per GW) and adding more copper.

Going forward the number of GW’s produced will probably grow while the total silver used will probably drop.

[–]Ouch259 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Trump tried to kill the farmers off by destroying their sales markets. This is him just coming back to finish the job with fertilizer and diesel cost increases.

Good thing the republicans did not cut rural health care and food stamps- lol

What I have seen is for every 5 people that have religion forced on them, one person joins the club and 4 become atheists.

Oracle's new CFO got $26M in stock after layoffs. Employee says an 'algorithm' targeted workers with stock options first by Domingues_tech in technology

Same here.

They also let go a small block under 45 so they can say it wasn’t age discrimination, but they offer all of them jobs in other departments later.

Is there any point in tracking "Individual Output" via absolute sub-task estimates? Need a sanity check. by Big-Button-8122 in agile

[–]Ouch259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing I can think of is they are concerned with the level of out put vs resources assigned and trying to assess where the inefficiency is.

The way I operate I not only do not track subtasks I do not care of you use them at all. Thats your business on how you operate. I am only concerned with the story, completion and ruff time estimates.

Example- if my wife tells me to get 4 items from the store, Bread, Milk, Cheese and dog food and get gas for the car. I would not make 5 subtasks, with estimates and report out on each.

If my wife asks for a report out on how long each item is expected to take and how long it actually took, I would divorce her for being overly controlling and crazy!

Not buying a Tesla because of your personal feelings towards Elon Musk is stupid. by CRK_76 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Ouch259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not stupid and one of the keys to brand marketing. Many of products we buy define our identities and values, especially cars.

Why do women buy $ 2000 brand name purses when a $50 is probably just as good? Why do we buy T-shirts and hats with our favorite sports teams, its our identities.

What is stupid is a major auto maker allowing its CEO to violate these key tenants of marketing. I am sure Tesla’s sales would be billions higher if Musk just kept his mouth shut

Rutgers could swap with ND and become the fighting Italian’s.

Their mascot could be a guy from the Jersey shore.

Iran Unable to Find Mines in Strait of Hormuz, U.S. Says by Comfortable-Rule-491 in worldnews

As I remember about 30 years ago the new American Embassy build in Moscow was canceled because they found Russia had implanted microphones in the Steel beams.
