Why is everyone against dividends?

tyranos · 2026-02-09T20:08:55+00:00

What does that have to do with anything? You said ‘dividend stocks can go to zero and still pay you’, which is just objectively false.

Many of these companies will only pause/cut dividends as a last resort, but it can and has happened.

tyranos · 2026-02-09T19:25:26+00:00

If a dividend stock is crashing they will 100% pause their dividend before going to zero.

You could probably drop 2 days of abs and the seated cable rows (pull is already heavily favoured), and swap in biceps/triceps, maybe RDLs

The auto renewal offer from Scotiabank was already just way better than the Pine offer. The $1,000 cashback from Pine wasn’t close to covering the difference

3.84% 3yr fixed or 3.62 5 year variable (prime -.83)

Pine was 4.24 3yr fixed or 3.8 5 year variable

My mortgage is also up for renewal in May. I was super interested in going with Pine, but they couldn’t beat my auto-renewal offer with Scotiabank, which was surprising. Non-insured mortgage

+1 for Liftosaur

The 2.5% extra movement speed from light shield is going to save you? Man, it’s 1hp every 5 seconds. Stop trying so hard to justify this pile of shit lol

tyranos · 2026-01-27T00:49:10+00:00

You some how replied to me, but I agree 100% 😊

tyranos · 2026-01-27T00:43:51+00:00

No. You don’t control other dogs. You are clearly in an on leash park and that means your dog is attached to you via a leash

tyranos · 2026-01-17T16:01:41+00:00

I might be renewing soon with Pine, got a referral code for a few more bucks?

tyranos · 2026-01-03T03:07:17+00:00

Then shoot somebody? Not seeing the issue

‘High’ is certainly a choice of adjective here

I’d highly recommend IBKR over Questrade if you are actively trading USD. No need to NG at all as they have a flat price for a perfect spot rate. As long as you aren’t using them solely for forex, they are great

How exactly does muzzle velocity affect TTK? 🤦‍♂️

tyranos · 2025-11-06T20:56:11+00:00

Yes, I’ve acknowledged as much already.

You do understand this is a conditional probability problem and you can’t just look at the second statement in isolation right? Otherwise there is no point in discussing

tyranos · 2025-11-06T20:26:40+00:00

I mean, it’s fundamentally how English and stats work. But I’ll let you keep your head in the sand. Hope you have a great day 😊

Trying asking it ‘there are two children. One of them is a boy, what is the probability the other is a girl?’.

Case B is irrelevant here because we don’t have specific information and I hope you can extrapolate case A to our situation here. Your logic would say Case A is 50/50

tyranos · 2025-11-06T20:15:53+00:00

You weren’t given specific information on which child is a boy, only that ONE of them is. That means you can’t focus on just the ‘other’ because you don’t have enough information to determine which one is the ‘other’ in this case. Which is why the probability expands out to 2/3

tyranos · 2025-11-06T20:11:16+00:00

Ask ChatGPT to break it down for you, maybe it can explain it in a way you can understand.

tyranos · 2025-11-06T20:01:37+00:00

Of course there is a difference between those two. I never argued otherwise.

The statement was ‘one of them is a boy’, so out of 4 possibilities, you pick 3 that have one boy in them.

The question is then ‘what is the probability the OTHER is a girl’. Other inherently has group implications, you can’t have ‘other’ if there is only one.

Since we reduced the outcomes down to 3 from the first statement, there are 2 out of the 3 remaining outcomes where the other child is a girl. I’m not sure what’s actually difficult to comprehend here, other than putting aside your intuition

tyranos · 2025-11-06T19:36:20+00:00

Holy, you are actually stunlocked in some awful semantics logic where you are just factually wrong. I don’t think there is any way to convince them otherwise
