10:03 <@dasunt> So, um, I have 4 - 7 mortgage payments left.
10:09 <@Dolemite> yay
10:09 <@dasunt> My wife is already feeling it.
10:10 <@dasunt> She told me yesterday they wanted to transfer her to a different location, and she said no, not caring if they fired her or not.
10:10 <@dasunt> In her words, she could work at Aldi's at this point and not have to worry about meeting the bills.
10:43 <@dasunt> So Oklahoma has a thing called personal property taxes?
10:43 <@dasunt> WTF?
10:47 <@oddball> aestetix: Well, Obama got awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for... not being Bush.  Got nominated before he took office.
11:09 <@Mirage> dasunt: what's strange about property tax?
11:15 <@dasunt> Mirage: _Personal_ property tax.
11:15 <@dasunt> As in, they tax your possessions.
11:15 <@Mirage> As in cars, houses, buildings, etc...right?
11:16 <@dasunt> As in furniture, jewelry, etc.
11:16 <@Mirage> Since when..  link?
11:17 <@dasunt> https://taxfoundation.org/states-moving-away-taxes-tangible-personal-property/
11:17 < PigBot> Title: States Moving Away From Taxes on Tangible Personal Property - Tax Foundation (at taxfoundation.org) http://tinyurl.com/yb3cr6ws
11:17 <@dasunt> " All states except Oklahoma have exempted from their TPP tax goods that are not used for the production of income, such as household items like furniture and jewelry"
11:21 <@Mirage> "Even in Oklahoma, only six of the 77 counties in the state levy this tax on household property"
11:21 <@Mirage> So it's probably only actually being levied around OKC and Tulsa.
11:22 <@Mirage> OK is so poor with the decline of oil that they have to make whatever money they can however they can.
11:22 <@Mirage> Most of the rural school districts don't even hve school every weekday anymore bcause they can't afford it.
11:23 <@dasunt> I heard about this today, when someone posted in a forum about being pissed that the tax assessor came over and was poking around their house.
11:23 <@dasunt> My first thought was it was a scam.
11:24 <@Mirage> I think I saw in there that VA has taxation of furniture, etc on the books but doesn't really enforce it.
11:25 <@Mirage> I haven't lived in or done OK state taxes since 1997 and didn't really own or make shit, so I dunno.
11:26 <@dasunt> I've only been to OK once.
11:27 <@dasunt> I heard they recently lost the OK teacher of the year to Texas, because the guy wanted better pay.  Which makes me really wonder about that state.
11:29 <@Mirage> some of my coworkers are idiots.  Because we're getting migrated from Virtustream to Dell this month, a statement of our adjusted 'Dell' pay schedules was sent out.   They increased the base and lowered the bonus % so that the total amount is the same, but yet some of the guys are up in arms over it.
11:29 <@dasunt> I read that as "Virus stream" at first.
11:30 <@Mirage> I personally think that a higher base and lower bonus % is better because they don't HAVE to pay the bonus.
11:31 <@dasunt> I agree.
11:32 <@dasunt> Huh, looked up the OK teacher that quit, and it has his breakdown between OK and TX.
11:33 <@dasunt> (financial breakdown).
11:33 <@dasunt> He and his wife are both teachers, and they make an extra $3,000/mo in takehome in Texas.
11:34 <@dasunt> It looks like the expenses are under $1k more/mo - Rent's $500 higher, daycare is $350 higher.
11:40 <@Mirage> TX also doesn't have a state income tax
11:40 <@dasunt> Our state does.  It's not too bad.
11:57 <@Dagmar> Mirage: They're probably up in arms because Dell treats their employees like crap.

12:10 <@dasunt> Things I won't click.
12:37 <@_NSAKEY> dasunt: Things I would only click at a 2600 meeting with a projector.
14:03 <@Corydon76> You mean like this link? https://boybutter.com/

14:04 <@Dickie> Hellooooooo
14:07 <@Dolemite> And with that, I'd say it's a great time to go home and not think about where this conversation is heading next
14:08 <@Corydon76> You mean like The Silver Collection on Tumblr?
14:09 <@Corydon76> Or maybe https://www.forttroff.com/ NSFW
14:09 < PigBot> Title: Fort Troff - Gay Sex Toys, Gear, Underwear, Lube (at www.forttroff.com) http://tinyurl.com/otjatqh
14:11 <@Dickie> If I use those toys heterosexually, is that appropriation?
14:11 <@Corydon76> Only if parade around in public while using them.
14:13 <@Corydon76> Though if you want to walk around with a harness on at PhreakNIC, I'll forgive the cultural appropriation.
14:13 <@Corydon76> They're not nearly as sexual as some of the other gear on that site.
14:15 <@Corydon76> e.g. https://www.forttroff.com/product/03001_FT_BREEDWELL_GLOW_HARNESS_GREEN.html semi-NSFW
14:15 < PigBot> Title: Fort Troff - Breedwell GLOW Harness >>> GREEN (at www.forttroff.com) http://tinyurl.com/y8268f88
14:16 <@Corydon76> "PigBot" takes on a whole other meaning on that site.
15:05 <@Mirage> damn, Tom Thumb (grocery) has chips and snacks on a massive superbowl firesale.  time to stock up
15:18 <@Dagmar> Wow
15:18 <@Dagmar> THis 1099-K is so wildly wrong
15:18 <@Dagmar> i'm pretty sure I didn't make nine hundred thousand dollars in transactions
15:19 <@Dagmar> Certainly not in September
15:19 <@Dagmar> Definitely didn't do 3.3 million dollars in transactions
15:28 <@dasunt> Did the SpaceX rocket that unexpectedly floated ever sink?
15:37 <@Mirage> lol...i got a notification by mail to my current TX address for renewing my TN driver license.
15:40 <@Mirage> i'm curious as to how TN has my current TX address since this isn't where I moved to from there.
15:53 <@_NSAKEY> Mirage: How much stuff is your current TX address on?
16:31 <@Dagmar> I'm curious as to how GDAX decided I did three million dollars in anything
16:32 <@Dagmar> If they can gimme that three mil, I'll gladly pay the taxes from it
16:33 <@dasunt> Dagmar: Are you rich?
16:33 <@dasunt> Alternatively, did you do many small transactions, say a $1k transaction 3,000 times?
16:36 <@Dagmar> I already checked that
16:36 <@Dagmar> The total volume of _all_ my transactions doesn't amount to that
16:36 <@Dagmar> ...not to mention the aggregate total would kind of useless.
16:36 <@Dagmar> I don't know whose information they sent me but it wasn't mine
16:37 <@Dagmar> I'm making an extra copy of the transaction CSVs right now
16:38 <@Dagmar> I'm pretty sure thanks to how often i've been taken away from the terminal at the precisely wrong time that I'm probably in the negative for the year anyway
16:45 <@dasunt>  Is this for Crypto?
16:45 <@Dagmar> Yeah
16:45 <@dasunt> I'd humblebrag that my stocks are doing great, but I'm rather pissed they are at a higher price.
16:45 <@Dagmar> A number like three _million_ should not have been anywhere on my 1099-K
16:47 <@dasunt> Maybe you sleepwalk and are a financial genius in your sleep.
16:47 <@Dagmar> Hey, like i said, if they'll gimme that three million, I'll pay taxes on it
16:47 <@Dagmar> Otherwise it's just laughably wrong
16:48 <@Dagmar> ...and not particularly useful
16:48 <@dasunt> Reminds me when they were rolling out the health exchanges and a friend's income showed up as a million or so.
