3rd sentence of the article:

Indicted on three counts involving money laundering and wire fraud, the Charlotte-area man faces a maximum of 20 years per charge.

If you follow the article to the press release:

SMITH, 52, of Cornelius, North Carolina, is charged with wire fraud conspiracy, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison; wire fraud, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison; and money laundering conspiracy, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.

Infinite money glitch?

I mean there’s a time and a place.

What if someone has gamepass or a ton of free games on EGS?

Is this a joke?

Half the icons on the screen are Dunkin Donuts or McDonald’s and any time you stop at a light a banner add covers have the screen.

They have those in the US too.

Such an obvious scam. “Do this thing that might lower your rates.”*

~in 99.99% of cases rates increased~

Isn’t everyone’s phone also their refrigerator?

I assume it means “minimum 15 years before eligible for parole.”

I didn’t believe you, but was surprised to learn this is actually true.

The goods inside these stores — Doritos, sunglasses, lotto tickets, energy drinks — only account for ~30% of the average gas station’s revenue, yet bring in 70% of the profit.

The law does apply to social media posts.

The social media company has to mark sponsored content and give users the means to do so themselves (when the partnership is between the user and a third party rather than the social media company).

Unfortunately it’s hard to prove and profitable to lie.

I don’t have nearly enough tinfoil for this

I’ve been asking why cars don’t have more obvious visual indicators since I was like 8 years old.

It’s pretty weird that we’re basically just working with 2 sets of lights and blinkers at this point.

For AV’s specifically, a pretty significant/obvious missed feature is some indicator that the car “sees” you. Pedestrians make eye contact with drivers to check if crossing is safe. How is there no equivalent for AV’s??? It’s such an obvious miss.

It’s okay. I’ve misspelled “peek” as “peak” multiple times in the last week.

English just be like that.

It will also contradict itself and make the same mistakes even if you point them out.

Can be useful as a starting point, but you basically need to fact check everything it says.

Wait… am I an AI?

Might have to block this bot if it posts puff piece CEO bullshit under the guise of “technology.”

Anybody who has a skill they’re paid for?

Anybody who respects IP?

Anybody who can empathize?

Damn. This makes so much sense but is also so disheartening.

They had essentially a perfect product and a total monopoly over their market. Apparently, even that isn’t enough for some executives.

What’s even the point of trying to double or triple dip at that point? Maybe they made more money in the decade they got away with it, but the product is considerably worse than it used to be and now their dirty laundry is out in the open.

Shit’s depressing.
