Prosecuting arsonists doesn't unwind time, bro.

Well, it falls to a jurisdiction in which there is a high chance of selective regulatory oversight/enforcement, given the conflict of interest with Trump's family vested interest in prediction markets.

"I immediately notice an issue."

Wow they must really regret not working with a person as smart as you. (Honestly, slashdot is chock full of wannabes these days)

"Hell yeah, a credit card!" - people I don't get

Free speech includes lying.

These platforms are starting to let people bet on wildfire activity. What a fun way of incentivizing arsonists.

You're conflating your emotions with facts, in a field you very likely know very little about.

Merit should always consider strictly value.

Always anonymous, always cowards.

The $5K a year just gives you a $300 per person per visit discount. So pays itself back in 15 visits or so.

Plenty of us nerds can afford this and want to see news about this.

Insane Clown Posse, is that you?

Once they realized you'd pay the hire price, if the fees are gone, the businesses are just going to go 'yummy more money for me'.

This is dumb shit. Many stores around me explicitly charge you the difference if you pay by credit card to cover the service fee.

I have never had my debit card compromised. Ever. The fact that it's a direct line is what makes it not usable to buy things online, etc (generally). But it's very nice to use in person - I like that when I spend money, I'm actually spending it and not creating debt. (Don't get me wrong, I always pay off my credit card bills every month, which are not trivial sums .. but I'm only using them because they're the only things you can use online.)

Credit cards, on the other hand - we all pay for the insurance. It's not really the banks problem, its a problem that you have protection for because you pay for it.

"Just give me 1% in cash"

That's still money that comes from somewhere. Like .. from you.
