It's really hard to know how much I'd spend a year without insurance because medicine that might cost $0 at the pharmacy with my insurance (say, antibiotics when my kid gets an ear infection) cost some random unknown amount of money without insurance.
 
The non-private insurance in Germany costs ~15% of income for regular employees up to a certain income.
 
@Sterno Antibiotics for my kids eye cost ~$30 in the US.
 
I have 100% prescription drug coverage (although I think there's a ceiling), 80% dental, up to $125 every two years for eye exams, and glasses are also at least partially covered. There's some hospital coverage in there as well. And it's all through work.
 
Sounds about right
 
5:02 PM
We paid just over $100 for a visit to the nurse at WalGreens and the prescription.
 
Then there's the whole thing where if you were going to, say, have a baby, and pay the thousands of dollars for that, insurance doesn't just cover it. You still have to pay your deductible, which I'm guessing is like $5k for me
 
I installed ransomware on someone's computer, and they paid me $61 to unlock it

This is easy money

@Sterno But that's partially a function of not having a single payer system. Canadian drug prices are lower because each province negotiates the prices of drugs instead of having a bunch of insurance companies maybe negotiating with the drug companies over what's covered.
 
@Sterno That's crazy.
I think the most I've paid is...70?/month for insurance and benefits.
 
5:04 PM
@Sterno brb, gonna probe wipqoznsmom

@fredley Ooh, another incremental?
 
@Frank Legitimate question since I have no idea: What are you paying in terms of perhaps increased tax rate on income though?
 
@Sterno 100% free. I mean 100% paid for by higher taxes. Though if your wife wants a room to herself, it costs $75 / day.
 
(I'm guessing you still win, because US health care is wtf)
 
@Sterno Aggregate, we pay ~46% of our gross income, all told.
Ish. Its bonkers.
 
5:06 PM
I think I'm around 32%
Federal, anyway. State gets some too
 
And I just realized my numbers are off by 1/2, since those are from one paycheck. So that's what I pay every 1/2 month.
 
@Frank multiplayer tho
 
@Sterno I think my effective tax rate this past year (I think both federal and provincial, but maybe just federal) was 18%. I'd have to look at my tax return to be sure, though.
 
Sigh...
CSS is making me sad
I'm setting a height in the css, but it's not doing anything, and in fact not even showing up when I inspect the element
 
@SaintWacko Nice
 
5:10 PM
@SaintWacko Have you hit Ctrl+S?
and then F5?
 
@MBraedley No
 
@MBraedley And then Ctrl F5
 
I have, however, hit :w
And then Ctrl + F5
 
@MBraedley I think you're winning
Well, probably. I mean, I'm guessing @Unionhawk's tax rate was negative or zero but I wouldn't want to be @uni
 
@Sterno Ouch. I thought your rates were lower than ours. TIL.
 
5:12 PM
@MBraedley Oof. I'd love such low taxes.
 
Oh man I can't wait to get a modem with a higher baud
 
So yes, I've confirmed that it is actually saving and getting built properly, and not having caching issues :P
 
I lose a third into various bits from every check. All of which are mandatory.
 
@JasonBerkan Well, they scale up with how much you make. If I were single it'd probably be closer to 25%
 
@Frank Don't get me wrong, I still have a good chunk coming off my pay cheque that exceeds that %18, and a lot of the difference gets tied up in my RRSP
 
5:14 PM
 
@Sterno 'Head of Household' - wtf
 
@MBraedley Yeah. Which just defers the taxes into the future.
 
@fredley SIMPLE TAX SYSTEMS TOO EZMODE FOR US
 
@Sterno Napoli pls
 
Canada federal is 15% - 33%. My province is an additional 13%-15%, so I pay somewhere around 35% in total.
 
5:17 PM
@Sterno seriously, it's like hahaha.gif designed the tax code
 
Though that doesn't include GST/PST.
 
@fredley We have the best tax tables. Nobody has better tax tables than us.
 
Something something flat income tax.
 
@Yuuki wat
 
5:20 PM
I can't even imagine what "head of household" actually means.

Q: Best way to predict area of effect of area-effect spells?

intuitedIn Baldur's Gate Enhanced, what's the best way to predict the area that will be affected by, say, Web? Obviously I want to affect enemies and not friends.

 
@StrixVaria It's the person who is generally earning the most, and under certain circumstances, could lower a family's tax burden.
 
@StrixVaria But also married, where one person doesn't work. I claim my wife as a dependent because she doesn't earn any income.
 
@Lazers2.0 Pretty sure this is a dupe
 
5:22 PM
@JasonBerkan so you hired her?
yay free stuffs??
 
@JasonBerkan According to that chart, in the US, you get better tax rates by filing jointly than by filing as "head of household" in that case.
 
@badp :P
 
@badp That man's hand is as big as his torso.
That's both amazing and ridiculous.
 
@StrixVaria Keep in mind I know nothing of US taxes. I was just guessing.
 
@StrixVaria But there may be restrictions for filing a joint return that doesn't apply to the head of household
 
5:24 PM
@Yuuki have you SEEN that sword
 
@badp Is this a double entendre?
 
professional deformation
 
@JasonBerkan Still gives me some idea what it's for.
 
For instance (and I don't know this for certain), but both partners might need to earn a certain threshold in order to file jointly.
 
@Sterno pls
 
5:25 PM
My wife doesn't work and we file joint.
 
> Head of household means you are unmarried or considered unmarried, but you maintain a home for a qualifying dependent who is not your spouse.
 
@Yuuki Ah, there it is.
 
> What Is the IRS Definition of Head of Household?

Head of Household is a filing status for single or unmarried taxpayers who keep up a home for a Qualifying Person. The Head of Household filing status has some important tax advantages over the Single filing status. If you qualify as Head of Household, you will have a lower tax rate and a higher standard deduction than a Single filer.
Also, Heads of Household must have a higher income than Single filers before they owe income tax. Do you need to file a tax return?
 
And then it is actually something completely different.
 
man this hackit game is pretty laggy

@badp I could have done badpsmom but I'm pretty sure that like Athena you sprang full-formed from the head of Zeus. But without all those cool god-like powers and good looks.

bad keming? in my chat? it's more likely than you think

@KevinvanderVelden @Wipqozn
 
5:31 PM
Cool, I blame @Wipqozn and @badp
 
I take your blame and pass it back onto you for not using the registry to force swap fonts so you can have the keming you desire
the keming of your dreams
the keming of your desires
the keming you so richly deserve

A: Isn't this just a manual search engine?

leeand00No. Because a search engine is bias in that it displays results that people have paid to "bubble to the top" as it were. People pay companies like Google, Bing, and Yahoo for "keywords" which are basically just what you type into a search engine to display the results. Also these search engines...

Isn't that...exactly like a manual search engine?

Q: Should I reroll 50 gold daily quests

TraceurIn a stingy effort to maximize my gold income, I was trying to figure out if it was worth it to reroll daily quests that award 50 gold, from a mathematical point of view only (meaning I don't care how long it takes to complete and that it's my only active quest). I did some research/calculations...

Q: Can I craft ender-lily seeds?

mabuIs there a way to get ender lily seeds by crafting? I'm using the latest version of "The 1.7.10 Pack". Thanks

 
5:53 PM
@Frank Yeah, but now you're biased by guys in their mom's basement instead of advertisers, or something. BETTER!
 
@Sterno Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
 
@Frank Kind of ... more importantly I would think is that the entire reason to exist would be to keep reference of other websites which I think we tend to frown upon since they can move their data around or just simply cease to be.
 
@Frank This guy sounds very much like he's pursuing an agenda rather than actually having an idea for an SE site with some kind of substance.
I mean, at least kenorb thinks Paranormal.SE has some sort substantive content to it.
Or at least I think he does.
 
@Yuuki Could be. All I know is that he thinks there's a distinction between his proposal and a search engine.
And I seem to be missing that distinction.
 
@Frank The last two paragraphs of his answer makes me suspicious.
 
5:57 PM
Yeah the whole eat the corn is better than eating the chicken is well... wrong :) So its not a good reason.
 
@Frank i think he is looking for a fake news search engine where it can find the answers OP wants, regardless of their truth
 
Also, how does one pay Google for keywords? I may not know much about search engines, but that straightaway sounds wrong.
 
@Yuuki i think he means the keyword advertising
 
@Yuuki Either he's talking about AdWords, and ignoring all of the organic results that aren't labeled "Ad", or he's one of those conspiracy theorists who thinks that Google sells organic result positions
 
but that is only to get listed in the "sponsored results" section
 
5:59 PM
@Yuuki Aside from being able to be 'featured' you don't really, you pay crawler-bait websites to point to yours. the reference count is one of the main underlying things search engines use to find more relevant answers.
 
@James but i'm sure google's algorithm can pick up on the crawler bait sites as less reputable and therefore less important to feed into the search results
 
@GodEmperorDune I would imagine so as well.. but the companies still exist... Sooo [shrug]
 
@James Just because they're selling something, it doesn't mean it works
 
@murgatroid99 Something something politics.
 
@murgatroid99 Very true, but that makes them liable.. unless they are a shady company to begin with they can then be held accountable
I can't tell you this is real gold you are buying and then sell you pyrite after all with out you being upset and wanting your money back.
 
6:02 PM
@James Hey man, get with the times. Doesn't matter if you're liable, you can just stall until you become President of the United States and settle.
 
@James I guess that depends on what they actually promise
 
@murgatroid99 Usually increased traffic
Its been a while since I worked near that field of business.
 
@James On the other hand, gold/pyrite fraud is a bit easier to prove substantively.
 
@Yuuki If you enter into an agreement where its not clearly defineable what the expected results are to be then a bit of the blame is on you.. and a general level of sadness expands when you realize you can not trust a person holding out a hand as you will always wonder what they have up their sleeves....
Anywho.. Off to my first dr appt for the day.. time to see if I need a procedure or more surgery or what not :/
 
@James good luck :/
 
6:07 PM
Thanks.. Don't get pancreatitis
 
@fredley is there any way to type the ARP in through keyboard?
also did you start a bridge or unofficial arqade clan
 
Tripped a breaker for my office, and can't find the panel
It's been found! I can do work again
 
@Sterno An improvmenet imo
 
6:26 PM
I am now forced to type with mini-mitts on or deal with cold hands. I'm not sure which is worse.
 
Cold hands, any time

Q: What happens if your server's maximum player limit is 0?

KWA21BTSo I have a Minecraft server and I am wondering what happens if your Minecraft server's player limit maximum is 0, because I think that is might mean infinite players.

 
@Lazers2.0 it'll crash, eventually?
 
6:48 PM
@Lazers2.0 Or it might mean no one can log on?

Did you think about @fredley again?
 
Blind Guardian is in a game again, and it released today. And is based on the books "The Dwarves"
@KevinvanderVelden No, fanboying.
 
@Arperum yussssssssssssssss
 
And the song for it is epic.
 
6:51 PM
@Arperum I don't think that "fanboying" precludes "thinking about @fredley".
 
@Lazers2.0 I'm guess that nobody can log on. If you want (effectively) infinite logons, set player limit to -1. Maybe.
 
I mean, hypothetically it's possible.

@Yuuki exactly.
 
So far right-wing has now gone from "f--k people, we're business-friendly" to "f--k people, f--k business, we're crazy"?
I mean, at least the latter had some kind of misguided sense of growing the economy and then the wealth trickling down (yeah, like that would ever happen).
 
7:06 PM
Always a good plan to "declare war" on the people who stop advertising with you. Makes other people totally want to start.
 
I'm not even sure what their game plan is here.
Like, I don't even think they have an end goal in mind.
 
I clicked on one of the Breitbart stories in that article and got slapped in the face with a Kellogg's ad
 
Just "if you don't support us, we'll fight you".
 
So they're pretty bad at their war so far since they're still serving Kellogg's ads
 
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
 
7:08 PM
I'm confused about why they think "We don't want to advertise on your site" is like some heinous insult. It's not like they don't have other people running ads (I assume)
 
@TimStone What on earth is with the retweets?
Barring the outright spam, it seems that most people are just replying to the wrong tweet.
 
They try to stay relevant, now that trump has won.
Same applies to milo
 
@Yuuki Yeah, I have no idea
 
Now I'm imagining that Breitbart actually functions exclusively on revenue from Kellog's ads, and this response is some desperate act to avoid going bankrupt
 
"Kellogg's is the only brand mom'll buy!"

Q: Do companions aim down sight or hip fire?

ExoMuteI'm going to start modding a gun for a companion soon, and I'm thinking about long barrels, stocks, etc. But then I realized that maybe they hip-fire all the time, and that would make the long barrel and stock pretty useless. So do companions aim down sight or fire guns from their hip?

> Pemberton called for five ounces of coca leaf per gallon of syrup, a significant dose; in 1891, Candler claimed his formula (altered extensively from Pemberton's original) contained only a tenth of this amount. Coca-Cola once contained an estimated nine milligrams of cocaine per glass. (For comparison, a typical dose or "line" of cocaine is 50–75 mg.[66]) In 1903, it was removed.[67]

@fredley yup I saw it
and guess what? my pebble died a few days ago. Coincidence? I think not.
Nov 28 at 8:22, by arda
Guess whose pebble is broken
Literally 3 days ago
basically I can't install anything at all and everything causes errors and stuff
 
@fredley Wait, what?
What happened to pebble?
 
It's been bought.
 
@TimStone I'm curious to see if that case actually goes anywhere; the plaintiff basically admitted that the published ingredients list clearly states there's no fruit in them...
 
@SaintWacko fitbit bought it.
 
7:36 PM
@arda FUCK
Wait
 
@KutuluMike Yeah, but not in a very apparent way, to be fair
 
Since pebble was on the edge of becoming insolvent.
 
I think it's a reasonable point but not really warranting damages
 
And they'll likely discontinue the product after the acquire.
 
I'm not actually sure how I feel about that
Fitbit isn't a bad company
 
7:37 PM
@TimStone all they have to do is claim that "Blueberry" means blueberry flavored.
 
@SaintWacko yes, but they sell overpriced stuff usually.
 
@KutuluMike I think you have to actually write that on the label for the product, not just say it later
 
And well, pebble's motto was "Smartwatch, by people, for people" or something, at least on early days. I already consider 150usd too much for PT2, and well, there's no guarantee if fitbit will up that to 200 or 250 or whatever.
 
@KutuluMike It could be viewed like a chicken "wyngz" thing, where the labeling doesn't make it clear enough in this case, I guess
 
@murgatroid99 I think you have to include that on the ingredients/nutritional stuff
but this guy was going 100% based on the tiny placard in the glass window
I think his case is kinda thin.

@murgatroid99 in mcdonalds, it says 'big mac with cheese'
 
like how all the crabcakes around here have Krab meat in them.

does it say 'cheese maybe plastic yellow stuff that smells funny'
 
@djsmiley2k I think American cheese actually counts as cheese
 
my point being food in a shop vs food which is served for consumption have entirely different rules for ingrence listing
'Subway'* doesn't actually contain sub marines

Trademarks are a valid reason to not count a food as being "misbranded"
 
And Steam also does not contain any water vapor.
 
@fredley why is network scanner v2 so slow?
 
Plus, Subway doesn't call their sandwiches "Subway", they call them "sandwiches", which is accurate
 
Steam does contain a lot of salt though.

Q: How do I get in the ball park of a cartographer map?

GigazelleI recently saved up and purchased a cartographer map: I'm the little tiny blip in the upper right, meaning that I'm pretty far away from it. How do I know which direction to go to get closer to the general vicinity of the woodland mansion?

 
/me tries to remember if mcd's still lists it as a 'hamburger' although it's 100% beef xD
 
"Hi, welcome to Subway. What would you like?" "I'd like Subway."
@djsmiley2k As opposed to what? That's what hamburgers are normally made of
 
... ham
i.e. pork
 
a beefburger is beef
wtf is wrong with things D:
 
7:49 PM
"Hamburgers" are named like that because they originate in the city of Hamburg, Germany. The term "burger" to mean a patty came later
 
@fredley is this a weird british thing?

@djsmiley2k Should I sue my local Chinese restaurants for selling 夫妻肺片 even though they contain no human meat?
 
@Yuuki I would demand that they produce this so-called General Tso who owns all the chickens.
 
I mean, if we're going to say that all food needs to literally contain what their name says rather than some sort of idiom, then I can guarantee that Chinatown will close up like that.
A not-insignificant amount of Chinese cuisine is named by idioms or historical references.
