  • You could've chosen not to victim blame, but yet you did it anyway.

    All banks in the US have similar authority, please see my lengthy post under the CFPB link elsewhere in the thread if you are actually here to discuss rather than sling cheap insults

  • TL;DR:

    • If it's an ATM or one-time debit card transaction, you have to opt-in for them to charge you a fee
    • If you didn't opt-in, they are still allowed to cover the overdraft if they want to by taking from other accounts you have with them, they just can't charge you an extra fee for doing so.
    • If the overdraft is due to a preauthorized/recurring debit card transaction, a check, ACH, or other transaction not covered by 17(b)(1), your consent doesn't matter, they get to charge you a fee.

    Please look at the wording of 17(b)(1), emphasis mine:

    Except as provided under paragraph (c) of this section, a financial institution holding a consumer's account shall not assess a fee or charge on a consumer's account for paying an ATM or one-time debit card transaction pursuant to the institution's overdraft service, unless the institution:

    The opt-in requirement is ONLY for ATM and one-time debit card transactions. For a preauthorized or recurring transaction like dinckelman was discussing, that does not apply.

    Also some relevant sections of the official interpretation of 17(b):

    1. No affirmative consent. A financial institution may pay overdrafts for ATM and one-time debit card transactions even if a consumer has not affirmatively consented or opted in to the institution's overdraft service. If the institution pays such an overdraft without the consumer's affirmative consent, however, it may not impose a fee or charge for doing so. These provisions do not limit the institution's ability to debit the consumer's account for the amount overdrawn if the institution is permitted to do so under applicable law.
    1. Outstanding Negative Balance. If a fee or charge is based on the amount of the outstanding negative balance, an institution is prohibited from assessing any such fee if the negative balance is solely attributable to an ATM or one-time debit card transaction, unless the consumer has opted into the institution's overdraft service for ATM or one-time debit card transactions. However, the rule does not prohibit an institution from assessing such a fee if the negative balance is attributable in whole or in part to a check, ACH, or other type of transaction not subject to the prohibition on assessing overdraft fees in § 1005.17(b)(1).
  • Edit: Opt-in requirement is specifically only for ATM transactions and one-time debit card transactions. It would not apply to a monthly transaction as described above. Read my post further down for full details.

    That is not necessarily true. I opened a savings account recently and their terms were basically "We normally reject transactions that would cause an overdraft but we may choose not to at our sole discretion and if we do pay it you will owe us"

  • look again. subject's right hand has 5 fingers plus a thumb

  • The upgrade pack is also free for Expansion Pack tier switch online subscribers from what I've heard at least for botw/totk. So if youre already on one of those for N64/GBA/Genesis/GameCube then it's no extra cost

  • Chrono Trigger MSRP was $70 iirc and some titles were even $80

  • I think breath of the wild has always been overpriced lol. And it's not news that Nintendo rarely ever discounts their older games. But the vast majority of people who are gonna want to play it on switch 2 already own a copy ( I hope).

    I wonder what this'll do to the price of used physical copies

  • $10 to replay it, replay meaning you already have the switch version. Or free if you have switch online expansion pack. It's only going to set you back 90 (instead of 80) if you've never owned it and you want it on switch 2

  • Get yo ass a therapist, it shouldn't be acceptable to talk about yourself like this.

  • He didn't drop the ludicrous tariffs on China. This is going to get worse again and fast.

  • They're probably going to try spinning it as China being scared (because their number is lower than Trump's number) but I think China is probably just flexing. confident they don't need to go any harder for the US to destroy itself

  • It's definitely possible; the question is whether he's stupid enough to try it yet

  • Thank goodness this is the onion. I almost bought it uncritically.

  • For 10 bucks, it better have a button combination that unlocks Mario Paint 2.

    I haven't seen a damn thing in the marketing that justifies it being anything other than free. If it's worth 10 bucks, you better show that shit off. The audacity to call it "welcome tour" with a $10 price tag is wild

  • gotta respect a bro who loves his asparagus

  • Because we've collectively continued to allow them to have them.

  • Even if old age gets him, Vance becomes the acting president, and he's every bit as evil while not being quite as senile. I highly doubt the MAGA cult is going to die alongside Trump.

  • It's heartening to see someone else sharing what's usually my line! I recommend a wooden toothpick for the aforementioned cleaning.

  • This is the first time I've seen you break character. Hope you're taking care of yourself in this challenging environment for satire.

    High rate of HTTP 5XX errors in the past day or so.

    It's probably already on your radar but I didn't see a thread* about it so I figured I would mention it.

    Seen 502 when trying to load the main page, and on occasion when viewing my feed on mobile web the page would transition to a 503 or 504 error seemingly without my input.

    Hi,

    Every so often, when I try to browse to https://fedia.io through my browser bookmark, I receive an error resolving the domain. Firefox suggests https://www.fedia.io but navigating there gives me an HSTS error (picture attached, hopefully.)

    Usually, if I check back 15 minutes or so after this occurs, https://fedia.io will load normally, and then https://www.fedia.io actually loads the landing page for:

    Books.Infosec.Exchange A Bookwyrm Instance for Infosec.Exchange

    I'm not quite sure if this is an issue with my network or a problem with the instance itself. However, I thought I would report it. Let me know if there is any other information I can provide that will be helpful in figuring this out.

    Looking for some ideas for freelance work / "side hustle"

    Title. I found out recently that I need some major dental work in the near future and I don't have a damn clue how I am going to raise the extra money. I want to explore any realistic options for increasing my earnings before I have to resort to taking on debt, and I suspect that soliciting ideas in a semi-public place like this will turn up a lot of ideas I would never have considered myself.

    I'm not very physically fit, but I am pretty good with computers generally, and I've picked up a little bit of programming in my free time this year, though I wouldn't sell myself as a freelancer in that department or anything. I am also pretty good at proofreading / nitpicking things, my regular job is in QA.

    Thank you in advance for any input.
