08:11 <ConfusionRift> Not really, since the Bedrock Edition login is via Microsoft Account. Actually, I believe both Windows and Java editions require it now.

13:09 <uni> imagine someone paid 20 times your salary lecturing you on passion
13:10 <Cyan_Spark> Within a 50-mile radius of uni!
13:10 <Cyan_Spark> uni did you pay for SAFRA
13:10 <uni> that puts you possibly in about three different countries~
13:10 <uni> nope!
13:10 <Cyan_Spark> I never did, it's a waste

13:14 <Cyan_Spark> Really? Huh. I'm enjoying myself in this uni though!
13:15 <Cyan_Spark> Do you order in much, uni?
13:15 <uni> mmmh not really
13:15 <uni> only sometimes during nights
13:15 <Cyan_Spark> I only did... once, saved me lots of money eating off the catered food
13:16 <Cyan_Spark> ...Actually I can't remember if I ever did at all
13:16 <Cyan_Spark> Maybe once or twice at the canteen, but almost always catered
13:16 <uni> *night duties
13:16 <uni> I just realised how confusing the contraction is
13:16 <Cyan_Spark> You don't get meals at night?
13:17 <Cyan_Spark> Can't imagine it'd be pleasant living off night snacks alone...

13:19 <Cyan_Spark> Dang, that sucks
13:21 <Cyan_Spark> If you're planning on saving, though, try to open one of those fancy military saver accounts the banks have
13:22 <Cyan_Spark> I never really spent much of my allowance, and I'm kicking myself for losing out on the interest rates X3
13:27 <RazorSharpFang> What sort of interest rate would they even be able to offer when interest rates are at an all time global low?
13:28 <Cyan_Spark> Well, maybe not now
13:33 <uni> haha third party income~
13:33 <Cyan_Spark> Naw, not income
13:34 <Cyan_Spark> Just keeping pace with inflation
13:34 <uni> huh I don't actually know my account's interest rate
13:34 <uni> how terrible
13:34 <Cyan_Spark> It's probably 0.015%
13:34 <Cyan_Spark> uh
13:34 <Cyan_Spark> 0.15%
13:35 <uni> hmm okay
13:35 <Cyan_Spark> The account which you're getting your allowance deposited in, at least
13:35 <uni> yeah
13:36 <RazorSharpFang> 0.15% is definitely less than the target of inflation, which is 2% for the US
13:36 <Cyan_Spark> Indeed
13:37 <Cyan_Spark> I have solid money currently sitting at 1.5%
13:37 <Cyan_Spark> frozen? solid? crystallized?
13:37 <Cyan_Spark> I dunno, whatever it is, it's not liquid money
13:37 <RazorSharpFang> illiquid
13:37 <RazorSharpFang> Like a Term Deposit etc
13:37 <Cyan_Spark> Mhm
13:38 <RazorSharpFang> Right now, my net-liquidation-value changes on a day-to-day basis, which makes %-annual-return annoying to calculate.
13:38 <uni> hehe illiquid is such a funny looking word
13:38 <Cyan_Spark> Gaseous money
13:38 * Cyan_Spark nods
13:38 <uni> like illithid

14:00 <Cyan_Spark> Bubble, bubble...
14:00 <Cyan_Spark> Will I be able to exit before it pops?
14:02 <Cyan_Spark> I'm wondering when or how inflation will actually take root
14:03 * Cyan_Spark looks up stock code "GOLD"
14:14 <RazorSharpFang> Don't be silly about it. Inflation doesn't suddenly take root unless the government spends trillions of dollars buying back government bonds.
14:18 <Cyan_Spark> Would be fun to hold an ounce of gold, though
14:19 <Cyan_Spark> It's about $2,000 at current prices

14:30 <Cyan_Spark> And there's the Tesla rocket
14:30 <Cyan_Spark> Opening at 460
14:30 <RazorSharpFang> Nyoom
14:30 <RazorSharpFang> I don't have enough capital to be selling puts against Tsla yet though. It's expensive.
14:31 <Cyan_Spark> Mmm
14:31 <Cyan_Spark> Markets opening red?
14:31 <RazorSharpFang> Yes. Pull-back day
14:32 <Cyan_Spark> Tesla down on 454
14:32 <RazorSharpFang> Drifting around the 454, 455 mark for me.
14:33 <RazorSharpFang> Bought back my put on Starbucks last night while I was asleep apparently. Only found out when I logged in this morning.
14:34 <Cyan_Spark> Is that... a good thing or a bad thing?
14:35 <RazorSharpFang> It's a good thing, because I bought it back for half of what I sold it for. Profit.
14:37 <Cyan_Spark> Ah
14:41 <Cyan_Spark> Market seems cyclic these days
14:41 <Cyan_Spark> One day it's bullish, the next day it's bearish
14:42 <RazorSharpFang> It will tease with predictability only to immediately throttle you when you play that way
14:42 <Cyan_Spark> Indeed
14:43 <Cyan_Spark> The mind remembers patterns better than dissonance
14:44 <RazorSharpFang> And Tsla is back up to 460
14:44 <Cyan_Spark> How curious
14:46 <Cyan_Spark> Tesla's P/E is so high
14:46 <RazorSharpFang> I guess you could say they were paying a ... premium
14:46 <Cyan_Spark> It must be running on rarified air
14:47 <Cyan_Spark> I'm guessing 30 is a typical P/E?
14:47 <RazorSharpFang> It varies by a lot.
14:47 <RazorSharpFang> Check out VISA P/E
14:47 <Cyan_Spark> 43.04
14:48 <Cyan_Spark> Does P/E determine profit targets?
14:48 <RazorSharpFang> I consider Visa and Mastercard to be overvalued myself, but perhaps I'm just a naysayer.
14:48 <Cyan_Spark> Whenever they say a company smashes or misses expectations
14:48 <Cyan_Spark> But Visa and Mastercard, they can't die, can they?
14:48 <RazorSharpFang> Presumably, unless Crypto takes off (haha)
14:49 <Cyan_Spark> What if somehow Visa found a way to get entangled with Crypto
14:49 <Cyan_Spark> Which, I suspect, they're already doing
14:50 <RazorSharpFang> Well, that would be difficult to do well. Decentralised and all.
14:50 <RazorSharpFang> Might just be a broker same as Bitfineon etc
14:50 <Cyan_Spark> https://crypto.com/en/cards.html
14:50 <Cyan_Spark> Visa
14:50 <RazorSharpFang> `Cardholders cannot load cryptocurrency onto their MCO Visa Card.`
14:51 <RazorSharpFang> The conversion is done the moment you put it on the card.
14:51 <Cyan_Spark> Aha
14:51 <Cyan_Spark> So they still hold a cash reserve
14:52 <RazorSharpFang> It is specifically merchants not taking cryptos as a form of payment that makes cryptos unviable currencies today.
14:53 <RazorSharpFang> But if Visa were to come out with a payment system that works universally across cryptos, that might be something, but market penetration would take a while.
14:53 <RazorSharpFang> And why would they if they've already got literally half the market?
15:00 <Cyan_Spark> 448.54 now
15:00 <Cyan_Spark> Tesla's re-entering the atmosphere
15:00 <RazorSharpFang> Looks like the doubters and weak-hands have left Tsla.
15:12 <Cyan_Spark> The what now?
15:13 <RazorSharpFang> The people who are weak in their convictions about Tesla.
15:16 <Cyan_Spark> But it dropped
15:16 <Cyan_Spark> Oh, so they gave up hopes of higher stock
15:17 <RazorSharpFang> It is people selling stock that drops its price.
15:17 <Cyan_Spark> Yeah
15:19 <Cyan_Spark> Well, doing nothing is also an option for me
15:19 <Cyan_Spark> Could always choose 1.X%
15:19 <Cyan_Spark> From fixed deposits
15:20 <RazorSharpFang> It is always an option, but I'm quite happy doing what I'm doing. Higher risk, because I'm young and have the time to sit if things go poorly on a trade.
15:24 <Cyan_Spark> Hard to tell whether the real recession is coming or has already passed
15:27 <RazorSharpFang> True that. I think if Donald's lawsuits are successful that might cause a market shock
15:29 <Cyan_Spark> Successful in Donald's favor?
15:30 <Cyan_Spark> And shock in which direction?
15:30 <RazorSharpFang> Yeah. My terminology is that a lawsuit is "successful" if it goes in the litigants' direction
15:32 <Cyan_Spark> What might he do? Vehemently deny stimulus out of spite?
15:32 <RazorSharpFang> Well, a lot of the stimulus was dependent on someone less... volatile being in power. Someone less Tariff-Happy
15:33 <Cyan_Spark> So you're saying if Donald's back in the game the market could nosedive
15:33 <RazorSharpFang> Sorry, meant much of the gains was ...
15:34 <RazorSharpFang> And yeah, quite possibly. Donald says he's good for business, and he's good for /American/ businesses. He hurts the multinational conglomerates.

15:35 <Cyan_Spark> The market's been ballooning despite rising unemployment and partial economic suspension
15:35 <Cyan_Spark> A curious case indeed
15:36 <Cyan_Spark> Although, it does seem that unemployment has halved since April 2020
15:36 <RazorSharpFang> Well, it's not as bad as what they were expecting.
15:36 <Cyan_Spark> Either more people are being hired, or more people are giving up on looking for jobs
15:37 <Cyan_Spark> Yet the virus continues to surge across the States
15:38 <RazorSharpFang> Virus cases surge higher. Stocks go up.
15:38 <Cyan_Spark> An unexpected correlation
15:39 <RazorSharpFang> I'm back at breakeven today. Market is strange. Must be a day that ends in `y`
15:41 <Cyan_Spark> Unfortunately I only seem to be able to stick around for the first hour of trading
15:41 <RazorSharpFang> I have to sleep before long. Market opens at 10:30 PM my time
15:42 <Cyan_Spark> Same here
15:42 <RazorSharpFang> Managed to open 3 new positions today, making the most of the red-time while it was here.
15:42 <Cyan_Spark> Do you trade locally?
15:43 <RazorSharpFang> I trade almost exclusively US stocks. I like in Australia.
15:43 <Cyan_Spark> Huh.
15:43 <Cyan_Spark> Australian stocks not interesting enough?
15:43 <RazorSharpFang> There's not that much open interest for options trading. Volume is limited.
15:44 <Cyan_Spark> I see
15:44 <Cyan_Spark> Well, time to wind down for bed. I wonder what I'll wake up to

21:50 * Dappled grumbles and leans against Ali. Found out how to trigger the Mystery Gifts to spawn in Gen 4/5 pokemon, but unhelpfullly the gen 4 stuff requires older unsecured network infastructure I don't have access to anymore. Trying for a work around.
21:51 * Ali pat pats Dappled
21:51 * Dappled wants to be able to generate all those mythical pokemon and since the date it shows them recieved is based on the devices date, you can make them basically identical to the original event..
21:52 <Dappled> Like I could make Shaymins if I could just get it to work with the gen 4 games since apparently it didn't release in 5.
21:53 <Ali> I love how I have more options in Sword with the DLC
21:53 <Ali> Yet I'm still having the same problems T.T
21:53 * Dappled 's sorry to hear that.
21:53 * Dappled hugs the Ali.
21:53 <Ali> Just get stuck where I think I've got a few good mons
21:54 <Ali> But then you find out they have awful movepools or the TR you want just won't spawn.
21:54 <Dappled> TR?
21:57 <Ali> Technical Records
21:57 <Dappled> Ah.
21:58 <Ali> You know, the ones that they moved all the good moves to
21:59 * Dappled guesses? Didn't really use them. Just used level up movesets.

22:09 * Dappled thinks he got it. He might be able to start generating those mythical pokemon from Gen 4 as well as 5.
22:13 * Ali steals oak's letter from Dappled
22:14 <Dappled> Nuuuu
22:14 * Dappled 's trying to get access to mystery gifts in Platinum but the stupid clown won't move from the building I'm supposed to go into
22:15 <Dappled> Ah. Need a coal badge.
22:16 * Dappled tries HG.
22:18 * Dappled hugs the Ali. Works.
22:20 <Dappled> Welp. Looks like I have another reason to beat HG and platinum. Cause I need to have beaten the elite 4 in them to transfer them to White 2 so I can move them to pokemon bank.
22:26 * Dappled wonders if he'll be able to swing trading these mythicals for the stuff in Gen 6-7.
22:33 <Dappled> So Ali, once I've got it set it so that I receive the mythicals on the dates of the actual events, would you like some of those mythicals? It might be awhile since I can only recieve one per save file, so gen 4 games need to be beaten before I can transfer them up the line.
22:34 <Ali> Sadly I cannot due to Nintendo Online
22:34 <Ali> And as far as I know, Shaymin is not eligible for gen 8
22:34 <Dappled> Or we could just trade on the 3ds.
22:36 <Dappled> The pokemon games are well and truly known inside and out. People have made dns servers to handle the GTS for the games that have shut it down.
22:42 <Dappled> Course if you would just make a home account, the free version would be enough for people to trade you things without paying money.
22:50 <Ali> But you can't pull from home to SnS?
22:51 <Dappled> You'd still have access to it when it becomes available in a future game. Or again, I just trade it to you on the GTS for an older game.
