Sounds good! No offense meant on my end! Perhaps some confusing by the weird indentation on these Verge comments, its not always easy to follow. Have a good one.

Yes; They have done it before when there have been massive banking failures in the past, involving hundreds of billions dollars repaid. Which would be, in todays dollars, probably low trillions.

(it was also intended to be a little light-hearted, which is also why i picked space aliens)

My comment, as I would think would be pretty easy to understand, related to yours in that the original image said "This can happen ANYWHERE" and I was saying that it actually hasn’t happened where I live in close to 100 years because of the FDIC, thankfully.

I was quite obviously making the point that your example was poor because there is no larger military force than the US. Besides perhaps of extraterrestrial origin.

If the US was being invaded by a much larger power and there’s a strong likelihood the invaders would take over

So… space aliens? If this happens I think we have bigger problems than the FDIC.

Likely designed to either try and convince him to just bail and pay the breakup fee OR to try and keep top talent if he does buy it.

So? What does that have to do with my comment? I specifically said "Thankfully, this hasn’t happened in America…"

I mean, as bad as losing 70% of your savings in six months is, I think losing 100% of your savings because your bank stopped operations is worse.

This hasn’t happened in America in you or I’s lifetime thankfully, due to FDIC insurance.

I wish I could opt out of non-music content, on Spotify. It’s always feeding me "True Crime – made for you!" or similar playlists/ads even though I have never listened to a True Crime podcast on Spotify… maybe not even any podcasts? Honestly I would prefer Spotify do some combination of lowering their prices/paying artists more instead of spending tons of money on non-music related things. All these podcast exclusives have to get paid somehow, I assume.

What’s with all the NFT articles?

You might notice that this article, and the other NFT articles you are referring, all share the same banner at the top… clicking on said banner might give you the background you are looking for…

Ha, fair enough! These are expensive devices

Nothing in macOS uses that space (unless, I guess, you have some weird extensions that do, but I’ve never seen anything that does) and if you go fullscreen the whole top section goes dark (and would with a hole punch too, I assume – otherwise you’d have a black dot in your movie/game) so it really doesn’t matter in practice.
