I just re-read the comment chain and saw it was mentioned before. Oops lol

Might be unbreakable, but all the attacker has to do is put money on it once and then just duplicate the card. You don't need to beat the encryption. You just need to make the machine think the card is legit
Yea but that's different than mixing it before putting it between two slices of bread. Definitely a crime
I'd rather deal with a poorly designed bottle cap than half the shit we have to deal with here in the US. There's a reason you're getting down voted. What you said is so narrow sighted that it's not even funny.
We have MUCH larger issues we have to deal with than a stupid bottle cap. "Glad I don't have to deal with that here" is showing a willingness to ignore everything else.
Is THAT your litmus for freedom?! In some states women can't choose to have an abortion. And in all of the states people have to choose between going to the doctor or paying rent that month... But goddamnit, at least they don't have to deal with those pesky tethered bottle caps!
IF YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH CANADIAN GOOSES THEN YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH ME! I SUGGEST YOU LET THAT ONE MARINATE!
Oh good Lord. Fuckin idiots.
Ootl... What's going on with that particular power plant?
Keep the rubber side down, also.
In the helicopter world is "keep the spinny bits up"
Quiet, you!
Down the hatch!
So... Not quite how it works. The company gets an authorized number of shares which it can then issue out, or sell to shareholders.
If you own 100 shares out of the 1000 they are authorized, you own 10% of the company.
Now if they request and are authorized more shares (which is what happened here), your stake in the company is cut down. Let's say they get authorized and issue another 1000 shares, bringing them to 2000 total shares. You now only own 5% of the company.
And with these new shares hitting the open market, prices will drop because now there is "more supply than demand" (it's an easy way to think about it). In theory the whole thing will eventually even out, but that generally doesn't happen here because the value of the company hasn't changed.
This whole thing is different compared to a stock split, which affects the price and the number of stocks, but not your overall stake in it. If a company does a 2:1 split, your shares will double, but the price per share will be cut in half. 10 shares at $10 now becomes 20 shares at $5... Your stake is still at $100
That would be part of the benefits he is referring to.
