Zereth posted:Who was talking about marked bills? Feds run stings where they just buy product with marked bills so they can ID higher ups. That's why you launder drug money. So you can get the dirty bills out of your hands and into someone elses' before it heads to a bank or somewhere they scan the cash.

ultrafilter posted:That's true, but when someone is convicted for money laundering, the details of how they did it are part of the public record. Someone here could've studied how those schemes worked. And yeah, those are the ones who were caught, but some of them weren't caught for a while. Those details only become part of the public record if they're brought up in court. Law enforcement including the FBI and Secret Service (who investigate fake bills and are often involved in this stuff) are well aware of this and likely give the vaguest descriptions of the criminal activity they can to prevent copycats, which keeps the information safe because law enforcement investigations are exempt from FOIA. If you just want a list of ways, here ya go. It's basically what you'd expect and is based on news as well as federal reports about the nature of money laundering, so you're not going to find anything that's not common knowledge among enforcement types.

It's a mathematical "graph" and the programs that generate these don't always do a good job of untangling them, and sometimes it's not possible to untangle them.

The right way to launder money is scale up so you're worth more to the bank than whatever penalties they're subject to, and then let them handle that poo poo

It's typical marketing stuff, with axes with no numbering, a vague blob for the product they're selling vs. tightly defined squares for literally every other computer on the market, and the vague definition of the axes. Imagine the same graph, but replace "power consumption" with "fuel consumption", "Macs with Apple silicon" with "BMW," "Notebooks" with "Hybrids," and "Desktops" with "Sports cars". The intended message is relatively clear, but it's nothing more than vague marketing drivel, and the vagueness means it's probably completely made up.

On a similar note, I think an important distinction in the blue section is "Things that really happened" is not the same as "How conspiracy theorists think a thing happened." MKUltra was a real program. It did not, however, discover secret telepathy and mind control like conspiracy theorists claim.

I mean, it’s from their keynote and for products that haven’t actually been released yet (and therefore haven’t been benchmarked). What else would you expect other than marketing-speak “float like a butterfly sting like a bee” type stuff?

The CIA can easily kill you with their mind, they just have to go through a few steps like orders, soldiers and drones. Isn't the line the author intended more like "we can't actually be 100% sure, but 90% is enough" Vs "yeah, that is 100% not a thing". Like Diana probably wasn't assassinated, but who the hell knows, whereas there is absolutely no way there is one plesiosaur living in a Scottish lake.

I believe in lake monsters. I just believe that they're things like sturgeon, which are hideous spiny bottom feeders that can get twenty feet long, and I think that qualifies as a monster pretty nicely. Also a lot of them are endangered so leave them alone.
