while (true) { print(money) }

JavaScript will actually open the print dialog.

This is basically what the bank are doing when you get a loan.

When you get a $25k loan from a bank the banker does not take money from somewhere to put it in your bank account. The banker basically just add a +25k in your bank account that comes from nowhere.

Serious question, wouldn't it be cheaper to buy it?

[–] Rin@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

given i have solar panels, it's technically free money.
