I have a dirty suspicion that the "where's the ROI?" talking point is actually a calculated and collaborated strategy by big wall street banks to panic retail investors to sell so they can gobble up shares at a discount - trump is going to be pumping (at minimum) hundreds of BILLIONS into these companies in the near future.

Call me a conspiracy guy, but I've seen this playbook many many times

I disagree - before Bitcoin there was no venmo, cashapp, etc. It took weeks to move big money around. I'm not saying shit like NFT's ever made sense, and meme coins are fucking stupid - unfortunately the crypto world has been taken over by scammers - but don't shit on the technology

Honestly none of this means anything at the moment. This might be some sort of calculated trickery from China to give Nvidia the finger, or Biden the finger, or a finger to Trump's AI infrastructure announcement a few days ago, or some other motive.

Maybe this "selloff" is masterminded by the big wall street players (who work hand-in-hand with investor friendly media) to panic retail investors so they can snatch up shares at a discount.

What I do know is that "AI" is a very fast moving tech and shit that was true a few months ago might not be true tomorrow - no one has a crystal ball so we all just gotta wait and see.

And that mathematician won't see the profits for that faster algorithm and you will never hear their name - shits been happening in tech for decades

Id say anyone with half a brain, paid attention and was an informed voter knew exactly this is what we were in for - but it's clear most Americans are not informed because of the huge number of people who didn't participate (for whatever reasons)

I'll add this quote as well - "conservatives don't have policies, they have enemies"

Stood up and did what exactly? I've been standing up to this shit for 20 years, the general public in the US is just pathetic and stupid and unfixable. Perhaps we got exactly what we deserve (and some of us are fucking stuck on this stupid ride).

Yeah exactly, they will bend over backwards to support trump because they see him as an ally of Zionism

Listen to what you're saying man - Spinless coward is gonna spineless coward, and he showed us he is a spinless coward - can't trust a person with no integrity.

Yes, they absolutely want it - minus the dumb fuck part of Canada (is that Alberta?) - west coast and north east USA are highly educated, powerhouses in industry, and basically pay for the welfare queen red states. It's so fucking crazy how the east coast and west coast are held hostage by all that land in the red states

Typical Divide and conquer - Stop demonizing people who work for a living - it's no different than demonizing every single American because of US foreign policy. Blame those at the top making their greedy decisions and the puppet masters behind them.

You must be young or something to not know how utterly fucked up insurance companies are. Please let everyone you know know

I find most of the defaults are fine and get the job done, but I also understand the tinkerer types who like working on a super custom setup that's theirs.

I still use old big iron unix boxes from the 90's, but most of the time I Install the GNU versions of stuff like ls, sed, cat etc because they are so much more feature rich (and just about any modern software/script assumes GNU versions of those tools anyway)

Oh fuck off, this is your typical "both sides are bad" argument to keep people from voting - we know it's the conservatives in SCOTUS that shitted on Biden, the corporations are price gouging us (the corporations are the true masters btw, and we know it) and the Hunter shit was the usual conservative media shit they do every cycle (email servers, laptops, Hunter).

The sad part is anyone with half a brain knows conservatives won't fix these issues (the capitalist class are having record profits as they squeeze the working class like this, and they are now in full control).

What we are looking at is a dead democracy - a zombie really, it died years ago when it became an oligarchy (or maybe the death process started years ago)

I don't think those ones are complaining, at least everyone I know isn't

I've been using the soap compartment for years, I only recently just started chucking the packet into the silverware holder because I've heard that might be better (the little compartment might open too late and be less effective). I'm not totally convinced OP was doing a worse job accidentally

Pathetic take. Some of you are clearly miserable ppl who just want to hate on ppl doing stuff.

And what did the model or photographer do to warrant this being an example of they deserved it

One would think the CEO class would want to pay the snitch, but they know they can just say "the snitch was taken care of very generously", never actually give the snitch a dime - the general public will not follow up and will be convinced the snitch was payed good
