We did fuck all and ERCOT is optimistic about the winter for some reason.

They should just take all his assets and garnish any payment to him so he’s got 0 wealth to his name and is forced to live on minimum wage.

It would be like using any other commodity. Literally done every day in every major market.

Paper sacks have a natural limit to being made just like everything else. Eventually you reach market stability, paper sacks are also not durable, so there would be some churn in the supply.

Don’t forget how easy it is to launder money with cryptocurrency.

I guess I’m not using Strava anymore.

Mastodon is fine, but I burned out on it pretty quick. There’s not an intuitive way to find new content on there. I’m sure the content is fine, but Bluesky can get you up and running really quickly.

That seems pretty straightforward if you have experience with that stuff, I don’t have that experience.

Anki is amazing, but it’s not self hosted without some effort.

I’m all for protecting kids, but this goes beyond the reasonable boundaries of the nanny state.

So much for an educated electorate. I hate this country more than ever.

I got my $244 worth of stock value increase, I’ll be a billionaire any day now.

There are carrier based services that do fuck all for spam calls, what you really need to get rid of them is Google Assistant call screening. Yes, Google is a giant evil corporation with anti-competitive monopolies and “AI” that will lead to the eventual destruction of the Internet we know and love, but their call screener is top notch. It answers the call and the spammers have to talk to a robot to get through to you. That’s cut down my spam call volume dramatically. And if it flags someone accidentally they just say who they are and I can decide to answer.

Keep telling yourself Trump is the answer, we’ll go through another national disaster that takes out 2% of the world’s population.

Biden and Harris are not it if you want to push Democrats and the country left. They aren’t as far right as Trump and his buddies, but the are left of center but pretty classic Democrats. Bernie was the guy to push things left, but the Democrats rejected him. Without a good progressive candidate in place to challenge in the primary, we won’t see that push left. This election it’s Harris as the best bet for keeping Republicans from doing serious long term damage to this country.

You need to talk to someone about your risk tolerance. Clearly you’re not willing to accept short term losses and you’re going to be prone to panic selling and holding cash when you could be buying dips. Your risk tolerance does not match your portfolio.

I want to see it completely shit up Truth Social to the point it starts moving the needle left over there and we end up with Romney Republicans who are evil, but not complete psychopaths.

You mean you don’t give them 2 weeks notice on firing?

Israel intercepted a bunch of pagers and filled them with explosives and then sent out a mass page that killed a bunch of people including kids.

It’s the world’s most powerful military and largest economy, unfortunately for the rest of the world, we’re fucking nuts too.
