Yeah, make sure to sue the masked federal agents that are immune from prosecution by name… You know the goons who hide their identity and the us legal system has defended.

My old job had me going to a lot of places in very bad conditions and off road. I always drove an audi or a subaru and watched the lifted trucks spin out / go in the ditch / flip over / get stuck / and generally have a poor showing.

Maybe when the union is dead, but yeah they are speed running the collapse of an empire.

Gee, there was no way they would have been able to change this…

Kinda no? Its not had a great last few years.

I hate that this is the best reason I have seen.

“Up” is doing a lot of work here. But both work.

Why?

This is the global political equivalent of standing on the couch and shouting “PEACE!”. No one is taking the idea of letting russia get away with territory and any form of immunity seriously.

Ukraine has already stated it is not able to legally sign away territory (a big part of this bullshit “deal”). This is dead in the water unless there is a regime change in Ukraine, something that would likely cause even more issues.

The degrees are also bad, they are often filler material now.

Your account was however.

I have seen a move away from office products into cloud things like google for years. Not a huge fan of the “cloud” but here we are.

Ha, the sad part is that meth use will increase inversely relative to the average households buying power. Meth is always affordable… just need to rip the wires out of your houses skin.

I first noticed the raw material value oddity was years ago when a bank was trying to sell me on a saving product, the return was below inflation and therefor useless. So I looked it up and if I bought a large amount of lead, and put it in my yard the lead cube would (even with the lead being loss into my grass) be worth enough after 10 years to give a better return then what the bank was offering.

Bail out almost anyone that bought tech stocks? Seems unlikely, and it would be basically admitting the end of the stock markets legitimacy. Bailouts tend to be for companies on the edge of collapse.

Really anything that has value outside of a currency, and the funny part is that raw materials often out preform other ways of investing like GICs. Not talking about silver or gold but like a literal ton of copper or iron ore.

Now the trick is where to put the stuff…

I am at a loss to what that would even look like. The bubble popping would mean the admission of AI (LLMs) not having a viable path to usefulness or return, so then what would a bail out even be? Money? To what end, the bubble would have burst and the idea of AI (LLMs) being anything but a money pit would be what makes the bubble burst in the first place. Unless they can show a path to profit (they can’t) then the bubble will burst in time or continue in an endless zombie state where they just pretend that somehow AI (LLMs) are the future while burning capital. If it does go into a zombie state (as so many other things in the us market are becoming) then the whole market will just slowly fail as the “hype” turns into disappointment. The only reason that the zombie state would be preferable is that entities need to invest their money somewhere and maybe some other thing in the market can take AI (LLMs) place, but even then why bother bailing out anyone?

That system fell apart when they showed they could not count to 9. 10 Should have been 9, and it was mid at best.

Sold my (child’s) soul to the company store…

I live in north America and would find it kinda neat.
