I get that, but the rest of your reply suggests that you think people should try and time the market, which is patently absurd. :)

Depends on if the stock will continue to go down

No one can know that, though.

I agree that it was dumb for people to buy SpaceX, especially with the lack of any voting power.

That said, it’s dumber to sell stock when it’s down.

If you bought, just hold. Can’t time something this wild.

What’s wrong with being “performative?”

In this context it means a politician who makes extravagant promises then doesn’t fulfill them. Someone like Barack Obama. It’s just absurd given Mamdani’s diligence so far as mayor.

Same. My TV is a second monitor and really only gets use during football season. Who wants to watch TV in real time anymore anyway?

It’s been wild watching these do-nothing centrist bastards criticize him as a ‘performative’ politician, when just in this short period he’s been in power, he’s delivering on promises and finding practical solutions for things previously thought impossible, like efficient snow removal (and his plan for that was also employed something like 30,000 people temporarily, insane) and a targeted tax on the billionaires.

I am very glad to have been wrong about Mamdani. I thought it was more likely he would go mask off and be another Obama.

Planned obsolescence is one of those things that just infuriates me so much about capitalism.

Well that’s dumb.

I think my LGTV predates a lot of this, thankfully. I’ve had it since 2020, but there are still several settings (like ‘ad personalization’) that I have turned off, and I never connect it to the Internet on purpose.

This has always been a thing, and we know it definitively from the Epstein files, as several of the declassified emails show that Epstein met with heads of state to discuss how to maximize their own timing of anticipated market events, like the 2008 crash.

Prediction markets and Donald’s own corruption have just made it a publicly normalized thing.

Wow. That must have been jarring.

That dude can eat a dick.

Yeah. What a moron.

Facts.

Welcome. It’s better here. (except for maybe the weird blocking functionality.)

If you’re interested in any other Fediverse social media platforms, I made a video on them earlier this year.

I have 1200 “friends” on Facebook.

Less than a 10th of them “follow” me.

Therefore it is and was a literal waste of time to spend any time on their site.

Per the article this was not a Flock cam. FYI.

4th Amendment violation

They are just “vibe coding” updates now.

And of course, it’s crap.
