The market, well known for its thoughtfulness and discipline, is sure to remain so.

Yeah, nothing says “this person will repay their loans” like looking at their face and nothing fucking else.

I love how you can just call it capetalismo in portuguese, capeta = devil

Better title:

Passkeys: still trying to explain why it’s worth the hassle when it isn’t

You can’t have peace with people around, duh!

From what I hear, every big football association is an endless swamp of corruption

I wonder if the current FIFA president is in the Epstein files, I’m sure the winner of the prize is

muskrat loves his x-rated shit publicly visible to everyone

his fund, Scion Asset Management, bought $187.6 million in puts on Nvidia and $912 million in puts on Palantir (…) Palantir’s market cap is also up over 150 percent year-to-date. Its current valuation is upwards of 200 times its forward earnings, spreading fears that it may be grossly overvalued.

He knows which one is more likely to get really fucked in this bubble and it’s not the shovel seller

Burry similarly made a long-term $1 billion bet from 2005 onwards against the US mortgage market, anticipating its collapse.

Can we assume his puts aren’t for 2026, but at least 2028 or later?

As CNN points out, Burry’s track record isn’t perfect. For instance, he called in January 2023 to “sell” in a now infamous tweet

Something something irrational solvent something

Palantir CEO Alex Karp: “The two companies he’s shorting are the ones making all the money,”

One of the companies is making all the money and it’s not Palantir.

My important documents are all in a folder inside my closet. Somewhere.

Other than that, the only stuff of value that I have are electronics, like my laptop, tv, phones.

I think all schools in Brazil have uniform, even private ones. No such thing as “physical education uniform”, tho, you sweat on the same shirt you stay in class, so everyone is kind of forced to have 5 fucking uniform shirts and 2-3 pairs of pants and shorts, which makes it feel more like free money extortion rather than anything else.

I don’t know enough about school history in my country to really tell whether this is some form of authoritarian bullshit or not, since there was some sort of education reform during the dictatorship (1964-1985) which led to a significant increase in private schools since, as “public school” became synonymous with “shit education”, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it originated from that line of thought. I mean, schools here operate on assembly line logic, so uniforms make perfect sense.

He’s already overpromising on what he wants his game to have:

“I think that line in Fable – ‘for every choice, a consequence’ – wasn’t delivered on well enough,” Molyneux explained. “I think the possession mechanic that we had in Dungeon Keeper wasn’t delivered on enough. The open-world freedom that we had in Black & White, I think it was good at the start, but it didn’t deliver enough at the end. And Masters Of Albion is an opportunity to mix all those together."

And I’ll tell you the amazing thing – it’s going to fucking work. It really is. It’s like nothing you’ve ever played before, but it’s still unbelievably familiar. It is Black & White, it is Dungeon Keeper, and it is Fable, but it’s a completely new genre. And it shouldn’t really work, but it does.

Haven’t played anything of his that has been announced or released after 2012. I still need to give Black and White a try, anyday now.

Tangent: Jami is p2p, so the only risk of going offline is if everyone in the groups go offline. It does lack several quality of life features, though.

5? Nah, man, without us there’d be no modern society. No internet, no software, no cell phones, no satellites, no WMDs, etc.

Why are you making a point for the extermination of neurodivergents?

Don’t count on companies fighting back. Something tells me that, the moment a company actually fights the govt, they’ll magically remember that said companies are actually violating several state and federal regulations and laws

It works for patents, surely it’ll work for lunatic bullshit

1. Not really
2. Not always
3. Also at intelligent people sometimes
4. We also make a lot of shitty jokes that ain’t funny
5. Not by a long shot

I feel joy when I play boardgames or tabletop RPGs. With a good table, lots of banter and shit talking happens and that’s perfect.

Never had weed. When I drink, I get more talkative, but it’s a fine line before I get sleepy and depressed

Can you make fences out of stone or metal, or just wood, in SV? Because I recall Harvest Moon DS allowed you to make stone fences, which were a lot more likely to survive hurricanes and snowstorms
