In a currency collapse you say fuck the economy, we save the currency at all costs. Been saying this for months now. If the currency goes, the economy goes with it anyway. Trying to save the economy to the detriment of the currency is retarded.

First major hurricane of the season and it's almost October..."panic people, climate change!"

Imagine destroying all of what remaining credibility your website had for this steaming pile of forgettable shit.

Almost a half a percent yield curve inversion? What's the largest it's ever been?

Looks like Ian is ramping up. Could hit anywhere along the gulf coast of Florida, and the intensity seems to be a crap shoot too. We put up our hurricane shit before we left last week just in case. Although, I found out that apparently hurricane fabric doesn't do shit to prevent your windows...

I like(d?) the third one because of when it came out and my age at the time. I was young enough that all of it appealed to me. It was actually on some random station a few weeks ago and I watched bits and pieces of it. Didn't seem that bad.

Writing by committee.

This is why I mentioned Braveheart. I almost said Gladiator too, but that's a but too departed from "history." Braveheart is "edu-tainment," but it's at least based in reality.

Edu-tainment. Because so many movies in the past just completely lied about historical events because they'd be boring otherwise, right? Like in Braveheart where the English won, or Saving Private Ryan where the Nazis decimated the allies.

Told my wife about it and she hasn't seen anything either.

Go back and read statements in 2007 and 2008 where they kept saying the economy was strong up until the moment everything collapsed.

I mentioned it in Politics, but inflation being "flat" at this point only means it's increasing at a constant pace, not that it's slowed at all. Making it worse is now we're at large compounding inflation rates, where last August was 5.3% and now we've got 8.3% on top of it. Inflation isn't...

Is this a promise?

So financial flop (I'm sure their goal wasn't to break even) and only critics like it? Good job.

My mind was blown when the DoD started using the cloud for classified projects. I went out to Colorado Springs right before covid to pitch our program to a group (Cloud One) that was a joint venture between the Air Force and some tech company. They told us about how they had the support of some...

Gonna dump all my other play money if I can put them into that ETF. Screw playing the game handicapped.

It's actually easier if you explain how companies raise money for new "investment" (buildings, projects, etc). Doing things like a stock issue or bond issue are good ways of doing that, as opposed to finding a bank to loan you money. The company makes their money on the initial offering when...

I'm not watching the show, just come here to read about it but...haven't there only been like 4 or 5 episodes? "Never get over it?" For an actress that's been playing a character for 4 episodes? Jesus these people are mentally unstable.

I should point out this isn't sarcasm. There are plenty of people saying similar about Black Panther 2. They don't want whitey going to see it.

Really going out on a limb there. Core CPI keeps shooting further and further higher (meaning all they've done so far has done exactly dick), and they're going to call for a measly 100 basis points. If that's all that happens after their "super serious" Jackson Hole meeting, well, we're fucked...

It's a product of the time. Unless you were a pre-teen through college aged adult and played it with a group of your friends when it came out, it's not going to be some amazing experience. It was fun because of the time period it came out in and capturing something games have done much better...

As a white man you're not even supposed to watch this, as you're taking the a seat from a proud black womyn from seeing it.

Right, and my point is, there is no data that inflation would be heading down. I said it in the inflation thread just now, but it appears the only thing they look at is oil prices when making these predictions and ignore literally everything else.

I just have no idea why anyone would expect it to be good. Nothing has been fixed. Why would CPI just magically get better?

That's probably why I quit. First being that I figured out quickly that the difference between 500 and 600 GS wasn't worth the grind (was it even noticeable?), and second is that I was on one of the minority factions of the server.

Really hoping this WEBR play pays off this week. Dumped my PLTR for it.

What the fuck did you do for 1000 hours? I had a touch over 200 before I was like "what's the point?"

Which always leads back to...what purpose does NASA serve anymore?

That trailer looks terribly uninteresting. I really can't figure out Hollywood's fascination with Michelle Williams, either. I haven't seen a single performance by her where I thought "this is a good fit." This honestly seems like a lot of dick sucking for Spielberg.

"White replacement is a myth. Stop with your conspiracy theories."

First movie made almost a billion dollars on a $175 million budget, and they offered $100k for main roles? Damn, Disney, that's cheap.

Jesus, and the 10 year is 3.32%. Gap of almost 25 basis points.

Which definitely supports my prediction that we're about to tank to the low 3000's range.

And just like everything else woke, they'll hide behind racism or sexism as an excuse. It wasn't the shitty writing, it was that everyone is a bigot. So they'll try again, hiring shitty writers to pump out some bullshit, insert some diversity hires, and when people tune out repeat the cycle.

A Christian book series adapted by Netflix? Yeah, that'll be fun.

Based on what I've read, there are windows they can launch in and it means waiting until I think the 20th. The window for that last cancellation the other day was only 2 hours. If they miss that window it'll probably be October.

It worked for GoT, or at least, for the books, because it was more a political intrigue story with a very distant fantasy element attached. Just a retelling of the War of the Roses with some extra fluff. Now that the fantasy is out of the bag though, they seem to have pitched a dozen shows that...

Most people enjoyed TFA I thought? It wasn't until the next two movies that Star Wars died.

This is from Wikipedia, but I'm amazed at how optimistic this is. They're literally expecting to get to the moon with 3 launches. The first unmanned, second 2 years later with a crew, and then landing on the moon a year after that. Like, are you fucking kidding me? And agreed on Boeing. If I...
