Look at this fucking moron, wrong within 10 min of posting. Granted, not Powell, but still...

Anyone expecting the Fed to let up now wasn't paying attention to Powell's last speech.

Looks like today we'll give up all those gains from last week.

That's what happens when people who thought the first was an abortion and race baiting go and pay to see the sequel anyway.

I'm baffled by the rave reviews. I wonder if they're all about the cinematography and not the actual content? Only watched the first episode, but this feels like someone trying to make a Tarantino-esque show but without the ability to pull it off. Every line of dialogue seems like it's trying...

Calls the first one an abortion, still goes and pays to see the sequel.

Whole country outside of the very very southern portion of Florida, and Alaska, are getting a massive cold front. Guess there was some system up near the Arctic that pushed it all south. So now we all freeze.

I mean, I feel like I've been hearing about how the forums would get nuked for a decade.

7 hours later and I can't either. Figured I'd come here to check. Guess maybe it finally happened.

Damn, grew up watching Gallagher. Figured he was much older though.

That's pretty scathing from someone who calls the original the "crown jewel of the franchise." For those of us who thought the first was a middling movie that only got good reviews to sate race relations, it's probably unwatchable.

My guess is the news this morning means the interest rate hikes are working, which signals a weakening US economy, meaning in comparison everything else looks better?

Damn, markets up 4%+ right at the open. Edit: Fucking rocketship time. S&P now at 4.20%, QQQ 5.52%, Russell 2000 at 4.36%.

I'm curious what they were going for. A boring squad PVE mode on the Warzone map?

DMZ looks boring as fuck based on the 15 min I watched of a streamer.

Lots of changes. https://www.callofduty.com/blog/2022/11/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-II-warzone-2-0-season-01-overview-battle-pass-dmz

I ate about a 70% loss on PLTR.

Maybe they'll use some of that money to fix the fucking game. Jokes. I've got them.

I was trying not to compare to TV, but think about the cast of Friends who are getting 20 years worth of syndication, and were earning $1 million an episode for a while. Even most of them are only worth about $100 million, and the ones that are worth more did a bunch of other shit (Jennifer...

Oh, in ultimate irony, I keep getting notices from my free stock that I got when I signed up for Robinhood for the AMC buy way back. It's up almost 400% since when I got it (since it was free I don't have an actual cost basis). It's CPRX, some kind of pharma company. I lost my ass on AMC and...

Down over 8% at the open. Market is getting predictable.

I made it a bit past 30 minutes before I gave up. This was super fucking boring. I could tell it was trying to be clever with the meta commentary of what makes a good murder mystery, but it was trying way too hard and the pacing was atrociously slow.

His brother, in a much more successful endeavor (Backstreet Boys) is only worth $35M. Fucking Justin Timberlake is at about $250M. So yeah, someone lied to him big time. $20M is massive success even in entertainment. I doubt he even made that much.

So they'll likely have a 5%+ down day, knowing how these things go.

And here I hate getting matched with console players because of the aimbot.

Jesus, that's depressing. I lived in Ridgecrest and even I think that's sad.

Seems like just about every comedian ever did a cameo in this. I was never a big Weird Al fan, but the humor would be exactly as you'd expect.

I'm definitely crashing, about the same as you. Same with the patch and then driver hotfix. I'm wondering if your friend is an issue with shaders. That stupid shader optimization shit is still around in this game, and it has to redownload every time there's a patch.

Not if the Fed has anything to say about it!

Instead of cancelling they probably should've fired all their writers and got someone halfway competent. Although I haven't watched the last two seasons, so maybe it's too far gone.

There's really not enough time for it to go up any significant amount. Still down over 3% just in the last 30 days. You'd probably need a 10% move up to look okay (brings you to the levels in August). But even then it's still going to be down a shit ton YTD.

Interesting pick for Ferrell who said he fucking hated Elf.

Yeah, you can fuck right off with this one, Hollywood.

Yeah, I have no idea what it's actually doing. My thought was just that by tying the currency to VIX, you're effectively trying to blunt volatility and any move up or down in the markets therefore also get squashed before it can make a significant movement. Essentially trying to manipulate...

That seems more like betting against the economy? It's basically saying we need to crush everything, but only enough to keep it stable where it is. Any variance up or down tanks it.

Only like level 22 or so, so barely scratched the surface, but that echoes my experience so far. I would unlock stuff and end up heading out of the gunsmith without adding anything. Kind of makes leveling up weapons seem pointless outside of unlocking more things.

Looks like option 1 is becoming more likely.

Started playing the campaign, but not done yet. Just did the AC-130 missions (which were super fun), but afterwards I'm sitting here like, who the fuck wrote this?

Sounds a lot like Hacks.
