Israel has forfeited their right to exist. Withdraw all Western aid, let the Arab nations do as they fucking please. Annihilate this hateful little nation of religious fruitcakes. I no longer care what happens to every last man, woman, child and pig.
I have a dozen hobbies, but don’t know a way to make a living except IT. Haven’t had a good job in nearly two years, don’t give a fuck about tech any longer, so lost.
How did AI help linux noobs? Sounds interesting.
I live on the bleeding edge of a small town. This is reason #476 why I’ll never live in a city again.
Exactly one.
Same play, everytime isn’t it?
Ridiculous threat.
A “deal” is made.
Capitulation.
“Look at what a great dealmaker I am!”
If this is apparent to a dumbass like me, I cannot see why the media cannot simply say it out loud.
In his first admin, watching his tweets was as good as watching Fox News.
I have no investments. Cashed out what little I had over the past two years of unemployment.
But you have a point in looking to opportunities. Always ways to profit from change and crisis. I’m more worried about the overall health of our individual investments. People usually aren’t hustling their money around. Most simply contribute to their Roth or IRA or whatever and let the market play out over decades, just as we were taught.
What do you get when your search “terminal”? My home rig defaults to PowerShell, but I likely changed something years ago.
I’m a Windows sysadmin, this is the exact explanation. The only other thing, and this is going way out on a limb, is that terminal was installed through the Windows Store and something related is busted. I’ve never even heard of a company utilizing the Store for installations.
Read all your comments, would like your take on the Buffett Index topping 200% for the first time (total stock market value vs. GDP). It was around 130% in 1929 and 2008.
Considering the disproportionate amount of stocks in AI, and, so far, no clear path to investors seeing a return, I’m scared shitless.
What’s your take on that bit?
Not OP, but first and foremost, on this bond thing, countries are going to have to be willing to take a beating in their own economies.
Selling off bonds is like Elon selling off Tesla. The worth/wealth disappears if the market is flooded with paper.
Another condition is in our face: The Buffett Index, which is total stock market value vs. GDP. We topped 200% for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It was around 130% in 1929 and 2008. Most of that bullshit money is in AI. We got real problems.
Mainland Europe stood aside as Putin invaded their backyard. This inaction was not lost on the American fascists. See where we’re at today?
(And I am not excusing America’s lack of action, but FFS, we can’t do it ALL. And certainly can’t now…)
Makes one wonder how much they planned this out. The Epstein files could picture Trump balls deep in a 13-yo girl, nothing would happen.
The fascists have larger goals in mind. They’re speed running WWII, trying to avoid the Nazi’s mistakes, so good so far. But like the Nazis, giddy over the lack of internal or external resistance, they’re biting off more than then can chew, way too fast. Cheap gasoline at the pumps only goes so far. They’re not energizing the whole economy like the Nazis did, people aren’t feeling it.
No idea what comes next. But the American Empire is over. Our economy is just too large to fall over quickly. But AI gives us hope! (Of crashing…) The Buffett Index is higher than either during the Great Depression or the 2008 recession. We have 200%+ more fake money in the stock market than our GDP. The cost will be staggering.
Can all y’all grow potatoes? I can, but I’m not very good at it.
Many have outlined Trump’s mafia-style speech. Like the truly wealthy, the mafia is a group he admires, was never allowed into, wants to imitate.
It’s so clear I want to scream. The US watched the man make a fool of himself in the 80s and 90s, he was tabloid trash. Even The Apprentice made fun of his bombastic nature, but apparently neither Trump not his fans were in on the joke.
If Europe had fought Russia over the Ukraine, this wouldn’t be on the table. It’s clear to the world Europe won’t fight, even to defend their own backyard, so here we are.
To be clear, I fucking hate it. I have been screaming for Europe to fight back since day one, all while it was clear America was half-assing the fight. But they didn’t, the fascists gauged the reaction, now they feel free to strike.
Well they can’t just come right out and say we want the warming, Artic shipping lanes and rare earth minerals.
Speaking of miles, there are miles of political capital between stomping brown people and mostly lifeless ice. I don’t think even the MAGA faithful would back an invasion against white people. Little too close to home, literally and figuratively. Hell, at that point even the General Staff may find a spine and refuse.
Sometimes you’re stuck running IIS or SQL Server or the like. Can’t think of anything personal I’d have to run on Windows Server, but commercial is another world. In any case, I always ran headless given the option.
When your ass is truly on the line, your brain will take over quite nicely. I don’t mean mere fear or apprehension, I mean, “I will die if I don’t act as needed.” Many go their whole lives without that experience. This is not an “illness” thing.
