Yeah that’s gonna earn him some votes.

They knew their audience. These were exclusively marketed to well-to-do yuppie types. You know, the kind that could afford coke in the first place.

“If they will not eat, then perhaps they shall drink”. IYKYK

I mean… props to her dedication I guess. I wish I could care that much about things.

By now he must’ve (correctly) deduced that his approval will never really go lower than ~30% because that 30% doesn’t vote (or live) rationally. He quite literally took tens of thousands from both people who could barely afford it and those who could really not afford it - AND THEY WOULD STILL VOTE FOR HIM.

Better late than never I suppose.

It’s what brought internet to the masses. That’s what always kills <any subject>.

I’m from the before-times, where loading a single EGA screen in 4 colours took a good twenty seconds from a floppy drive. Printer was dot matrix. Internet was something mythical only possessed by the extremely elite or academia. You better believe I’m still astonished when I see a 4K game load in 3 seconds from an NVMe drive.

That’s what the AI is for.

Of course my representatives are cowards like usual. No wonder the far right gains more traction here every day. I’m not fooled by them, but when the actual leadership is this retarded it’s not hard to fool most of the idiots.

No. But I’ve only been employed here for a single week. Novelty’ll have to wear off at some point.

They calls 'em like they sees 'em.

They’re not wrong.

Russia knows it’s at war with Europe. Ukraine knows it. The US almost certainly does. But EU citizens haven’t accepted it yet. They’ll have to soon though.

I treat every bit of “news” from those sources (Kalshi, Polymarket) as outright manipulation. They have a vested interest in presenting either one of two sides, depending on how the odds fall that day. But they have zero duty to truth.

If he hoarded his gold instead of spent it, he’d be up about 100% over the last five years alone. Only crypto would’ve given that kind of return in the same time span, with far greater risk.

A single bar? Chip off a 50g piece, re-melt it, sell it to a jeweler or cash-for-gold place. Rinse & repeat with enough time inbetween and never in the same location twice, and always for cash.

Multiple bars will either require a multi year plan or more… professional means.

He wasn’t alone when he found it. It was an entire construction team, building and digging on a municipally owned site which was publicly accessible and almost certainly monitored, if remotely.

There was no conceivable way to keep that find quiet under those circumstances.

So if he did manage to pinch off one, props to him.

Some people call that mindfulness and pay professionals to achieve that state. Others, like me, consider it hell to be constantly aware of this without the ability to turn it off.

Nonono, those are “Trusted Execution Environments”. Aka side channel central.
