  1. Past hour
  2. Is anybody here familiar with an ETF trading firm called tradr? I've done really well with ASTS and they have obviously developed a derivatives trading model for that one stock. ASTX is the symbol. Not sure if this should be on the stonks thread but whatever.
  3. Dr. Thunder > Mr. Pibb
  4. Biggest concern going into week 1 is our secondary, namely our corners, against their WRs. We really need our front to get Sayin off his spots early so he doesn't get into a groove. Second concern would be their front against our OL, but I'm hoping Arch's mobility is a mitigating factor while they find their legs. As mentioned above, we have some solid advantages going into this one, but those are the challenges I can see right now.
  5. This seems silly to me
  6. These three have all been great for me. Maybe not all time eps but pretty classic Sunny, moreso than most of the episodes last season.
  7. Someone earlier posted this guy has ruined multiple other startups. You think something as stupid as an affair is going to hinder his future more than having a shitty track record of on the job performance? Meh, I guess you think Boards of Directors are going to all of a sudden gain some ethics?
  8. Tires, vacuum cleaners, and insurance are all things where you should definitely never buy the cheapest option.

  10. this thread is a great example of the tribalism that’s pervasive in this country now. people walk around believing that everyone else is either an ally or an enemy, and that they can tell which category everyone else fits into based on one interaction. my posting history on this site, particularly in the CR and DT shows me to irrefutably be a champion of pretty much any all groups who’ve been persecuted or marginalized. i am all for the rights and empowerment of all people, of all colors, all religions, all races, trans, queer, black, female, muslim, chritsian i don’t care- you deserve love, and compassion, and equal rights to the richest, most powerful WASPs on the planet. there is zero doubting or debating where i stand and have always stood on these issues. thats simple fact. doesn't matter. as soon as i do one thing that you associate with “your enemies”- in this case expressing how tired i am of the constant “woe is me, my marginalized group is so oppressed” talk in the middle of my sporting events- you suddenly think you know everything about me. i must hate women, im a misogynist, im hateful, i have no female friends, etc. you really don’t hear how radical you sound? you don’t think you’ve taken this from 0-100 in 3.2 seconds? if you really can’t see that then there clearly is no room for changing your mind, rendering this discussion pointless. if you’re mind is made up about me, and no amount of discussion or empirical evidence to the contrary can move you from your position, then you might want to think about what that says about you.

  12. If anybody still gives a shit about the Palestinians, or the future of Israel for that matter, take 15 minutes to read this. I'm putting up a gift link, so it can be read in full and you can follow any of the links in this essay. Personally, I've been hesitant to use the word 'genocide' in preference of 'ethnic cleansing' to describe what's going on in Gaza. Still, this guy who studies this shit makes a compelling case and lays out a good global argument for why we shouldn't shy away from using the proper nomenclature. @statsman, who would be wise to read it, thinks he's supporting Israel in denying what's happening. On the contrary, his pigheadedness, as well as that of many others, only imperils the nation in the long term. By Omer Bartov Dr. Bartov is a professor of Holocaust and genocide studies at Brown University. A month after the Hamas attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, I believed there was evidence that the Israeli military had committed war crimes and potentially crimes against humanity in its counterattack on Gaza. But contrary to the cries of Israel’s fiercest critics, the evidence did not seem to me to rise to the crime of genocide. By May 2024, the Israel Defense Forces had ordered about one million Palestinians sheltering in Rafah — the southernmost and last remaining relatively undamaged city of the Gaza Strip — to move to the beach area of the Mawasi, where there was little to no shelter. The army then proceeded to destroy much of Rafah, a feat mostly accomplished by August. At that point it appeared no longer possible to deny that the pattern of I.D.F. operations was consistent with the statements denoting genocidal intent made by Israeli leaders in the days after the Hamas attack. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had promised that the enemy would pay a “huge price” for the attack and that the I.D.F. would turn parts of Gaza, where Hamas was operating, “into rubble,” and he called on “the residents of Gaza” to “leave now because we will operate forcefully everywhere.” Mr. Netanyahu had urged his citizens to remember “what Amalek did to you,” a quote many interpreted as a reference to the demand in a biblical passage calling for the Israelites to “kill alike men and women, infants and sucklings” of their ancient enemy. Government and military officials said they were fighting “human animals” and, later, called for “total annihilation.” Nissim Vaturi, the deputy speaker of Parliament, said on X that Israel’s task must be “erasing the Gaza Strip from the face of the earth.” Israel’s actions could be understood only as the implementation of the expressed intent to make the Gaza Strip uninhabitable for its Palestinian population. I believe the goal was — and remains today — to force the population to leave the Strip altogether or, considering that it has nowhere to go, to debilitate the enclave through bombings and severe deprivation of food, clean water, sanitation and medical aid to such an extent that it is impossible for Palestinians in Gaza to maintain or reconstitute their existence as a group. My inescapable conclusion has become that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people. Having grown up in a Zionist home, lived the first half of my life in Israel, served in the I.D.F. as a soldier and officer and spent most of my career researching and writing on war crimes and the Holocaust, this was a painful conclusion to reach, and one that I resisted as long as I could. But I have been teaching classes on genocide for a quarter of a century. I can recognize one when I see one. This is not just my conclusion. A growing number of experts in genocide studies and international law have concluded that Israel’s actions in Gaza can only be defined as genocide. So has Francesca Albanese, the U.N. special rapporteur for the West Bank and Gaza, and Amnesty International. South Africa has brought a genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice. The continued denial of this designation by states, international organizations and legal and scholarly experts will cause unmitigated damage not just to the people of Gaza and Israel but also to the system of international law established in the wake of the horrors of the Holocaust, designed to prevent such atrocities from happening ever again. It is a threat to the very foundations of the moral order on which we all depend.

  13. Brittany Sykes from the Mystics will replace her in the game. Not sure about of a replacement in the 3P contest yet.
  14. Lulz. None of that makes any sense. Prop him up in the middle of the stage and wait for photographers to be brought around. Just stand there for awhile. Granted I've never gone through SS training, but wouldn't they have immediately surrounded him and basically carried him off the stage and thrown into the SUV, within about two seconds? We wouldn't have seen his face again that day, after he first hit the deck.
  15. This. I have a gal who works for me that is pretty hot and even though she's married, I'd bet I could hit it. But no way I consider that. I honestly don't really understand having an emotional affair outside of the marriage. I get wanting to fuck, but if you want romance with someone else, get a divorce. Your marriage is over.
  16. lol posted to r/photoshoprequest
  17. It’s relevant because it’s all over social media this morning that Wal-Marks prices have skyrocketed because of his tariffs
  18. Well that is disappointing
  19. Maybe I'm out of the loop with how tech companies operate, but 8 C-level people seems like about 4-5 too many. And they don't even have a CFO listed, so that would be at least 9.
  20. Well, this is my specialty as I majored in deadbeatery at Baylor. On Tues/Thurs classes you can miss 7 and on Mon/Wed/Fri you can miss 11 or you get an autofail. The trick is that while that's a university policy, there is no requirement by the prof to take attendance. I was able to graduate with a solid 2.33 while only failing one semester of chapel (stopped going halfway though) and passing the rest of my classes with at least a D. Knowing which professors to take and which ones not to take is half the battle. Once you get into your selected major though then it becomes a necessity to take a course with a hardass or two. I found the best policy there was to miss 5 Tues/Thurs or 9 Mon/Wed/Fri classes in the first month and a half or so to rest up and then save one or two for an unexpected absence near the end.
  21. at the usgs gauge latlong streetview, pivoting 90 degrees and now looking northeast, the bridge over the river is 200' away..... on the 'bridge': panning 90 left, looking upstream from on top of the 'bridge', the gauge has to be somewhere up in here:
  22. We need one of these younger guys to replace Roberson on ST. He was fucking terrible on returns last year.
  23. nah, all those games are too slow/boring. you like it? much more action - what about short deck NH?
