  1. I subscribed to them because they are doing work. They know the tech market and with so many tech-bros in the administration now, it only made sense for them to angle this as a way to get in on government reporting. They are damn solid. BTW - Prof G markets had a bit up on their "earnings" call last week calling them out. Basically note that Tesla is at this point a meme coin - I cued this up for the piece.
  2. Old, but should be read (article isn't behind a paywall)
  3. Six - including a double letter use.

  5. Coming back to this, because was this an attempt at a bribe? Probably. https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/meta-zuckerberg-ftc-lawsuit-trump-b2734360.html The gist of the story is this: The FTC feels their case is pretty strong, and they talked about settling with Instabook for $30 BILLION and a consent decree. This offer came from Andrew Ferguson, Trump's new head of the FTC. Zuck's counter offer, $450 Million and a few changes in policies. When Ferguson said no deal, Zuck went to Trump directly in Feb & March, almost got the deal accepted but Ferguson's team convinced the administration to let the lawsuit continue. The WSJ has the full story, but that is behind a paywall - https://www.wsj.com/us-news/law/mark-zuckerberg-meta-antitrust-ftc-negotiations-a53b3382 L fucking O L
  6. And if you need instructions
  7. Is John Henry not there? I saw the missus (oddly in purple).
  8. They are talking about the back room teams that make these clubs go. That is what Spurs lack.
  9. Im glad Liverpool is getting to celebrate with the fans this year.
  10. We lost to these guys 6-0. I think 5-1 was generous for these guys.
  11. Manager of the year: 1. Slot 2. NES 3+ Doesn’t matter
  12. Liverpool working Spurs again. But showing their championship quality today. Worthy champions.
  13. That could go either way. I don’t care. 4-1, 5-1 doesn’t matter.
  14. Worth champions. And showing it off today.
  15. Well not much of a shock with how this is going.
  16. No argument there. The first pass was the only iffy one. The second was clear.
  17. That should be on and a goal.
  18. Also - are we allowed to score first?
  19. Making them earn it.
  20. I just hope the boys don’t lose too bad.
  21. Zuck doesn’t need motivation for that. His standard mode is β€œdo worse shit”. He has never had a good idea in his life, the only good ones were stolen from others.
