  1. They did it. They identified the true cause of inflation.
  2. Maybe someone remind him its been 3 years in college and hes stull outside the top 15 in passer rating…
  3. But i also have to buy a suction tool and spudger and adhesive and will probably crack the screen during disassembly.
  4. Almost 1 month update. I was stuck in a small meeting room all day, so lots of staring at the back of my phone sitting on its face on the table and noticing nothing weird. Then I step outside with my phone for a short break, and sometime later im staring at the phone again and notice a fucking crack across the main camera lens. Local apple store quotes about $500 to replace the “primary camera”, and $1100 to replace the entire camera module. Work insurance will take care of it probably with a full phone replacement, but wtf man.
  5. Big four head in California? Hes talking about Chrissy Teigen
  6. lmao people actually go to a quinn ewers thread to talk about quinn ewers amirite
  7. i was told quinn is a sure top-10 draft pick
  8. Also, while its fun to make fun of the “mental midget” from Allen….he was the most decorated high school player of all time, won the heisman in his first year as a starter, took NFL rookie of the year the following year, and then stacked 2 consecutive Pro Bowls afterwards — 1 year in which he accounted for 37 touchdowns.
  9. If he's a top 10 pick, why is his declaring for the draft an "if"? And what analysts or sports sites has the 4th QB going in the top 10?
  10. Is this the one with 1 hour of Josephine's tits? asking for me.
  11. Ya'll playing. After CJ's first starting season, he was already graded by ESPN NFL Draft tracker as the #1 QB ahead of Bryce Young, and #3 overall prospect. No other QB came even close to those 2, except Will Levis at #20. http://web.archive.org/web/20220915110030/https://insider.espn.com/nfl/draft/rankings?year=2023
  12. Political connections for regulatory interests... man's rolodex has a lot of value
  13. MB paid 15B for a graphing software and 30B for a chatting software (Tableau & Slack), so I wouldn't characterize 1B for Quip as a rip off.... Relatively speaking.
  14. i posted this more than once: regular emails from Macys or Best Buy is rationalizable. i skim the regular newsletter from the sporting goods retailer because I buy their stuff frequently. but weekly spam from real estate agents and car dealerships.... wtf? like, hey, its Juneteenth, I guess I'll just buy another $80k SUV. dude, i dont give a shit if theres a Columbus Day Sale at the Dodge Ram Emporium.
  15. to microsoft's credit, you can actually see changes in the product from week to week -- some of it actually useful -- which is amazing to witness from a 50-year old, 200k employee, 3 trillion dollar company.
  16. What are people listening on XM/Sirius that they find indispensable? Is it just live sports broadcast? I've tried it on web and in countless car rentals over 2 decades and could never find a channel that could hold my attention for more than a few minutes. Always preferred my own downloaded programming, and now with the ubiquity of phone based streaming, i'd figured it would be their death knell.
  17. You have zero capacity to burn anything down, let's clear that up first. The utter banality of your one-track album -- seller greed -- is that profit maximization has been a constant since the first Sumerian demanded the most bushels of wheat from his 1 leg of lamb. One party in a transaction can't be the first order driver of price change, because one party can't settle the price, and their self-interest does not change over time. What does change over time are binary events, like a central bank establishing benchmark rates; a gigantic fucking party (=the gov) using their discretion to distribute massive quantities of money; exogenous shocks like droughts or floods; all of which send large impulses through the system that disturb pricing along its wake. These things are all far more significant, and more obviously plausible.... than someone arbitrarily charged more today, because they had forgotten to do it yesterday. Or you know, stick with your framework that the Egg guys stopped being able to "get away with it", whereas the Butter guys are still flying under the radar.
