USD Inflation is ~3% per year currently, which is easy to beat with a high yield savings account. Anything more than 6 months should definitely go into an index fund though.

Most reasonable people have decided that everyone gets to have an unsubstantiated belief system that goes into the “Religion” slot and it’s not a big deal as long as no one makes it a Big Deal. Reasonable people have decided this because trying to proactively eliminate it is way harder and god-awful than just letting it ride (once again, as long as no one makes it a Big Deal).

Apple hit a sweet spot with this. x86_64 applications run at acceptable speed (making the transition easy for people who buy the hardware) while not being SO good that there’s zero reason for developers to start porting their software.

Keep buying!

Apes never have any proof of their shit. They just pick a shit stock, declare it naked shorted, and proceed to lose a bunch of money lmao

Buddy, only Apes are on the “naked short” conspiracy train. I didn’t even need to check your history to know it’s full of DRS GME dumb shit.

How heavy are your GME bags?

Time for Web4

Centralized communities all turn into what Twitter and Reddit became eventually. They benefits for the owners (money, control) are too great to ignore forever once you’re big enough. Decentralized communities have more resilience, provided no individual server gets too big.

Podcasts seem to have figured out monetizing without centralization.

lmao okay dude. That’s a lot of projection.

It may surprise you to know that in a thread where I advocate for the US giving Ukraine cluster munitions, that I don’t care that Ukraine has been using cluster munitions.

As stated by another, your Pentagon source is out of date. It’s pretty funny though that you reject HRW saying Russia is using them, but use HRW as your source that Ukraine is.

WRT chemical weapons: different things are different. When you can contain things in an AOR, I’m less concerned about the lingering effects. Areas can be closed off and cleared, especially when you’re the one that dropped them. That’s way less possible with chemical weapons, that will literally drift with the wind.

2. Chemical weapons: no, due to their effects easily leaving the AOR. Petal mines: yes. Crimea and the Donbas are occupied Ukrainian territory.

Truth hurts.

1. Russia is already using them

2. I’ll defer to the defenders WRT what weapons they need.

Buddy, lots of us had outrage when the US invaded Iraq. You just can’t handle when the conversation shifts from it for 5 minutes because an even worse thing is happening.

Yep, and that’s a good thing.

“But Iraq!” is literally all these people have. As if two things can’t be bad at the same time.

That’s my emotional support lol you will not take it from me
