Give me $30 million, and I'll find tremendous hookers, and the best blow.

In the main, he's right. Using the distribution curve, the majority of his customers are average or worse.

Makes sense. Can't beat gravity. It's cheap, too.

Sure, but "repairability" is a continuum: some are really easy, to the point where almost anyone can do it; others are just awful, requiring special tools, skills, and experience.

Still better than anything from MS. I haven't touched that brain cancer in over ten years.

Maga is always mad. If everything were perfect, they'd invent something about which to be angry.

And what good are "treaties" to people that ignore them whenever it's convenient? America's past is littered with broken treaties; just ask the Natives. It's more surprising when America actually honors a treaty, nowadays. In other words, America's word doesn't mean anything.

My "data" is a Hot Wheels collection, with pictures and descriptions - which I have elsewhere, if necessary - so, sure, why not. jk

No, it's news because it interfered with Delta's P/L for the day. That's what matters for corporate media.

When NY shut down banking access - commonly called extortion - for the Seneca Nation (a Native American tribe in western NY, supposedly a "sovereign entity") over disputed payments from the Seneca's casinos to NY, the Feds didn't do shit. Someone in this administration is making bank from Kalshi.

It's possible that, even though he has nearly unlimited funds for higher quality, he cheaped out on radios and personnel to keep costs low. I mean, rich people aren't generally known for their largesse.

Did his X comment provide more context to lead you to your perspective? In fact, if personal safety was Zuckerberg's concern, his team could've put that out as justification for turning down assistance.

C'mon Fred. How'd you get from what I said to that ridiculous response? Republicans do what they do either because they're stupid, or evil. As I said, stupidity will only get you so far: you have to be evil to do some of the things they're doing.

Personally, I'd prefer neither, but we're stuck with Republicans, at the moment, and they're a bit of both.

Wasn't hemp supposed to be so good and so cheap that William Hearst fought a war against it to keep his forest empire profitable? Why aren't we using more hemp, then?

The alternative is stupid, and that only gets you so far.
