  1. I regret on Tesla Reports Second-Consecutive Profit; CFO Retires Again · · Score: 0, Troll

    I regret shorting Tesla stock. It was the biggest mistake I ever made! I lost a bundle when the stock skyrocketed last year. I should have listened. But I bought a bunch of Tesla stock last week so I am guaranteed to make it all back (and more)

    You mean a machine performed self-calibration? Welcome to 2019 style "engineering".

    I only use the AMPS network. I knew this "3G" stuff looked bad.

  5. I see what you mean.

  6. How would this make a dent in "content creator's revenue"?

  7. Re:Why a pouch? on Schools Are Locking Students' Phones Away to Help With Concentration (fortune.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    That's what schools do. Or they just tell the students to turn it off and put it in their existing backpack. But Yondr paid some school to use their bags and they are going to get a mention on Fortune. It is the "new journalism".

  8. Nice advertisment on Schools Are Locking Students' Phones Away to Help With Concentration (fortune.com) · · Score: 2

    Nice advertisement for "tech startup" Yondr. I thought tech startups stopped the "drop the last vowel thing" a while ago.

    Interesting. I'm glad rodents are too lazy to go the extra acre. All those people with less than 4 acre properties must be absolutely infested.

    Why do you mow 4 acres?

    Eventually you will not be allowed to connect to the Internet unless you are using a closed "approved" hardware device using "approved" software that has been registered with your real name. It is coming.

  13. SpaceX fanboys are weird. Apparently they think they are the only ones launching stuff.

    SpaceX launched 19 last year. China launched 37. SpaceX fanboys are delusional.

    Weird. There are other private launch providers. Do you guys really think SpaceX is the only private one? Very strange. Must be the Elon effect. Oh well, idiots abound.

    I don't get it. Why is it impressive where the money comes from? There have been plenty of of private launch companies (including Chinese ones). I think people think SpaceX is something new. Very weird. It guess it is the Elon effect.

    Why is it impressive when private capital does it? Launching rockets just requires money. It isn't like we haven't been launching satellites for 50 years now. All of the sudden people act like launching satellites is amazing, now that the egotistical tech guys got interested in buying rocket companies so they can pretend they are saving humanity or whatever they are imagining.

    Sorry sunshine. I'll rephrase:

    Let me guess: you are a snowflake and you are upset because I dare to question why on the "BEST MOVIES OF ALL TIME", the out of the top 10 films there are Black Panther (#1), Lady Bird (#3), Get Out (#5), BlackKKlansman (#6), Mad Max: Fury Road (#7). My point is that anyone online poll/rating is GAMED by those with an agenda, whether it be social, political or financial. Do you see a theme of the movies? It is the same thing with these "top languages" polls. There are whatever the person selling the report wants the answer to be. It doesn't reflect any sort of reality and it is 100% dishonest. That is why it upsets me so much. So take your "guesses" and shove it.

  21. It is extremely accessible..

    So is meth.

  23. Right. So "Lady Bird" is the 3rd most "generally likeable" movie of ALL TIME. And 7 out of the top 10 most "generally likeable" movies came out in 2017/18. OK. You win.

  24. Let me break it down for you guys, since apparently you don't understand until I spell it out: RT is gamed. RT is gamed by the movie studios, people with an agenda, Netflix, Amazon, whoever pays for favorable ratings, etc. In the "BEST MOVIES OF ALL TIME" list (https://www.rottentomatoes.com/top/), 7 of the top 10 movies are from 2017/18. Many of them weren't even seen by many people. Most of the "Certified Fresh" stuff is SCHLOCK. "Spider Man 10", "Batman 7". On the "BEST MOVIES OF ALL TIME" list, the THIRD ONE is "Lady Bird" (grossed $47 million!). That doesn't make sense, and doesn't even align with other review sites (7.4 out of 10 on IMDB) but 98% on RT. It is pretty scary what people will believe.

  25. Who said I disagreed? My opinion on the movies doesn't matter. If you think that the "best" movies of ALL TIME (from the website) are Black Panther, Wizard of Oz, and Lady Bird (and two of them just happened to come out in 2018) then you are just stupid. If you don't think the system is gamed, I don't know what to same.
