   What’s the BS with “Open models from teams we trust.”?

   No tech can fix incompetence. That being said some say it was just a budget cut(cgi is cheaper if you can't seen anything)

   So how do you watch international/foreign movies?

   Indeed but then people found out they don't care about what's behind the ticker (i.e underlying value) as long as its price goes up. You can find the same behaviour on many stocks as well(i.e $AMC more recently).

   It's just history(i.e [1] )not conspiracy theories. We are past that. Same thing about surveillance. It used to be "conspiracy theories" but wikileaks and Snowden showed us that the truth is even worse. [1] https:/&#x2F

   I believe Musk is starting to loose its shine unless gets another rabbit out the hat. The Tesla Bot may be a such attempt but it's a hard sell because it's not really something new(i.e Boston Dynamics have been trying it for decad

   But celebrities endorse gambling so how is this any different? Do people really think they are winners if they play online "slot" games?

    > Stocks are different because there’s actually an underlying business beyond “waiting for the next guy”. I agree but this doesn't change the fact that many people don't care about the underlying business and often the stock pr

    Some people still live in denial. I can surely see CIA paying a visit to Ghana's officials.

    cryptocurrencies don't have to be ponzi schemes but most of them are because the crypto "investors" want to get into ponzi schemes. They don't "believe" in shitcoin's "white paper" but they belie

    But only one entity prints dollars so that's the catch/unfair advantage of the U.S.

    But there should be no death as the beta is not supposed to be used "in production" (i.e without keeping your hands on the wheel)

    >> The Fed decision wasn't important to energy costs anyway, though. Of course it was. Rate hiking makes the dollar more expensive for anyone buying dollars(to pay for the oil). Were they dealing with gold they would not have thi

    >> Gold is valued in dollars. Oil is valued in dollars. If a long term contract is signed it protects you from dollar's inflation/volatility as the contract used gold as currency. I think this is important as tomorrow Fed&#x

    I think this is to be expected(sooner or later) for small businesses dealing with "big tech". You are just a small number in an ocean of "users" so suspending you is really no different than suspending your twitter accou

    So if you hire 6000 people in Ireland you can doge taxes for all the products sold in Europe, right?

    Does this beta has any roadmap to become "stable"? The issue with FSD is the corner cases and I doubt we will see real FSD anytime soon. I would say the beta FSD is the equivalent of an intoxicated driver.

    I fail to see any value other than fliping "worthless" coins. The coins fliping is not working great either which is the reason we have binance and ftx. The real value seems to be for money launderying and scam payments though so

    I think there would be value but we neeed a real currency(i.e usd) on the blockchain. It's obvious that all those pegged currencies are prone to "bank run" scenarios. Not to mention the fiat conversion ruines the whole experi

    I know what you are saying but I'm not conflating these separate issues. The argument was made that UK cannot control its borders from non-EU immigrants because Italy at the time was giving them enough papars so they could travel legal

    >> Does a sermon instantly make it bad? I think it does when it's "in your face" like the latest movies. It feels like a kind of propaganda that I'm not interested in. I just want to enjoy my time and watch a f***

    I really doubt it. Source: I was a kid. Sex scenes definitely did not fly over. It was something I did not understand and somehow affected my behaviour more than violence between robots.

    I really doubt that kind of stuff passes the cut without approval from Disney executives. Have you watched Eternals?

    Hopefully Disney will cut the political sermon from the next movies. I've just watched "Eternals" and couldn't believe it's a Disney movie.

    Italy has been a "mess" for decades and it's still fine. Of course it's no longer a world leader but life is not that bad in Italy.
