@jon-nyc said in Are we in an AI bubble?: @89th said in Are we in an AI bubble?: … shift to low-risk investments around Sept or Oct 2027. And what might those be? That’s what makes this time, dare I say it, different. The old concept of ‘flight to quality’ (Treasuries) is no longer reliable. Yeah I don't really know. Maybe I'd shift my 401Ks from moderately/aggressive mode into low risk profile. I always say I'll do that but as we all know...you can't really time the market. My goal is to retire around the years 2035-2039 which will be a lot of fun when the country becomes insolvent and the great dollar worldwide crash hits. Guess I can always throw it into gold... the Egyptians and Larry were right about one thing, and I'm not talking about their reverence for pussy.

I didn't need to read that story. Ugh.

@AndyD said in The Epstein File: So is Trump(CF) acting as a dictator? Is he a dictator? Yeah as Jon said, he pushes the envelope. IMO as much as I think he's abhorrent on so many levels, he doesn't really get close to the dictator thing. Now, if he defied the judicial branch and told them "ok now enforce your ruling with no army" or began using the military for more than parades and raking mulch in DC, I could see the threat.

The PC is the diagonal, and the internet is the frog. Because a good analogy is like a diagonal frog.

Well I haven't done a bit of research on this particular dunk, and just to keep things interesting, I won't. But I just bet that she won't be bringing charges that weren't approved by the grand jury. I also bet that you haven't done any research about this story, and neither has jon. You just love the screenshot, suspiciously link-free. I am sure this link-free graphic is how it appeared on jon's Twitter feed. Such a great dunk. Just look at how Ax reads it. Apparently Comey is going to be charged with murder 1, or something. Because TDS.

@AndyD said in Time guesser: Fun, I scored 44,597/50,000 Me too.

apparently some of us are coming around to the realization that there can be legit principled people who made up the maga movement. Just kidding, that realization is not within their grasp.

@89th said in The one thing that can save traditional media?: @Mik said in The one thing that can save traditional media?: @jon-nyc The problem with that is they are sampling things that have already been created. Once AI is most all of what's out there to sample you get into this content death spiral. Funny, I was just thinking this morning how content could get into its own self-referencing vortex. It seems like a solvable problem. Not too worried about that one.

lol

Not a cheery article. I can't help but wonder where we would be if the west had supported Ukraine more whole-heartedly. All for using the frozen Russian assets. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/zelensky-is-losing-touch-with-reality/ar-AA1QGvyu

I would imagine so, it being a news station and this being news.

In fairness, public messagers like the Bee are different from TNCR posters, in their culpability.

@Renauda said in Mildly interesting: https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20251117-the-animals-that-can-eat-poisons-and-not-die That's interesting. On a very loosely related subject, it struck me that if cats and dogs ever did go to war, the felines could triumph very quickly with the use of chocolate-based WMD's.

I've actually never listened to her. My strongest impression about her was when she was standing at Trump's left shoulder in some speech he was giving in his first run. I remarked about how beautiful she was. She has taken some turns, because the culture has given her leverage. It wasn't the culture that directed her, it was her inclinations. She's as crazy as people will be, without boundaries.

That is cool. Their whole goal was frequent, reusable, economic launches. I posted in the New Glenn thread, the Blue Origin stuff gets a lot of jokes because how far "behind" it is than SpaceX, but I really enjoyed the 1.5 hour watching of those 2 behind-the-scenes tour with Jeff Bezos, it really, really, dare I say, really shed light into all of the work and decisions that goes into building reusable boosters and orbital vehicles. It also shows you what can happen if you have 100 billion dollars and are very smart. Kind of like @jon-nyc if he had 99 more billion dollars and 99 more smart.
