Welcome to Gavin Newsom’s California.

@Horace said: I wonder if we'll be treated to a creative and captivating demise story for AndreaB someday. LOL. And she knows George-K.

Piano virtuoso with a great sense of humor: Link to video

Farage/Starmer, meh ---- We had Biden-Harris/Trump.

There will barely be enough oxygen to fit in ballroom dunks amongst the rest of the anti-Trump rhetoric we'll see leading up to the midterms.

Yeah he would have done much worse in t-bills than in stocks. That’s true over probably any 20 year period in history.

Follow your passion.

He definitely has a great voice and presentation. (on another note, at what point is changes in video quality no longer visible by the human eye?)

Huge yachts are particularly funny to me, not that I wouldn't like to experience them maybe once. But at the end of the day it can't be any nicer than a nice hotel room. Or, perish the thought, a nice stay in your own luxurious home. The view and whatever magical feeling you might get from being on the ocean (and I'm very sure that passes quickly) is the only difference.

The populists are really unhappy with the idea of AI taking over for human production. Certain American political movements will happily strangle our global competitiveness going forward.

Trojan is a terrible name for a condom. It’s basically named after something that penetrated the stronghold, broke open, thousands of little guys poured out, and ruined everyone’s lives.

Rigetti and D-Wave up 15x over the past 2.5 years. Unfortunately, I only bought like USD$100 of each. LOL.

I thought that was a job requirement.

Just saw an update that says he's no longer in ICU. Also other reports that he's looking for his stay to be covered by a 9/11 fund. At first glance I thought 'he's on medicare, what does he care?' but it sounds like such an approval will make him eligible for victim compensation. Hopefully that can help payoff his creditors and not his estate.

I grew up in a MCM split level. 3 bedrooms upstairs (with 1 1/2 baths). Down 6 steps to kitchen, living and dining rooms. Lower (ground level) had a "rec" room with exit to the backyard. I say "grew up" tongue-in-cheek, tbh. The first house I bought was a 2 bedroom Cape Cod.

I don't know enough about it, but the comments indicate skepticism as to the price (the $150 is for a starter dose) and effectiveness.
