This is why I thought Blink Twice was the most realistic horror movie I've ever seen. I new that kind of thing was happening some place.

Does it matter what percentage of parts are manufactured in the US?
I feel like it did. I don't recall.

Sounds like you buy a lot of weed.

That is a tall claim.
Citation needed.

Not at all. You can absolutely choose not to vaccinate. It just limits the places you're able to work, or send your kids to school.

The freedom to swing your arms, ends at someone else's nose. If you choose to set yourself up to spread a deadly infection, it makes sense for society to limit your chance of doing so.

Of course it is!

They're not promising they won't be hacked again.
They're only promising they'll try not to be. Which is promising practically nothing.

People looking at a strobing light, start to see it as just "on" (not blinking anymore) at almost exactly 60Hz.
In double blind tests, pro gamers can't reliably tell 90fps from 120.
There is however, an unconscious improvement to reaction time, all the way up to 240fps. Maybe faster.

As common a tactic as it is, it's not actually a denial of the allegations.
It's an accusation of "Everyone does it, but they're targeting me! Not fair!"

It certainly is; Otherwise that derogatory comment itself would be illegal.

I think you may have an unworkable concept of what "solving" the plastic problem means, when you can't tell the difference between a film and a bottle. Both of which have largely phased out BPA already.

They were both started in Feb 2023. So there isn't a long track record to go by.

In the last 12 months.
NANC has gained 40%.
KRUZ has gained 27%.
VTSAX has gained 33.8%. (Vanguard total stock index)

They both have expense ratios of 0.75%.
VTSAX is 0.04%.
So you loose nearly 1% each year in management fees. That's a lot.

 

Kagi AI summery:
Cards Against Humanity (CAH) is suing SpaceX for allegedly taking over a plot of land on the US/Mexico border that CAH purchased in 2017 to prevent the construction of Trump's border wall. CAH claims it maintained the land but SpaceX later moved construction equipment and materials onto the property without permission. The lawsuit seeks up to $15 million in damages to restore the land and cover losses, and also requests punitive damages. CAH says SpaceX never asked for permission to use the property and never apologized for the damage. The lawsuit includes before and after photos purporting to show SpaceX's use of the land.

And CAH's website all about it
