I'll chime in with my thoughts as a middle age millenial.

Between my wife and I, we bring home right around $100K a year after taxes, 401K, health insurance, etc.

I find it very hard to "save" in the sense of saving liquid cash, or "padding" the bank account. Now we both contribute to our 401Ks and have a couple of roth accounts. But we arent close to being able to max our contributions to those or hsa much less just stash money in a savings account. We have a modest house in a suburb of Baton Rouge, It's 50 years old and needs repairs. We have two cars, one paid off and one with a note less than $500/mth. Two kids in public school. I dont think $100K is impossible, but it is damn sure feeling more and more difficult. I've picked up a second job just to supplement our income. In order to max our contributions to 401ks, IRAs, and HSA, we'd need about an additional $65K per year of gross income.
It bothers me that his guitar is legitimately out of tune the whole time

As someone who frequently buys their product, this is crazy because half the time they are out of stock to the equipment I need.

No, they are not a big player in data center space, and in my opinion never will be. They in recent years have made enterprise grade routing and switching hardware, but that will be a slow adoption process just because they have always been more of a "pro"sumer and small business leader

Can we keep the poliboard insults over in it's cesspit and just talk about actual effects to the financial markets?

Reagan is the one that pushed the boulder down the hill. His economic policy is what created it. Each president after just added to it.

Why can't NBIS and HGRAF be green on the same day

This is how it is with new regulation. Just like all the porpising last time. That's how we got "Change your fricking car!"
Well my power just went out. Guess I’ll finish the race tomorrow…
Ferrari has a second chance now
If Lindblad knows what’s good for his career he’d let Max by. Marko never forgets
Well an AM finally went out
Welp. Max will finish ahead of his teammate
Verstappen gonna screw around and win this thing
That Ferrari is a monster this year
I’ve got multiview on Hadjars cam because I’m expecting some lap one collisions at the front. So Max very well could beat him
