IDK I have a pair of Clark’s that look just like that

This is painful to talk about.

I’ve never talked about it to anyone before but I’ll tell it here.

… deep breath

On the morning of November 2, 2021 I bought calls on AVIS car rental company after they had reported earnings. I bought the 2 weeks out $180 strike. The day before earnings the stock closed at $171.46. Pretty risky, more than my usual. There was slight “pop” after earnings but it kinda faded in the first 45 minutes the market was open. After I put the trade on, I told myself that this was a shortsighted, greedy trade and so I sold calls at the $185 strike — turning my original position into a vertical call spread- limiting my possible losses while capping any gains - which I considered unlikely.

Hours after I made the trade, the stock squeezed and ran all the way up to $545. All I could do was sit and watch as commas were getting added to what had been my original position.

That was hard on me… f*ed me up for awhile.

Anything that creates heat is going to require A LOT of electricity. That truck might run a heater for 20 mins. If the truck is running… it gets complicated…

If that’s gonna be his thing then before this storm moves in, I would suggest plugging their coffee pot - toaster- or a hair dryer in there and see how the truck behaves. Be prepared to jump the truck afterwards.


Personally, I wouldn’t expect it to work very long.

Beats Pro 2 -- Huge upgrade in sound quality from my previous earbuds. I didn't think they'd be worth the $250 they cost, but yeah.... the price is fair for the quality of sound.

I’m out of the loop. There’s an incoming ban? They just lowered the content amount didn’t they?

If you’re still driving with your hands at 10 and 2 then you deserve to have both of your wrists broken when that airbag explodes at 300 mph.

Then you’ll come on the OT complaining about how you can’t type, and voice to text sucks because it can’t understand you saying “baw” and that in 2025 you should be able to up/down vote with a voice command.

Am I close?

Just last week I learned that most of the languages (native) spoken in Africa do not have a word for “ maintenance” or for the concept “to maintain”.

Initially I was surprised… then it made sense.

Nigerian guy told me this.

This is easier to understand.

I have a hard time believing the text messages. Why does the shooter have to tell the boyfriend that his dad (shooter’s) has become MAGA. Seems like something that would have already been know to the boyfriend.

I’m a Discord Admin for a very large, easily recognizable game and I can tell you for certain, a 22 year old doesn't communicate this way… especially in text.

The fact that the university and “their” apartment are about a 4 hour drive away just raises more questions. They brought the boyfriend in and immediately cleared him? Why wasn’t the boyfriend detained for at least 24 hours while the apartment was getting raided?

Machine Learning and neural networks have been around for a very long time. Used in a lot of processes. Managers/C-suite level folks realized that Wall Street/ investors would/will blindly throw money at a company who says they have/use/implement Artificial Intelligence. As a result, “everything” has become AI. Machine learning and neural networks are extremely powerful but not AI. Chat GPT, Grok… they’re Large Language Models. It takes words you write, turns them into a math/numbers matrix, then converts its numbers back into words. It’s just math and computer science [/url][/img]

It's hard to have an intellectually honest conversation about climate science unless you also talk about the effects of Geoengineering.

I usually put Married with Children reruns on to fall asleep to. It’s funnier now than it was when it came out. It’s on the Classic Families channel at night. Anyway, there were a lot of ads on there opposing the amendments.

Saw 75 of 79 precincts have reported for the St. George election. Means there is still 21 precincts out there that are probably in SWB territory. NBR is notoriously slow in counting votes.

If I were gonna write a list of bad ideas…

Is there any chance he can get tapped for some position in DC for the Trump Admin… nothing cabinet… but enough to get him to move on??

You mean 50+ intelligence folks who signed off on the fabricated Russia- Pee-Pee Gate hoax... who knew it was made up but still signed off on it... Yeah lets keep those people around.
