Not a bad idea… except they already IPOd and you inject AI into everything to wow angel investors, retail investors are less susceptible to this particular type of bullshit and index funds (reddit on russell 1000) are immune altogether. I suppose there are still wall street wealth manager types who might fall for it while playing with someone else’s money

Game devs make shit money so they were all in it for the games, but realistically most won’t have savings to work for free for the next few years to put out an indie game.

They used to have good games in addition to the dogshit ones. Now it’s just the dogshit. Though to me the cutoff was 14 years ago, when they made the last Mass Effect game.

You can get a knockoff Makita angle grinder off aliexpress for cheap and it works great if you guys still have access to aliexpress. I have a decent set of chinakita tools in the garage myself, only the garden tools and batteries are legit Makita.

Creators already get paid very well for posting on YouTube.

Not since Pewds made some nazi jokes 9 years ago. Think they’re only now getting back to where they were before that.

There are also a ton more people doing a lot of niches, so now you get fewer views.

A good rule of thumb for me is, if I see adverts on YouTube and on TV for the same company or product, then they are charging too much…

That I can agree on, but then again, how would they even sell their product if there’s no advertisement? The companies that don’t charge too much and then stuff some of it into advertisement, tend to go under.

But if a creator has ads on premium that costs x amount each month.

Creator doesn’t really know if you have premium or not and many users (me) will also have adblock so they don’t get a cent from these views. That’s why many will show you ad-free videos on Patreon or Nebula. No sponsor segments if they know you’re a paying customer.

I’ll literally watch Map Men sponsor segments on purpose (along with a few others)

Fair, though since it was a leveraged buyout, I reckon it would be JP Morgan Chase who’d be getting defrauded. The only question is whether MBS wants that kind of image for the saudi PIF.

Essentially, MBS and Kushner would find a way to spin all the valuable IPs into other companies and leave only the debt and maybe some IPs at EA Games. Then it becomes a worthless company that owes JPMorgan Chase 20 billion with a fairly high interest rate.

Isn’t most cheese of any real age essentially lactose free anyway though? I know lactose intolerant people who can eat cheese, but not other dairy products

Like Martin Shkreli in that they’ll increase the price of a life-saving drug 20x without consequences, or like Martin Shkreli in that they’ll go to prison for defrauding rich investors?

Seriously fucked up that the second was considered a crime, but not the first, in Shkreli’s case.

Another Sims? Don’t be daft. They’ll release another Sims DLC and get all the money with much less effort.

Seriously, 4 has been a cash cow for over a decade now, with biannual expansion packs.

Do they definitely have a Portuguese option?

I went on the pt-br nintendo website and looked at the last warioware game (as far as I can tell).

Idiomas compatíveis

Japonês, Inglês britânico, Francês, Alemão, Italiano, Espanhol, Coreano, Holandês, Chinês Simplificado, Espanhol Latino-americano, Francês Canadense, Chinês Tradicional, Inglês Americano

No portuguese in this list. I did also check the pt-pt website and same result

Drones work both ways. If the attackers are using drones in the US, what stops the US from using drones in the attacking nations? If anything, it’s even more of a reason not to attack. China in particular wouldn’t want to deal with what Ukraine is doing to Russia. So many high value industrial targets to bomb. A few bombs in Shenzhen and the production capacity that’s lost by people escaping the city is mind boggling.

But the thing to consider is that the defending nation doesn’t need to be an economic powerhouse, the attacking ones do. You could cripple the US’s economy and more than likely they wouldn’t give up fighting… whereas if you’re on the attacking side and your economy is damaged, people will start asking why the war is even necessary.

I must be too young, I grew up on this:

I’m pretty sure they were referring to From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs which most definitely is not capitalism lol, it’s a joke

In the US there’s already more vacant housing than homeless people. A lot more.

Nobody’s going to invade the US from the outside, you can sleep tight. Completely pointless to even try, y’all are protected by geography before the expensive military even comes into consideration.

Canada and Mexico are the only countries that could invade without being completely bogged down by super long supply lines. Both added together still have a much smaller population than the US. And the US has mountains which can be leveraged to slow down enemy advances.

Let’s say the US finds itself without any allies whatsoever. It would take Canada + Mexico + multiple large, well-equipped countries with large navies to have any real hope of getting the US to surrender. Canada, Mexico and China at the very least, someone would also have to come from the Atlantic side with a large navy. It would have to be from all 4 sides, not necessarily at once either - get the US to concentrate the forces to either the atlantic or pacific coast, then surprise them from the other side with an even larger force.

Basically pointless to try, nobody is this stupid. The US is more likely to have an internal coup.

Personally I got more leaks when changing some gaskets recently. Because I disturbed some o-rings that I didn’t replace.

Entire engine valley’s o-rings and gaskets getting replaced now, one gasket is getting re-replaced because it’s a metal one. But this photo is absolutely how I feel about this entire job.

Yes. It’s because a corporation, particularly a distant foreign one, is anonymous so you don’t think about it as much whereas if some local guy leaked her nudes, it would most likely reach her friends and family. At least that’s what I think is the reason.

What are all the conceivable ways to you? Anyway, the Renault 5 is almost as much as the bigger id.3 neo here and we don’t have anyone selling the Alpine version as it’s more expensive than the 5 and thus too expensive for such a tiny car.

And all of these cost at least 4x as much as a similarly sized but lower power BYD does in China. That’s how much cheaper the Chinese can build their cars. When they sell the same batteries to Renault or VW, the batteries alone likely cost about as much as BYD’s entire car. And we can’t really produce these batteries at such scale here in Europe because of pollution regulation. China processes most of the world’s lithium and cobalt. Only hope we have is coming up with a magic battery chemistry that doesn’t come with a ton of environmental issues, but unfortunately Donut Labs is more than likely a scam.
