There’s a (now defunct) website called Hindenburg Investments that specialized in Short Selling companies they research, dig up criminal misconduct on, and then report to the SEC/FBI/etc.

The last report they released was on PACS, a company that was caught swindling Medicaid to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.

After Trump won the election, I took a gamble on “Scams and Frauds” investing and picked up 1000 shares in this heavily depressed company. Trumps’ admin effectively dropped the investigation and charges on the firm, causing its stock price to triple.

Just something for the savvy investor to look out for in the future.

Companies can take out loans against projects on their books in order to finance delivery. And because banks are often run by people more greedy than careful, this opens an easy second hand swindle by which you claim yourself as a government contractor with a $300M project, borrow the balance at some percentage you don’t care about, and then never pay it back.

Yeah, sure. Your name is burned. But for a healthy cut of a nine figure job, who cares? This ballroom is twice what the Ocean’s Eleven team heisted, and it’s all legal.

It’s a weird fetishization of the need for data. Like, we already have the NSA, which operates on the order of Zetabytes, nevermind the FBI, the CIA, and the rest of the three letter agencies.

What is Trump going to do with a local data center that he couldn’t already do through DOGE at any of the existing centers?

Did someone seriously sell him on installing the Singularity in his basement?

“The right thing to do would be to sell WB to Amazon”, Brosnan continued, as sweat poured of his brow.

Eyes darting nervously, he continued haltingly, “we need… a strong and… productive environment for the… entertainment Bezos - business! I mean business! Please, don’t harm my wife! I did what you dema-” before the video feed was cut short.

Maybe even get to 12 by the end of the week.

Muscles are crazy like that

“I’m a US Senator and I’m saying something obvious, please do an article about me!!!”

Paul’s (and his noxious friend Mike Lee’s) faux-libertarianism has been barely a speed bump for this Presidency. So much for Small Government.

This is fucking stupid.

It’s stupid because the game has already received a stack of awards a mile high. Nobody seriously cares about this. Nobody’s sales will be hurt in any meaningful capacity. It’s a dumb awards show, not the FCC.

People are going to use the tools available if it leads to quicker development cycles to get a product out.

I think this “placeholder art” is a silly line to draw. But the high profile of the game makes it a ripe target to make a statement.

If you really don’t want to reward people for “quicker development” over the human touch, might as well pick a game everyone already bought and highlight folks who did their dev work organically

Critiquing the visual appearance of architecture sounds like some Woke Leftist Liberal Arts shit to me.

My parents raised me in a hole under a tree stump and it built my character. Now I’m the assistant manager at three different car dealerships. You lefties with your indoor plumbing and central air will never have this much success

Everyone already has E. coli in their guts.

How do you think he smuggled it?

Lefty Memes but it’s a day dedicated to Southpaws

The goal of these rules is to minimize the utility of SNAP benefits and discourage application for and usage of these benefits.

Okay, she erased them. But did she remember to click “Empty Recycle Bin”

Liberty is when the government fears the people.

I think that’s Leninism

Liberty protects but does not bind

Tyranny binds but does not protect

Maduro knows Trump cannot go to war in Venezuela.

In the same way Zelensky knew Putin would never invade the Donbas, sure.

“This would be a stupid Pyrrich struggle that would cost tens of thousands of American lives and trillions of dollars with no real material benefits!”

Because the Americans haven’t done anything exactly like this before.

Idk about “any county”. This looks like a clear case of “countries with advanced navies get to steal boats from countries without them”

You don’t think they are already using the surveillance state/surveillance capitalism in this process?

A lot of people are being picked up at their immigration hearings, at traffic stops, and at their jobs. This is all information already in the public record. You don’t need surveillance to be marked as a legal immigrant.

You should state your opinions without making aggressive, worst-faith assumptions of others.

“Russians control Reddit! I demand you take my assertion in good faith and be nice to me.”

Okay buddy.

If you said Russians are the reason you’re always missing one sock in your dryer, half of Reddit would agree.
