I don't for a second believe there is anything material about trump in the Epstine files.

They leaked his tax returns.
They leaked the abortion decision early.

IRS shit and the supreme court is some of the most protected things our gov't has. If there was anything meaningful in the Epstine files, that shit would have been leaked years ago in 2020, if not in 2024
Then he should have no issue releasing the list. Anyone who's covering for pedophiles so they can continue designing and running society gets the woodchipper as well.

It might have been posted months back when the tariffs were announced and the lines went down.
I swear to God, people have gotten way too comfortable with the US stock market having absurd unsustainable returns. Chantings line can't go up forever is silly. But what can't go up forever is valuations and the US market is at historic fucking highs.

People need to get real comfortable with the idea the US market can drop 75% and not bounce back, because that is what it would take for US stock prices to mach the rest of the world when compared to profit.

People are either going to feel the pain of a correction or feel the pain of low returns. You can't avoid it forever and we are now nearly at the point where not a person alive remembers when the US wasn't going through valuations soaring up compared to the rest of the world.

The only tragedy is the boomers will almost certainly die before everyone has to eat this shit sandwich that funded their entire lives

Also the S&P 500 is up over 6% in real dollars year to date. Again, people need realistic and conservative estimations of what stock markets do. 6% up in real terms just over half way through the year should be considered fantastic in your planning.

There is no real practical difference between the civic and the challenger, if the ECU fails the engine is toast. Are we building technology for the assumption that we're going to die in nuclear hellfire and have to rebuild from the ashes or are we building a better car?
Statistics continue to show that the number one reason a car will fail is lack of maintenance leading to issues with the drivetrain. While an ECU is a failure point, it isn’t actually a common cause for a broken down car.
 
I don't give two fucks if the USD I've made in the market won't buy as many Korean Won as they used to.
You should so long as everything is manufactured in those countries so you're paying more and more USD to import those products. In your example Korea is currently negotiating their tariff deal so you'll likely by adding another 15% on top of the ever growing number of dollars that Korean product costs.

Probably because there isn't much going on right now
True but it’s just weird, it couldn’t have been brought up when the election was happening? I know it was a little bit but everyone is so hyper focused on it now, which is good I think don’t get me wrong but… why? Nothing really is happening, sure, but that’s how it is like 70% of the time. Why now specifically
 
Whoa Hillary Clinton is cool. She just goes around and has a good time and enjoys the moment.
Can one of you guys who is good at this stuff do a video edit that makes it look like hillary clinton is making that wow face when she sees donald trump doing his ymca dance? Oh and then post it in this thread and please tag me so I see it, thank you.

Two weeks ago the DOJ announced that:
A) Epstein killed himself
B) Epstein was just a run-of-the-mill chomo albeit a prolific one
C) There was no client list or even evidence of clients

This was after teasing since the inauguration that there would be full disclosure on the Epstein case. A couple months ago, there was an event with MAGA influences where they were handed thick binders titled "The Epstein Files: Phase 1." It turned out that the documents had all been disclosed before and there was no new information released. Everyone thought it was gay and retarded but people held out hope for future so-called phases. Pam Bondi even said on Fox News that she had the list on her desk ready for review.

So after blue-balling a sizeable chunk of the base, Pam Bondi comes out and says "nothing to see here" and Trump indignantly states that he doesn't understand why people still care about Epstein. He goes as far as disavowing followers who are hung up on Epstein. Even if Epstein was just a kiddie diddler acting alone and he really did commit suicide, the administration handled it in possibly the most retarded way you could. You are now here in the present and a small but sizeable chunk of the base is pissed and Democrats are scoring cheap points from an unforced error.

tl;dr it's still a happening because of how big a non-happening it was

I don't get why Trump loves Bimbondi so much, she seems like a huge liability at this point.
 
Wake up, babe, new white cop/black victim story.
From what I hear, the full body cam from the police tells a different story and shows the guy was quite non cooperative before the situation escalated and before the start of the clip making its rounds on the internet. Still, I expect there to be a lawsuit filed and for this to get uglier than it needs to be.

I'm not saying that's right or the best business decision. Personally I think it's a shit business decision as it increases complexity in operations for a questionable benefit. But that's how top brass thinks about it. You are, as always, expendable to them.

Edit: I want to add my belief that the future of tech is lean teams of 3 to 5 US guys going hard and using the tools they have to build better products. Like MS and Google are literally trash now, imho. I fucking hate MS with a passion for how fucked up it is.
Too many firms think the solution is to throw as many low-wage entry-level workers as possible at a project to solve it. Spoiler: it almost always fails. Sadly, few are willing to open the purse strings to get the 3-5 competent, motivated team members who would do the job right, on time, and under budget. Corporate greed always bites these companies in the butt.

AI can actually get worse in quality, because as more AI content is generated, whether in written form or in art form, AI will start using other AI as sources to get trained. AI can’t fact check itself either, so you could end up with completely nonsensical scenarios like
I've seen AI botch up something as simple as images of fictitious characters and give a female character oversized dollar sign sparkly earrings when all they've ever worn is stud earnings, or vice versa. There's no quality control or screening to see what's going on with incorrect oddball/outlier cases.

They don't care if it doesn't work, they're cramming it in everywhere,
TFW we can't get software that isn't cloud based any more, but we can get bloatware full of unwanted/unneeded AI crap.

Bondi was under orders, no doubt. Trump values loyalty and she did was she told so I don't see her getting axed. Trump, for whatever reason, didn't think that the issue had to be finessed. It would have been very easy to just string everyone along until the end of his term.
 
Just watched the video. As expected, the nigger is just sitting there with the window up demanding a supervisor until they're forced to break his window. These people know exactly what they're doing, they're trying to bait people into flipping out and everyone sees through the strategy now. I have no sympathy for people who do this bullshit, i wish they punched him 50 times.
 
On something relevant, given the Russiagate stuff, Trump has the opportunity to do the funniest thing to Obama.

I expect every single person in this thread to have a burger suit on standby for when the Trump admin brings no charges of treason. Or any felony for that matter.
