  That’s why they play a whole different game than us. He isn’t worried about paying back that interest or loan, he’s trying to find a way to make that $2m pay him back 1% or more per interest period. They never have to consider the loan amount, because those interest and payments will be done in 10 years while the profits from that loan will explode into hundreds of millions.

  See? Anyone can do it, it’s honestly really fucking easy to come up with a million dollar idea. The hard part is that first couple million dollars. If you aren’t born with it, you will literally never have access to that type of wealth.

  Whatever this was needs to be re-uploaded

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Users ditch Glassdoor, stunned by site adding real names without consent⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is what happens right before the major money holders abandon ship. There’s no way they don’t know this is business-suicide. I bet they got a big payday from some companies that paid Glassdoor to shoot itself in the face!

  YouTube did it when Google bought them and changed everyone’s unique username to their Google account (real) name

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam now has over 100,000 games listed⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I seriously would have guessed that porn games alone make up over 100,000

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam now has over 100,000 games listed⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is that really it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If I lose $10,000, that’s on me and my own situation. Musk has essentially wasted resources, time, manpower, and the very blood/sweat/tears from who knows how many humans on this planet. We need to eat the rich, not let them drag us down with their own poor decisions

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm Sonic, I hate cops⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And then you might still get arrested for “impeding an investigation” and “failure to comply” even though your constitutional rights allow said non-compliance.

  Then you get fired because you had to sit in jail until the charges are dropped, and suddenly your foodstamps agent audits you so you lose a week of access to food!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨John Romero: Happy 30th birthday, DOOM. [...] Thank you for playing our games, and thank you for keeping DOOM alive, all these many years.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  In their memory, let’s get DOOM to run in the comments

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is a real sign.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder if it is in any way close to the midpoint

  60? I wouldn’t be surprised if Rockstar uses this to start up $/£80 games…

  I miss the old Black Mirror…

  This makes me anxious. Now way will she be able to get all of those eggs off before some burn!

  What the fuck is your problem dude? I asked for some discussion on why a person is shitty, and you go on to be a shitty fucking person to me just for asking you a damn question! Fuck off with your attitude, I just wanted to know what was so wrong with some famous prick I don’t know about.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk Allegedly Sent ‘Scorched-Earth Letter’ to Warner Bros. Demanding to Keep Amber Heard in ‘Aquaman 2’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And you’re willfully dodging the question

  Any way to view the article without signing up?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Exorcist: Believer’ Gets Horrifying Reviews After Studio Gambled $400 Million for Rights⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That really is a pretty big gamble. At $400m, they’re competing with some big name releases that made $500m

  And I’m sure they’ll want more than just 100 in the green

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US authorities ask locals for help in finding missing F-35 jet — Authorities say they are searching for the $80m jet around two lakes in the state of South Carolina⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If I find it, can I fly it back to base?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lets talk about physics of the speed of spaceship⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The ships essentially have fully enabled flight assist. So when you let go of the throttle, there are forward thrusters that immediately start to cancel your velocity. In real life, this is pretty pointless since speed is relative, but you could at least set your reference frame to your target planet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Hypothetical] What would have happened if the US Supreme Court had arbitrarily declared Donald J. Trump the winner of the 2020 US Presidential Election? Constitutional Crisis?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The Supreme Court decided on whether or not to recount in Florida. They didn’t directly choose the winning candidate

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, and it makes me just as annoyed as it seemingly does you. It’s just the same regular “number 3 combo” with a pic of the celebrity next to it.

  At least the Grimace event had purple milkshakes, that’s different!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should there be an "ALL OFF" button to instantly shut down all these new AI Defense bots that the Military in the US want to build and deploy in the thousands?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Most military networks are closed circuit by design. I’m not sure how this could be implemented without also allowing back doors to be exploited. You wouldn’t want someone to be able to turn off your defenses as they begin an attack, for example.

  Everything is physics if you’re vague enough!

  There’s a reason they are ran on local analog switches!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Watching TV shows or movies that display Russia as a military superpower is almost surreal nowadays.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The remake was originally going to feature a Chinese invasion, but they wanted it to still release and sell in China, so they made it North Korea instead.

  It never did release in China.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wireless Shower Head⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh yeah, I’m aware :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wireless Shower Head⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  As others have mentioned, pure hydrogen and pure oxygen are both quite flammable. It would be very expensive to extract/filter only the oxygen out of the air while staying portable, but I think we may need to go for a tank-storage design anyways.

  I think you’re better off using hydrogen peroxide from a tank (maybe even a backpack?) and breaking that down into water and oxygen (o2)

  I always see jokes about the Dead Internet Theory, but it’s seriously true. The only question is what percentage of the internet is still human-content?
