So, Thursday afternoons at Elon’s?

While I have ZERO love for Trump, the largest increase in the National Debt occurred during the Obama Administration - roughly $9.5 Trillion. (yes that would be over 8 years rather than 4, but I’m a numbers guy.) Obama would have some carry over effect from 2008's Housing BS and Trump gets pegged with Covid costs, but

I also know of a car dealer who accepted Bitcoin as payment, but they are assuming the risk in value remaining constant. NewEgg might hold or sell it that same day to assure the value of the good you purchased remains consistent with the value of the Bitcoin offered.

Your statement proves my point, you are liquidating your asset into a widely accepted fiat to make a purchase. You are NOT BUYING with Bitcoin.

Can you use it to buy groceries? How about Amazon taking it for transactions? Nope?

A demand destruction curve based on winter months and continued EV/Hybrid adoption plays a role. Supply isn’t the issue since the US is a net exporter of oil (and OPEC+ lies about the production export numbers, look at Iran’s numbers as well!). CA/WA have stupid levels of taxes on gas, Hawaii is a

Website shows all configurations starting with 16GB but oddly the 16" doesn’t allow for increased RAM... odd?

Really just a list of states where people over-estimate their abilities and grossly inflate 4WD/AWD as a solution to basic physics!

Can’t help but think the $7500 tax incentives might have something to do with this. Sure, built in Georgia but might not have enough sourced in U.S.!

Absolutely agree with using equipment that sounds best to any individual listener. I’m still rocking a pair of JBL’s my folks bought me in 1983 - Sure they’re 3 ft tall and require serious power most digital equipment can’t power without distortion. (I can’t recall the model number off hand nor the Pioneer amp from

Musk sold shares in two tranches, one in April 2022 and the other in August 2022 totaling roughly $15.5B for his portion of the purchase.

I’ve always seen this as a write-down on assets. Everyone knew the value of Twitter/X was never $44B yet they doled out the funds as if it were. If Musk is able to effectively drive the company into insolvency, he loses nothing on the loans given the way they were structured and plenty of people get to offset gains in

1st Gear - Term Limits... 2 for Senate, 3 for House... the age thing gets you sued for discrimination!

Yet they have to remove frequencies or other artifacts from an analog recording depending on the file size or type. CDs are digital but inferior due to compression. Hi-res are better but still have limitations.

That’s the thing about this review, they took a very analog signal and forced it through digital compression and lossy values.

This all started back in 2013 when they were in talks to share tech. Apple then made some strategic acquisitions of talent and some patents that put a stop to any constructive talks.

Even if this ban were to hold, Apple’s revenue wouldn’t see a hit until Q2, possibly? Every retail store not owned by Apple had the Watch and there were no limits on sales. Warehouses full of Watches, already booked as revenue by Apple at Amazon, Best Buy, Costco...

Touchscreens... my complaint is the NAV screen is too damn low for anyone sitting tall in the seat. I’m sure there’s a heads-up option or duplication on the dash screen.

Some of it comes from their domestic market and the shame that comes from offering an inferior product. Those first few models weren’t spectacular and managers paid a price.

Getting those harder societal topics into the public and in a way that is thought provoking and entertaining is the benefit of musicals done correctly.
