That’s the point of the post.

That’s the point of the post. I wish I knew how to make money from the knowledge that this is the high point and it will crash in the future. Someone out there is making that money.

I don’t. I thought that was the point if futures options. You are betting on the price going down. It’s a good thing my broker doesn’t let me trade them I guess.

Electrinic intifada:

From Wikipedia:

There is consensus that The Electronic Intifada is generally unreliable with respect to its reputation for accuracy, fact-checking, and error-correction. Almost all editors consider The Electronic Intifada a biased and opinionated source, so their statements should be attributed.

Mondoweis:

“Mondoweiss” is a hate site (UPDATED) from the Washington Post.

Oh absolutely! But we will never know if it was motivated by racism, political or religious extremism, etc.

“Dissatisfied about his divorce” reeks of state media censorship. We’ll probably never know his real motivation.

Very cool! It’s a pretty specialized use case, but still awesome to see.

According to fellow historians:

At best, Ilan Pappe must be one of the world’s sloppiest historians; at worst, one of the most dishonest. In truth, he probably merits a place somewhere between the two.

Good, he will show that it’s possible to have basic civility between people.

Outlook enshittification is why I switched to Thunderbird over a year ago. It’s just gotten consistently better. Highly recommended.

Is that still working?

Black and white film remained popular for decades after color film because it had different properties and could be easier to work with. Some photographers also preferred the aesthetic. Before digital photography became as good as film, B&W continued to be used in professional photography.

That also means, if Anne Frank and MLK, were alive today, they would only be in their 90s.

Yeah - Amazing. I was thinking - “no way… I have to check this out.” Yep. It appears to be not only plausible but a that happens with some frequency.

Username checks out

It’s a little bit naive and self destructive that human beings have created tools as powerful as mainstream social media with absolutely no checks or balances, absolutely no accountability, absolutely no transparency, and entirely at the whims of billionaire owners and nation states they’re in bed with.

Regulating and banning social media that is being used to blatantly conduct massive psyops should be uncontroversial.

Let’s get two things clear. First, aiming to draw moderate Republicans from the most dominant primary candidate in history was always a failing strategy. Second, splitting the party, protesting the only viable candidate, driving out the incumbent, and demoralizing the Left is what lost this one.

People need to rethink their priorities if you spent the entire election year criticizing the better party and candidate.
