Close enough, yes.

I believe bystanders got some vid too.
I’ve always felt it was a matter of how much you were learning or experiencing new things. When you’re very young, literally every second is streaming information into your brain that you’ve never seen, touched, tasted, done…etc.
Once we get life’s patterns down, once we learn what motions we need to go through to ensure our own survival, we also find them banal and literally start blanking them out of our minds while we think of other things, dream of that next new experience that may now be months or even years coming.
What we all miss is that those very motions are our lives. Every one of those seconds we just grind through is time. You wake up at the next experience you’ve been waiting for, smile wide, and then realize you’re 5 years older.
If you want to slow down time, actively seek out new things to do, no matter how small. Sounds easy, doesn’t it? It isn’t.
Edit to say I’ve often thought about what it will be like when death is imminent. You know, people say you’ll never wish you worked harder on your deathbed? But I tell you what, I ‘may’ wish for some of those long weeks of ‘wishing my life would speed up just because I’m stuck at the office’ back.
Kinda makes every moment feel sweet for awhile, appreciating it, at least until you fall back into the old pattern.
Back in 1988 I had a school project with a few people, one of whom came from a wealthy family. The project was regarding the stock market, and each team was given a certain amount of imaginary money to invest, to see who would win out at the end of the semester. My friend with the wealthy family came back with a recommendation from his father, of course, and we won the contest easily.
The recommendation? Put all our funds into Berkshire Hathaway.
I had the golden goose egg right in front of me and never invested a dime.
I don’t think this post said anything about ‘The Game’ backfiring.
It specifically calls out that streamers spoke about exactly what they didn’t want spoken. That’s what the Streisand Effect is.
Congratulations to Game Science for a good game, but it’s business as usual for the C-Suite being completely disconnected to how the social world works.
I dunno… ‘safe’ doesn’t mean good, and in Hollywood can often be the opposite. That being said, I agree with the rest.
I absolutely love my fusion hybrid. Hoping it lasts 20 years
I swear I lmao when I first heard they were getting rid of so many cars. It was so obvious they were cutting their own throat.
There’s two types of oil, essentially and I don’t remember what they are called. When oil was easy to get we built refineries for that kind. When it got scarce you could only get the other kind.
The US in its infinite wisdom decided it was too expensive to build refineries for the new kind, so what we’ve been doing is sending the oil we pump to other countries who can refine it, then import the kind we can refine.
Why do you think he strongarmed Teslas shareholders into that big pay day? He’s known this was coming, y’all. Tesla’s just paying for his misadventure.
This is exactly how the bridge on a piece of property I used to live on was built. It lasted 20 years but eventually washed out, while I was there, ofc.
20 years ain’t bad.
Cisco used to be an innovator. Now they can’t even read the room and see how many companies are falling flat on their face from this decision.
Wow Cisco. Wow.
I liked the latest D&D movie a lot, but I guess that doesn’t technically count.
I think this article might be looking at this wrong. Corporations play all kinds of shell games with organizations and lawyers and there are plenty of examples where corps duck responsibility by dissolving or sometimes even reorganizing these organizations.
Just because GARM has dissolved doesn’t mean this kind of movement is over… like at all. The article itself states several similar lawsuits that failed.
My father says the same thing about the slim margin of oil companies. That being said, when that slim margin is in the billions and millions of people suffer for it, there’s room for inquiry.
I don’t think it’s just about random wrong internet person. Anyone saying something other than ‘it’s nothing’ was borderline ridiculed.
Sooo… is Meta going to scrub all that information from their system or did Texas just basically ‘sell’ our info to them for 1.4 billion?
I can’t really describe to you how angry I was when that shit went through. Like… I knew it was ridiculous to get so angry but, I LOVED THAT FREAKING APP.
Molon Labe!
