This is amazing! Thank you for sharing

I could totally see Tesla reincorporation in Texas and then the board putting another pay package up for a vote out of spite.

joekar1990 ,

He did just have a fund raiser in SF with some billionaire crypto bros…so he may not have

joekar1990 ,

Can we just bring polygamy back then so there can be 3 incomes in a household?

joekar1990 ,

You know… I’d believe Elon is petty enough to actually put something like that in.

joekar1990 ,

Also if it’s crude then it still has to be refined into gasoline. That’s the real bottle neck that causes price ripples if there isn’t enough refinery capacity.

I feel like Elon still uses a magic 8 ball to make decisions.

The inside story of Elon Musk’s mass firings of Tesla Supercharger staff (www.reuters.com)

May 15 (Reuters) - The day before Elon Musk fired virtually all of Tesla’s electric-vehicle charging division last month, they had high hopes as charging chief Rebecca Tinucci went to meet with Musk about the network’s future, four former charging-network staffers told Reuters....

joekar1990 ,

The best is they’ve already brought some members of that team back after his short sighted decision bc bp was starting to swoop in on the supercharger spots. Tesla is also heavily pushing for shareholders votes now to ratify the corporation in Texas and give Elon his massive 56b bonus package back.

It’s like how product placement in movies started off super small. Now sometimes it just fucking smacks you in the face where you think is this movie legitimately just an ad?

Also trump is aligned with Netanyahu and is friends with him. Do they think trump being elected will have Israel have peace with Gaza because it would definitely be the opposite. This is playing out like the Carter/Regan election with the Iran Hostage Crisis in a losing effort for Biden if they don’t figure it out.

Senate Approves Aid for Ukraine and Israel, Sending It to Biden’s Desk (www.nytimes.com)

The Senate voted overwhelmingly on Tuesday night to give final approval to a $95.3 billion package of aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, sending it to President Biden and ending months of uncertainty about whether the United States would continue to back Kyiv in its fight against Russian aggression....

joekar1990 ,

My hunch is Zuck is salivating over divestment and was lobbying for this. However I think bytedance won’t divest since the US market only represents under 5% of the user base.

This is gonna bite Biden in the ass hard with the younger generations if he signs it and then they won’t vote (granted a lot don’t vote anyway). They’ll see it as an out of touch old government trying to silence our voices and give money away for war rather than help people. Will definitely be interesting to see how it unfolds.

joekar1990 ,

I agree I mean how many times in the past couple of years have large sites or services gone down because an update was pushed through. Most recently I can think of teams going down earlier this year.

Should be protocols put into place for cars that need to be followed for a software update.

joekar1990 ,

Or you get a sponsored store result in the first 5 no where near you.

It’s only fast food restaurants that are national chains with more than 60 locations. Locations in Airports, convention centers and hospitals are exempt.

What!?

Of course it should be valued that high!

Totally good indicators of

Kansas Is About to Pass the Most Extreme Age Verification Law Yet (www.404media.co)

An age verification bill in Kansas that is the most extreme in the country has passed both House and Senate and is on its way to the governor’s desk. The bill will make sites with more than 25 percent adult content liable to heavy fines if they don’t verify that visitors are over the age of 18. It also calls being gay...

joekar1990 ,

I mean Reddit has been trending in the direction to remove NSFW content completely from their site. A couple more laws like this would probably give them the ammo needed to say goodbye.

FTC Takes Action Against Tax Prep Company H and R Block For Wiping Consumers’ Data, Deceptively Marketing ‘Free’ Online Filing (www.ftc.gov)

In an administrative complaint, FTC staff alleges that H&R Block’s online tax filing products lead consumers into higher-cost products made for more complicated tax filings, despite many consumers not needing the additional tax forms and schedules offered by those products. In addition, H&R Block fails to clearly explain which...

I’ve been using freetaxusa for online filing and it’s been very easy. IRS is finally rolling out a pilot program in a few states for free federal filing for simple returns this year.

joekar1990 ,

Mfgs also don’t produce as many of the base trims so it limits choice further. Then on top of that the dealers tend to mark cars way up. Cars in general are just way overpriced since COVID started and some mfgs are still claiming supply chain issues so they artificially limit supply further.

Something something job creators….something something trickle down

joekar1990 ,

I think that dude ran last time too couldn’t believe he made it on the ballot.

joekar1990 ,

If you have a standard w2 it is very easy to fill out and most of it is basic math. Intuit has lobbied for years saying it’s complex and convinced people that we need them. The only thing they did was make digital filing a lot easier. The irs should have had their own platform earlier.

joekar1990 ,

Shit am I unfit to be president since I get tired at 8pm too?

joekar1990 ,

Albertsons is the same they have like 14-15 brands they bought out. So these two merging would be a huge market share of grocery stores.

joekar1990 ,

I just switched last year and it worked great. I had like 4 other family members file as well through them without issue.

joekar1990 ,

Really need a new term for just OTA updates with more and more software being rolled out into cars. The title makes it sound way worse than it actually is.

joekar1990 ,

Google really doesn’t know what it wants in general besides more profit. Like the killed by google is impressive.

joekar1990 ,

Absolutely! They’ll be punished with a golden parachute for such terrible PR.

joekar1990 ,

Agreed. They’d also have to be pretty sure they’d make up the deficit from potential sanctions/lost exports. [trendeconomy.com/data/h2?commodity=TOTAL&repo…](20% of their GDP is exports ) with the US, Japan, and Korea making up close to 25% of that.

It’s probably why they are watching Russia so closely and investing in Africa heavily.

What do you use Best Buy/ Big Box Electromics Store for?

What purposes do you use Best Buy/Big Box electronic stores? Do you try items before you buy them in-person or online? Do you shop in-store for products? Are you a purely online shopper?

I also am limited to BB nearby and go for the same reasons you listed.

I also like their price matching and have used it quite a few times although they’ve gotten more strict about Amazon listings.

From Fulton county grand jury

The way student loans are structured you can’t not pay them. Don’t pay your loans and default, we’ll get your wages garnished. You get a tax refund normally, well they’ll take that. Oh you are on government assistance well they’ll cut the amount you get. Want to declare bankruptcy sorry still gotta pay the loan.

It will only be worse for incoming freshmen since the rates will now be between 5.50-8.05% last I saw.

No matter what people who lent money for student loans will get paid unless the whole system changes and judging by those in charge there is a snowflakes chance in hell that happens unfortunately.

I mean the 2023 ESV sport platinum is MSRP 108k and you get 14/16mpg. So I mean if you were already looking at one and you now get 450miles per charge it may be worth it.

Definitely be interesting to see how they do.

Is wells Fargo the worst run of the big banks? The seem to constantly have the worst shit (that’s reported on).

joekar1990 ,

It’s kind of funny to see the GOP trying to get Hunter Biden so bad because it usually means they’ve done something similar. Jared Kushner has probably made a pretty penny off daddy Trump influence deals.

There are going to be so many business classes that will show how not to run a company being over leveraged and have lots of examples from the pandemic.

joekar1990 ,

Military industrial complex is firing on all cylinders. I’m all for the aid to these countries just wish our government did more for the everyday person on top of this.

I would be curious if all these influencers pushing FBA (Fulfilled by Amazon) where they got paid for the original thought because there is so much junk flowing into Amazon now especially people trying to use Amazon’s logistics.

I can’t imagine there is great margin for a product listed on Amazon if half of every sale is given to Amazon for commission.

Rivian as well

He’s probably not really focused on Twitter but focused on using Twitter staff for getting X.com ready so they do a huge rebrand.

joekar1990 ,

Twitter went from like 7000 employees down to 1000. So skeleton crew for sure. There’s also speculation that they didn’t migrate all the data off Google cloud services so they lost a bunch of data as the contract ended June 30th.

As for the X thing no idea his obsession I’d probably guess he thinks he’s like the modern day iron man or professor Xavier for the gifted with x men.

I’ll give credit where credit is due he’s really good at being able to raise capital but in terms of actual business execution he falls flat to me.
