Again? We all know this is pointless, grand standing. They would have to get enough republicans on board, and that just isn't going to happen. It is pretty fully the party of Trump now.

To be fair, it was incredibly overvalued. Its value was driven by one of the most successful conmen of all time. I just can't figure out if Trump or Musk is the most successful conman of all time. One has the most wealth in the world, one has the most power.

You don't even need to do that. Just use regular index funds and shift the percentage of your total investments to be more and more bond heavy as you get closer to retirement. Avoid those fees that those target funds have.

Golden parachutes and not a single banker went to jail.

I mean, you can witness his demise if you take the right actions. Luigi made his dream come true, I believe you can too.

Somebody the other day asked what the point of the immutable desktops are. Well, ostree can do this. Granted, you have to stay within the ostree ecosystem. However, you can rebase from one ostree distro to another.

Giving everyone free healthcare would not take away their free healthcare. That logic does not follow. The rest is accurate.

SUSE Micro uses btrfs + snapper to make read-only snapshots for it to be immutable. So, yes it's very nearly the same.

After Civil War II at this rate.

I honestly don't pay enough attention to him to know. If he runs in 2028, we'll find out.

Well, gross because he's not even close to that guy. He was one of the candidates who was against Medicare for all. That's like step 1, the most fundamental thing to be progressive in this day and age.

We need the next FDR.

It's literally against the UCMJ to take part in political action as a uniformed member of the military. To me it sounds like she was trying to "cya" and of course, this administration has such thin skin that they couldn't have someone do that.

Ironically, that's part of the reason DOGE even exists. They do the same job, but congress has almost always ignored the GAO. The difference is that the GAO actually puts in the work and puts out good reports instead of just wrecking things.

Oh, he definitely won't see any consequences. He just made rich people richer. The rich only see consequences when they take money from other rich people.

Shorting is a legit thing though. There isn't another phrase for a clearly illegal version?

I was wondering if that's what he was doing. Is there a word for the reverse of a pump and dump? It seemed almost too obvious.

I fully expect him to try to change something, pull some underhanded thing like the VP switcheroo, or even try another insurrection (why not, he wasn't punished for the last one? ) but as of right now he can't run again.

That would be a natural cause. An elderly man dying of a heart attack is pretty natural.

Unless something changes, he can't run again.
