Wrelcome to what the few of us paying attention have been trying to shout at everyone else for a quarter century.

So real talk, and of course I'm not going to toss my life savings (ha hahahahaha ha cries in american) into it but: how advisable is short selling Tesla right now and is there a reasonably "safe" way to do it? I know it always involves risk, especially in the event of a margin call, but for someone who is only slightly versed in these matter: how advisable would such a move be?

Is it possible or likely for a reverse-Gamestop ploy to take place?

Chin up, you're both more well versed this arcanery than I.

Spoiler alert: it will only reveal that the US no longer honors extradition treaties.

Another key search from the same events is "Brooks Brothers Riot".

Oh I love parties! I'll bring the glowsticks!

I recently made the switch from Windows to Linux on my gaming desktop and it's been a nearly flawless transition. I've been running Pop_OS without problems. If you have an AMD video card you might want to check Bazzite for a gaming oriented Linux distro. Any distro should allow you to use a different desktop, so which GUI to use is up to you. KDE Plasma has a lot of skins to choose from and is a pretty easy transition from Windows. You don't even have to stick with a single desktop environment. I currently choose between the default Pop_OS or Plasma depending on my mood or use case.

Editing to add the 50501 bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/50501movement.bsky.social

50501 was the first time there have been simultaneous protests in every state capital in the US, ever. There were more than 100 people on the capital steps in my backwater state of Missouri.

Could we do better? Hell yes, but to say we're not doing anything is disingenuous when major media outlets are owned by opponents of the protests and therefore under-reporting, obfuscating, omitting or lying about protests happening.

I'm looking into alternatives. So far Kodi is the front runner for my use. I have not decided on whether to replace roku units with raspberri pi running kodi or try the jailbreaking roku route.

I chose it for the clever URL not knowing much when I first came to lemmy. Happy circumstance that it ended up being a solid choice. :)

Cheers to the mods and admins for making this a great place.

Which depends entirely on who you brought home last night.

"People's History of the United States" and "Lies My Teacher Told Me" were eye opening to the omissions from my primary education. "Trail of Tears" should be required reading.

So much out in the open. What is your breaking point? At what point do we take to the streets over this?

Instructions not clear. Posted upvotes.

He's trying to flip voters that are being ignored by their republican representatives and doing it very visibly to show he is listening to voters. It's called strategy. He has his prpgressive bona fides from his record as governor. Unless you think free school lunch, abortion rights, and trans refuge status aren't progressive achievements.

Get the fuck out of here with your harmful purity test bullshit. Divisiveness like that is why the left hasn't had a cohesive successful resistance to the lock step solidarity of the GOP.

You're either shilling for them or need to understand that Democrats and Republocans aren't the problem, the Lazy Rich who want to take more money for less work are the problem.

Good job letting perfect get in the way of progress.

Tim Walz is a progressive but because he's not calling for guillotines out of the gate you're dismissing his credentials and record.

Stop helping the enemy divide us.

I know it's futile but I'm still calling Josh Hallway. Anyone know a good robodialer service?
