  1. Hey wasn't MSTR a darling stonk because of their crypto purchases? https://www.investors.com/news/mstr-stock-strategy-bitcoin-price-21-billion-buying-binge/ Buying $17B of assets for $21B seems like bad business but I'm just a tech guy
  2. Well he wasn't charged with anything and the university didn't even officially claim he broke their rules of conduct The current reporting that I can find (unless you can find something else to refute it) is that he was pointed out to senators Cruz and Fetterman by Jewish student groups, and then ICE arrested him (I found the link from his wiki page) https://forward.com/news/703018/mahmoud-khalil-columbia-cuad-ice/
  3. punched through $80k where it bounced off before
  4. That's one of his (trans) (estranged) children
  5. The specifics listed in the article state that he was actually granted his green card AFTER the protests that you are claiming (and being repped in support lulz) were unlawful or "went too far with it". If he had broken any laws, do you think he would have still been granted a green card? His school claimed that he had allegations of misconduct and withheld his academic records. When his lawyers asked "no but really", suddenly there was no issue. This is simply silencing speech that you don't care to hear. I certainly know that many of the surly community delight in crushing free speech and are delighted at what is yet to come.
  6. @Hate this is our concern dude. This is why we can't just ignore the ugliness of what's going on around us and bury our heads in the sand.
  7. Dancing on the $80k floor again, definitely getting tested with every other floor this week/month/year/term
  8. What are you talking about? We will no longer have bad economic numbers or bad jobs reports! Wulaws rejoice! https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-administration-disbands-two-expert-panels-economic-data-2025-03-05/
  9. Yikes, student protesters are starting to get their visas and green cards revoked. So much for free speech
  10. That came across my feed and I had to turn it off after about 5 minutes - he was just repeating "shit" over and over and over
  11. @immamac does purgatory not work anymore? Or is CR just an unmoderated board now where trolls are welcome? How is this sock posting at -400 rep? Has BL finally gone rogue?? /s
  12. That sucks. Definitely need some "I bought this before we knew" stickers
  13. Soon folks will start to awake to the smoke in the burning building that is our democracy. Wake up, and smell the ashes. It's fucking MADDENING for shit to be going down pretty much exactly as outlined and dismissed as """TDS""" back in 2021. Trump is dead ass following the typical fascist playbook. Failed coup ineffectual punishment fascists regroup and restoke their grievances gain populist support with those grievances seize power Timeline wise we feel around 1935 or so.
  14. There's an incredibly incestuous relationship between executives and BOD's. They often are peers on other BOD's or have interests in each other's business. Why are executives pushing people back into offices? Because they and their boards have commercial real estate holdings they don't want to tank. If a CEO does something stupid or evil but they have leverage or enough control of a board members interests, they're bulletproof. Figuratively at least lol.
  15. Brian Cranston made a movie about this exact thing, "Jerry and Marge go large" in 2022
  16. oh, go find some nazis in Ukraine you fuckin putinist

    SpaceX

    Scott manley has a good recap video of the launch and repeat Starship performance Pretty cool that GOES-18 and GOES-16 caught the launch and we can see the footage too
  18. Not a site error, but a feature request: Is there a way that youtube video embeds can be a reasonable size and not fill the whole screen? They used to be a smaller size, and it seems like they embed nearly fullscreen. Or if that's just a weird thing on my machine that'd be good to know too
  19. Man, the Lumon Management Program videos have been great extra flavor and there's great "Lumon is Listening" videos selling severance moved videos into spoiler tags so they don't explode the webpage
  20. NASA is gonna get its budget slashed https://arstechnica.com/space/2025/03/white-house-may-seek-to-slash-nasas-science-budget-by-50-percent/ RIP to any long term missions or projects
  21. Wow that's some real stupid shit. "I have billions of dollars! I can't be stupid!"
  22. But the Dems just aren't marketing well enough right @Bozo_Casanova? Totally not just pure unhinged id and hatred.
  23. Tates disciples are really being the change they want to see in the world https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/mar/06/kyle-clifford-watched-andrew-tate-videos-before-triple
  24. He's just doing the empty suit move where a new CEO comes in and makes a bunch of changes to put his stamp on things. Good or bad move doesn't matter - he has to be doing things to feel important. Just, most empty suits don't command the most powerful fighting force in human history
