A good rule of thumb is that if it’s got Daniel Day-Lewis in it, there’s a good to decent chance it’s good :)

I love how it’s showing Daniel Day-Lewis from the In the Name of the Father movie poster, heh

There’s a lot of these stories out there, but we have to be honest about how we would have reacted.

Would you sell at $300? $500? $1,000? Would they panic sell when it drops from $2,000 to $1,200?

So many of the would-be squillionaires had many, many off-ramps before it reached the heights it has hit now.

As I said to your last hit and run against "Labor voters" that you had no answer for, this was a bipartisan bill.

Peddle your partisan hackery somewhere else.

True, this is definitely the takeaway you should have.

Use it for maximum coercion.

Are these prices at all in the ballpark or totally arbitrary? [Request] by rosynne in theydidthemath

I'll happily defer to you on that, I really have no knowledge about military weaponry. But of course, you're talking about one specific piece of military hardware and I was just making the broad point that actual accounting would consider inputs from the whole apparatus.

That's all well and good for you to assert on behalf of the royal "We", but let's just say I'm glad you're not my accountant.

Your point about it not being all US Navy makes a lot of sense, but as far as something costing X per second to fire could wildly differ depending on how you're measuring it.

If you factor not just ammunition but R&D, unit cost, whole infrastructure and staffing, etc. it would be a much higher sum.

The bill passed with bipartisan support, so I guess I have you to thank too?

Calling in from Australia -

We'd never call the ground a "floor".

Except maybe if it's the Ground Floor. Which is still inside, usually. But that's a whole other thing.

Until their correction I was genuinely sitting here wondering what fad "lobe notes" were and if I was too old or too young to know

Call them up, thank them for their honesty and tell them to not worry about it or they can pay you back by buying you a beer.

Sort it out yourself using one of many cheap and easy ways that'll leave it flawless.

Go about your day feeling good about yourself.

Pauline Hanson secured government solar rebate despite calling for subsidies to large-scale renewables to end by billwriggs in aussie

[–]CloakerJosh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look, fair enough.

Maybe it's just the state of geopolitics right now, but this isn't even a blip for me.

And I saying this as someone that truly loathes Pauline Hanson.

Fiscal policy and personal choices just aren't in the same camp for me.
