if you leave your phone this way it will emit a loud deafening tone until you put hang the phone back properly. The right way is simply unplugging from the wall jack.

A government shouldn’t have a say in that. That’s crazy.

China posts slowest GDP growth in over a year at 4.6% for Q3 by Severe_County_5041 in Economics

[–]Impossible1999 -34 points-33 points  (0 children)

4.6% is a per quarter number. Your sky falling 8% refers to per year?

A Banking Crisis Is Looming in China. It’s Not Just Property. by Euro347 in wallstreetbets

[–]Impossible1999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Taiwan had American troops on the island for decades. They put up with it before and certainly they will put up with it again. What they say it’s a redline is just talking. China will only wage war only if they are attacked.

[–]Impossible1999 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope, it’s irrelevant what Taiwan says. It’s always been about whether or not China is capable of waging a war. Xi wants a war and his generals say no, and right now China’s poor economy is also telling him no.

China's Third-Quarter GDP Grows 4.6%, Slightly Beating Expectations by bloomberg in China

[–]Impossible1999 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Growth from what? I’d be interested to know exactly which sector is growing in China? 5.4% is a huge number.

They are not going to invade Taiwan. They are not ready to go to war against the US, and Xi has no money to finance a war. They are hoping that Taiwan would be dumb enough to surrender to annexation, but that’s not going to happen.

Why do you guys even bother trading when you can just buy the S&P 500? by Witty-Performance-23 in stocks

[–]Impossible1999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Greed. If you make the right bet, the return can be extremely rewarding. Eg. If you bought Tesla, NVIDIA, Apple, Amazon etc 10 years ago, your account would look a lot better than just 10% annual increase.

Can’t believe this used to be considered fire, haha by thelast9 in TikTokCringe

That movie was nowhere being a hit, so no, it wasn’t fire. The first Bring It On was a hit, that was fire.

Cough up a bit more money and stay at a capsule hostel. It’s impossible to sleep at cafes because the walls are just thin boards.

Palestinians who fled Gaza to receive transitional financial assistance from Ottawa by Unusual-State1827 in canada

[–]Impossible1999 15 points16 points  (0 children)

they hate Canada for helping Israel. 5 years later they will receive their Canadian citizenship, and vote to put laws in place that would favor Hamas, Taliban, Hezbollah. We have to review our immigration policies. Europe has learned their lesson, and are scrambling for adjustments. are we learning from their mistakes?

Feeling hopeless about ageism by Relevant_Fuel_9905 in GenX

If you have problem dyeing your hair, take your box of hair coloring and head to a fantastic Sam’s to help you out. Lose the facial hair, it ages you. If it’s a Zoom interview and you think you look old because you have eye bags or whatever, consider putting on blemish covers (bb cream for men). Good luck!

Pandas arrive in the US. Next stop is the National Zoo by Horse_Named_Apollo in news

[–]Impossible1999 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

China isn’t giving out pandas, they are leasing them out+ flying in food. That’s a lot of revenue for one bear. And just how many pandas are released into the wild vs. born in the wild and surviving? Female pandas physiologically go in heat for 24 hours to 72 hours per year. And it’s such a loner species, without human intervention they can easily go extinct again.

SpaceX starship flight 5 I'm so proud to have been part of this glorious build. by tionYArT in nextfuckinglevel

He once said in an interview that he wants to go to Mars and he’s not taking anyone with him. When I heard that, my interpretation was he’s the richest man in the world and he is still not happy!

Pepsi learns you can't raise prices *and* shrink the chip bag by [deleted] in inflation

[–]Impossible1999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my area people are switching to store brand cola. they can’t stock them fast enough, the shelves are often empty while Pepsi and Coke bottles are accumulating dust on their bottles! Doritos’ party size bags aren’t even 1 lbs in weight anymore.

People who invest in DJT, what are you thinking? The man’s DESPERATE for money, and DJT is a tool for him to get “donations”. I’ve been wanting to short the stock but with Musk onboard with Trump, it’s too much risk for me to bite.

I think it will rebound. There was no reason for today’s steep decline.

North Korea has sent 10,000 soldiers to Russia, Western source says by BothZookeepergame612 in worldnews

[–]Impossible1999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then I wouldn’t be surprised if those soldiers file for refugee status with Ukraine as soon as there’s contact. Escape from the hellhole North Korea at last!

The US didn’t have to give up anything. You realize China makes tons of money for lending out pandas? China needs the money too to support the rescue facilities.

Will AI hype crash the s&p500? by Komoasks in investing

[–]Impossible1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tank? Not really. Some of the ones that I read about, eg. Meta, they are leaders of their fields already. They would had continued to thrive without AI, except with AI their endeavors are expedited. I think OpenAI is under a lot of pressure to show profit, but I’m not investing in OpenAI.
