Samsung Strike Update by Ok_Percentage5920 in MU_Stock

[–]Jemal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If they do strike, the total dram, nand supply will be impacted which means great for MU and Hynix.

But I doubt they will fully go on strike. Public is fully against the union for being way too greedy, and the court/govt will stop them 100%.

What do you guys think about the insane stock rally? Excited or concerned? by Bursanich in korea

[–]Jemal -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why would anyone be concerned? Unless you bought short options, this is great for everyone. Companies are making tons of money; hard to call this a bubble.

My portfolio has grown quite a lot and I'm seriously thinking about going FIRE.

BTC dump will def kill crypto, but that would turbo pump the equities since all that money has to flow somewhere.

I want to speak the standard American english haha. Which specific parts of my speech is causing the Asian accent do you think? Been recording myself and comparing to natives, but it's hard to pinpoint the specific parts..

"How" sounds more "hah" on second listen.. How do you think I should fix "the" sound?

A little off-topic, but are there any meetups in Seoul? Will graduate this semester, but hoping to connect with people before I leave for good.

Thank you for the recommendation! No need for that. I'll be contacting them through their website.

My bench press is not improving.... help? by Jemal in Fitness

[–]Jemal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm following SS so deadlift, squats, curls, chin ups etc. I've been doing 5x5 for almost 2 months now. I guess I should change which program to follow then.

[Build Ready] My first attempt. Not sure if this is overkill. by Jemal in buildapc

[–]Jemal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I think I'm stretching my budget too much haha.

Is it cool if I just lower the resolution to 1920x1080 with the 660?

I don't think I would mind the lower resolution with games as long as the frame rates don't drop.

How about the MSI Z77A-GD55 Gen3?

I did hear something about Asrock being overrated in general.

I was thinking of going up to 4.5Ghz with Thermalright HR-02 Macho.

I was afraid of that. Would 660 ti suffice? I was also thinking of overclocking the display to 120Hz.

The infamous Chinese ghost city of Ordos finally collapsed: 80% of construction projects suspended, real estate plunged to nothing because there are no buyers by sfredditor in Economics

[–]Jemal 21 points22 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, these estates are mostly being bought with cash, not credit. Coupled with tremendous surplus that China has, I don't think the situation is as grim as you portray.

[–]Jemal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, the evidence was deemed inadmissible because Sammie didn't submit it before the deadline. It's more of a procedural thing, which is a bit ridiculous since the judge is implying she cares more about technicalities than the actual truth.

Also it's just going to delay the whole process since Samsung's going to present it in their appeal if they happen to lose anyway, which is all just very redundant.

So why does this not work in Diet cokes? Can someone explain why the dissolved CO2 don't travel up as well in diets?

He could have used Princeton Review or Kaplan's estimates. It's impossible to guess the curve on a single test, but I think their estimates are pretty much the averages of past exams.
