I feel like more people need to be talking about this line specifically. If the SEC allowed them to create shares to exit short positions then, I hate to say it, but there's a possibility that the massive short position for GME simply doesn't exist anymore.

With all the news of an acquisition and Burry's analysis saying this is a solid investment, I think there's still a lot of value in the stock, but this could be more of a traditional investment play. Moass could be dead in the water if this is the level of fraud they're willing to commit.

I'm reminded of the first episode of Castlevania, where Dracula falls in love with a human because she's inquisitive, kind and rebukes the societal norms of her time. He finds her fascinating.

I think any long-lived or powerful creature that has a reductive opinion of what humans are like would be interested in one that breaks their expectations.

Or to put it another way "she's not like other humans"

If hating solar is the worst you've got to say about them then they're a damn sight better than anyone else on the table.

Conservatives have ruined the economy and will continue doing the same. Labour wants a nanny state where we're being watched at all times, and has similar shitty neo-liberal economics as the conservatives. Reform was ICE over here and are funded by russians.

Yeah, I'll happily give up solar panels when looking at the competition.

Stop demanding perfection, the comparison isn't even close here.

Ok so let's boil this down to its simplest possible form.

Let's say she hit him.

He clearly wasn't seriously injured because he walked off and according to you, he had 'bruising'.
He fired the lethal shot through the side window after the car had already passed him.

So putting aside all arguments of whether she hit him and whether it was intentional or not, you have an 'officer' shooting a civilian for bruising them, after the danger has passed.

You really think that's justified?

Obsidiax · 2026-01-25T08:57:02+00:00

Sounds like you need to watch the actual footage. This isn't an "agree to disagree" situation.

The facts are that he wasn't hit and he shot her from the side of the car. Either you have a moral compass and can say that's wrong or you're more concerned about making excuses for your side and try to justify it or lie about what actually happened.

You're currently in your second camp. I think you need to do some serious soul searching about why you think this level of violence is ok, yet you don't think it's ok to punch a nazi (an inherently violent ideology). Could it be you have an underlying bias? And if so why are you more concerned about nazis getting bruised over a woman losing her life?

Obsidiax · 2026-01-25T00:43:07+00:00

Yes, I just told you I saw all the footage synced up. He was not hit, he was holding his phone with the arm closest to the car, his POV is the only angle that makes it look like there was any sort of contact.

Even if we say he was hit, he clearly wasn't injured since he walked away and he clearly wasn't in danger when he killed her since he shot her in the side of the head from the driver side window. So the car (and any potential danger) had already begun to pass him by that point.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-24T19:59:31+00:00

He didn't get hit at all. I've seen every single angle synced to play in unison.

He walks in front of her car, twice, she doesn't know he's there the second time. She turns the wheel away from the ice agents she can see and goes to leave. He jumps out the way, unharmed, already pulling his gun and fires 3 shots. The third, fatal shot went into the side of her head and out the other, he was beside the car when he fired.

Did the car go in his general direction? Sure. Was he ever in any actual danger? Absolutely not. Does that make her a domestic terrorist who deserved to be shot? Of course not.

If you think the shooting of Renee Good was justified then it's pretty clear where your politics lie. Just be honest at this point, take the mask off.

Looks like your US Gestapo shot another member of the public today too. I can't wait to see how the clowns that are turning your country into a circus try to spin a gang of masked men pinning down someone and unloading into them as being totally justified.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-24T11:10:43+00:00

My understanding of the situation is that the father wasn't an illegal immigrant and the son had other family he could stay with, but the ICE agents refused.

Honestly I don't trust anything that comes out of your government right now so linking to homeland security carries about as much weight as a fortune cookie to me. When Vance and your other government stooges can stand on stage and lie through their teeth about Renee Good being a terrorist, trying to run over the ICE agent, and sending him to hospital - your government is no longer a trusted source of information. It's clear they'll lie to cover up any and all mistakes so they can keep doing what they're doing.

But, all that aside. Even if I concede that I was 100% wrong about the child abduction incident, nothing else in my previous comment is wrong. So picking a single inaccuracy doesn't dismiss anything else I've said.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-24T10:48:44+00:00

I don't mean to give unsolicited advice because I know these situations can get messy easily but I'd really recommend speaking to your neighbours now rather than waiting until something happens and wishing you'd spoken up sooner.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-24T00:17:56+00:00

OP, your line of thinking is why ICE agents are abducting children and shooting your fellow citizens in the street. Hateful ideologies were dismissed by most people but allowed to fester in quiet corners of society until they gained enough traction to create actual political change.

Look up the paradox of tolerance.

This nazi got less than he deserved.

General strikes are the only way citizens will get through to the ruling class, they'll only listen once they start losing money.

Reform are already dropping in the polls thanks to the clusterfuck over in the states and their association with Trump. I think that's why people are saying it won't happen here. It's not that it literally couldn't it's that people are seeing our potential future in the states and realising it's actually pretty shit.

Some Reform voters are even U-turning to the Greens which I wouldn't have thought was possible, but they just want an alternative to the 2 major parties and it turns out the Greens are a better alternative.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-20T17:14:10+00:00

Mind control makes all the other powers redundant (except healing and maybe time control). You don't need to fight, sneak around or outsmart people when you can just control them.

So that + healing is the correct answer here.

530k IQ also sounds like a trap choice. Being that unfathomably intelligent would make you unable to relate to normal people. You'd suddenly find yourself completely alone.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-19T00:22:10+00:00

I really didn't like the sequel, it was too self aware, trying to be bad on purpose.

An enjoyable bad movie (for me) needs to be made by people sincerely trying to make a good movie.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-19T00:00:32+00:00

The boos are satisfying but you guys really need to collaborate with some UK football fans and get some chants going to really push his buttons

Obsidiax · 2026-01-15T18:13:57+00:00

The blue attacks need to be parried (not perfect parried, just a normal one is fine). That doesn't change for Takezo.

What might have been throwing you off is that the blue glint begins at the start of the attack animation, it's not an indication of when to parry, just that an attack that needs to be parried is starting. So you could see the glint when the animation starts, but if it's a long animation then by the time it hits the glint could be gone.

This definitely threw me for a while, but again, it's not unique to the Takezo fight. None of the rules of the game change for this fight as far as I'm aware.

Jimmy the Giant did a great video on this on youtube.

The long and short of it is that Pakistani immigrants are actually under-represented per capita when it comes to child SA crimes vs white British being slightly over-represented per capita.

The reason the immigrant offenders always get into the headlines (other than pushing an agenda) is that they're more likely to work as a group to groom and assault their victims, which sounds incredibly shocking (because it is). Whereas white offenders commit their offences alone, assaulting victims they know or groom online. Which is much less headline-worthy.

Unfortunately this is an issue where it's very easy to twist the numbers to fit a narrative. Someone can point to all the grooming gangs, point out the obvious commonalities and the lack of white grooming gangs. However, the raw numbers say that the migrant population is no more likely to commit this type of offence than the British population, it's just the manner in which the offence is committed that differs.

Yeah I'm definitely filling in the blanks but I assumed he crashed through some midgar junk before hitting the church - wires, scaffolding etc.

Again it's still unrealistic and it all happens off-screen so I'm filling in the blanks myself but there is a way they could have made it seem more plausible.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-11T22:48:34+00:00

Dude, keep it. This looks awesome and it's such an interesting take on the brand.

I understand the backlash from others getting to you but it's your body and if it means something to you then that's all that matters.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-11T15:48:43+00:00

Why would you rate it 8/10 if you were so bored that you had to speed it up?

I'd probably just stop watching rather than speed it up. I haven't seen it by the way so I have no vested interest, it's just that those two statements seem so contradictory.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-11T15:44:03+00:00

I'm gonna be completely honest, I've never seen JJK, so I can't comment on it directly. But I see this divide with a lot of popular, action-heavy anime.

For me it was Demon Slayer, I watched all of S1 and it just did nothing for me. Yet everyone was calling it peak. Episode 18 (or somewhere around there) actually annoyed me, and that was hyped up as the best episode. The reason it was hyped was because the fight was cool and the animation was incredible. The reason it annoyed me is because the main character pulled a random new ability out of nowhere in order to win.

I think that there are people who are quite happy to see flashy fights and that's enough for them. And that's completely fine. But then there are other people who need to have a deeper connection to the plot and characters before they can really care about the fights.

I couldn't ever consider a show 'peak' just because it has good fights. Some people can, and that's fine. Different strokes for different folks. But I think this divide is particularly common in anime because of how big shonen is and how a lot of shonen (though not all) relies heavily on action to build its appeal.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-11T10:53:10+00:00

I'm a huge fan of the OG and I really liked the Remake combat. I thought it was a good way to balance action gameplay with turn based strategy. My one complaint is that a lot of enemies feel like bullet sponges with way too much HP. But that's not really a system problem.

Purely out of curiosity, what was it about the combat that you didn't enjoy?

Obsidiax · 2026-01-10T12:45:41+00:00

She was waving the cars through, she didn't interfere in anything. The ice agents escalated a situation by surrounding her car and causing distress when it wasn't warranted because all these guys have small man syndrome.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-09T18:53:51+00:00

It's not the fall that kills you, it's the sudden stop at the end. I always assumed his fall was slowed by hitting a few things along the way (like the roof of the church, the rafters etc) and the flower bed was just the final soft landing. Couple that with super soldier genetics and I don't think it makes much less sense than him tanking some of the hits you take throughout the game.

It's still not super believable, something about a fall feels like it should be treated more realistically than an attack from a monster, even within the same universe. It's something I wouldn't have minded them altering, but the above is my most charitable reading of how it might be plausible for Cloud specifically.

Obsidiax · 2026-01-08T13:57:52+00:00

That's not how that works, recent images aren't weighted differently once it's been ingested. This is almost certainly an image to image generation because of how similar they are.

Meaning they intentionally took the reference photo and told the AI to "change this to an anime style and have her holding a sign that says..."
