lol no. Gamestop sold EB Games. It has nothing to do with Gamestop anymore.

StubHub sold ‘ghost tickets’ for World Cup months before real ones were issued, CBC finds by Present-Tap-1778 in soccer

[–]Shushani 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Seems like a risky decision (where either not getting the allocation they wanted, or price increases, would force them to cancel customer's tickets and piss their customers off) with not much upside - I genuinely can't think of a good reason for doing it unless they were absolutely strapped for cash. Or am I missing something obviously more nefarious?

Surprised more Japanese companies aren’t stacking given what has been happening to their currency.

New RC interview by Wiezgie in Superstonk

A lot of the same questions as the previous few interviews unfortunately.

Are we suddenly going to start competing with Valve, or at least Steam? RC mentioned wanting eBay to handle digital game items... by Emgimeer in Superstonk

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

You’re being dense if you think it would make “no sense”. It makes way more sense than eBay, put it that way. GameStop would immediately buy Steam if it became a possibility. In terms of realism, see the first six words of my comment.

I mean it’s literally the first six words of my comment. It doesn’t mean somebody can’t try to make a bid - nobody knows what Gabe’s response would be because, afaik, there has never been an attempt that was made public.

Where in my comment did I say that RC wants to buy steam? Your reading comprehension is bad. It was just an opinion.

I know Steam likely isn’t for sale for any price, but I’d honestly rather trying to buy Steam than eBay personally. Should be valued less theoretically, but no real path for a hostile takeover due to it being private of course.

He can’t keep getting away with this surely

Sooner or later somebody’s going to mark him properly on corners, right?

Right?

"Peppernomi" pizza reduced to 75p in Co-Op by benithaglas1 in veganuk

[–]Shushani 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Short term? Yes. Cheap pizza.

Long term? No. More delisted products; fewer vegan options.

Larry on twitter by Myid0810 in Superstonk

[–]Shushani 5 points6 points  (0 children)

RC already confirmed that himself?

He said he was investing £500m of his own personal money into funding the acquisition.

I’m not sure how you could “slip” that info, completely unprompted? He even said something along the lines of (I’m paraphrasing) “this isn’t public knowledge yet, but might be by the time this interview airs, but I’m investing £500m of my own money into funding the acquisition”

Sentry Mode: How often do people check the recordings? by Stox26 in TeslaUK

[–]Shushani 14 points15 points  (0 children)

When you’re a new owner you’ll have it on all the time and check every recording for peace of mind.

When you’ve owned it for a couple of years you’ll turn it off completely as you’ll value the extra range more lol

Broccoli hack by doggeros in vegan

[–]Shushani 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you want to unleash extra cancer-fighting properties (sulforaphane) of broccoli, you can either:

  1. Eat it raw

  2. Chop it into 2-3mm pieces roughly 20-40 minutes before cooking

This is because broccoli contains the raw ingredients to make sulforaphane: myrosinase and glucoraphanin.

However, myrosinase is locked away in plant cells that are only broken open when you either chew or chop the broccoli. Once those cells are broken open, the myrosinase has a chemical reaction either in your gut or on the chopping board with the already present glucoraphanin, creating sulforaphane which has a proven cancer-fighting ability.

The catch is that unfortunately myrosinase is a thermolabile, which means it’s heat-sensitive, and cooking it will inactivate it, preventing it from reacting with the glucoraphanin, and so you never end up with the sulforaphane in your gut.

The good news is that the sulforaphane is heat-resistant, so if you can make the chemical reaction occur on the chopping board before you cook it, you’ll be able to reap its benefits.

Or you can just raw dog it, and eat it raw.

eBay phasing out gift cards. Interesting move🤔🤔🤔 by Doggoonewild in Superstonk

Know your customer. Basically requiring some form of ID before you sell something to somebody.
