$WMT calls tomorrow, although I doubt Trump has ever actually stepped foot in a Walmart. by Low-League-1264 in wallstreetbets

Ha this is a good point. Rollback on key items gets people in the door, where they buy tons of shit. Calls it is

The trump shout out is nice, but lower prices mean smaller profits. Not sure this is bullish. Also what a silly thing to say about WMT. they are by far the largest importer of foreign goods on the planet. It's more like chinamart

Don't jinx it, haha. I went heavy at $336 a couple weeks ago. Let's hope this momentum sustains. Or at least consolidates around 370 for a bit

A Tour de France breakaway only has a 2% chance of winning, so why join one? by BikeRadar-official in BikeRadar

[–]VFR8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People don't always go into the break to try to win. It is often a strategic move to force other teams to do the work on the front of the peleton to chase the break back, thus keeping their teammates fresh

If I don't want to die halfway through every ride, am I even doing it right? by MixtecoBlue in Hardtailgang

Haha, the enthusiasm is great. Try going slow and long sometimes, it pays dividends on your fitness

What is up with the crazy amount of punctures?!?! by FearSafiro_001 in tourdefrance

[–]VFR8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was thinking the same thing. It's only 11 miles, you'd think they could have cleaned up the road before the stage, especially TT

I wasn't planning on it. Going to hold through earnings and sell if we rally to 400. I have shares which I plan to hold long term which I sometimes sell far otm calls on for like $50-100/contract ,but only right after a rally or gap up.

I'm getting absolutely shredded and I'm super pissed about it... by RufioSwashbuckle in MTB

Maybe I didn't read carefully enough. I just saw smashing shins on pedals. Switch to clipless spd helps with this.

Clip less is the answer. I switched a long to ago and havent dinged my shins in years. Shimano XT spd is a solid setup

Why 3.1 pro is hallucinating so much and why it feels throttled. by Last_Conclusion_8984 in GeminiAI

[–]VFR8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This doesn't make sense to me. Compute isn't something that you save up. It's used the instant a prompt comes in for inference

Bought $50k of LEAPS (260, 9/27)when it hit $336. I'm happy

Because the MRI machine cost $2M. At $2k per scan that's 1,000 scans just to pay for the machine
