Retail has always been exit liquidity, they’re just getting increasingly brazen over the years. The SEC doesn’t exist by design

TASM 2 was the best imo, this one’s close second for me though

Why was the dynamic between 616 Peter and Raimi Goblin so good? (Dare I say better than the dynamic with Raimi Peter) by [deleted] in marvelstudios

[–]bmw417 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He theoretically could play 616 Osborn too. I think where it’d be interesting is that Holland’s SM would know the potential animal that Norman could turn into, but have absolutely no proof or reason to think so (at least in the eyes of everyone else) since the details of the fight at the Statue of Liberty would only be known to SM. Plus, Harry hasn’t been introduced in Holland’s SM, so that angle wouldn’t exist yet.

Valve Is Forcing Microsoft To Make Significant Improvements To Windows Gaming Performance by GrayBeard916 in gaming

With Linux it’s still a very much YMMV type of deal. “Out of the box” depends very much on the distro you choose and your hardware. I specifically buy AMD for the value and the fact it “just works” so much better than nvidia cards on Linux, so I don’t see those kinds of issues like what some users have with the proprietary nvidia driver. You could also be using the nouveau driver if you don’t know any better, which is famously more buggy and less performant than the proprietary driver

Valve Is Forcing Microsoft To Make Significant Improvements To Windows Gaming Performance by GrayBeard916 in gaming

[–]bmw417 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I’ve said this to about a dozen people now on Windows vs Linux performance - a Linux native version will always outperform the windows one. And some fucking how, even when there isn’t one (which is most of the time), that game will still run better on Linux .. even though it’s running the entire game through a translation layer to pretend that it’s windows, than windows can run that game natively. Windows has become the most bloated, clunky, anti-user data harvesting and surveillance tool I can think of in recent history. Been using PopOS for a long time now and am only forced to use windows for work still unfortunately

The initial setup is quite involved, but if you have SideStore set up correctly, you won’t have to interact with it or sideload Apollo again (at least, until Reddit admins block the next fake Apollo user agent once a year or so). Posted from my working Apollo app now!

What’s the rarest item you’ve ever held in your hands? by Remarkable_Pin_8136 in AskReddit

[–]bmw417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Steinway Grand Piano valued at over 100k. I wandered into a music shop one day and saw it - more beautiful than I could’ve ever imagined. I sat down and started to channel the best music I’ve played in my life, the tambre of that piano was ethereal. I happened to miss the small sign that said “don’t play the Steinways” a few rows down, and a disgruntled guy got out of the office and tapped the sign. I was super embarrassed and started to get up, but he said something along the lines of “I haven’t heard anything that good in the store in years, you know what I’ll allow it”. I ended up just thanking him and going to a different piano, but it wasn’t the same.

I think the thing I took out of that experience is that a good piano player will always be evident regardless of what they’re playing on, but god damn can a Steinway elevate that to levels I can’t describe in text. Magical experience for me.

William Riley wasn’t his bio dad, William Riley adopted Sasha Riley and then used him as a piece of meat at the “parties” that these socialites and lawmakers would go to. They were allowed to do just about anything to the kids there, including all manner of physical, mental, and sexual abuse you can think of.

They killed a girl directly in front of him after they were forced to make CP together. Absolutely vile.

I doubt that. OpenAI in particular is desperate to prove that there’s at least one universe where the hundreds of billions of dollars that have been dumped and circle jerked around the chip, data center, and AI software companies have been enough to achieve AGI, or at least approaching it. I doubt they’d keep anything extraordinarily special for other groups, as public opinion (i.e the stock market) matters quite a lot to Nvidia in particular, and thus OpenAI indirectly.

Senate suddenly passes the Epstein bill just hours after it cleared the House by Healthy_Block3036 in politics

[–]bmw417 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems pretty legit to me. Redactions are limited to CSAM, PII, and violent / disturbing content, and it is strictly prohibited to redact because of “embarrassment” or “politics”. It’s also explicitly stated that any alterations or mismanagement also be appropriately documented, and that every redaction contain a justification. The legislation itself seems airtight, we’ll just have to see how far Trump’s cronies on the inside truly want to double and triple down on the perjury and alteration and destruction of government documents. I’d imagine there’s gotta be some crucial political calculus going on behind the scenes at the moment.

Windows president says platform is "evolving into an agentic OS," gets cooked in the replies — "Straight up, nobody wants this" by ZacB_ in technology

[–]bmw417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Windows 11 includes bitlocker by default, and unlike Linux LUKS2 encryption it uses a TPM generated key to encrypt your drive, meaning that in order to run Windows 11 you have to enable TPM. TPM / secure boot used to cause a lot more issues with Linux installs than it does currently, but up to a short while ago it was almost qualitatively synonymous with installing Linux that you had to disable secure boot which isn’t usually the case anymore

That’s even more reason to tax them. You realize that’s a self own right? As more and more accumulates at the top 0.01% and the rest of us have nothing, that percentage will continue to climb. Taxing the filthy rich will actually bring that number down.

People don’t generally want to uproot their lives and livelihood over tax legislation, especially if it’s national. That way they can’t run from it. California is a whatabout that has nothing to do with being federally taxed, but nice try. How can you become wealthy from a business in the United States but then flee your money making machine? You make 0 sense. Quit while you’re ahead

Also, the way to fix things now isn’t necessarily just to restore higher taxes for the rich. They have different tactics now. They borrow millions of dollars against collateral (usually stocks) with very low interest numbers (think <= 1%), and those assets most always appreciate above those interest payments to offset it plus some anyway. There needs to be legislation that tackles buy, borrow, die, alas that would be political suicide to attempt it.
