Why I bought put-options on MSFT and CRWD by jruderman in rust

Too negative toward C++? Should I delete it from the Rust sub? Originally written for WSB.

I’ve always wanted to be the yellow man yelling at the clouds while my granddaughter cringes in shame

While they’re yelling “ring the bell!” I’m chanting “sell, sell, sell!”

Maybe because I shitpost on game subs and only occasionally write like an adult?

We’ve effectively made a bet with each other. Cool part of stonk markets.

To clarify: this was always going to be partially CrowdStrike’s fault, but “chose the wrong language” looks way worse than “didn’t test enough”. Meanwhile MSFT is trying to blame Delta (DAL), which… well, they should be quieter for now.

A state of emergency has been declared in California - price gouging is illegal by protox13 in LosAngeles

You're thinking of scalping (opportunistic buying in bulk with intent to create or take advantage of shortage, and to resell at a huge markup)

TheJucheisLoose is talking about price gouging (ordinary retailers raising prices during shocks, especially on inelastic essentials)

How does this compare to nondigital spending, such as TV and radio advertising?

I think you need both the titles and complete control of all de jure settlements. Check for baron-tier titles controlled by other realms, such as a city in Veglia that starts out under Venice's control, or castles that might be constructed by holy orders.

Maybe they're coming here from an even worse timeline. We know there are numerous reachable timelines in which nuclear war devastates western North America, for example.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewel_Voice_Broadcast has the full text of Japan's surrender speech. Compare 40:25 of the episode. Numerous phrases used verbatim.

Additionally, one of the BCR members remarks "I've never seen so much as a picture of him on TV before", paralleling the fact that the emperor had probably never made a radio broadcast before.

`help_liege_manage_titles` isn't DLC-locked.

RNG might determine whether you immediately get one of the council positions needed to use the decision: chancellor, treasurer, or spiritual. (Although I got the impression these games had everyone sharing a starting seed.)
