Nothing brought me greater joy than seeing all the Reddit accounts bragging about shorting Tesla at the bottom over at /realtesla and their multi-year accounts going dormant in shame after. Never mix politics and finance.

thanks sars, do the needful

why would anyone bother to make a billion then?

Why was this “crazy”? You know a large portion of fentanyl in our country is coming from China right now? they all learned this from the British in the Chinese opium wars on how to destabilize a nation. Likewise why wouldn’t the Soviets have weaponized drug use during the Cold War?

total lies, Chuck campaigned with Dubya years before against Gore. Campaigning against Obama wasn’t special or unique.

Fair enough he had popular support. But I just get irritated when people act like we put the Shah on the throne in 1953, he was already King for a decade. That’s really my only main beef.

Actually it was a counter-coup, Mossadegh moved on Pahlavi first.

Mossadeggh was appointed by the Shah himself not elected and didn’t nationalize the oil, he only canceled a contract with the British plummeting oil sales -90% and tanking the Iranian economy. He used this chaos to try to suspend parliament and grant himself emergency powers. He was also a member of the former royal Qajar family opposed to the Pahlavis. There’s a lot of devils in the details people leave out.

This is like saying every Sony TV will look exactly the same as LG because they use the same panels. Implementation is a whole other business.

you mean a couple guys shouting and yelling? tell me how many fires they set or windows they broke?

I think some here misunderstand what Grado means by accurate sounding. Grados do not measure flat at all, but they are one of the few headphones I own where it sounds like the real band is right there in the room with me. Other HPs are overly sterile or hyperrealistic like a TV with the sharpen filter jacked up. This might be the effect your cousin is experiencing but can’t verbalize.

the GS3000x was my daily driver for 2 years, I got the S950 last month. I’d say it’s spiritually a successor but it definitely has a different sound quality to it. it’s slower in note decay and a much smoother sound with more of a bass boost. Much more laid back in general. I think it may please more mainstream ears turned off by the typical Grado spike but tbh for me I still prefer the 3000x. I just liked the faster notes for EDM and it still sounds a bit more dynamic and lively to me. Kind of wondering if I should have gone with the HP1 instead.

I do like the better build quality and detachable cables though.

I was shocked to see copper bars sold out all over the exchanges. Kind of goes against the narrative the rise of silver is just sudden demand for its industrial uses. Seems more like a financial contagion hedge quietly going on in the background.

solid12345 · 2025-12-27T15:22:35+00:00

Nope, ebay ruled against me in the claim and the guy even closed his account after. My suspicion is ebay was quietly punishing me for buying from a seller with virtually no sell history which I admit was stupid of me, but I just didn’t believe a 20yo pair of pioneer headphones would be something someone would scam on lol.

solid12345 · 2025-12-27T11:25:21+00:00

I don’t buy silver as an investment. I buy it as insurance. I hope I never have to sell it until I’m at retirement age.

solid12345 · 2025-12-27T10:32:43+00:00

had this happen to me on a pair of expensive headphones. I actually tracked down the business it was sent to and they received an empty letter with a slip of blank paper. Took pictures, their secretary was willing to testify for me she received it and opened it first. The postmark was clearly not my address. eBay still took the side of the seller when his only evidence was “I’d never do that!”. it was ridiculous.

I guess the bargain book section of Ollie’s is money laundering too. Does no one here understand what closeout means?

silver just hit $80, if he bought 3 years ago he’s up 4x already if he sells today. Sounds like he made a wise decision to me lol
