Not sure if VW was first or not, but assuming they were, I think we should expect at least 2 more.

It’s part of project 2025. It’s more than just a few people.

Don’t forget food for children at home and in schools!

So are they going to delete all the votes prior to fix and require a revote in case people were duped about their options? Or are they okay with people voting without all the proper information and options?

Vance sure does love fucking couches!

Starlink and low-orbit sats for internet coverage are a similar leap ahead in cost and speed to deploy. Elon and his goons saw it coming long before anyone else did, and the fact they also have Space X was a pretty key part of their speed to deploy.

Starlink was SpaceXs solution to having a reusable first stage rocket and not enough demand for all the flights they could now do.

They basically poured billions into perfecting reuse, and had to find a way to make money on the new but upfront costly capabilities so they came up with starlink.

Edit: it also gave them a safer way to more easily test flight proven rockets with what was at the time more weary customers of the tech. For awhile NASA still wanted new rockets, but then became fine with flight proven as all the extra flights showed it was okay.

🤣😅

I feel like it’s not a prediction when it’s a known guaranteed fact.

I predict 1 + 1 = 2!

We have decades of science and knowledge already proving this.

Taking action against unrelated companies isn’t typically allowed.

The SECs quarrel is with Elon and Twitter and has nothing to do with his other companies.

However, much like his 420 tweet where they were able to have him resign as chair of Tesla, they could probably do something with sanctions that target him specifically, like disallow him from being on the board of a public company.

But that’s about as direct of an impact as they could have on the other companies.

He’s also a Canadian citizen (moved here originally then USA) so they’d just send him here instead.

Don’t we tame and capture Yoshi? Heh

Ah I knew that one, the above sounded like something else.

It costs money to buy a put contract to protect the loan.

So if you need a 1mil loan, now you also gotta buy puts that’ll protect a downturn of 1mil. So now you gotta sell stock which will be taxed. It’s less than 1mil so you’re taxed less, but you will have taxes.

Edit: you could zero cost collar (puts + covered calls) your investment to protect it’s current value, but you’ll give up potential gains as well to get the zero cost part. But this would be a way to protect the value without selling. If the options get exercised though, you’d then have some taxes to pay.

Anyone can buy stocks in a margin account and then borrow against it as margin, and use that margin to make more money. If you can open a brokerage account, you can do this.

Shit can turn on you real fast though and you can lose a lot of money since you’re borrowing against the value of a fluctuating asset.

E.g $1000 stocks let’s you buy $400 on margin, but if that $1000 becomes worth less than $700 you gotta pay back that $400, but now you gotta sell at $700 or pony up more cash and that $400 you bought is also only worth $200, so you sell $200 of your $700 and suddenly you’ve lost 50% of the value

So they filled the box for Gore, and then wrote his name down, and those got disqualified?

I didn’t follow this closely at the time (not American) but little tidbits like this pop up over the years and it’s fucking crazy.

Sarah made the kids painstakingly write all the content on that paper by hand for $1/h and made them do it a thousand times until it looked like it was computer printed.

Someome really needs to abort an ectopic pregnancy very early on and fight it all the way to the supreme court.

Everyone says it’s okay with releases like this, yet everyone is threatened about being charged for doing it due to vagueness and not being a risk until it’s almost too late.
