Shkreli might genuinely be an autistic evil genius
I've seen his analysis shared on some stocks - he compiles data from other trials, digs into the biology papers, reads the options market expectations and accurately predicts 30% stock crashes and gets filthy rich (and sometimes loses a lot). And he has shown that he can do that repeatedly.
On the other hand the way he played wallstreetbets was so unethical. I could not even imagine being this evil if I wanted to.
Martin Shkreli is like what Dr Doofenshmirtz is but unironically and in real life

top: fake artificial colors. Cheap plastic to artificially spark joy in children. A manifestation of everything that's wrong with modern society.
bottom: Mimicking of natural colors. Stone. Wood. Authentic human experience. A candid, calm and grounded experience. RETVRN.

But I uploaded the template hoping stackers make their own versions :)
I guess some people think they spend LESS time looking at screens when they can quickly do the small things on their wrist. Especially when the phone draws you in and you open the next app and the next app out of habit. Not sure if it is actually true.
Here in Europe I expect most people to have learned about the mechanical mechanism (wrist movement + ratchet + spring) in school. Do you not?
Any questions? I'll try to answer it
Back in the day I got an Apple watch for doing "small tasks" without pulling out my phone. E.g. forwarding to the next song while walking or reply thumbs up to text messages. But it got annoying pretty quickly because of how slow the watch was
Is that still a problem with modern smart watches like the Garmin?
Like a mechanical watch that tightens its spring with a ratchet and the natural movement of your wrist instead of by turning the crown
I feel like everybody should know this. Maybe it's different in the US but here in Europe I expect all middle class people to have learned at least this much about machinery in school
I think the natural stuff like no sulfur and natural fermentation is cool. But you don't do any of the biodynamic nonsense like rituals at full moon and stuff, do you?
A few observations from my end:
- Most Democrat boy names are Hispanic/ethnic boy names while Democrat girl names are not. Why could that be? Do Latino families want their boys to continue their family legacy while girls get integrated faster? Do I interpret too much into this?
- Democrat girl names end on "a" while Republican girl names often end on "y" or "eigh". Isn't that curious?
- The Republican boy names sound all really lower class coded to me. The Democrat boy names too. The girl names do not. Please tell me if you feel the same or if you disagree.
Might still be worth discussing. The WSJ has little interpretation here. The Trump admin and DOGE are currently bosting about cutting crumbs (a few million Dollars here and there) while ignoring the cake (Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, Defense)
Reddit is very fast on the shadowban switch. And rightfully so, they're under more bot attacks, astroturfs and brigading than any other platform.
What triggered it in your case were probably the frequent IP changes that come with Tor. Mitigation is using an account that already has trust built up. Or establish an account via VPN instead of Tor
Notably this is not the first time Apple has issues with checking identities on TLS initial connection. There was a famous bug years ago called "Goto Fail" where MacOS would just accept any signature/identity in certain cases.
Sometimes you just want to shake Apple management and scream: implement. basic. unit. tests. for. security. stuff. aaaaa.
