It is gambling, because dark pools. That is the house. You’re not trading the actual stock. The financial institutions do that. You buy stock from them, and they in turn give you a fake number and invest it in all secrecy.
In essence, you’ll get your money, but they will handle the profits. So it is a rigged slot machine.
Bruh, wtf you think stock trading is? Buying into funds is just hiring professional gamblers to work for you, "insider trading* is cheating and dark pools is just the high rollers table.
haha it suffered a slow and agenising death…
I dunno bro, sounds like fake news to me.
We’re like the ones on the outside of the matrix (good reference I know, right age group as well) knowing how screwed we really are. We can enter into it, but we have seen the outside.
Figuratively of course, even though I have heard a lot of good things about this “grass” people keep talking about. Why you would wanna touch it, I don’t know, but maybe one day.
Oh what days we live in when op can say Ni willy nilly to passersby commenters…
Cus they can’t access SWIFT, ofc they can’t buy.
Besides, China is working on their own GPU/NPU/ASIC production line.
Russia (vassal state) x China (dommy mommy state).
Best covert promo ever.
Tbh i hate the mirror universe now… from being a not-so-serious in-joke that came back every now and then, not as much as nudging the timeline, plot or characters into any too serious a direction, to becoming an important part of cannon that I just don’t like… mostly because of Discovery and Picard.
It’s really just too cheesy. Alternative universes, by all means, but just a mirror universe where there’s a bit of a role reversal which stems from can only be described as “a trend in the 70s”.
Mirror this, bizarro that, cod sarn it. To call it a gimmick is a bit of an understatement. To call it cannon is a bit embarrassing.
Now excuse me, I’ve ranted about Star Trek on the interwebz, so now I have to go fulfill the government mandated 3 hours of grass touching.
Mmm, so refreshing…
…I helped the unibomber.
Oh snap.
Europeans when Americans tell them that compulsory taxes are evil as they dive through boxes upon boxes of printed receipts looking for that one dinner at Wendy’s they want to file as a business expense.
Like dawg, tax month? Is it the month you get to decide what to do with your tax refunds? Smh.

Definitely r/OldPeopleFacebook material.
Ngl, Voyager is a banger. Does it drag on here and there? Yes. But my gawd is it good. Like my favourites list is kind of borked to some people, but for me it’s:
Prodigy ends up as an honourable mention, and the rest of the modern shows end up as dishonourable finger pointing. Even “Lower Decks” had me thinking it was just another cash grab, which sucks, because I’m sure the writers and actors are trying their best.
But yet, I’m still counting the months until I’ve forgotten most of the shows so I can go back AND BINGE THAT SHIT AGAIN!! In fact, chronologically, based on the timeline.
Maybe we could have a schedule here on this community about when we’re going to watch which season of which show and have discussions about it, so we can stay in sync :D
ngl, the show picks up. At first you get those “MURRICA” vibes and recoil like “plz not in star trek”. But then… it gets so much better.
In fact, gonna piss off a few of you with this one, but Enterprise is much better than Discovery or even Picard once it picks up.
I find Discovery and Picard to be a departure from the daring production, direction and storytelling that made Star Trek… well, Star Trek. Some might say “that was the point”, but was the point also to do the paint-by-numbers Hollywood remake bullshit that’s been blasting out of cinemas the passed, oh I don’t know… DECADE?!?
Anyways, slow start, but it picks up and adds valiantly to the Star Trek canon…
Also, y dey cancel Prodigy? :( Sadness.
No.
Please read my original post again. Did I say “was and always has been” or did I say “is”?
