...and world wide recession occurs.
They've been saying this for 2-3 years now, and keep moving the goal posts. "Recession still coming?..." No, we've BEEN in a global recession for years now. It's obvious to, well, literally everyone that earns a paycheck and spends money. The opposite is pretty much the truth in a world where: in the UK we have a criminal banker in chief who paid people to sit at home do nothing during a pandemic and whose wife tried to avoid paying income tax by registering non dom in the EU we have a criminal in chief who was the only person on the ballot to be elected and all of a sudden sits at the G7 table even though she doesn't lead a country in the US we have a criminal demented clown in chief who after a massacre at a school starts making jokes about the type of ice cream he likes and has the most disgusting son in the entire world and says he is proud of him All 3 imbeciles are pretending we can isolate the entire west from the rest of the world, not have fossil fuels, print endless money and any problems that arise are Putin's and Xi Jinping's fault. And if you disagree with any of their demented, sick rhetoric then YOU are the racist, YOU are the homophobe, YOU are the sexist and YOU are why there is a "climate crisis". Now pay up and they can continue to fly across the world and drive in their 75 car entourage whilst YOU pay 30% more for your groceries than last year. Thanks. Hold on, dude. You are talking about idiots, right? So, why do you care so much about what idiots are saying about YOU? Relax, take more care about what's happening inside you, less about what's happening outside of you. Like, if you remember, when you were a child, completely caught in playing games or whatever, while adults were laughing at you and you couldn't care less about that. Turn on Real Life Ignore Mode  It's never a good idea to ignore an injustice. Countries don't tolerate it - https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/china-secret-police-stations-allegations-reaction-quebec-1.6774461 " China accuses Canada of smearing its reputation over alleged secret police stations" @#$% Canadian bastards! |

Is there any explanation of this chart in more like ELI5 style? I did read the explanation provided underneath, however, I don't think I understood it. Especially it will be interesting to learn what people are making out of this chart?  Stacked snapshots of each minute (60 snapshots) of the volume of the bids (price people are offering to buy bitcoin) and volume of the asks (price people are offering to sell a bitcoin). The red and green lines meet where bid=ask which is where the buying/selling occurs. |

Gary Moore, co-founder of Intel and the guy who came up with "Moore's Law" even though he didn't call it a law (he merely made an observation), has died. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/newsroom/news/gordon-moore-obituary.html" SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 24, 2023 – Intel and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation announced today that company co-founder Gordon Moore has passed away at the age of 94.

Apparently, this is the perfect vessel for drinking coffee in zero-gravity situations.  The process of filling it is suspect. Good heavens! The lady demonstrating it even gently presses on the G-spot to make it gyrate. Has NASA been punked by science or is this from the twisted mind of a lonely cosmonaut?

...
as each of us gets older, our bodies become less tolerant to some kinds of abuses
...
 Don't even get me started. My doctor sent me for a few tests last week and I got a phone call from her early the next morning - that's never a good sign... and it wasn't. When I was younger, I would never even hear about the results. FFS, she wants me to cut the cream out of my coffee! Muh cream!! I actually tried to do it today when I ordered a coffee but then I noticed they wrote "C" on the lid. I asked them about it and apparently even though I swear I asked for milk (it was literally the only thing I was thinking and crying about as I entered the coffee shop), it came out sounding like "cream". Weird. The lady offered to make another coffee with milk but I told her it was fate and I wasn't about to mess with that. I'll be trying again tomorrow anyway. I might have to write "milk" on my hand... or tie a string around my nipple or something. |

10.4% inflation. "A complete shock." "Totally unexpected." How could this possibly happen with our safe pound handled by such professor geniuses such as Andrew Faily, Jeremy Cunt and Rishi Sputnik. Ironically, my insurance payouts were upped by roughly 6% ("inflation compensation") for 2023. Don't ask me how they calculated that number, i guess they just left energy and food prices out of the equation  On the other hand, i'm really blessed to get regular money from the social system, at my age, at all. EDIT: While the government's economic experts recently said it's very OK for everyone to work full time until the age of 80.  I feel sad for the 70-something year old people you see at supermarket checkouts now even at times. Sure, that age range will probably only increase with evil insane policies being invented right now. These people should be able to put their feet up. But this is what you get with evil fiat pushers in charge. I remember very distinctly when, right in the beginning of 2021 during the Covid bullshit, a major national grocery store near us scrapped all of their cashier lanes for self-check out lanes. (funny how they had those units ready to go right when the pandemic hit, huh? what perfect timing.)This grocery store employed mostly 50-65 year old cashiers for years and years. I remember talking to one of them the week after the switch out, and they said, "No it's a good thing...contactless, faster checkout because people can bag their own groceries...plus our company promised we'd still all be able to keep our jobs." And they were still there...for about a year. They would oversee/manage the self-checkout units instead of directly checking people out. Now all those older employees are completely gone, replaced by clueless 20 year olds now. I guess they can 'put their feet up' now, whether they wanted to or not. "Keep our jobs, they said." I was in the middle of butt-fuck nowhere New York and I stopped at a Circle K for gas. Being the only game in town, they had a little variety store going on with a few fresh fruits, ready-to-go foods and a quick-fry grill inside the shop so I decided to get a drink and some cheese curds for the road. There were two older ladies standing by the cash register chatting but they directed me to a self-checkout device rather than ringing me up. I didn't want to waste time learning how to use their machine since I would never be there again but they insisted I had to use it because it was "safer". I said, "Safer than what?! Anyway, I only have cash." then they replied, "It takes cash too!" While I was being shown how to use it, the lady explained it was "touchless" so that's what made it safer. Funny, I don't remember ever being able to touch the cashiers but they were never actually referred to as "touchless". Ah, technology. |

Well now we know who didn't watch the video linked a couple of posts back - " Legarde was pranked by a fake Zelensky" Legarde: ...so the inflation that we had hoped would be transitory has continued much longer than thought and at a much higher level than expected... It's worth listening to the clip as fake Zelensky gets a lot of interesting information out of her. Are the 70's coming back Who remembers this term "Stag-flation" google search result below "The stagflation of the 1970s, a combination of slow growth and rapidly rising prices, challenged prior assumptions, leading economists to examine the causes and policies that would end the stagnant period." Oh I remember that and I relished it! I went to the bank with CA$100 CAD to change to USD for a trip and they gave me US$105 for it. The US always had a much greater variety of goods for purchase than Canada and you had those "all you can eat" buffets too; even as a middle class Canuck, I felt like a rich kid going on vacation. edit: just went there last week and I got less than US$72 for that same CA$100. Also, the prices of pretty much everything are higher in the US without even taking the exchange rate into account. I got soaked. edit2: gasoline might have been slightly cheaper than here but it's hard to convert on the fly from US dollars per US gallon to Canadian dollars per liter |

It Turns Out That JPMorgan Bought the Nickel That Turned Out to Be StonesJPMorgan Chase owned bags of material kept in a Dutch warehouse that were supposed to contain nickel but turned out to be full of stones, people familiar with the matter said.
The London Metal Exchange said last week that sacks thought to hold 54 metric tons of nickel in an unnamed warehouse had failed to comply with its standards. Wonder how we are going to end up paying for that? They've been manipulating precious metal prices for years so I find it hard to believe they were duped by a few bags of rocks purported to be nickel. I'm sure it's part of a larger scam they're working on. Anyway, even if it was supposed to be nickel, it's barely over a million dollars worth; a tonne of nickel is worth ~80% of one bitcoin. Not even sure why this is a story since $1M is a drop in the bucket for ole JP with a net profit of $128B last year. |
