It’s going to fluctuate a lot on it’s way down.

The people who bought it for a high price will also buy at lower prices to get a better average in total. These kinds purchases will increase the price for no other reason and self fulfill the option to sell the total at a slightly higher average than rock bottom. It’s a (risky) way to cut the losses. Many people are probably still holding on to the overpriced stocks. With these things combined, existing investors can maintain an artificial high price. However, unless new investors start buying, it’ll slowly but steadily lose value over time as existing investors manage to seep out.

Not a hoopy frood.

I feel like I have seen that number a dozen times before, maybe more. It’s impossible to tell.

Yeah they do.

So does Hollywood.

Minecraft would have been better with a no-name actor as Steve. It would still suck, but at least it wouldn’t also be a Jack Black movie.

Don’t get me wrong, I like Jack Black; He plays an excellent role as Jack Black in movies where Jack Black does Jack Black things like the famous Jack Black falsetto, which is funny.

He’s no Steve, though. Steve is an anonymous character and very much not a famous celebrity. Any random person off the street would have been a better cast.

Copied from Wikipedia:

Initially, crew members are unaware of the loop. However, Dr. Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden) begins to hear noises before she goes to bed following the poker game. Having a sense of déjà vu during the poker game and being able to predict the cards Data will deal during a subsequent loop, Crusher takes a tricorder with her to her room, records the voices, and later analyzes them to discover they are the panicked commands and broadcasts of the crew. The senior staff work out that they are stuck in the loop; the voices they are hearing are those of themselves from the previous loop just prior to the destruction of the ship. They evaluate the voices to determine that the loop is restarted due to the collision of the two ships but do not know how to avoid that collision in the first place. Data suggests that his positronic brain can be used to send a short message to himself in the next loop which may help them to avoid the collision. When they arrive at the anomaly, and after the collision, Data sends the message.

Sweden does the opposite.

The reason why there’s always a Swedish actor in Nordic films is that the Swedish Film Institute gives funding to movies with Swedish actors.

It’s such a silly trope by now, but at least it’s the sane and successful way of doing it.

Adding a “tariff” will only result in more CGI slob. What if someone makes a movie with a story happening in Italy entirely by CGI? Would it be tariffed, and if so, what if the Italy location is actually in a galaxy far far away?

You could use your ticket money to pay off your mortgage, so all of your spendings are costing you the same interest at minimum.

So if you have a mortgage, you’re not supposed to buy anything until the house is paid off?

No, I’ve never done a hit and run, but the point is that if I got into an accident one day, I might become one whether I want to or not, because it’s an unconscious reaction.

The guy bankrupts everything he touches. Go ahead, take down the church.

Many hit and runs are done in panic. Lots of them turn themselves in later

What do mean “how long”? It’s exactly what happened here?

As a kid, a friend asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I said I wanted to be an inventor, like Gyro Gearloose.

He said: That’s not a job.

The largest QR code can hold up to 3 kb of data, which is more than enough to write a nasty virus in an injectable script if aimed at specific devices/apps. The main hurdle is breaking the app to execute the code instead of treating it as a string. It’s the Drop Bobby Tables joke. Developers hopefully don’t fall for this anymore.

Anyway. Making a shitty link and leading people there isn’t a new idea. You don’t even need a t-shirt. Hackers already place their own printed QR labels on top of otherwise real codes, and the user might not even notice, because they’ll be redirected to the right site after the dirty deed is done dirt cheap.

The plan was to go to the Titanic, which is on the bottom of the sea. Controller malfunction or not, the hull was the issue.

Yes. You probably just don’t see them on the streets as much, because concrete parks are being build everywhere.

It’s now part of the Olympics and a lot more girls skate too these days, so the sk8erboi stereotype doesn’t really fit very well any more.
