That motherfucker is using excessive force. That's just a girl, her wife and that son of a bitch is like a fucking piece of shit. Thanks for ruining my day. I am sending thoughts to that poor girl. I mean her slaps caused nothing to the motherfucker physically only hurt his fucking ego. Son of a fucking bitchy bitch.

@MasterMaliq@Ander35213Craig I'll judge you by your texts, how about that. There are tons of Christians that don't do what the Bible prescribes. That doesn't mean Christianity is bad, it means the person is.
Islam is the opposite. The texts are pure evil.
@Ander35213Craig That analogy doesn’t work.
Muslims aren’t one organised “team” with a shared goal. That’s just a stereotype, not reality.
Judge people by actions, not imagined group strategies.
Muslims are not dangerous. We are human beings like everyone else, with families, love, care, and ordinary lives. Our faith teaches compassion, not hatred. Our Prophet taught respect and mercy.
Yes, there are a few extremists who distort our religion and bring shame to it, but they do not represent the vast majority of Muslims.
So why is it that many still get profiled and treated as suspects? Is it fear, or hate?
@MasterMaliq Your leader died, leaving standing orders to kill the Jews and Christians. He also stayed dead by the way.
Any religion or follower of that religion who secretly has an agenda under the illusion of peace to take over and kill those that oppose them can get fucked. You included
I did not realise they were taxing gross rather than net gains… AFR: Investors with diversified share portfolios making a mix of gains and losses compared to inflation could face tax rates of more than 100 per cent on real gains, due to the Albanese government not compensating investors for underperforming stocks.
A former senior Treasury tax official and a hedge fund manager both warned that people with a diversified portfolio of shares could face tax rates 50 per cent higher than Treasury calculated… Chalmers’ office and Treasury were contacted for comment on Thursday about whether real losses would be indexed to inflation.
Under another example, an investor buys shares in Coles and Woolworths, with one outperforming inflation and the other underperforming inflation.
The overall real return is zero after inflation, but the investor would pay tax on the winning stock.
If an investor instead bought an ETF of supermarkets with the same overall result, they would pay no tax.

A gang targeted, lured and gang raped two young girls at knifepoint while they filmed it and laughed while they took turns.
One of the girls said "All I want to do is die, I no longer have fear for when that comes"
All of them spared a prison sentence today!
Wtf is going on?
@BobBurn97207272 "but there are still some people who support Natalie"
You'll find that the majority support her. Most aren't brainwashed, you only hear from the vocal minority that are.
A fierce wave of backlash is surging after broadcaster Natalie Barr stated that children should not be exposed to cartoons with LGBTQ themes. She affirmed that raising children should focus on “traditional values” and that adults should only allow kids to experience their childhood in a pure and innocent way. This statement immediately sparked strong opposition and calls for her dismissal, but there are still some people who support Natalie. However, Natalie Barr showed no concession or fear in the face of opposing opinions or demands to sack her
@cjoye Thing is
Buying a rental property wont be too much concern with cgt if the goal is to just rent it out
Then you can use equity to buy something else
If the goal is flipping/onselling thats a different story
But holding assets is always a win
The single biggest winner from the budget: the tax-free owner-occupied home, which is where people will put their money. After the budget doubles the capital gains tax on productive businesses/assets from circa 23.5% to 46-47%, investors will understandably pull money from businesses, shares, commercial property and rental housing and plough it into their tax-free owner-occupied home. It's a great way to push up the prices of these houses. On the other hand, cutting negative gearing while also doubling CGT makes investing in rental properties extremely unattractive. It hammers the capital gain upside on any asset: shares, commercial property, the small or medium sized business you built, venture capital and private equity. It will give Australia the most unattractive capital gains tax in the WORLD (see table below)! So the government's policies will (1) push up owner-occupied house prices, (2) push up rents, and (3) reduce the capital available for investing in any small, medium or large sized business that is driving employment, innovation, growth and productivity/prosperity. Investors will go to other countries where they pay half the capital gains tax, or less. Since these pollies have never worked a day of their lives in the private sector, it is no surprise that when they decide to completely and unilaterally rewrite the entire tax system for all investors and businesses -- after promising before the last election more than 50 times NOT to change the capital gains tax and negative gearing rules -- that they would blow the entire Aussie economy up... Your best bet will be to buy a house, live in it, and hope they keep dropping 500,000 new people into the country every year to pump-up prices...
We truly are witnessing history right now.
It's clear that the period we are in now will be referenced for decades to come.
The S&P 500 has added +$10 trillion in 29 days, semiconductor, AI stocks are surging 100%+ in weeks, and the Trump Administration is up +550% on Intel.
When we began emphasizing the need to own assets to win in this market over 12 months ago, this is exactly what we meant.
While inflation is back and the labor market has weakened, it simply does not matter right now.
In fact, the return of inflation has only intensified the scramble for yield and hard assets that can preserve purchasing power.
Look at the data: just 5 stocks have accounted for ~50% of the S&P 500’s total gains since April 1st.
These same tech giants driving the market higher are gaining even more momentum amid rate cuts, deregulation, and historic inflows into equities.
Asset owners are experiencing one of the greatest wealth expansions in modern history while everyone else is being left behind.
Our 12+ month thesis has materialized.
Elliot Page is producing a Shakespeare show in London with an all trans and non-binary cast only. No straight actors allowed in this version of classic theater. This is peak wokeism where even Shakespeare gets rewritten to fit the latest gender ideology
@CollinRugg I have seen things in my life that I could never explain. This is nothing new to me. I have seen these things my whole life. I have my own photos. I don’t need government clarification. I have been seeing these things my whole life.
NEW: Rep. Tim Burchett says the first drop of UFO files is a "drop in the bucket" compared to the "Holy Crap" moment that is coming.
"The 1st drop will be big but in comparison to what is coming they will be a drop in the bucket. I would say “Holy Crap” is coming," he said.
162 files were released on Friday, some of them dating back 80 years.
The following footage was from an infrared sensor aboard a United States military platform in 2013, according to the Department of War.
[ICYMI] After switching to Starfish, outbound pull requests on the IOTA Mainnet dropped by ~88%.
That’s validators no longer having to stop and recover missing history on the critical path.
Less scrambling.
More moving forward.
Starfish.
Imagine paying £10,000 a year to send your children to Oxford University and this is their lecturer.
Not even joking.
This is an actual lecturer at Oxford University in "Modern England".
At the 07:45 UTC epoch change on 2026-04-23, IOTA Mainnet switched from Mysticeti to Starfish.
We are very happy with what we see in the first Mainnet metrics.
Starfish shows the tradeoff we wanted to make.
We designed it to make the protocol more robust and more predictable by reducing synchronization debt: fewer late pulls for missing history, fewer holes in the DAG, and better behavior in the slow cases.
The cost is also visible: more steady communication / bandwidth, and slightly higher latency in the clean happy case because Starfish adds an availability step before sequencing.
Blue = Mysticeti before the epoch change.
Green = Starfish after the epoch change.
Each chart has two panels:
• Top: time series around the epoch change.
• Bottom: ECDF after cooldown.
ECDF stands for empirical cumulative distribution function. For a given value on the x-axis, the ECDF tells you what fraction of observations were at or below that value. The steeper and tighter the curve, the smaller the variance — and the more robust the system.
1. Commit latency
The first graph shows internal commit latency: the consensus step.
The top panel plots p50, p90, and p99 over time. For example, p99 means that 99% of observations are at or below that line, and 1% are above it.
The main signal is the tail.
The median improves a bit, but the p99 improves much more: roughly 486 ms → 312 ms.
In the ECDF, the Starfish curve is tighter and the right tail is much shorter.
This is exactly the robustness story we wanted to see: fewer slow commits, not just a slightly better average.
To everyone who claims that #IOTA is dead.
You focus on the price every day;
I focus on the structure of the weekly or monthly chart.
IOTA hasn’t shown an uptrend in eight years.
It follows the footsteps of XRP almost exactly.
Price target: $6–$9.
A revaluation is imminent. Fair value will be re-established.
btw it was never an alt-season in that (X) Wave.
it was a corrective move of the major structure
Next Boom Cycle is coming closer
