@Halsrethink are they really right wing because as soon as they come to power they seem to take left wing stances?

Polls across Europe are showing swing to the right politically. Italy's PM Giorgia Meloni visited Washington last week and convincingly showed Congress&press a new European type of leader in broad alignment with US has emerged

@SantiagoAuFund @XRP4UandMe how was the safety in the streets? I've heard mixed opinions

@XRP4UandMe Brought USD in and exchanged at dollar blue rate

Reflections as I leave Argentina: - Incredible trip. As good as any I have ever taken. Can’t recommend it enough. - From a diversity perspective it has it all. Beaches, jungles, waterfalls, grasslands, cities and mountains. - The older generation prefers Maradona while the younger generation prefers Messi. Murals featuring both are all over the place. - Despite the countries fiscal problems, the people all seemed very happy. - Said country’s fiscal problems allow for a first class itinerary at a fraction of the cost of traveling elsewhere. - Carrying cash in a country whose currency had already plummeted and fell another 5% in the few weeks I was here is a pain in the *ss. - Uber exists here but is very slow…. - The last time I ate this much beef I was a teenager in Nebraska. - Dulce de Leche is most likely served in Heaven. - Chori Pan is a much better street food than a hot dog - The whole country is addicted to Yerba Mate and even carry it with them when venturing into the jungle and onto the tops of mountains. - Driving a stick shift (for the first time in 20 years) on a snowy mountain back road will lead to some “fun” conversations with your family. - The cab driver was happy to accept USD when he dropped us off at the Airport. 😅 🇦🇷💃🐒🏔️🌨️🎿⚽️🏟️

@krugermacro what is the fastest time they could approve it if they really wanted to?

The SEC's approval/rejection of the Blackrock ETF would come by February 2024, within 240 days of filing in the Federal Register. 👇 The SEC has a maximum of 45 days from the date of filing to publish a notice of the application in the Federal Register. After this initial notice, there is a 45-day period for interested parties to submit comments, followed by an additional 45-day period for responses to those comments. The SEC may then extend the review period by up to 90 days, making the total review period up to 240 days. This extension typically occurs when the proposed ETF raises complex or novel issues that require additional time for thorough evaluation.

@777_hotdog @RWApodcast how many of them have drones capable of attacking buildings?

"Last night, the Kiev regime attempted a drone strike on the President's Kremlin residence" - Kremlin

@RWApodcast how would a drone fly from Ukraine to Russia and reach the Kremlin undetected? doesn't seem plausible?

Reportedly footage of the attack

@LucaFury @ThePYNPodcast @ChronicCombat @DanTomMMA @GuruScoutingMMA @TBScoutingMMA can you fully cover your face with 0.75 of your palm?

Make sure to check out my appearances on @ThePYNPodcast and @ChronicCombat talking #UFC287. Love chatting with @DanTomMMA, @GuruScoutingMMA and @TBScoutingMMA. Great gents!

@FatManTerra this part seems highly unlikely. Those words were not common and they are not capitalized. Even with 750k followers

We mentioned bruteforcing earlier. If a string is short or comprises of common dictionary words, it can be cracked by a fast computer. Longer strings, or strings with additional random characters (what we call a "salt") make it harder for a computer to guess the string (6/9)

There are two primary uses cases for this: 1. Proving you knew something without spooking the market. You can commit to a prediction and reveal the string after the event plays out, thus having cryptographic evidence of your foreknowledge, without causing a disturbance (4/9)

@cobie @FatManTerra @adamscochran @0xShual @HsakaTrades how could they have leaked it with it being case sensitive and them having to guess the exact wording you'd use?

@FatManTerra @adamscochran @0xShual @HsakaTrades Ok I posted another (roughly same complexity but not really any meaningful message) — if someone can tell me what this says then I’ll believe the unsalted bruteforce theory.

I think @HsakaTrades is probably the only other ct account other than @cobie that could've caused such a splash and reaction by the market, CT and news outlets altogether

@LucaFury Bisping would've been the underdog vs most top 10 at the time. Francis didn't take the Jones fight. Gane will likely be the betting favorite against any top 10 HW even after the 2 losses.

Exactly. GSP didn’t take the Anderson fight but once Bisping becomes champ, boom, he’s suddenly back for one fight. I’m not blaming them, it’s a VERY smart career move. But it’s also transparent and hilarious how they fans follow along and get played like a fiddle.

@amlivemon he's been shilling BTC, gold and silver for years. Except for the 2021 shill, BTC is still up compared to every year...

That loser has tried to pump crypto for years. He’s been wrong every damn year.

@LucaFury you are looking at just the results but Khabib just made everyone look like a bum. Jones or GSP had fights where they made their opponent look like they were at the same level

Khabib could’ve put himself in the GOAT convo had he stuck around and beat more than a few top fighters. I would favor him over every current 155er, mostly likely by finish too. He could’ve left no doubt but instead he left all the doubt. We’ll never know how good he truly was. The losses of the GOATs or near-GOATs usually came via upset in fights they were expected to win. So simply favoring Khabib over other top LWs isn’t enough — he needed to go out and actually prove it, like the fighters ahead of him in the GOAT convo did.

@RJcliffordMMA @LucaFury results wise for sure but Jones lost a lot of rounds or even got his arm broken vs Vitor in a round he won. I don't remember Khabib getting a hard punch, kick or in a sub(Poirier didn't finish anyone by guillotine so I don't even count that)

@LucaFury Jon Jones beat more elite fighters in 2011 than Khabib beat in his entire career.

@amlivemon why did they win 1 senate seat?

More Americans identify as Rs than at any time since HW Bush era, and the D advantage on party is smallest it has been in decades.

@ggreenwald if the public buys it...hate the game not the player

Beyond that, the "flexibility" of left-liberal discourse rules is always fascianting to observe. This is a white guy sanctimoniously lecturing a woman of color on the realities of racism in the US, something that is barred except, as here, when it's done for the right party.

There's almost nobody in the country I'd rather vote for less than Nikki Haley. She captures everything horrible about the establishment GOP while incorporating nothing new. But this is the scummiest and most racist way to attack her, so of course liberals opt for that:

@chrissaccoccia1 do they also punish you in any way if you go above the 15 minutes distances?

@ggreenwald I cannot blame just the MSM here. The American public saw him in debates and was perfectly aware. Yet they still voted for him.

If employees of media corporations and left-liberal activist types would just be as candid as Sam Harris was there -- that the goal of defeating Republicans and especially Trump is so paramount that they'd do anything to do it, even censorship and lying - I'd respect it more.

Today's NYT article on Fetterman makes clear his incapacities and health challenges are far graver than were known. Nothing but the best of wishes to Fetterman and his recovery, but it's urgent to recall how aggressively and deliberately the media lied about this to elect him:

@OAlexanderDK what is your theory on who did it?

We have a new post in the running for the annual “Dumbest Post On Twitter” award.

@OAlexanderDK I was told by the same sources that twitter was shutting down on Nov 18 due to layoffs of critical workers.

At least Twitter Blue subscriptions can pay 2.8% of Twitter’s new annual debt payments.

340k Twitter Blue Users and $28 million in annual revenue assuming people stay subscribed. Where is this new Twitter Blue creator revenue going to come from? Twitter is still in the red and now looking to start sharing its limited revenue.

@NickKyrgios @DjokerNole so not only is he not dead but unvaxed man beating everyone while losing only 1 set in the early stages

Haha I told you. We created a monster. Well done @DjokerNole …. Sat on my couch and enjoyed the entire show 💰🙏🏽 soak it all in….

@patrickbetdavid He won't come. He doesn't even understand that they didn't 'lose' or 'win' they just had company shares. He couldn't debate this topic

I’d like to invite you to join me on a 3 hour podcast to discuss economy & taxes. Many tell me you’d never do it but I’d like to think you’re a fairly courageous guy who believes in his positions. I’ll even make a $10,000 donation to your favorite charity. What do you say?
