@NipseyHoussle I spent my teenage years working weekends in Denmark, now I spend my shitty adulthood driving Uber every fucking day of the week in London - as a European, I find this offensive (please kill me)
Interesting thing about being an American in Europe: Europeans don’t work weekends. Ever.
You might think, well, nobody works weekends. But in the US there are whole industries built around it. Real estate agents. Car dealerships. Saturday and Sunday are the business.
Not here. If you want to see a house or test drive a car, you take time off work to do it. Somehow this is normal.
I don’t know how they pull it off. But they do.
007 First Light's James Bond is being bossed around by a woman.
I've watched the first 13 min. of 'gameplay'.
Bond:
"How can I help without knowing what's going on?"
Woman over comms:
"By doing exactly what I tell you."
This is a disaster.
@Heavenly_Race_@KillswitchNb Loving the salty high IQ comments, it's as if you just insulted their very being by suggesting a specific number of IQ points, their intelligence is unmatched 😂 What you said resonates with me, thanks for putting it together so well 🫶
Once you hit about a 20-point IQ gap, communication starts to completely break down.
It's not that the lower IQ person is "stupid" (although that can often be the case) or the higher one is arrogant, it's that you're literally operating on different systems.
A 20 point difference (roughly 1.3 standard deviations) means:
Vocabulary and abstraction levels diverge sharply. What feels like crystal clear logic to one side sounds like vague, pretentious word salad to the other. Jokes land flat. Metaphors get taken literally. Complex cause and effect chains get simplified into "this good, that bad."
Different time horizons and pattern recognition. One person thinks in months or years and sees systems, the other is locked into days or immediate rewards. Trying to explain second order effects feels like speaking another language.
Also, processing speed and working memory gaps. The higher IQ person is already three steps ahead, getting impatient. The lower IQ person feels talked down to or overwhelmed.
Both walk away frustrated.
Both have wasted each others time.
@texasrunnerDFW Just work out (with proper effort) and eat well, that will buy a lot of youth back. And a positive, almost naively optimistic, attitude to everything will also keep you more mentally "on"!
Once you’re past 35, are you just going to keep being gradually more tired every year for the rest of your life or is a there a second wind somewhere?
Anybody suddenly stumble upon newfound energy in their 40s?
50s?
60s, maybe with retirement?
Naturally, no HRT or hacks
@gotrice2024 Not just the stealing element but he's putting his nasty little fingers all over the pizza. His hands would previously have touched doors, his scooter handles (exposed to lots of dirt in the air etc.), probably doesn't wash in the toilet either. Disgusting
I may have mistaken but it definitely looks like he’s done this before. He even came prepared to reseal the box and even act like nothing happened. Makes we wonder how many times he’s done this before and whether he’s been caught yet, I definitely wouldn’t order from a place that does this.
@newstart_2024 Never understood how some people do the Jekyll and Hyde change when they drink. I love drinking and just open up a bit more, even after too many. No drama or chaos. Trying to get healthy lately and I don't feel any better, just miss the calm of enjoying a drink 😮💨
Josh Brolin nailed sobriety in one powerful line.
He loved drinking — called it gasoline in his veins. But he made it his mission to make sobriety more fun than his wildest nights. He was even willing to lose his wife Kathryn to put sobriety first.
No more Jekyll and Hyde. No more getting banned from every bar. That version of him is gone.
This one hit me hard. Most people see sobriety as losing something. Brolin treated it like upgrading his entire life.
Real change happens when the new path feels more alive than the old one.
Have you found sobriety (or quitting any bad habit) can actually become more rewarding than before?
@MTSlive No worries Elon and team, I didn't want to touch OpenAI products for a long time due to the foul smell coming off the leadership. Suggest others boycott them too
SITUATION DETECTED: The jury in Musk v. Altman has returned a unanimous verdict.
All three of Elon Musk's claims against OpenAI were found barred by the statute of limitations.
@t0mbfx Nothing more satisfying than starting a new evaluation and going max size on gold, hitting full profit target in one trade while not even watching because you're busy on the live account 😤
If you’re a profitable trader, you shouldn’t be spending months on one funded challenge
If you are, you’re probably under-leveraging
Risk 2% per trade, and either pass it fast, or fail it fast
Worst comes to worst you fail the challenge and have to buy another one - risk 2% per trade again and try to pass it in decent time
This is much better than having the same funded account for months, or even a year and risking 0.5% per trade trying to escape from drawdown
Fair enough if you’re not profitable yet
But if you ARE, then you lose much more in opportunity cost by staying on these challenges forever than you do in actual cost by failing 1 or 2
@iamnamake_ You're describing me as the skinny guy but I'm "muscular fat" according to my scale.. 🥲 And yes, quite fat in my opinion. How do Japanese people attain actual low bodyfat and good muscle mass?
@MikeReissWriter It's quite crazy really, the characters haven't even been shown in trailers yet. For all we know they are minor and maybe Achilles only shows up just to take an arrow in the heel and die, we can't judge before we've seen the damn movie 😮💨
@pupaqu@GuntherEagleman If your own statements had been manipulated and then circulated to the entire world (if your little opinion mattered at all to begin with), you probably would also hold a grudge.
Trump the giant pussy you all wish you had. What a fucken baby. This is the least credible least respected most low IQ president we have ever had in the history of this country. Such a fat coward crying all the time. The media hurt my feelings I’m gonna sue a journalist made me cry I’m gonna sue. The IRS released my taxes I’m gonna sue. He such a fucken drama farming pussy.
🚨 TRUMP ABSOLUTELY COOKS THE BBC 🫳🏼🎤
TRUMP: “Who are you with?”
REPORTER: “BBC”
Trump: “The ones that are being sued now for $5 BILLION dollars… You with BBC? They’re another FAKE outfit!”
“BBC, you mean the ones that put AI in my mouth? The ones that added me to saying a statement that they now admit was not true? The ones that put terrible words in my mouth and then had to admit that it was fake?”
@Ningqian6688@IamRamenPanda If a woman stayed with you on your journey and stood by your side during tough times, no amount of money will be spent on other women, the one you have is all you could ever wish for and you should feel like the luckiest man alive
One thing I have noticed here is that the frat brothers are often more interested in and open to learning ideas about the world than the artsy leftist humanities slackers.
