Alex Haha well, I actually spend my days building software systems used in short selling, so I can’t get too high and mighty about it. In fact, sounds totally reasonable to me, definitely not amoral in any way. 😅
DrDamn Alex it’s more the idea that they discover something which will cause the drop, then purchased short sell positions to benefit from it before they themselves set it in motion.
Alex Haha yeah, I mean at least I don’t work for the Pharma company charging $50,000 a dose for something that doesn’t even work.
Alex Splinter Cell getting BBC Radio 4 dramatization. https://www.eurogamer.net/step-aside-netflix-splinter-cell-is-getting-a-bbc-radio-4-adaptation This really is peak alternative timeline stuff.
Brave Especially as Sam is getting played by a member of the cast from The Archers. This is totally the wrong universe.
Alex Alex the followup on my post from last year, the trailer from the new Indiana Jones is out and Glasgow’s looking pretty great. Glasgow visible first at 8 seconds in, then again for the tickertape parade at 55 seconds.
Alex So I’m pretty confident the 8 second in shot is on King Street looking at Transmission. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@55.8564434,-4.2465344,3a,67.4y,329.13h,98.88t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sZyZbhsEQt6cQXXtHAuq_zw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192
MadAndy It looks amazing!!! They’ve even kept the music, but made it feel ‘older’. I was concerned about it to be honest - but that trailer looks really good.
Alex This really is a very strange timeline. Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg agree to hold cage fight Once they’re in the cage, can we lock it and drop it in the sea?
Alex This BBC article GTA 6 hacker handed indefinite hospital order contains some pretty crazy details. Despite having his laptop confiscated, Kurtaj managed to breach Rockstar, the company behind GTA, using an Amazon Firestick, his hotel TV and a mobile phone. I mean, that’s sort of wildly impressive. I spent six hours the other day trying to find a bug that was caused by me forgetting that I’d intentionally inserted an error into a config file to test something. Still he must not be right in the head if he can’t even pretend that he’s not going to keep hacking for a bit to get out of jail.
Gammerz Funny BBC article. Interesting that a muppet article was tagged (related topics) with “Joe Biden”!🤣
Gammerz Politics at its best: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/cg4ln6ddgy9o?fbclid=IwY2xjawGpZj5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHeH-uzJQEr1a3XXPo7DsqBasWnogyv9F8ciD1UtL9d_FDqtljctHKY7ctA_aem_Xf0L27ijQp7K3-R2TN8e4Q
