Few understand... How nonprofits work. Such as events needing cash in hand to reserve and down payment for next year year to exist. Places that serve clients such as soup kitchens need to also be able to weather price fluctuations and variance in visitors.
It's a really unusual capcom title. There is a sequel worth checking out too that most people don't know about. I think it's arcade only.
Late night thoughts:
So when petrol prices exceed 9.99$, how will they make the digital readout work when it doesn't support another digit?
Maybe it'll just be like those fancy restaurants with fresh orange juice that says, 'market price'.
Did UN Squadron (SNES) for @junkyarddave.bsky.social 's #ArcadeMonthly - really fun game and haven't played in a bit.
Got 680900 on 1cc! (Used 5 trucks have ordnance the final mission with $1mil plane instead of the 2nd most expensive - so 'real score' is 654900)
Fun!

Shh, I had a minute before I need to talk to some vampires this morning so this is what ended up happening.
This sounds like yet another lesson in the risks of 'asset backed financing!'
It's going alright. But I can't lift or do anything terribly strenuous.
Sorry I've gone a bit quiet folks but you're always welcome to check in. Thanks again to the donor and everyone who tried to or helped along the way.
Just laying low.
That's kinda hard to say. For how little money any of this stuff makes and how much depreciation there is, my gut says there's nothing of value to actually buy.
I don't even know what NVDA will do with CoreWeave. Will they just cut them loose when the whole thing blows up?
Hey it's Cid, from final fantasy, answering your call. You know when the music drops, I'm about to deus ex machina mostly solve your problem but then leave you stranded underground, thus serving as a plot moving device.
Thats pretty cool. I've been using GIMP for so long though that I got used to those shortcuts haha.
I will say it's interesting to not feel locked into adobe's 'all in one' system because I think that's how a lot of corporate ended up in it--it's nice because it 'has every tool' that's about it.
I'm aware of friends who got roped into it. The strategy I've heard is the same in the reply thread, cancel card/block payment.
You know when you break a mouse and have to swap to a backup while you're gluing pieces together and you can tell the weight and shape don't match correctly? Yeah...then you like hope they still make the other mouse you had.
Paralympic games are awesome. Just go down a mountain downhill while visually impaired (they have a guide in front of them).
Michigan Medicine is choosing to remove its southeast Michigan facilities and physicians from the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and BCN networks on July 1, 2026. We have very unfortunate news. Michigan Medicine, who you may know as the University of Michigan hospital system or health system, has notified us that their southeast Michigan facilities and physicians will no longer accept your Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan or Blue Care Network health insurance effective July 1, 2026. Medicare Advantage members are not impacted. We know this news may be very upsetting to Blue Cross members who have trusted and longstanding ties to Michigan Medicine, or who are receiving care within the health system. We want you to understand what is happening and assure you that we are ready to help you. What’s Happening? We have been negotiating new payment terms with Michigan Medicine for many months, which will dictate how much people and employers with Blue Cross insurance will pay for services there. After several rounds of negotiations, Michigan Medicine is demanding a 44 percent increase in payment over the term of a new contract. We oppose this because of the destabilizing impact it will have on the affordability of health care and health insurance for families and employers.
We Are Committed to Affordability Blue Cross wants our members to have access to the excellent care that the talented doctors, nurses and staff of the Michigan Medicine system provide. Our latest proposal to Michigan Medicine pays more – not less – for services. Blue Cross continues to work diligently in our negotiations to maintain affordable health insurance for our members and access to care at your medical facilities and physicians of choice. Our payment proposals to Michigan Medicine are fair and reasonable, providing increases that account for the incremental costs every business is experiencing, while providing additional payments focused on quality outcomes for patients. We remain hopeful that we will successfully negotiate a new payment contract before July 1, 2026. In the meantime, we are ready to help you find alternative care providers and plan for your care. Please read the information below. Michigan Medicine facilities that are affected Michigan Medicine University Hospital C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital Frankel Cardiovascular Center W.K. Kellogg Eye Center Livonia Center for Specialty Center West Ann Arbor Health Center Rogel Cancer Center U of M Transplant Center Von Voigtlander Women's Hospital Northville Health Center
Livonia Health Center Canton Health Center Ypsilanti Health Center Detroit Riverview Center Briarwood Medical Group Chelsea Health Center If you receive care at any of the above facilities or from a Michigan Medicine physician after June 30, you may incur out-of-network charges. We recommend you seek care from an in-network provider. In-network providers can be found on our website, www.bcbsm.com. While we continue to seek a resolution with Michigan Medicine, please visit bcbsm.com/updates for the latest information.

If you have further questions about payments for services under your coverage, please call the number on the back of your Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan or Blue Care Network card.
Thanks to blue cross blue shield of Michigan and Michigan Medicine having a spat, everyone is simply being told by BCBS Michigan to 'find an in-network provider' because THAT'S how healthcare works in the US!
*Special thanks to failure of federal government to squeeze these parties too!
So stupid.
It's like that time beavis and butthead sold chocolate except they trade up and back 'services in kind' instead of the same dollar.
If we value openAI based on actual money committed today, wouldn't that mean the valuation (let's say all the money and circular financing is 'real') is between 250-500 billion?
This is of course while being completely unprofitable and will almost certainly always be unprofitable.
Softbank took equity for $30 billion and that supposedly is also over 12 months. $10 billion supposedly now.
MSFT - this weird statement that sounds like a prenup after a divorce. No new money - IP rights and azure purchase contract stuff.
He just got done doing his scam show on CNBC.
So we got what?
AMZN $15 billion upfront -- rest requiring 'agi' impossible garbage or IPO and training chips on a 2GW commitment?
NVDA think $0 paid. Looks like a chip agreement to circularly finance for vera rubin.
Hey I just wanted to thank everyone again that's helped raised awareness for kidney donation for myself and @thatmothtink.bsky.social . An especially extra THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone who looks into donating! I don't have new news on Tink, hopefully good news soon. Fingers crossed!
It doesn't appear to be an accident that AWS, that other site, and youtube have all had major outages recently.
It's just really bad hockey. Every single one of these OTs past couple days were a slopfest.
Yeah that one! The one that is selling the deck chairs on a sinking ship to convince debt holders it's not time to rush for the exits.
Be careful out there, everyone should watch what Discord is doing (and others). Especially watch the end if you skip through.

Congrats to you both!
Congrats to you both!
That was maybe the worst 'agony of defeat' moments I've seen at the Olympics or in sport ever.
Thank you very much to @ohyoumlw.art @quackquackhonk.bsky.social for helping coordinate this!
And thank you to everyone who is considering donating (linktr.ee/kidneyfortink has all the information) and helping pass the information around!
QQH is right in front when you walk in and is booth 31
Hey! If you're headed to #motorcityfurcon @motorcityfurrycon.org this weekend and would like to help @thatmothtink.bsky.social find a kidney by passing around some cards with their donor information on it, @quackquackhonk.bsky.social will have those cards at Booth 31 in dealers, right by the door.
