Tesla slashes vehicle and self-driving-ish software prices as shares plummet
I'm expecting the company to go out of business and all of the cars to just brick.
Might be a good move to figure out how to hack the software and/or reclaim the batteries for resale, might be kinda lucrative.
On the other hand, if they do brick overnight it might be dangerous, and I hope Tesla demonstrates some responsibility to the lives and safety of their consumers. I don't expect them to, but I hope so.

Millionaire tries to prove becoming wealthy is easy by becoming homeless and making a million in a year - and of course fails miserably and quits, citing reality
How is this possible? Either he didn't work hard enough or there are systematic barriers to accumulating wealth, because the game is rigged against poor people so that rich people can steal the value of their time and labor.
He must not have worked hard enough.

too big to fail
That's a good point, it's just as likely (to my cynical mind) that the U.S. govt would just bail them out to the tune of hundreds of billions

TIL about the 'River' effect in typography
Reply in thread
The thing that normal people don't worry about is "readability." Bad type is harder to read, for example rivers are distracting. Turning black marks on paper into concept, metaphor, irony, narrative, setting should be as painless of a process as possible so that the most people possible have access to reading and information. Little details like letter and word spacing, font, typeface add up to something that is either easy or difficult to read.

I love the transformed R1 -> L1 -> L1 -> R1 combo. Jumping in and out of the action, its extremely fun. Did you ever go for the 99 arc build? I saw someone recommended it. There's def a certain order to do things, and its very CD heavy, especially once you start grinding arc scaling gems. I've done a few arc runthroughs and they are extremely fun. I just dusted off one of my 99 arc characters to do a fire stake driver run. Its...okay lol. Charged r2 + oil is extremely satisfying but hard to pull off

My first arc run I just used hunters tools basically, and was able to defeat every boss, + chalice dungeons basically with a call beyond spam. It is kinda boring, it's just like run away, acb, run away, blood bullets, run away, heal.
The last couple arc runs I actually try to gem up my weapons and play it straight, using hunter tools as support. This I find to be a lot more satisfying. I think as the other poster said, the fire gig saw is a terror to beasts. Also the parasite is so good its broken, especially in CDs, very fun. At that point, just need a bolt weapon for kin type enemies and you can take on anything. Admittedly, is performance much different than a dex or quality build? Eh maybe a little? Playstyle is a little different. But the path through the game is very particular in order to stay strong enough with arc weapons, so it's kind of a different adventure than pumping points into stats. The CDs are no longer optional, since you have to hunt for and grind gems.
Ever play with the blood letter? I procrastinated playing with it for so long, but once I got the hang of it I did 3 playthroughs in a row with it. Very fun, and having to manage frenzy buildup adds a wrinkle to gameplay. With the cannon, its ridiculous!

I would say the BL is pretty unique. The regular form has a pretty decent move set, maybe like the tonitrus or 1h axe, nothing surprising there. But the tricked form has so many neat mechanics. When going to tricked form for example, you stab yourself with it to transform, which takes a section of your health. But when used in a combo, you turn around and stab the enemy through yourself, using their blood instead of yours so that you lose only a tiny sliver of health on transform. Its pretty wild. It has surprisingly good dodge attacks too, it attacks really quickly for a larger weapon and has a long reach similar to the axe.

It is a lot of variety! The dex weapons are amazing. But to me, each weapon is practically its own game. Enjoy!

It was more a comment about people who tend to post this meme as if it were true, who constantly wail and moan about Western civilization. But thanks for checking in, jokes are funnier when I have to explain them.
