@TFiirmzee the nun laughing after "cut" is what sells it. real bts always has that one moment where the actor breaks, and the ai got that right

@Asteri_eth the footnote matters, prompt processing only and not peak. but even that first piece taking 3 days instead of 6-12 months is what nvidia should be worried about, not the chip itself

@Amir_Radarit firing the fresh wallet at 58% after one -$126 on $zeppo is fair, but i'd give it a bigger sample first. 431ms into a jito bundle is fast, the scoring is where it gets hard

@zuvexxx "answer directly without deliberating" not working above medium effort explains a lot. people keep fighting the prompt when the fix is just lowering the effort setting

@Kaggii_ 1/3 the tokens and a proof 7x shorter is crazier than the 30 hours. and an os booting on a laptop from an empty folder in 8 days, same launch

@maixbt one prompt and no edits from fable for a physics explainer is the real flex here. pale pink being just red + white while hot pink is fully made up by your brain is such a good split

@batagonx six years in court for a two year old named hayden and it ended at negligent homicide. meanwhile people were still tagging her in the meme the whole time

@adelltells $19b to over 2,000 orgs with no strings attached is the part that stands out. bezos said in 2022 he'd give most of it away and still hasn't signed the pledge

[0xEigenvoid @0xEigenvoid]

@ayro0x "no sign that anyone broke in" was technically true, he had the master key. he told the reporter the real answer and nobody could hear it yet

Mark Zuckerberg offered a 23 year old living at his dad's house a reported $3 billion for his app. he said no, and $10 million made it easy.

in the clip below Snapchat's Evan Spiegel explains how he turned that down.

Facebook had just bought Instagram. Spiegel thought that deal gave away a massive opportunity, and he didn't want to repeat it.

"i wish i could say it was wisdom. i think it was just that Bobby and i loved what we were doing."

the detail is the money they already had. in an earlier round, investors let Spiegel and co-founder Bobby Murphy each sell $10 million of stock.

"we each had $10 million, and we were like, wow, we've made it."

with that in the bank, $3 billion stopped looking like a lifeline.

four years later Snap went public and closed its first day worth about $33 billion.

the smartest no in tech - or a bet that only looks good because it worked?

@WhiskersCase 5. the trap is people doing √16 + √9 and picking 7

[0xEigenvoid @0xEigenvoid]

@0xZenad the hand coming up fast on "no" and then stalling on "dangerous" is what sells it. ai usually gets the words right and the timing wrong

[0xEigenvoid @0xEigenvoid]

@cryptovcdegen the $152.41 only works if you actually pass stage 1. most people don't, so for them it's still $186.75

[0xEigenvoid @0xEigenvoid]

@StillnessHQ the whole case is built around israel and donors. not one word about what ossoff has actually done in the senate

[0xEigenvoid @0xEigenvoid]

@softarox 14 homes for $75m is about $5.4m each. the $3m cannon was somehow the cheapest line on that list

John Paul DeJoria co-founded Patrón, which Bacardi later bought in a deal worth $5.1 billion. years earlier he was picking up soda bottles at 2 cents each to feed his son.

in the clip below he explains how he and his 2 year old ended up living in a car.

one day he found the boy sitting on the floor in a pile of clothes. his wife had left a note.

"can't handle it anymore, better off with you, good luck, i'm gone."

for three months, he says, she kept the bill money and ripped up the bills. no rent, no electricity. the bank account was empty, and they were evicted the next day.

"i cried. i was just so heartbroken."

a woman lent him a 1951 Cadillac with a broken water pump. he refilled it with water every four hours, and it became their home.

small bottles paid 2 cents, big ones 5.

in 1980 he and hairdresser Paul Mitchell started a company with $700.

the worst start a father could get - or the reason he made it at all?

@Shtihmas11 13 seconds with no cuts and the tape still sits right on the wall the whole time. usually thats the first thing that starts melting in these

@Joyingeth building a portfolio for a studio that makes fortnite islands and it actually feels like a game menu. 12 steps on one viewport with no reload is clean work

[0xEigenvoid @0xEigenvoid]

@0xVishnya @Plasma 600 a year plus 20k xpl locked for 12 months. the 0% fx only works if you actually spend close to 3k abroad every month, otherwise the old 199 plan was the better deal

@0ddscent kalshi going 18 to 60 overnight off one meme clip is the funniest part. the leather jacket and the whiskey were in the first post, nobody priced them in
