DISPROVEN: Okay so I just contacted the retailer’s Customer Support, and they said that it’s just their guess. And dissed Reddit.
The whole conversation 👇

Republican influencers are currently spending the weekend rummaging through a murdered woman’s Venmo, trying to post-hoc justify an ICE agent unloading bullets into a mother’s face.

Just a heinous level of moral depravity.

[HUMAN WA$TE @Dplanet]

🚨🇺🇸 So, let me get this right, an ICE agent - who probably has PTSD after being run over by a vehicle (and arguably shouldn’t be on active duty) - ignored DHS rules of engagement, and needlessly put himself in front of a vehicle (while distracted by being on his phone filming) after his colleague told the driver to “Get out of here”. And then, after carelessly putting himself in harm’s way, he broke DHS rules for the second time by opening fire on the victim, despite the victim reversing to make space, then clearly turning hard right to avoid him. And the Vice President is blaming the victim? This is gaslighting at the highest level. America is not a safe place.

Credit card rates are governed by the National Bank Act, which lets nationally chartered banks charge interest based on the rules of their home state. That’s why so much credit card lending runs through places like Delaware and South Dakota. That setup was locked in by the 1978 Supreme Court case Marquette v. First of Omaha, which basically said banks can export their home state rate nationwide. A president can’t override that by executive order.

An executive order could tell agencies like the CFPB, OCC, FDIC, and even the Federal Reserve to study the issue, tighten supervision, or lean on banks through enforcement and exams. But without Congress changing the law, usually by amending the Truth in Lending Act or the National Bank Act itself..a hard 10% cap wouldn’t legally stick and would almost certainly get challenged in court.

That said, pressure still matters. Banks care deeply about regulatory heat and public optics. When a president is openly calling 20–30% APRs a rip off, regulators start asking questions, headlines turn ugly, and banks start managing risk. You probably don’t get a clean 10% cap, but you can see behavior shift at the margins with more promo rates, lower APRs for prime customers, expanded hardship programs, fee tweaks, or quieter changes meant to avoid looking predatory.

So he’s basically setting an anchor. A simple number people instantly understand. It reframes the issue from abstract rates or monetary policy to “banks are gouging consumers,” which plays well when households are under pressure. More importantly, it signals to banks that this could become real legislation if the economy weakens and Congress feels forced to act.

So i believe this is less about the mechanics of law and more about leverage and timing. Credit cards are the most visible consumer pain point. He’s planting a flag there early. If Congress moves, he claims the win. If banks preemptively adjust, he still claims success. And if nothing changes, he still owns the narrative. That’s the real play.

Elon Musk’s entire feed now consists of him alternating between white supremacist posts, calls for violent insurrections across Europe and retweets of disturbing garbage made with Grok. You can literally watch this man descend into total madness on his feed, in real time.

These are the "independent journalists" Elon wants you to follow instead of real journalists.

While waiting for a 'weather window' for a release (a forecast of 5C or above at night for 5 consecutive days) darling baby Poe has got fed up waiting and has hibernated here.
Because he has decided he is ready.
In the hospital where food and water is available 24/7, and the temperature is kept at 15C.
You'll find many books from so-called hedgehog experts that will tell you that hibernation depends on cold temperatures, or lack of food, etc.
Just know that hedgehogs don't read those books.😁

When Marimar Martinez was shot, DHS said she was brandishing a weapon & ramming vehicles

The agent shot her FIVE times

Bodycam footage revealed no weapon (it was holstered in passenger seat) and no ramming.

The agent bragged about how many holes he put in her & fled the state

Update: ICE has denied the members their due right to conduct oversight

Michael Burry : The secret to Google search was always how cheap it was, so that informational searches that were not monetizable (and make up 80% or more) did not pile up as losses for the company. I think this is the fundamental problem with generative AI and LLMs today—they are so expensive. It is hard to understand what the profit model is, or what any one model’s competitive advantage will be—will it be able to charge more, or run cheaper?
Perhaps Google will be the one that can run cheapest in the end, and will win the commodity economy that this becomes.

Now that you see where his legs were, the first bullet hole through the windshield is easy to understand. He shot the windshield at an angle from around the wheel well. In the video, we can see her turning the wheel hard away from him, so he could see that too.

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

The second and third shots absolutely came from the side. But the *first* shot also came from off to the side. Here are the two frames that should end this conversation for anybody who is honest.

If he was in front of the car when he fired the first shot, you wouldn't be able to see his legs, but you can:

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

I don't know why this Steam Machine pricing rumour is gaining traction because Valve DOES NOT sell their hardware through third party retailers in Europe.
There is no way for this Czech store to know its price before anyone else.
