Go to the landlord and provide your account of what is happening. Document as much as you can, and stop trying to figure out why they are so upset. You’re not going to discover some hidden rational explanation, nor is that your responsibility. Protect yourself.

Practically every single major pop music writer has faced a legal challenge. The more successful a song, the more people come out of the woodwork to cash in.

There are no new notes, no new chord progressions, no new rhythms, at least not in the mainstream. People love songs that sound vaguely like something else they already know, because those melodies and rhythms are associated with emotions already. So popular artists are constantly trying to make new songs that sound like songs people already like.

This is not a new phenomenon, and it’s why music trends all seem to congeal around a singularity until people get sick of it. It happens in all genres, even experimental music like jazz, dubstep, and screamo, where people try to push the limits of taste and art. Eventually patterns emerge and find the repeating cycle of success, saturation, and surfeit.

And sometimes that works out for lawyers who want to get paid.

In addition, there are plenty of kinds of information, technical or otherwise, that would be valuable for competitors like Tesla. Elon would be interested to know how production is going, how many employees are working each shift, what suppliers are making deliveries, how many cupholders they expect to put in each new model, etc. Corporate espionage is already a significant concern, and now the CIA works for the Nazi who owns Tesla.

Does it matter at all? Trump is compromised and is actively working for Putin. This is transparent and not being denied. Is there precedent for a puppet to do whatever he’s told by his master? Yes, lots.

Musk massively overpayed for Twitter. They wouldn’t have sold the company, but Musk made a ridiculous offer and they accepted. Then he tried to back out of it, and the court forced him to follow through. But he didn’t have enough money to match his offer, so he had to find some investors willing to bail him out because they wanted him to kill the platform for them.

When you ask them out, they say no.

Don’t waste mental energy looking for reason or competence. They did it because nobody can stop them, and they think they can gain money or power by doing it. That’s always the motivation, and it doesn’t make a difference to the response. We simply need to stop them.

Good point, no it won’t. You’re probably better off with a live-stream and remote recording for that. I wouldn’t trust a commercial app run on a public cloud service to protect your videos.

Depends on your setup and tech skill. Syncthing is my goto recommendation.

Whoa whoa whoa. Cocaine is way better than whiskey.

It doesn’t look like all the NSFW subs are banned yet, but it wouldn’t surprise me if that happens soon.

He’s not going to, which is why he didn’t mention it. He probably forgot he promised as soon as he said he would.

Which ocean? Do you care where you start and/or end your journey? Miami to Barcelona is going to be very different than Long Beach to Shanghai.

You can find some repositioning cruises for close to the price of a flight, but you’ll be in a shitty cabin and you would need to get to the departure port.

Yep this is really the only question that matters. Also, redditors call them “upvotes” not “likes.”

Elections and congress were built upon the idea of shame. As in, no one could possibly do that and still expect to be reelected. A felon with a fraud conviction and a history of naked nepotism isn’t going to ask people to donate money with a straight face.

No shit. He doesn’t have that kind of object permanence.

That’s basically psoriasis.

Stocks, and really anything, is worth exactly the intersection of what someone is willing to pay and what the person who has it is willing to accept. You can make valuations based on profits and growth and liabilities, but those are estimates to help professionals determine what they are willing to pay or accept. If some dolt is willing to pay more, then that’s what it is worth for that transaction.

If the stock goes up in value, some people will sell. There’s a natural balance to the curve, as the faster a stock rises, the more people will sell and this will bring the price back to earth. This is why the diamond hands strategy of Game Stop investors was so confounding. People weren’t buying for profit, they were buying to fuck over short selling hyenas. But that’s a whole nother can of worms.

The point is, if people believe it will go up, they will buy. More buyers means the price goes up, so that can have a compounding effect, and they feel good about their decision. When people think it’s gone high enough, they sell, which makes the price go down, and they feel good about their decision.

The stock market is as much paychology as it is economics. Precicting what humans will do and then doing it first is the real magic of investing. And with Muskeegee Airhead, there’s no way to predict what he will do. That’s why risk averse investors are moving away.

Some people truly believe in Musk and the brand. Those people are dipshits, but if you excluded dipshits from your market predictions, you would always be wrong.

But pension funds have a responsibility to go long, and while Tesla may rise or fall on Musk’s digital bowel movements, volatility is the problem.

Likely sock-puppets for oligarchs trying to prop up the stock value under the weight of sell-offs.
