Indices that don’t include spacex can still be effected. As the major indices have to make liquidity available to purchase SPCX, that will suppress the value of everything else in their baskets to some extent. So the indices not including SPCX may be immune to direct SPCX volatility, but they won’t be immune to all the effects of rapid inclusion.
No one said it was a love marriage.
Is there much of a resale market to recuperate some of the costs on modules you replace? I could see slower depreciation being part of an economic justification, but only if there’s a robust second hand parts market.
I wish inverter type microwaves were standard. The vast majority of residential microwave ovens only modulate on like a 10 second interval. So you put it on power setting 3 or 30 and it will pump out full power for 3 seconds then off for 7 seconds. This works for things like defrosting meat, but a bunch of foods will still start popping and drying out in those few seconds. Inverter microwaves modulate many times a second so they can warm much more fragile foods without searing them.
I’m surprised they have negative bouyancy with all that trapped air in their feathers.
They said a used car, not a new car.
The latest Moody’s Talks Inside Economics episode covers the jobs numbers well and talks about some of thr concerning figures that undermine the headline job growth. Of note: total hours are down and labor force participation are down despite job openings increasing.
They still serve personalized ads in the podcasts. They aren’t baked in.
I don’t see the stock price not moving as evidence of the bubble collapsing.
In Q4 2025 only 5.5% of NVidia’s revenue came from gaming products. That’s revenue not profit, their other products have better margins than gaming. Also Nvidia already has 95% marketshare in gaming gpu’s. So for them to grow more, they would have to increase the number of people gaming on PC or get into desktop cpu’s or get a bunch of people paying a subscription for access to more profitable cloud services gpus.
Really I just see the stock price not reacting as an acknowledgement that nvidia and nvidia shareholders don’t care at all about desktop gpu’s. It’s a vestigial appendage to what is now an AI hardware and networking company.
I’m an animal, Greg, can you track me?
It’s not even just the price of a ship and cargo at risk. Lead times are around 2.8 to 3 yrs for crude tankers and around 3.5 yrs for LNG carriers. That’s a long time to not be able to conduct business even if insurance did pay out. It is 100% rational to sit out a few weeks to figure out how to resume operations safely rather than trying to sneak through and hope for the best.
Berger is President Pro Tempore of the NC Senate and is the highest ranking member of the NC GOP. This is like John Thune getting primaried and losing.
Fix? No.
Focusing on ways to reduce neck and jaw tension has helped reduce the severity and hence disruptive force of mine though. Using a mouth guard at night helps my jaw tension and switching to a buckwheat pillow and posture improvements has helped my neck tension. Neck tension also frequently accumulates if I sit hunched forward and let my shoulders pull forward. Laying on my back on yoga mat with a small towel rolled up into a cylinder and lined up with my spine can help correct some of that. I will also sometimes run a pair of rubber lacrosse/massage balls up and down either side of my spine. I set them in place under me and scoot up down to roll them along my spine using my own weight to exert pressure. It hurts like crazy but releases tension more reliably than any stretch ever can.

Idk if he shot himself in the foot. His family gained billions in net worth, and he’s still not in prison.
They definitely hamstrung the rest of us though.
The install instructions for the clip on band has you cut the original pleather and foam off the band and peel away any adhesive. The irreversability of that made me nervous for no rational reason. So I opted for a cover similar to these ones from wicked cushions.

There also seems to be plenty of similar options on aliexpress.
It just zips on which is a suoer easy and quick install. I liked that I could just quickly try this before committing to a biggger repair. My only complaint is that the zipper pull dangles and that could be annoying. I used a dab of liquid electrical tape on where the pull meets the slider to prevent any rattling. An unexpected pro/con is that the silicone grips my hair more. That can be a slightly uncomfortable annoyance at times, but it does help the headphones stay in place better when laying down.
I already bought 3rd party replacement pads, but I’ll keep that trick in mind for the future.
Sony parts prices are insane. The urethane pleather on my headband started cracking on my xm4’s. A replacement headband was half the price of a new unit. So I ended up getting a silicone cover that will hopefully keep the pieces from flaking off into my hair. I also needed new earpads. Oem pads were around $40 for EACH side. The pleather just has a certain degradation time and once it hits, it all falls apart at the same time. Replacing all the pleather parts on my unit would have cost just as much as a new headset.
I hate having something designed to be somewhat repairable but practically speaking it isn’t due to pricing.
Can you give me a logical defense of:
Crockett is more qualified,
Crockett has 3 yrs in the Texas House and 3 years in the US House.
Talarico’s 8 yrs have been solely in the Texas House.
I think most people weight national legislative experience significantly higher than state legislative experience.
Plus Crockett has a demonstrated track record of getting national news coverage opposing Trump.
I’m really not looking to get into a debate though. I’m not a Texan and have only casually followed this race. They seem like remarkably comparable candidates overall. I just wanted to say that from the outsider’s perspective, Talarico seems to have a better chance in the generals.
This map convinces me of that. Even amongst the people voting in a dem primary, the rural people preferred the white church boy. Crockett is more qualified, but Talarico has a better chance of actually winning.
Fortunately, they were both good candidates.
Bad headline from the Guardian on this one.
There’s a big difference between evacuation readiness and evacuation.
There was a sudden, but not catastrophic increase in air loss from 1 pound per day to 2 pounds per day. Until the source of the loss increase is found, NASA doesn’t know if this is new damage such as from a micrometioroid impact or if existing damage is growing. Like a leaking dam, damage in weakened metal can grow rapidly without warning. So the astronauts not involved in the repair efforts are ordered to be ready for evacuation if the situation starts worsening rapidly.
I personally expect the source of the leak to be found and repaired without evacuation.
