sushid··on Viagra improves brain blood flow and could help to prevent dementia
It's common to have a 1 hour running or a lifting session 3-4 times a week but kudos to you and/or my condolences to your partner if your vigorous exercise lasts that long every time.

> The Zeekr 007 was tested amid a reporting trip to the Beijing Auto Show, where Geely provided travel and lodging.

Unfortunately, it looks like they didn't pay enough to cover a proofreading.

sushid··on Nvidia announces financial results for first quarter fiscal 2025
Honestly, this post reeks of a barber giving stock advice to me.
sushid··on Tesla bought over $2M worth of Lidar from Luminar
100% revenue != valuation of company if that's what you're implying.
sushid··on Cold brew coffee in 3 minutes using acoustic cavitation
I'm a coffee snob and I can respect your preferences but have you considered non-coffee alternatives? Japanese and Chinese tea culture can be fun to delve into and tea would probably be easier on your stomach.
sushid··on 'Pacifist' Japan is tooling up for war
So it brokered a protection deal in exchange for nuclear weapons and then... reneged on its promise?
sushid··on Japanese police arrest man for tampering with Pokémon Violet save data
Japan doesn’t have an affordable housing issue. How is the police supposed to solve for this or any of your other problems anyway?

Unless you’re insinuating that because Japan is a low crime country it doesn’t need a police force?

sushid··on Robinhood's new, attractive and expensive credit card
There's nothing of substance in this article. Robinhood, for instance, can easily cap the 3% limit. Companies also always adjust their uninvested balance APY. If the fed drops the rate, so will RH's.
sushid··on Why Is Panera Exempted from California's New Minimum Wage Law?
> I believe any minimum wage policies are terrible

Any? You barely have to peruse a history book to see countless examples of exploitative labor processes.

sushid··on Two Ethereum DeFi traders just made $120M using a strategy called 'looping'
What do you think leveraging is? You are using your deposit (ETH) to increase exposure to an asset (more ETH). The process is just more manual compared to a traditional market because crypto.
sushid··on Two Ethereum DeFi traders just made $120M using a strategy called 'looping'
Yes it's literally just leveraging
sushid··on I Was Illegally Fired by Amazon for Speaking Out About a Coworker's Death (2023)
It truly depends within CA. San Diego or suburbs of LA? It's pristine. Bay Area? The roads flood with the slightest bit of rain and have potholes the size of a basketball.
sushid··on YouTube and Spotify won't launch Apple Vision Pro apps, joining Netflix
Not sure why you're multiplying trade volume with their share price? It's a stupid scenario to think of, but the offer would be some combination of cash and shares they own, not newly printed shares out of the blue.

And if they did print more shares, how would it "tank their share price to 0"? It's not like a stupid acquisition would instantly vaporize a 2+ trillion market cap company overnight.

sushid··on Contra Wirecutter on the IKEA air purifier (2022)
That's the impression I get from Wirecutter. They're not unethical per se, but these reviewers appear to have picked up a task from their long list of products to reviews and have done the bare minimum at best.
sushid··on A battery has replaced Hawaii's last coal plant
I thought it couldn't get worse and then I saw my parents' San Diego electricity bills. It seems like whatever CA is doing/has done is really screwing its residents.
sushid··on Rising costs mean food companies are making snacks, sodas taste worse
Flat coke 33% of the time seems hard to believe. Where do you live? Coke has hundreds of bottling partners worldwide and they only distribute the syrup to these bottling plants.
sushid··on Cybertruck Launch
While I appreciate the unique design of the Cybertruck, I have a huge concern with its huge size and the potential safety risks for pedestrians.

The trend of increasingly larger vehicles, like SUVs and trucks, has already raised issues regarding pedestrian safety. The Cybertruck, being notably larger than most contemporary cars in the same category, could exacerbate this problem, especially if it opens the door to similar designs in new market segments IMO.

sushid··on X May Lose Up to $75M in Revenue as More Advertisers Pull Out
You just described what ad companies have been doing since the early 2000s...
sushid··on Gabe Newell forced to testify in person in Steam antitrust case [pdf]
I mean the simple reply to that is: por que no los dos? Steam getting hit with an antitrust suit and losing could also pave the way for Apple and Google being forced to reduce their extortive rates.
sushid··on U.S. states sue Instagram owner for making social media addictive to kids
So shouldn't countries and states introduce measures to restrict access to Instagram? Not sue them outright?
sushid··on YouTube crackdown leads to ‘hundreds of thousands’ of ad blocker uninstalls
How are you being extorted? Who is forcing you to watch Youtube videos?
sushid··on YouTube crackdown leads to ‘hundreds of thousands’ of ad blocker uninstalls
You might have just been in a small holdback group. Not getting the same experience as others doesn't always mean it was an accident on their part.
sushid··on Two hackers one keyboard two ways
Completely unnecessary. Why didn't they just turn off the monitor? /s
sushid··on How to find a lost phone in a no-cell-coverage camping site?
You might as well as gift it directly to the police officer's kid if you're going to do that.
sushid··on How to find a lost phone in a no-cell-coverage camping site?
You're looking at it from a single transaction cost-benefit perspective but that's not how it works societally. If everyone in the society knew that cops will be in their front door steps with a warrant every time a phone or a laptop was stolen, they're not going to be stealing them from the get-go.

So to translate, there may be a high up front cost but the return on invest will outweigh in the long run (for higher value products, admittedly). Even if that's not the case, you're not valuing the societal cost at all!

sushid··on Common fungus candida albicans might fuel Alzheimer's onset
If it would be possible, could you provide us more insight into her supplement protocol? Would you recommend Candex or Undecylenic Acid or anything else?
sushid··on Toyota adopts the North American charging standard
No one is saying that the US didn't benefit from Tesla's existence. But saying that Tesla was not subsidized or profited from government intervention is wholly untrue.
sushid··on Trucking startup Convoy closes operations with no buyer
I didn't realize wanting healthcare while getting let go from a company I worked for was desiring to be "coddled."
sushid··on Atlassian Acquires Loom
Why are they underwater? The "value" of their options would have been the preferred share - common share price. So it would have been a fat haircut but likely still netted them some number > common share price, no?
sushid··on Atlassian Acquires Loom
Not nothing, just a fat haircut of ~40%, right?
