Budokai Tenkaichi 2 had a cool what-if scenario with Raditz where he loses some of his memory after coming to Earth and has a happy relationship with Goku and Gohan. Meaning Goku never dies and trains with King Kai, and culminates with Raditz sacrificing himself by crashing into Vegeta and Nappa's ships in space to save the Earth

Trump is easily the least Christian president in US history. Not that being more or less Christian is a good thing. But he doesn't even know how to pretend to care about it very much. Dude doesn't know a single thing about the bible

Marle is the worst party member and becomes obsolete once you get more than 3 members. She is the Mallow of the game
Haste is a really good status effect. Basically doubles a character's DPS and it lasts a really, really long time in Chrono Trigger. The only thing that cuts her and the spell's usefulness down a bit is the Haste Helm in the final dungeon.

It is sad and perplexing that Marle doesn't get her own heal-all spell though.

There's also nothing stopping you from opening accounts at more than one brokerage.
This is true and an often overlooked point I think... Some people say things like "Brokerage X has excellent tools you can use" but you can just make an account with no money it it to use tools like that if you wanted. And there's free tools all over the internet anyway.

But a minor point of multiple brokerages, it should be warned that when you transfer all of your assets from one broker to another (without just selling and rebuying everything obviously), the old broker often makes you pay a fee to do the asset transfer. So someone might save a little bit of change making sure they pick a good one the first time. Sometimes the new brokerage will front the fee for you. Robinhood, for example, fronts fees from incoming transfers in my experience. When I later transferred my things from Robinhood to Schwab they charged a $50 fee, which Schwab covered after I called them and asked. Some brokers might not be nice though.

For regular person investing, any of Charles Schwab, Vanguard, or Fidelity are great. There's very little difference among them aside from their website/app's user interfaces. But they all have little to no fees and expense ratios in their offered funds. Vanguard gets a lot of love in particular because the company's founder Jack Bogle is probably the only pure-hearted person who's ever lived in the world of finance and he's largely responsible for popularizing low-fee index fund investing. He deliberately structured Vanguard such that the company is directly owned by the customers who buy Vanguard funds, thus the company has an obvious incentive to not screw over customers in any way. In comparison, Fidelity is privately owned, and Charles Schwab is publically traded.

One thing about Vanguard is their user interface on their website does really suck though. Schwab's website I think is the best, and I think Schwab's checking account is pretty good too.

If you want to daytrade / gamble with stocks then I dunno, maybe you want another brokerage where they let you transfer money in and out immediately - as the GameStop situation has a lot of investors complaining about. I'm not going to tell someone what they should or shouldn't do with their own money but investing is a zero-sum game and so I think for most regular people daytrading won't end well. There's people a lot smarter than you and me with PhD's and bloomberg terminals who you're competing against in the best case, or people who just have insider information in the worst case.

Kuuko
02/02/21 6:34:45 PM
#25
There's a lot of popular anime I don't like but I can see it's just not really for me. But in my opinion the most objectively bad anime that a lot of people still like is probably Guilty Crown. The plot is so terrible and nonsensical and not in a "so bad it's good" kind of way. And it somehow continually doubles down on incoherent plot developments as it stretches on. Plus a main character who almost seems deliberately annoying and unlikeable throughout the entire show and makes you want to cheer against whatever he's doing.

This.

Call the brokerage your account was with and ask them about your account. Your best bet now is to roll your 401k into an IRA at a brokerage of your choosing, which will let you keep all of your existing money and likely give you even more control over what you'd like to do with it than you had with your 401k before.

It's been proven that the guy with the horned hat and painted face is a radical right-winger, definitely NOT Antifa. But the jury's still out for the bearded guy, based on what I understand so far.
No, that image is disinformation. And very deliberate disinformation considering how it very conveniently left in that antifa website in the image but didn't give more detail on how it's mentioned on that antifa website. They're all Trump supporters.

https://factcheck.afp.com/trump-supporters-not-antifa-were-behind-us-capitol-chaos

The image on the left in Woods tweet shows a bearded man whom AFP photographed inside the US Capitol on January 6. His identity is unclear. The one on the right pictures a man with a similar appearance above a link to the phillyantifa.org blog, posts on which detail information about right-wing opponents.

The blog does include the photo on the right, but not because the man is affiliated with Antifa.
Rather, the image appears in a September 2018 post identifying him as Jason Tankersley, whom it describes as the founder of Maryland Skinheads and a longtime neo-nazi who, in the past few years, has attempted to rehabilitate his image.

CommunismFTW posted...
I hate to say it but can anyone sketch me out a timeline? I had limited internet and no people access the last two days. Was sick and off work, just mellowing out at home. I obviously get the full extend of the capitol building attack but

1: What did Trump say to incite the riots/cause talks of the 25th and impeachment? I missed that.
2: Where has he been since the attack? Has he made a speech addressing it?
3: Is it the 20th yet?
Well the full incitement obviously goes back to mid-November where he and Giuliani and Trump Jr. and others explicitly said that Trump supporting patriots need to go to war and fight to take the election back. But as far as yesterday's events go it was like:

  • Trump organizes a rally of thousands of Trump supporters in DC. Gives a speech about how Mike Pence and Congress are currently stealing the election and Trump supporters need to fight like hell to stop it. Orders the rally-goers to march toward the Capitol building right now to stop it.
  • Obviously the rally-goers do go to the building as Trump told them to and then storm inside. Capitol police for some reason are completely unprepared. Mike Pence and Congress are evacuated and staffers barricade themselves in offices. Some Trump supporters place pipe bombs around the area and one supporter is shot by police during the break-in.
  • Trump advisors reportedly beg Trump to say something to stop the violence. Trump releases a 1-minute video now deleted by Twitter where he calls them Patriots who are completely right and the election is still stolen, says he loves them all, and tells them they can go home now but they should remember this day.

I think there's a decent chance at least one cabinet member might not be in DC at any given time so it'd be them. But yeah this is a legitimate criticism of the line of succession I've seen raised since all the people mentioned in the line only matter if the people ahead of them are somehow all killed at the same time as each other. And if that happened then probably a lot of the other people mentioned in the line of succession might be in the same vicinity.

Then immediately afterward The Mandalorian releases to wide acclaim. It turns out people just like Star Wars things when they're good and don't really like Star Wars things when they're mediocre.
