Seriously, how long before Tesla gets kicked out of the S&P? You have to have an independent board to be in the S&P.
So, TL/DR: Tesla is cutting 20% of its workforce to save money, but also spending money by paying Musk to advertize to Tesla shareholders on Twitter to vote to give Musk $55B in stock.

Man, I can't tell why the judge ruled that the board wasn't independent!
Tesla has now disclosed that it is spending money to promote its shareholders vote to approve of Elon Muskโs $55...

I hear judges really like it when you try to pull something like this. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ

Treasury shares are shares owned by the company. How can Musk own treasury shares? Also, they're nonvoting.
Yeah, but said enablers are probably going to be giving it back to him and said funds not stopping it. :ร
These will be fun. I expect them to be, eg.: mockingly over top; to contain hidden messages; to be written in Arabic; written on photos of war crimes; etc, etc.

He has according to the latest SEC filing, 715,022,706 shares, or 20,5%.
His stock options were overturned by a Delaware court.
He owns a majority of voting shares in all the others. The only way he could lose those is if his finances were hurt so much that he had to sell off his controlling stakes.
The only one he's capable of getting kicked out of is Tesla.
Main reason he doesn't is a combination of (A) his 20% of the stock, (B) a horde of retail enablers, (C) many large funds have policies to not vote their stock, and (D) others may be nervous about how the market would react.
Show him a photo of a trans protester at a college wearing a keffiyeh and an "Immigrants Welcome!" T-shirt and a Biden campaign button and holding up a sign that says "Stop Getting High, Start Getting Woke! #HitTheStreets".
That should do the trick ;)
But you can't fire Shoigu!

Yes. Internet isn't a meaningful cost, but power is. Depends on your rate. Probably don't want to rent out your GPU if you're in a place with expensive power.
Just to add to this thread from yesterday: here's a Hydnora flower that's been cut in half. :) I just love these weirdos.

My favourite holoparasites (true parasites), aesthetically, are Hydnora sp. They really look like aliens!
And of course, if anyone starts to catch on, he starts trying to manipulate the rest of the party into turning on that person. ;)
Basically, the character's only actual skills (charlatan background) would be in linguistics and persuasion, and most of roleplay would be about gaslighting the party into thinking that they didn't see things that they actually saw, and coming up for excuses for the character's odd behavior ;)
E.g. so is always prominently and insistently calling everyone "FRIEND!" to try to get the mimic to not eat them (& still has to roll it), & everyone rolls perception in combat to see if they noticed the mimic attacking.
I haven't played in ages, but should I get the chance, I'd love to play a legendary ranger who's renowned throughout the land... but is actually a total fraud. But he speaks mimic, and made a deal with a powerful mimic to pretend to be his armour & fight for him in exchange for getting the corpses.
Tavern keeper: "Mimics? Not in this kingdom, my dear fellows!"
He laughs.
The party laughs.
The table laughs.
The party attacks the table.

Yeah, they'd have checks on their power if they weren't surrounded by enablers.
GPU rental is where it's at. Even renting out a consumer card like 1x 4090 will net you ~$0,40/hr. A lot better than 2,5 cents!
I asked myself the same thing over and over for years. Illegal taxi service pretending it's "ride sharing" and doing an endless stream of scumbag tactics.
Justifiable. So stupid why she won, and everbody knows it.
Let's not kid ourselves, it's *almost all bits* ;)
The movie Eurovision really had a challenge for themselves, because how do you do an over-the-top parody of a competition that's an over-the-top parody of itself every year?
Nah, the political stuff is part of what makes it great. :) You often start out more focused on who you *hate* and *don't* want to win; faves develop later.
And it's a truly immense spectacle with high production values. To get a sense of the quality:

That said, Australia still is a special case, as it's only an "associated member" light blue.
Well, it's easy for someone on a fed's salary to not have to worry about monetization.... ;)
Yep, Amorphophallus titanum. :) BTW, some Amorphophallus spevies are grown for their edible corms -look up konjac for the most common example. :)
Probably Amorphophallus, not Rafflesia :) The former isn't parasitic. It's an aroid, like monstera and philodendrons. Which *itself* is a really cool group of plants! Thread:

1/ Aroids (family Araceae) are well known due to their dramatic tropical aesthetic - from houseplants like Philodendron & Monstera to the monstrous Titan arum (Amorphophallus) "corpse flower".
But when they bloom, something interesting happens!
