My highschool days. Wouldn’t change a thing either, except I wouldn’t start smoking cigarettes.

Last hint, this is the one Spade film with him as the lead that virtually everyone loves.

Milken’s worth is stagnant - he can’t play stocks. In the 80s Milken had what the wealthy always want, power. He doesn’t have it now. 6 billion is what he’s worth and that’s a long long way below the likes of Elon Musk. Had Milken never been convicted he would’ve kept growing like Elon did.

You’re missing my point. I’m not saying these guys are put into the same kind of financial distress the rest of us are when the car breaks down. They’re still the top 1%. And that’s fine with me, there’s always going to be a top 1%. It’s the “beyond” that concerns me, when they have enough money that it no longer matters when they lose. Milken, Madoff, they all had that much at one point and then they lost. They lost the thing they craved, the power. They might still be rich but they know better than anyone that wealth without power is just an appetizer. They want a seat at the table and getting removed from the SEC is paramount to being told they aren’t dressed well enough to eat in the restaurant.

Removing his ability to play stocks at all is removing his ability to earn money. His investors will leave him and the interest on his loans will liquidate him. We’ve seen more than a few of his type flash up and fade away. Milken. Pickens. Belfort. And of course, Madoff. Just to name a few we know by a single name.

He would still be wealthier than 99.99% of people but then so are a lot of folks on the planet. That’s 80 million people left over in that .01%. That’s not all that powerful at all. It’s removing him from the .00001% thats the goal. And killing his stock market abilities would do that over-night. It’s why he bought Twitter, he had to because this was the alternative.

Kinda… depends on how things got him there. The thing Elon can’t lose without really going off the rails is his ability to play the markets. Once the SEC kicks him out you’ll see him legitimately calling for open revolt.

Ego = the self from its own perspective. Makes complete sense actually. But do they call third person games “superego games”?

Play harder difficulties?

Nah there’s no wizardry here. The game itself is actually very simple in terms of processing. You only see maybe a dozen enemies at once, if that, ever, and whenever you do its in a locked arena area. A tiny arena even.

As FPS games go, Doom is wildly simplistic, which makes it that much more impressive that it’s as fun and repayable as it is. I personally thought the narrative actually managed to carry a lot of that weight (i loved the story) but it was also the gameplay itself - they did a superb job making the player actually learn the guns and why you’d use each one, rather than just letting them have a favorite.

Don’t get me wrong though, I don’t mean to belittle them. Doom is a chefs egg. Every cook can make an egg, but making a perfect egg every time is something that takes the mastery of a chef. Id is very much the chef in the analogy.

David Spade…

Swing and a miss.

I’ll give you a more direct hint about the context: “You do” implies someone said that I [verb] something. But I say that in response to someone calling me [an adjective], which doesn’t make sense.

You do!

[in response to my wife calling me stupid]

New? Never left. Piracy is mainstream. People stream things all day from all kinds of shady streaming sites, but they get to watch what they want.

Just be an American trying to watch Australian television. Pain in the ass to find anywhere but my wife finds stream links on Facebook – Piracy is mainstream.

Which by the way, if you ever enjoyed the show Survivor, Australian Survivor is actually better. It’s my guilty pleasure. Australian Survivor is on a whole other level.
