if you threw a baseball at .9c from a major league pitchers mound, it would still take more time to get to the batters box than the tick-to-trade of some hft firms

And if you did that, it’d also destroy everything in about a 100 mile radius.
So don’t do that.
What restaurant did you think was nice as a kid but when you became an adult realized it wasn’t that nice?…

Red Lobster.
At the time, it was by far the nicest and the priciest restaurant in my hometown. My grandparents took me there once as a kid and it was the most expensive meal I ate until I was in my 20s.
Politically and societally, a lot of people don’t want to believe that things are as broken as they are because if they did believe that then they’d have to do something about it.
That applies to many areas, including the pandemic and climate change. Common human failing there.
Tonight we are down to one vent for whole hospital. ICU capacity horrid. Death and sadness everywhere. Exhausted healthcare workers running on fumes eating just one meal daily. Non stop relentless work. ED holding ICU patients. Please #WearAMask

Funny how that “hoax” pandemic keeps filling up hospitals and morgues. How in the world does that happen.
I hate USB-C and everything to do with USB-C. It all works like such fucking garbage horseshit. It’s a huge step down in usability and capability.
My work laptop has USB-C ports only and nothing works right pretty much ever. And it requires a million dongles that also all don’t work.
USB-C is typical removal of control from the user to satisfy large corps.
