You know that number is entirely theoretical, right?

If he were to sell all of his stock tomorrow, it would tank the value immediately and he’d never get even close to half of that money (probably far less).

How do people like that remember how to breathe?

That doesn’t mean they don’t have any fans. In fact, that’s frequently all they have.

I think you missed the joke there buddy.

Yes, of course she was advised by some pretty smart people. But at the end of the day, she had the product they needed to sell.

Can someone please convert that into avocado toasts for me?

IDK bro, I see stuff at the grocery store for half off all the time because it’s close to expiry

Pretty sure the majority of J Lo’s wealth comes from her assets, not education

In other words, compared to that whiskey, the $30 bottle of wine below looks like an absolute bargain

Yeah…

Oreo has a protein bar. Kraft has protein mac and cheese.

Pfft. At my grocery store, they’re selling protein water and protein soda these days.

A 2015 model is definitely going to be Intel, that was the only thing they made at the time

Apple is a publicly traded company as well, which means they have the same incentives, but they do the exact opposite, having frequently broken backwards compatibility in major ways in order to make massive structural changes, like moving to an entirely different processor architecture not once, not twice, but three times now, and often breaking backwards compatibility in major ways in order to reduce bloat.

This is more likely a cultural issue than a technical one. Basically, both companies practice very different philosophies when it comes to engineering decisions. Of course, a major reason why Apple can do this while Microsoft can’t is the fact that Apple makes their own hardware, while Microsoft doesn’t.

I mean… unless you can find a theater that specifically caters to Chinese audiences, like others suggested, I can’t really think of any other alternatives. I’m sure you can understand that it’s pretty difficult for regular theaters to cater to every foreign audience because the entire screen would be full of subtitles, or they’d have to have 50 different screenings a week, with Chinese being shown at 10am on a Wednesday.

Wait until the movie is out on streaming services (or DVD/BluRay) and then watch it with subtitles at home?

If you’re American and cannot find Rakija, whiskey will also work. The cheaper, the better.

Just use a cool nature video as your desktop background instead? Pretty sure that’s possible on most systems nowadays. MacOS actually does this by default already.

Just use your smartphone to call him then.

So your use case is having your desktop show a live view of what’s on the other side of the screen to make it appear transparent? Okay.

What if it’s just your desk and the wall behind it?

What’s on the other side of the screen that would possibly be worth taking a picture or video of? Unless you’re in public, I guess, in which case — creepy.

Plus, consider that a laptop screen is usually angled backwards so the camera would be pointed towards the ground unless it’s also rotatable, which means extra moving parts (i.e. things that could break).

I honestly can’t think of any scenario in which this would actually be useful.
