With this market, probably will drop


AH volume spiked and looks like lots of profit taking now. Probably the people who bought NVDA at $185 thinking it would be $250 by now. Just nuts.

Nvidia, man. What a crazy story. They kind of lucked into this position they are in.

I got a personalized email w/link to vote from Fidelity, 'personalized' meaning I can't forward it to anyone else. When I go back to the link again, it states I have already voted.

You can vote at proxyvote.com but you need your control number first. Your broker should be able to give that to you.
The fact they have a small camera crew tells you all you need to know about their motives.

This makes me irrationally angry at the NCAA. They really do still have a hard-on for OU :angry:
Full disclosure, I have no experience with AI stock pickers. I think its usage would depend on what you're wanting to accomplish.

AI can very confidently give you a wrong answer to a complex question. And with the market being a big ball of human emotion and institutional influence, I wouldn't trust AI explicitly. Curious though to hear how it goes if you try it.

I in no way vouch for Kevin Bambrough's posted information on X or anywhere else.


Too late, buddy. I already bet the farm, now you're on the hook :lol:

We've all seen what can happen when an opportunity with 'fantastic potential' presents itself. Its hard not to think this could be another grass-roots effort to pump a stock price and Bambrough's barking doesn't help. But I first got in at like 83 cents so anything above $6 would be the best gravy ever.
I know we started hot like this last year and its Coppin State, but I'm thinking there's something different about this team.. BOOMER

Check out ATI (good chance to be positively affected)

Agreed. A scalpal shouldn't have a public ip address. Medical equipment in a hospital can still be networked and not be on the public network or even available inline from any other points within the internal network.

Without going into too much detail: we got hit by the Akira ransomware group. How they got an 'in' was the most surreptitious, random set of circumstances you could imagine, part of which was a seemingly minute failure on our IT org's part. We were saved from total annihilation by the fact we implemented zero-trust architecture about a year prior. The attackers couldn't get to anything valuable but they tried. There's a lot more to protection than "zero-trust" but that was a big factor.

There's nothing revolutionary about any of the attacks. This happened because people don't know what tf they're doing or maybe just don't give a shite.

I will mildly disagree, because some threat actors are on another level than others. What we found during forensics.. two things come to mind: they were able to do some things that, according to the industry, shouldn't be possible. Some of these state-sponsored actors have massive computing power at their disposal. And the sophistication with which they covered their tracks was highly impressive. Highly developed and very effective, as well as their encryption techniques.
Why are these dumbasses still trying to capitulate & cater to the troons?? Man they sure love their losing strategies.

What were you doing?

4 years into my IT career, in an experience-building phase. Worked for a couple ISPs and a IT certification training company.

quote:

What was your trajectory at the time?

This personally put some things into perspective. I was 2 years away from marrying someone who was not a good fit, wound up divorcing after 11 years. I wanted to get married because I was approaching 30 years old and thought "there is nothing more to life, I better get started on growing a family." I was learning how to make better decisions, and getting out of the purgatory I had built for myself for the prior 10 years of poor decisions. My career trajectory was taking off but I wanted more money, and later in 2000 an opportunity of a lifetime presented itself, which I jumped on and never looked back. Until just now :lol:
Crazy, almost unbelievable story about how he learned about his biological dad.

To boil it down: Deland was put up for adoption by his biological mother. She did not tell the biological father about the birth. Deland had a good upbringing by his adoptive parents, was recruited as a RB, and signed with Miami of Ohio due in large part because he was so impressed with the man who Deland's lead recruiter - RB coach Sherman Smith. Smith was a friend & mentor for Deland long after Smith left Miami to coach elsewhere and Deland's playing days were over. Smith gave Deland a coaching internship while he was coaching at Indiana, which jump-started his coaching career. Deland was searching for his biological dad at the time but he eventually learned his dad is Sherman Smith.
