re: Why does Intel seem to be the only tech stock not affected by these market swings

Intel stock dropped by over 60% in 2024 while the other stocks in the sector listed on NASDAQ rose by about 30%. It's priced about $15 per share lower than it was 5 years ago.
That's pretty volatile.

How?
A century+ ago women of desire looked like a bass fiddle, less on top, and lots on the bottom. What has changed?
That's because back then only the ultra-rich could afford to be fat. It means that they could afford good food and didn't have to do labor.
It wasn't physical desire, it was class desiribility.

Sorry to hear this brother, that's a pain that just can't be measured.
When you see your daughter again she'll appear in her perfect form in alignment with the lord, as you will to her, just as Jesus was after the resurrection. What that exactly that "glorious body" is, well we're just not supposed to know that yet.
Philippians 3:21 contains the promise that Jesus “will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.” After His resurrection, Jesus was recognizable for who He was. His body was transformed, but it was still His body. The same will hold true for us in the resurrection.

I honestly didn’t know Hershey didn’t use “real Chocolate” until this thread.
They've been using "coatings" that including palm oil and shea oil, to create fake "chocolatey" coatings. It's basically just cheap vegetable oil base with artificial chocolate flavoring.
Crazy to go cheap to that extreme considering their stuff isn't cheap at all.

re: Who do Alabamians root for more in the NFL: Saints or Falcons?
Posted by RolltidePA on 3/31/26 at 9:08 am to MizzouTrue
When I was in school there in the late 90's there were a ton of Cowboys fans, some Falcons fans and very few Saints fans and there were a few Steelers fans as well. The Saints at that point were still historically bad, and the Falcons only moderately better, so I thought the breakdown kind of made sense.
With the Titans moving and the profile of teams shifting, I'm sure it's much different now.

re: Trump taxpayers funded golf expense: $100 million in just over a year
Posted by RolltidePA on 3/30/26 at 12:28 pm to lsugorilla
"A HuffPost analysis has found that Trump's golf-related travel and security expenses"
I'm sure that HuffPost is privy to the costs of Trump's security detail and travel costs. They are truly known for their accuracy in reporting.
Obama played 40+ rounds a year as well, at courses he didn't own. They are people, not machines and are entitled to leisure time
I'll bitch a lot about how much government spends, but security costs for a president who has already had two assassination attempts (that we know of) isn't going to be where I lodge a complaint.
Also, just take the position that folks on the right used to take when Obama would golf. Just say "good, at least he's golfing and not out there f-ing things up for us."

If you looked at his game film, it's hard to argue. Since he was playing mostly hurt this year we have little to no idea what his true deep ball looks like. I'd like to think that it's much better that what he was showing most of the year.
re: How we feel about Greg Byrne?
Posted by RolltidePA on 3/25/26 at 2:41 pm to Vulcan Materials
Byrne is considered one of the best to do it by his peers. He's brought money in, managed the personalities and made good to great hires. If DeBoer didn't lose to Vanderbilt or Oklahoma in his first year he would have been considered a home run as well.
If he can somehow find a way to get a new basketball arena built, they should put a plaque with his name on the front of it.

On the men's side it would be a huge surprise if any of the teams advance to the round of eight.
The only win I wouldn't be surprised by is if Tennessee beats Iowa State. Iowa State was a monster at home but only .500 on the road. They played some tough road matchups, but still thats the only one where I wouldn't be completely surprised if it happened.
Michigan is a really bad matchup for Bama. I'd be stunned if they pulled that one off.

I don't know if there are any airframes left...don't think there are any in the boneyard. Carrier aircraft do get the crap beaten out of them between catapult launches and snagging wires while landing.
There is an estimated of 80 on display, but all have been stripped of components that would allow them to fly and any sort of avionics systems. The boneyard in Arizona only has a rough estimate of 10 left but most parts have been stripped for the ones on display and the rest were shredded.
In 2008 there was a parts embargo in place once because Iran was attempting to get parts for the planes through backchannel methods. That's when they decided to shred the fleet as well.
