Is it a succession fortress?

This seems off. In the video nilered applied lye, sodium sulfite, and hydrogen peroxide in solution (completely submerging the wood pieces, not just brushing some hydrogen peroxide onto them) to remove the lignin and even then you could notice some brown color left in some of the pieces.

Plus they looked not nearly as transparent and much more cloudy than this:


That image doesn't even seem consistent with the image at the top:


The image at the top seems more cloudy. (And even then less cloudy than nilered's synthesis. And that guy went through a whole bunch of tweaks and methods.)

Though also nilered's synthesized pieces were 3mm thick and not 1mm...

Hey does anyone know where you could get a Xilinx-compatible USB-to-JTAG (6-pin JTAG) cable for cheap? The cheapest I've seen are like 30 dollars, whereas the Altera-compatible cable can be found for 5 dollars.

Like... there's apparently folks looking down the barrel of legal action specifically because of that, though, from what I understand? It actually does seem like a fair amount, if not all, of the GME rise did involve concentrated market manipulation.

It's pretty definite the big financial folks are largely coming away from this like bandits, in any case.

It's not. It's people talking about how they like the stock on a public forum. I also heard that the SEC is looking into this but that's completely wack given the real concerted manipulation happening by the hedge funds.

I've seen a sudden change in tone in the top-voted posts on r/wallstreetbets. First in the top-voted posts there was a bunch of DD, camaraderie, arguments and calls to hold even if it goes cheaper, statements about "sticking it to the man" and how it's not about money that much anymore, "not selling!", explanations of why the stock price seems like it's going down because the shorts were trading shares to each other for low prices to manipulate the apparent price (while the actual price the shorts would pay if they covered is much higher) -- paper thin volume, very strangely round-number orders, and the GME and AMC graphs being basically copies,  how the "silver craze" is actually manufactured by the media to try to pump the price of a commodity of which one of the hedge funds has a big stake in, and various memes about diamond hands and wives' boyfriends.

All of a sudden the top-voted posts changed to how the people who were still holding GME are suckers and idiots who didn't listen to sound advice, how this isn't a "movement" (completely contrary to what people were saying earlier) and it's just a bunch of greedy people trying to make a quick buck.

At the same time some new mods that were instated deleted some popular posts that were arguing to hold and were not very favorable to the hedge funds' position. And in "new" (so not top voted posts) there were many people talking about a coup of the sub. Also the sub member count seems to have skyrocketed to like 8 million recently. Hmm...

So yeah, it seems like the hedge funds have hijacked the sub with upvote bots for their own purposes. It makes me rather sad and angry.

Also just so you know, every media who was pushing "reddit traders are moving on to silver!" are either bought by hedge funds or gullible and irresponsible with their reporting. This includes obvious contenders like Business Insider, Fox Business, but also stuff like CNN.

x86 is sitting on intellectual property from the 70s lol. It stuck around this long because of backwards compatibility and prior baggage and experience working with it. ARM is a RISC architecture as opposed to x86 which is a CISC architecture so it's better suited for modern times' compiler and high-level-language-mostly world.

Also ARM doesn't make CPUs, it makes architectures. Other companies build CPUs for the architectures.

This is hilarious.
