Reply to comment by plumtastic in Queen Victoria's black mourning dress by qbak

My great aunt tried to tell me she was 5 feet tall. She said I had to be 5’5” because she was 5 feet tall. I am 5’2” if I stand up straight, and she was shrinking at 63 y.o. So, I hate to see what happened to people who wanted to argue with an actual queen about her height. (Edit: small typo)

Reply to ELI5: How does a DNR work? by HalloweenLover

A DNR is very specific medical orders. What you’re talking about is more vague than that. If you have a DNR they will NOT resuscitate you no matter the cause or opinions of the medical professionals. Your wish is to not be resuscitated medically and they honor that. Your heart stops and they can’t and won’t do anything. Based on your feelings you do Not want a DNR but should write up a living will and make instructions for your next of kin or whomever you want to have power over these decisions about what threshold you’re willing to go to and what you do or do not want them to do.

First: Revenue stopped growing:

'22: 418,933

'21: 464,700

'20: 406,785

'19: 297,897

Second: They have never made a profit

Depending on what you have paid for it, I would exit. If you paid $100+, it is too late, you may as well hold it to zero. If you recently bought it, I would sell immediately, before it goes down further.

My simple rule of investing: a corp needs to be either growing, or be profitable. If it is neither, it is dead.

Reply to Favorite director hot streak? by DeezThoughts

John McTiernan had a great action streak at the end of the 80s: Predator, Die Hard and The Hunt for Red October

Richard Donner had a couple of good streaks: The Omen, Superman, Superman II and then later The Goonies, Lethal Weapon and Scrooged.

Reply to Amazon must face California lawsuit claiming its prices are too high by dildobagginss

What's wrong with California? Seriously I have some dislike for Amazon. But you can't tell a private business how to do business.

Amazon has every right to tell a 3rd party seller. Hey if your offering your products at a lower price on a competitive website. You need to offer that same price on our site. And if you don't. Your not going to get full exposure.
