I remember Sidney Poitier mostly from Shoot To Kill with Kirstie Alley.
Apparently one of the very few movies he did in the 80s.
It isn't exactly a very famous film but I remember it being pretty damn entertaining.
That sort of bad guy holding a hiking expert at gun point and making their way through harsh terrain story.
Done many times since (see River Wild & Cliffhanger) but I remember Shoot To Kill being one of the first ones like that I saw as a kid.

OT: Hilarious how the MSM is beating up on tech stonks and saying there is a sell-off and people should avoid.
The whales are not selling off, they are massively shorting to get in a better long position. They are not getting out, they are getting in. I predict that Big Tech will end 2022 massively up.
But why would Big Tech be a buy, during a time when the Fed is jawboning about QE tapering and rate hikes?
Three easy reasons:
1. Because when there is less free money to go around, the Central Banks will do what they have always done in the past: take that lessened liquidity and concentrate it on just a few stonks -- the FAANGS. Then all the other stonk market indexes will tie themselves to those few equities. Just like they did 2016-. (yes, this market is completely rigged)
2. Because Big Tech is the gift that keeps on giving: low cost/high margins, easy digital marketing, and built-in obsolescence of products and services.
3. All the small and mid cap value companies' stonks will get crushed in a lower QE environment without any CB support.
I mean, they're already telegraphing it:

Btw, this will also be good for Bitcoin.

95%+ of WO'ers had no clue who that is, because they aren't old enough to have actually seen a movie that he was in. They had to google who he was.
I'm glad to be one of the 5% who knows who it is - so even though Sidney Poitier may have been in the shadow of great actors like Katharine Hepburn & Spencer Tracy in Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (1967), I personally remember him from that film in which he has achieved one of his best roles for me personally. RIP💐
I remember him in Duel at Diablo (1966). That western left an impression on me, as I watched it at a very young age. The scene near the end when the Indians torture one of the characters by stripping him naked and leaving him to literally "bake" under the sun still haunts me to this day.

Mobile Phones are reeusable or their Components mostly are that is why thr Refubrished program. They plan on decreasing the Phone Rubbish to 7bil by 2025. Ships are a valuable asset towards recycling too, alot of materials there ! You cant reuse some burned out GPUs or Asic.. its straight for the garbage bin except the copper inside and a aluminium radiator lol

I’m underage, but the day before it was on the news …. They showed a few movie pieces
Mostly movies around colored people they said
I never saw him before the news article
I believe 93 years old which is a very nice age….

How about 15 billion mobile devices? Which are expected to reach 18 billion by 2025.

Sheeeit.
Yeah
My guess is we are getting a dump down into the 30s this weekend. Hopefully the last though.
Gonna head off for 12 hours and not check the price. I hope that when I check the price again we have bounced from here. Got to be oversold right now.
With a profile signature like that I woudn't worry much...
I now draw an income from bitcoin instead of selling it, higher prices are better for that too.

Mozilla has lost a lot of credibility with their support of the fake left and their divisive identity politics, this announcement certainly doesn't help. But there is no real non-chromium alternative. Mozilla will probably die out completely in 5-10 years anyway though.

Lol. Wait until they discover how much energy the internet uses! They might want to shut down their web browser business.Yes... The Mining Grid is so Power Hungry you have no clue. If we put Internet E-Consumption we calculate it to be somewhere 13% of the whole Mining Grid. That is nowhere near the power consumtion of a Mining Grid
