Can't tell if you are being sarcastic. DMX had issues, but he was a talented performer who produced art (music) that was relevent to many in the age group who read HN. If that isn't you and therefore you don't understand it

"take advantage of the recall"? They just got way more valuable. There is no upside at all to returning them.

Stop name-dropping "Game theory" into everything. Life is more complex.

"without fear of personal liability" You see no issue with that, seriously?

Are you serious? Any reasonable read of the title sees editorializing.

"the same police"? So, they are in their late 80s now?

Quadra 605 was the first Mac I had. I was like 13... I did so much exploring the early internet on that thing, I loved it. I didn't realize it was the cheapest option at the time but it makes sense now.

I'm so confused. "Build interactive web apps" "Create bespoke tools" Any examples besides weird shapes?

STOP. Think. So many people running wild based on one twitter post.

but how can I short sell them?

Not extreme at all. You seem very out of touch with the reality of the enthusiast markets for such things. People line up for days for stuff like this. If all you had to do was provide ID online and wait 3 days at home... no problem at all.

no, but for seller reputation sake, WHO gets the sales matters a LOT. A limited brand that everyones knows 90% of stock is going to a reseller marking it up is going to quickly be done.

You said a lot of words that can simply be countered by a 22yo saying "yolo" and they aren't exactly wrong either. As an individual, you do only live once. How do you want to spend that time? Being upset at the way things are

Does "contact" have a definition I'm not aware of? They didn't communicate with it, and they did not touch it.

Why is everyone arguing about stuff in this thread instead of focusing on the less-interesting but still super concerning fact that something flew "right over the top" of a commercial airplane? Even in the least-interesting case
