Where do the corrupt cops get enough money to pay them off? Presumably the high level traffickers have orders of magnitude more money than the cops.

I've heard this from multiple tinder dates as well. It's somewhat stupid and shallow but I get it. Everytime I see a green bubble I consciously notice and for whatever reason slightly disapprove. Does this make me shallow and stup

You can order at-home rapid antigen supervised (over webcam) tests to your home that are accepted for flights. Not sure it would come over night though. But you're right it is totally broken: they should be auctioning these PCR testing

Most shows and movies developed by Netflix are profoundly uninspired: they take no risks and produce content that is mostly acceptable but quickly forgotten.

You would rather miss out on the returns entirely than pay capital gains taxes on a percentage of the profits? How does this make any sense?

I mean what's the point of a vacation if you're just staying at home? Yeah of course staying at home doing nothing is boring.

You're saying there's no amount of money for which you would do that? I am highly skeptical

I mean they have value: otherwise you wouldn't be able to sell them? You can call them a scam but they're clearly not worthless. Flipping NFTs can be incredibly profitable.

> Not dried unprocessed corn, I'm talking corn flour baked/fried into a chips-like snack, like we do potatoes. Bet you never heard of it. Doritos, fritos, cheetos, nachos, tortilla chips, etc? It's very popular..

Oh sure yeah but it's unlikely spoof bid would be above theo.. too risky on the part of the spoofer

by smabie 5y ago
No they would not do this. Why would they want to hit the spoof bid?

In crypto spoofing is pretty prevalent. There are even tier 1 tradfi market makers who heavily engaged in not just spoofing but quote stuffing as well across crypto markets. It's annoying to see, but not a big deal per se: your order b
