It's going to fluctuate a lot on it's way down.

The people who bought it for a high price will also buy at lower prices to get a better average in total. These kinds purchases will increase the price for no other reason and self fulfill the option to sell the total at a slightly higher average than rock bottom. It's a (risky) way to cut the losses. Many people are probably still holding on to the overpriced stocks. With these things combined, existing investors can maintain an artificial high price. However, unless new investors start buying, it'll slowly but steadily lose value over time as existing investors manage to seep out.

Not a hoopy frood.

I feel like I have seen that number a dozen times before, maybe more. It's impossible to tell.

Yeah they do.

So does Hollywood.

Minecraft would have been better with a no-name actor as Steve. It would still suck, but at least it wouldn't also be a Jack Black movie.

Don't get me wrong, I like Jack Black; He plays an excellent role as Jack Black in movies where Jack Black does Jack Black things like the famous Jack Black falsetto, which is funny.

He's no Steve, though. Steve is an anonymous character and very much not a famous celebrity. Any random person off the street would have been a better cast.

Copied from Wikipedia:

Initially, crew members are unaware of the loop. However, Dr. Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden) begins to hear noises before she goes to bed following the poker game. Having a sense of déjà vu during the poker game and being able to predict the cards Data will deal during a subsequent loop, Crusher takes a tricorder with her to her room, records the voices, and later analyzes them to discover they are the panicked commands and broadcasts of the crew. The senior staff work out that they are stuck in the loop; the voices they are hearing are those of themselves from the previous loop just prior to the destruction of the ship. They evaluate the voices to determine that the loop is restarted due to the collision of the two ships but do not know how to avoid that collision in the first place. Data suggests that his positronic brain can be used to send a short message to himself in the next loop which may help them to avoid the collision. When they arrive at the anomaly, and after the collision, Data sends the message.

Sweden does the opposite.

The reason why there's always a Swedish actor in Nordic films is that the Swedish Film Institute gives funding to movies with Swedish actors.

It's such a silly trope by now, but at least it's the sane and successful way of doing it.

Adding a "tariff" will only result in more CGI slob. What if someone makes a movie with a story happening in Italy entirely by CGI? Would it be tariffed, and if so, what if the Italy location is actually in a galaxy far far away?

You could use your ticket money to pay off your mortgage, so all of your spendings are costing you the same interest at minimum.

So if you have a mortgage, you're not supposed to buy anything until the house is paid off?

No, I've never done a hit and run, but the point is that if I got into an accident one day, I might become one whether I want to or not, because it's an unconscious reaction.

The guy bankrupts everything he touches. Go ahead, take down the church.

Many hit and runs are done in panic. Lots of them turn themselves in later

Jeg synes grafen på DRs side er ret dramatisk. De zoomer direkte ind på prisintervallet ved at starte skalaen fra 100, og så vil enhver ændring jo vise en lodret streg.

Men jo. Smertegrænsen er nået for mit vedkommende. Pasta i kødsovs skal ikke koste så meget. Så er der andre hurtige retter som kan laves uden oksekød. Jeg må dermed også erkende at en del af mit forbrug har været baseret på at hakket oksekød er nemt at tilberede.

Det hænger ikke helt sammen i mit hovede. Lad mig lave en pizza..skal jeg vælge oksekød til 50kr eller pepperoni topping til 20? Det er nemt nok at vælge fra.

Det må da give en masse spild, medmindre andre går og køber det til 50-60 kr. for 400g?

Og når folk tager på ferie især i Sydeuropa, så bliver der altså en større efterspørgsel, forklarer hun.

Øh? Jeg tror ikke helt på den forklaring. Så giver det bedre mening med at landbruget har færre køer.

Det mærkelige er bare at jeg kan købe de samme usolgte pakker med oksekød er par dage efter til nedsat pris. Så får jeg gammelt kød, men om det har ligget en dag eller to i supermarkedets køler eller i mit eget køleskab, det er jeg ligeglad med. Det undrer mig bare at supermarkedet kan have så volatile priser uden at de taber penge. Der må være et fuldstændigt vildt disconnect i avancen mellem landbruget og detailhandlen.
