    There's no doubt that the long-term trend of fiat currency is down. That doesn't mean it can't go up for quite a while. Below is CPI-adjusted, USD gold prices. If you bought gold in 1980 you'd have to hold for 25 years to break even. What's your investment timeframe?

    They've arrested the guy they think started the Pacific Palisades fire. Part of the evidence is his ChatGPT search. "Rinderknecht allegedly typed a question into ChatGPT: “Are you at fault if a fire is lift because of your cigarettes,” according to the criminal complaint."

    Sounds like AI automation opportunity. It could scan posts as they're submitted an offer a warning and chance to correct: "This post appears to be about politics, which isn't allowed on this forum." Buttons "Not political, continue" and "edit post."
