The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

My bank account number?

Heck, I don’t want them to know my home address or phone number.

I surely don’t want them on my phone.

Every time I sign on Facebook I’m hectored to sign up with Muse and let it do EVERYTHING for me.

Dear Zuck: I know you get carried away with ideas (see: META), but this one’s a stinker too. Go back to exploiting kids for screen time. It’s bound to be more profitable, and the risks are fewer. You might only have to pay a few billion dollars every few years for transgressing, instead of having your bot steal everyone’s bank accounts and hiding them in the Cayman Islands. Or somewhere. Bonus: You don’t have to invest all your available cash flow for the next decade in a race with Google to own the most servers, which will fry up and crisp in a few years leaving you with an empty shell of a once thriving new economy business. Your pal, Goofy.
