Do they think chatGPT actually “thinks” about the data it reads? It just parrots back approximations of what real people say about the subject it’s asked about. I’ll they’re getting is a new aspect of the weird echo chamber they live in

It doesn't even really do that, it's just a fancy version of the autocorrect text prediction on your phone.

It doesn't really work like that. They make predictions that tomorrow is the big day where everything comes together and when it doesn't happen everyone just ignores it and moves on to the next prediction that it's actually the next day. Nobody seems to ever question why the last 100 times someone predicted BBBY would make them rich and it never happened.

That's what I mean, I want to see what the next "Secret plan for disrupting the marketplace, leaving hedge fund investors dumbfounded and taking us all to the moon!" idea is, and the excuses for why they didn't go to the moon this time. I've got my popcorn ready.

Eh, I don’t find it sad because it’s down to the last believers and they’re so drat spiteful. It’s the same fantasies you get with the worst of cryptobros: wife changing money, I’ll laugh in my friend’s faces because none of them believed me and call them tards as I cruise away on my megayacht, threats of violence against the ‘shills’, showing up and harassing workers at the counter for insider knowledge, sending hate mail and death threats to brokers, etc.

I just like to drop in with the whacky DBZ towels and time travel theories that are incredibly wild, and not the general mass about how “the streets will bathe in the blood of suicidal hedgies while I laugh, then I’ll dump my dumb wife who says I’m in a cult and begs me to stop spending the food money on the blockchain for a hottie 20 years younger than me who doesn’t talk back” comments.

I still hear basically nothing but this from my crypto circles continually. They haven't changed their tune even now. Wife changing money and shills/fud are continually the tone. Even when I share regulatory issues they only see things supporting their cult viewpoints.

There's a consistent destructive greed theme which basically involves getting into fantasy land. I know anyone in these circles is also sadly pretty easily drawn into that sort of greed thinking from others which is why I don't directly engage anyone from said circles.

Good luck with trying to get some schadenfreude out of the bbby idiots. These guys are the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet. The numerous narrative revisions as the stock has gone from 23 dollars to 23 cents have left only the dumbest of the dumb behind. They don't even have those moments where reality pierces their bubble for a moment before the next narrative takes hold like you might find on the crypto reddits. Everything that happens is just part of the plan, even if the plan was exactly the opposite yesterday. Their worthless penny stocks jump by a cent and they start smugly posting about how all the shills have been cowed. The auction for BBBY that they've been hanging their hopes on for months ends up going for $21 million and they're all "shills are out in force today. bullish :smug:". All news is good news. The next thing up is the sale of Buy Buy Baby, which of course is the real jewel and will go for billions. And once it goes for pennies on the dollar they won't be fazed a whit.

Hm. Earn enough money on meme stocks/crypto and you'll be able to fire a cylindrical object up a shaft to reach Uranus? Probably not an unintentional metaphor in any way.

The whole concept appears to be “the monetary threshold at which my crypto/meme stock enthusiasm becomes tolerable to my wife.”

Shouldn't you divorce your nocoiner wife before your Buy Buy Baby stocks hit Uranus so she can't take half of your billions?

E: goddamnit

Ok well the other funny thing is the idea that game companies would want to let customers to buy their games and rent them out to others instead of selling more games (or renting their games themselves if they really wanted a subscription model)

MLM reasoning.

Report from the Bed Bath and Beyond crazies:

  • They're mostly convinced that this is the last weekend before they all get rich, because the BBBY auction sale is Wednesday
  • They believe BBBYQ will dramatically increase in price after the sale, but mostly for reasons that I can't understand even after good faith efforts to decypher their argot and belief systems
  • They still view their actions as a righteous war against "criminal" hedge funds and people holding short positions
  • As a side note, BBBYQ is currently 22% short
  • Some of them are worried that the kerfuffle in Russia over the past 36 hours was a false flag -- not by either of the belligerents, but by the (((GLOBALISTS))) to cause a stock market crash just before their bankruptcy sale, thus preventing the prophecy from becoming true
  • Some of them believe that Ryan Cohen (Gamestop board; founder of Chewy) is directly in cahoots with Patrick Byrne (crypto bro; former CEO of Overstock, which is buying some of BBBY's assets), and in once-removed cahoots with Warren Buffet because Byrne is a Buffet fanboy. This sect believes that these cahooting activities will be what brings about the short squeeze that makes them rich
  • Several of those who believe they'll be rich come Wednesday afternoon are planning to become billionaires by converting all their winnings into -- wait for it! -- Gamestop calls for January! (I do wonder why January, but I don't care enough to dig any further)
  • Some of the ones on the BBBYQ --> GME master plan are actually worried that those stocks will "moon" at essentially the same time, ruining their chances of buying low on Gamestop

You're not delusional or misogynistic enough to understand them properly.

Obviously they're not going to lose money, and obviously women aren't going to have any agency to make decisions. Women are property to be replaced when the world finally starts reflecting their genius.
