They're making money. It's just not a really high amount.

They were looking at selling 8% for the initial IPO offering is how.
Aside from that, there valuation is double what it would be. This stock will wind up settling at 15 to 20 a share within a couple months, IMO. Their revenue isn't really that much, the ai data isn't going to become much more profitable for them after this year, and redditors have been getting less thrilled with the site for the past 5 years. They're peaking in profits right now. It won't get better for them.
That part just takes an inverter.
I'm not sure of the max load output on a car battery, but with a 15 amp 1800 watt dc to ac inverter, you probably can run a fridge off one. It probably just won't last all that long.
4 years ago off meh.com I got a cheap electric high-speed toothbrush that came with 12 replacement heads. I'm still using it, and it still works great. I actually only replace the head about once a year (I sanitize it more often than that) but it's been awesome for the $30 I spent on it. 5/5 stars.
Balls and teeth, but no game systems, farm equipment, anything with an engine (ice), or....electric toothbrushes. All exempt.
You kind of got lucky. I have the skills and equipment to find the bad ones and replace those LEDs on them. Keep an eye on Facebook marketplace and it's impressive how many people will put up their three year old 65+ inch tvs that don't work for free just to get rid of them because they can't fit in a trash can.
Getting to the LEDs without breaking anything is usually the hard part. Aside from like a million screws and clips, the screen itself is extremely thin and fragile, and you have to pick it up and move it around without cracking it. Little 40 or 50 inch tvs are fairly easy to do, but those 70+ inch tvs are going to take handled suction cups and a couple of people.
Then finding the burnt out led isn't much work with the right tools, and neither is soldering on a new led. So much trouble for just a single little LED that I can literally but in rolls of 100 for like $12.
So yeah, your TV breaks because of a 12 cent led. And that's consumer prices. Samsung probably pays like 5 cents.
And there's a lot of other guys selling shovels, too. It's not that anticompetitive when someone is selling better shovels than anyone else and also charging a premium for them. Anticompetitive would be having the best and undercutting everyone else on pricing in order to make sure no other sellers had a chance.
They had tons of covert "ads" before this, too. Set up like 100 fake accounts (commonly bought from people who create and fluff them up by posting and commenting for a while so they look legit) and then post your add and use like 20 or so of your Bot accounts to upvote and comment to get the ball rolling.
Then you have your add there, got it climbing a bit in "new" and didn't pay a dime for it.
Tvs have a short lifespan, now. People have to replace them like every 5 years on average, I'd guess. I think people have less tvs in their homes, though.
The other part of this is that people brought a lot of tvs up to a couple years ago when there was a decade long stretch of LED back-lit tvs. The problem was that there might be 100 leds back there and a single one going out junked the tvs. They were cheaply fixable, but not easily fixable. Most people wouldn't be able to do it.
He's about to steal more of it from me. I've been waiting months for 1.6 to start up a new save. Been holding out on playing sv on my steam deck instead of pc.
Flashbacks of how lit the Queen of the Damned soundtrack was.
Almost all I do is torrent from mobile.
I use windscribe vpn and enable the setting to block all data not going though it, so there can't be an accidental leak, and I use the apk Flood to manage my torrents, as it has a lot of nice options and allows me to download files to any folder I'd like.
