    GME actually climbed back to the point I bought in at...too bad I sold mine at a 75% loss a month ago. #diamondhands I don't regret it though. Had no reason to expect it to ever rebound. The lesson learned is that if you're selling something for bargain basement prices, you might as well keep...

    Is SAII ever going to amount to anything? It's like the most consistently nothing-happening, NAV-hovering SPAC I check on.

    Unfortunately I missed the $10 sale on Fell Seal. Really want to play a Tactics game so I got it at $40 (with the DLC). Couple questions: Was the DLC worth getting? Is it worth playing? Is it an add-on / expansion or does it just add things to the base game? About to start the game in the next...

    MANA is so hot right now. I bought a few hundred dollars of it at .25 because I had a good feeling about it, later sold at .41 which it was hovering around for a bit. Expected it to go back down, instead now it's in the high .50s. Could this be the next crypto to make a big leap? I've still got...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    Pretty sure my Coinbase only has a $4 fee, but it's per transaction. So I stick to larger transactions. Not sure why my fees are different. Maybe I'm wrong and there are hidden fees. I had the idea to buy like $20 of every top 50 crypto available just to hang onto and see if any of them ever go...

    Damn, that's what I was worried about. Pretty disappointed in that TV. It started getting super-hot on the lower edge of the panel for a few days, then stopped working. Sony X800 4K LED. Can't recommend.

    Home Theater/Game Room Thread

    Now that that's done... what's the best way to get an X800 Sony TV repaired? It's still worth like $600-700 so I'll probably resell it whenever I get around to getting it fixed, assuming it isn't a giant PITA to fix it.

    Ended up going with the LG OLED for a hundred more, think that's probably the best bet. I've got an LG and it works great. The TV I'm replacing is a Sony X800 from 2015 that REALLY should have lasted longer than this. So I'm a little hesitant to get another Sony after the 6 year old one I had...

    Wow, so this is what it's supposed to look like. 50:20 if the timestamp doesn't work. Imagine if Revolution had ended with this, people would be calling it one of the best PPVs in years. It isn't much different from what we got from a safety standpoint, just much more visually impressive.

    Yeah, once the doctor got in there and tapped Kingston, he should have looked up and gone "wait, what?" and played it off like "that's it?" which would have left some fans feeling underwhelmed but at least it would have made sense. Moxley being out of it makes sense because he just had a brutal...

    I need a new TV for the living room. Main purpose will be for movie-watching when people are over and whatnot. I've got an LG OLED in the game room for gaming, so there won't be any gaming on the living room TV. Any suggestions between these three...

    Anyone have advice on cryptos worth getting at this juncture? I've got about 70% of my crypto investment money in Bitcoin and the other 30% divided between a couple of other things, but I'd like to add more. Here's what I have: BTC, ETH, Dash, Maker, Litecoin. Are those all worth keeping? I...

    One thing though, it's hard to believe that they didn't put the Shaq match on the PPV. Popping a rating (or as much of a rating as you can pop anymore) on the go-home show might also lead to more PPV buys, but I have to think that putting the Shaq match on the PPV would have overall gotten them...

    REVOLUTION PREDICTIONS World Title - Omega vs. Moxley: I really wanted PAC to challenge Omega and for it to be a really good straight wrestling match. They seemed to be going that route, setting up him, Archer, and Moxley as Omega's top 3 challengers. However they pulled back on PAC recently...

    All of AEW's storylines are dragging out way too long, it feels like. Can blame the pandemic for that. Having huge story developments with no crowd (or a 10th of a crowd like it is currently) just doesn't work. Things like the impending revival (heh) of the Four Horsemen, Hikaru Shida dropping...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    A paladin/cleric duo is sick DPS in the Torment of Velious expansion, at least :P I'm a big fan of anti-undead holy nukes. Have been since FF1 on the NES. Not many games do them. One of the things I'm looking forward to about being a necro on a new TLP.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Oh, did she have an arm cast in the original? Well, that's that I guess. Still think it looks stupid and greatly detracts from what should be a cute/sexy outfit with the short sleeves and short shorts (yeah, I'm aware her character is like 16 and I don't care). Speaking of outfits, I really...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yuffie is pretty cute, though I'm not crazy about how they have her in a giant poncho (and in some kind of weird arm cast once she loses the poncho). It's like they had to ruin the character design a little bit. This is gonna dive into Dirge of Cerberus territory. That was Deepground in the...

    I just bought GSAH this morning at 12.50 or so. Is it about to drop a bit? I seem to have not-very-good timing with buying/selling, except for CCIV and BTC.

    I broke the sub-$12 rule and got ZNTE at like $14, so it's been a loser for me. Not too worried though. Just a lesson that if you're going to go in on something, the closer to 10 the better.

    Suggestions? I've got Fidelity, Robinhood, Stash, and Coinbase. CB is fine for crypto, but Fidelity never fixed me being frozen out so I can't trade on there. RH and Stash are both pretty bad for completely different reasons. Do not recommend.

    Same with me, just a couple years later. The downtime was when I got a lot of schoolwork done. I distinctly remember kiting things on my necro and then answering another few questions on some homework, then doing another kite. There's something to be said for the soloable classes compared to the...

    What would you guys say is the hardest out of Nioh, Nioh 2, and Sekiro? Which is the easiest? I assume Ghost of Tsushima is easier than all of the above since it's a different kind of game. I want to run all four of them this year but start with the easier ones. I'm going to guess that aside...

    Thinking about putting a chunk of money on BSPE this week instead of my now-customary weekly Bitcoin buy, since BTC has spiked so much. The words "ground floor" are extremely appealing right now. ACAC is still more or less ground floor as well, got that one last week.

    Today in a Burning Lands raid I got hit by an easily-avoidable DT emote because I was distracted typing smack... calling out someone else who had been repeatedly failing the emote. Yep. I still narrowly missed dodging the emote by about one second, too. Point is, don't be typing a bunch of...

    Agreed. Well, the issue for me is it's tough to have an exit plan before I know what is considered a success. Until today I thought a 20% gain was a huge deal, now I see how quickly something can jump 50% or more. Sold at $59, hopefully I sold at just the right time. We'll see. Either way, I...

    I decided to roll the dice and bought some CCIV at $39, hoping the Lucid deal would get announced. What's a good exit point for this? Over $50 and lock in some profit? I'm pretty new to the SPAC life. Have no idea where the ceiling is on a merger announcement spike. ZNTE's been a money-loser...

    I do indeed still have Uber. I've made about a 15% profit on it. Bought right when they announced their acquisition of the alcohol company with the dumb name. After reading this, I may want to just sell and lock in the profits I made. The company doesn't seem like a long-term winner if...

    My $300 on Doge is down to $235 or so now. Time to just end the experiment and sell? Can add that to my GME losses in the lesson learned category.

    How's that going? I guess I need to catch up on the thread.

Today I was down to $240 on the initial investment. I don't think Doge is gonna be a...
