Jeeeeesus. I haven't looked into them, nope. The platforms I use for trading seem very limited compared to what the pros use. I like Robinhood for the slick UI, for example.

Thanks for the input, definitely going to hold onto it now. I'm new enough at this that nobody should be emulating anything I say or do on this subject. It's also tough to keep track of so many of these, and I couldn't remember why I bought into PSTH to begin with. If anything, it sounds like I...

Just finished the video. Welp, looks like I got this one 100% wrong! The escaped blanket is pretty conclusive proof. That's the Knight alright. Also the stuff I've read about it floating over Scandinavia for centuries wasn't right either, since it was off the coast of Africa. So basically this...

I hope we get a class action lawsuit in the Lordstown situation. It's easily my biggest financial loss since I started stonking (sold at 60% of what I bought in at, and I sold a day after the fraud news broke). I invested entirely on the basis of the information they were putting out there that...

Can you translate? PSTH is one that I was considering cutting loose. Have around $500 in it and was thinking about re-investing it elsewhere at this point. GSAH and SOAC are two I'm very interested in having more of / any of respectively. If people are holding the line on PSTH I can hold the...

I believe the 12,000 to 13,000 number comes from people in Scandinavia etc passing down stories about it over the centuries, since it's visible from the ground there and has been in the same orbit for a long time. That said, passing down stories is one thing but I don't know how people came up...

Gold Trump dollar. Well, gold-plated, not solid. I'll need to store this under the floorboards during the Great Purge of 2023, but until then it's fun to look at. Looks like I do indeed have a Walking Liberty silver dollar and half dollar already. The silver dollar has some edge discoloration...

Something I'm getting used to seeing: My stocks are red, red all the way down. LAZR is really fighting, though. It's the only one giving me consistent jumps into the green. Everything else is just...crashed from a month ago. Is this because of fears of inflation because of these stimulus bills...

If we found another interesting planet with life on it and decided to set up shop and observe it from as safe a distance as possible with our drones, where would WE set up shop? That's right: On the planet's perfectly geosynchronous moon, one side of which the planet's inhabitants can't even see.

Sounds good to me. I certainly learned my NAV lesson from buying ZNTE at $13 or $14. I still have it, too, hoping for it to go somewhere the same way Sam Beckett hoped for a leap home. Here's what I've still got for SPACs, lotta NAV here: I'm trying to move more into crypto at this point...

On another topic, does anyone have any idea WTF the Black Knight Satellite is? Thing's been orbiting Scandinavia / the arctic for 12-13,000 years. Maybe it already got discussed here, don't know.

I've always figured (at least for a decade or so) that these super-fast UFOs were more likely to be drones than to have pilots. Look at our military moving in the direction of drones and automated pilots as quick as it can. All of our expeditions to other planets (rovers, mosquito, etc) are...

Those are pretty rad. I checked out JM Bullion and the prices are nuts for platinum coins, but man are they appealing. I'm in a silver mood and used to collect coins myself. Last coin I bought was a 2020 gold Trump dollar because I had a feeling they'd disappear off the face of the Earth within...

It's definitely the time for buying. Over in the crypto arena everything is down across the board tonight too. I wish I had more money freed up so I could splurge.

I assume most people here know this already: The out-of-Africa theory seems to be bunk at this point since modern human fossils have been found in Europe that easily pre-date the earliest modern human fossils in Africa by like half a million years or more. Regardless of where people come from...

BTNB pop off when?? I bought in at like $13, then bought in a lot more at $10.40 or so. I've been hovering around 90% of my investment for weeks, as a result. When is the champagne party?

How secure is Coinbase? As in, people who have large sums of money in their Coinbase wallet, what are the odds of getting hacked and losing your life savings?

Put $700k in Ethereum, stake it, and live off of the 10% interest per year. Keep the other $309k for other things / backup / stocks. I have no idea if this krazy plan would actually work.

I'm liking the sound of all of this. Was already thinking about staking ethereum once I'm done buying. I've only got like $700 in it now because I spread the money around. Most of it went to BTC and the rest got split between Eth, Maker, Mana, Dash, and ADA. So my idea is to drop another $1300...

Who is this doofus downvoting everyone?

Soon as I realized ADA was on regular Coinbase today I grabbed it. Big buy at $1.28, going to hang onto that for a while. When ETH becomes ETH 2.0, is everyone's existing holding in ETH going to just convert over to the new one? I'm interested to see what kind of a jump ETH gets out of this.

I've got four working laptops here to potentially mine. One of them is pretty beat-up and needs like $500 in repairs so I probably wouldn't use that one. The other 3 are all modern (two high-spec 2020 Lenovos, one mid-spec 2018 Lenovo). It'd obviously be a lot better if they were desktops, but I...

This is the best evidence I've seen for the "modern humans came here from another planet" idea. Or some modern humans, anyway. See: Xenogears and stories like that. It's an interesting idea since we're so different from most of the planet. That we were put here, or fled here from somewhere else...

Good. I'd like to see them work on FF16 and FF7R-2, -3, etc instead of piecemealing it out like FF15. I couldn't stand how FF15 went. The game itself was alright, but it was clearly EXTREMELY unfinished. It looked like around 80% of the game world had been cut (going off of early concept world...

Guard Scorpion is also probably the toughest (or most drawn-out) fight as a new player. Nothing else is remotely that difficult until Air Buster which is like 25% of the way through the entire game. There are some real layers to the combat in this one. Even after I beat the game (on Easy) I...

"Firiona sports a dong" would get EQ so much mainstream coverage from Kotaku etc with headlines like "One of the MMO greats makes a MUCH-needed and long-overdue change". Washington Post might even cover it if the head dev was a lady. "A Female Game Developer Took A Bold Step. Online Trolls...

I had the same realization at around the same time. Here we had a massive amount of interest being generated by new servers. Tons of people returning to the game, despite a complete lack of marketing. Just word of mouth and people loyal to EQ bringing the game back to life once again. ...and...

Just gave Wal-mart a stab at 3:40 and it's got an "add to cart" option but it says out of stock after I click that. I'll try a few more times. Still nothing on Amazon. Not a big deal though.

Not sure about that. I don't have PS+ and there are a bunch of games I got on PS+ that are locked out now. They have a lock symbol on them and it says I need a PS+ subscription. I might get PS+ this month just for Rez and Subnautica. Depends on if Rez is playable without VR. I loved the PS2...

Yeah, back in the day I had PS+ subbed for a long time and accumulated a lot of free games. For the cost of a game rental at Blockbuster you'd get two games a month and they were often really good / high-profile ones. I haven't been subbed regularly for a few years now because nowayears I have...

In-store or online?

Might try to grab another PS5 on Amazon today. They're adding a ton of stock. I have no idea when in the day this is happening, though, so I'll probably miss it.

The problem is that they can't revert Freeport for an event server without doing it on all servers. Which would be great if they did that, but waaaay too many later quests are tied into New Freeport. Those quests would be totally messed-up by a reversion. PoR would be thrown into chaos. Yeah, a...

Definitely Bard. Unless the alt could develop into your new main, in which case SK or Paladin. The only "weak point" of your group is the lack of knight. However if your Ranger is gonna be raid geared and capable of tanking and you just want an alt, Bard would enhance everybody.

Just bear in mind that if you level with this method, your skill levels are going to be pretty far behind and you're basically going to suck until you fight for a while and catch your weapon skills up.
