    Superman & Lois

    For the love of God tell me you're being sarcastic... At the very end, when he's back on his ship/base (apparently in some artic type area) and the ship/base computer is talking to him about analysis from the first fight and what needs to be improved/modified on the suit, and it refers to him...

    The Flash

    Well this story is relevant to the Flash show as it will force them to write around not having one of what I felt were the few entertaining characters they had. I was honestly, and mostly because of the sentimentality towards the comic characters, hoping to see them play out the Ralph/Sue...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    OK, my understanding of NFT's. It's essentially leveraging a blockchain to guarantee authenticity of a digital item/object. It's like the DRM of the cryptocurrency world, and then some. As an artist, you would be able to create digital items. Essentially this is a file or some kind. many...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    That's another part that is somewhat perplexing to me, probably indicating I don't understand enough of it yet. In a traditional market downturn you would see a "flight to safety". That's usually the bond market. But sometimes if the downturn is inflationary it goes to commodities. We are...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    What I am not understanding right now is that all the tracking news seems to be indicating a near term influx of institutional money wanting to buy into bitcoin, yet seeing the price correction continue is odd. Although some are speculating that a lot of institutional buying isn't happening on...

    You guys are pontificating about trading which is happening over a weekend AND over the end of a month. I'm definitely still a completely noob at this, but everything I've been reading since Friday has been saying it's not smart to do any trading this weekend, and most of them are expecting...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    That was pretty much my path I ended up using.... USD -> coinbase -> BTC -> Kraken -> Deadalus Wallet -> staking. The whole process ended up costing me around 2-3% in fees and crap, and could be summed up with the phrase PITA.

    Superman & Lois

    OK, @Mrs. Haus and I had a go at the pilot. I liked it. If they can keep this tone it will keep me watching. But they have to avoid two things for me. Don't slip into the Woke-abyss (i.e. Supergirl...) Don't turn into "People... in hallways... talking about their feelings!" (i.e. what...

    Yeah, I'm thinking we're going to see BTC retest some lows in the next week. Reading news on this it seems to be being partially driven by one of the big mining pools dropping a bunch of BTC onto the exchanges. Still trying to figure out easiest way to get into ADA and MATIC in Texas short of...

    The Mandalorian

    They have obviously failed in actually transitioning to being a man, as a man would not have taken "abuse" and just have just given her the back of his hand for getting out of line and carried on with his day. #amirite?

    OK. Newb question here. I'm on Coinbase (see the "old guy finds money" post). But wanting to buy into some other altcoins, most of which you can't buy on the coinbase exchange. But apparently binance you just can't use in Texas of all things. Am I going to have to tempt fate with Kraken...

    SPAC & IPO Ideas

    What do you guys think about AONE.U ? I'm interested because they're taking a metal additive 3d printing firm public through acquisition and I think that's an area that will be doing good business over the next decade. But I have a mixed bag of feels about the SPAC because it involves the...

    This guy has an interesting point. Not sure the it's perfect correlation/causation-wise. He mentions that there's a huge chinese bitcoin mining pool and every time they dump large volumes of BTC onto exchanges there's a temporary downward spike in prices. He mentions it at around 2:30 in this...

    Yeah, she's saying it's used for illicit purchases... yet it's a blockchain and you can quite literally track every single transaction. If you're buying something illicit it makes more sense to deal in cash. heh The bottom line here is the US wants to control what crypto people use, which is...

    Yeah, this actually sounds bearish saying it's "seems high". Either that or he realizes that the SEC will have hell convicting him of trying to pump or suppress a market in a cryptocurrency so he's having fun being an Omega level troll.

    I was always under the impression that the EPA forcing heavy regulation on rare earth processors is why we don't have much in domestic rare earths business. Although I definitely see the reasons to want to have independence on that front. IIRC Morgan Stanley came out with some bullish...

    Another newb question... Apparently I can't use Binance in Texas. (even going to Binance.us it has no love for me...) What's a good platform to use for us Texans? Short of just robbing people when they cross the border?

    So as I'm exploring this whole scene and trying to figure out the best way for an Old who happens to be decent with computers to do OK in it I'm leaning towards the thought that Bitcoin is a store of wealth (like gold) and everybody will transfer it into a more liquid/usable form for actual...

    Question, I haven't watched any of it yet. Plan on watching once I can get it (off a boat... wink wink) all and binge. My understanding was that the barrier itself was impenetrable at first, apparently beekeeper dude leveraged the sewers to go "under" it. But Monica Rambeau is able to push...

    I think I just set a new high watermark for how much of a clueless middle aged white guy I truly am. I've been researching the idea of putting some assets into Cryptocurrency as a hedge against what I think will be an upcoming market correction (my unverifyable "gut" is telling me a 40%-50%...

    Does it pick up after the first episode? Or is that what I should expect from it? I know first episodes are always exposition heavy and whatnot.

    Oh, and make no mistake. By doing the battle of Mandalore next season it's an excuse on their part to flush the tubes of all actors involved (i.e. TTFN Pedro!)

    The Mandalorian

    This is where Kennedy fails, and by proxy Disney. They bought the franchise. It was pretty much a license to print money forever. Like a perfect classic Ferrari you could drive forever as long as you just changed the oil and replaced the tires occasionally. Disney didn't like that they...

    Watched that first episode... I'm going to figure they put it out there for free as it was the best of the first batch of episodes. Didn't really grab me. A few funny bits, the awkward "look, it's because HE'S AN ALIEN!" gags. Felt a little ham fisted on how it's trying to force the pieces...

    The way I see it. They didn't have her under contract after the last season of Mando wrapped. Next season of Mando is supposedly siege of Mandalore, which would be in the past and not involve her. The one angle was for her to have headed up that Rangers show, but I'm willing to bet half (or...

    Walker

    I have to admit, just seeing them on a generic home improvement/house flipping show would probably reel in viewers. The fact the Jensen Ackles owns a bar/microbrewery also tells me he could do "Jensen Ackles tours bars, drinks, and eats bar food" show and put Guy Fieri out of business.

    In Endgame they were in the process of trying to "unweave" Vision from the mind stone IIRC. This was what Shuri was working on. If they have him get outside the bubble and revert to "dead" they could say "We should call his Dr..." Enter Shuri. She manages to repair the body and get the...
