Japanese backstory is what makes anime trash most of the time. I hate their terrible need for excessive exposition. I'm 100% okay just having them fight to the death and ultimate power being the only things at sake. I way prefer a story that develops through showing interactions, and the typical...

Forgot to mention this when I found out, but as I've been expecting AAL is slashing a bunch of flights starting tomorrow. Looks like they're doing it in a way that will cut some small cities off from service. It's probably being done to specifically try and strong arm the government into bailing...

This is something I hype for. Swore I'd never work a stay at home job until I could secretly do it from the pacific islands. All the current options are total shite and wont suffice. This is a godsend for people who aren't in cities/don't have access to real fiber. That 1 gig line is probably...

I know three type of yakkers. Those that yak to fish, those that yak for fun, and those that use a yak as small transport with motor. I only really have experience with the practical uses of yaks and motoring with them. So let me suggest don't worry about storage and other details that matter...

Genuine!

I hate squishy keys with a passion. I need a key that fights back and goes clack. I have the coolermaster masterkeys full layout with green switches. No RBG bullshit. I am satisfied.

Wonder if they'll try the patreon lawsuit angle of attack.

I think equities are fine at any age, though I'd definitely want to be highly diversified with them in retirement. My plan when I'm in/near retirement is to leave the majority of my money in stocks, but have a block of about 4-5 years expenses in very safe investments and or cash. If things are...

No. Worst post.

Ketamine to xylazine ratio is important.

As someone with a few trillion isk in eve who's kinda escaped, is this good? Eve is kinda gay, but so am I apparently.

1-2k is a lot of art. I spend a LOT on art every year, and there's only been a few times that I've gone that high, and only once that I've gone much higher. For that price I'd expect a professional artist with a lot of reference, concepts provided free of charge (maybe not to someone who isn't a...

Definitely, and they aren't going away. It's something to keep in mind, though, because there's no doubt the battery industry has a big pull on the price of cobalt in particular.

I'd use caution with that in terms of EV batteries. Lifepo4 has advanced far, and has a high chance of replacing cobalt batteries in EV related uses. It already has replaced cobalt in a lot of industrial applications (solar farms, ect). TSLA has explicitly stated interest in this and is already...

With electric everything, the future is with batteries. Pretty much everything else necessary in an EV is incredibly simple in design and function and not patentable anymore. The first company to patent a good usable 500wh/kg battery will literally change the world and print money. TSLA exists...

Is this oil or acrylic? Looks like acrylic. First WIP is usually a pencil sketch. I'm curious what it looked like. I'm curious what this artists other finished works look like. Never commission art without a look at their portfolio.

No, but I have a private painting from her. I believe she stopped doing art a few years ago, but there's plenty of other artists out there.

Art grows on you and is more about starting a conversation than being something, so I'd keep it and show it off. In terms of value you got raped, but people have been ripped off way, way, way worse than you when it comes to art, so be sure to have a list of those occurrences memorized. I've...

I feel like this is 1920 and we're all hi-5ing each other because money is forever. My goal has always been to retire on the day I have 25x replacement income saved (currently at ~5), but if stocks do like this, I might as well retire at 15x or so. What's the catch to all this money I'm...

I was wondering if the TSLA split could backfire, but then I remembered that electric cars don't backfire.

I love watching what robinhood traders do. They are buying the dip: https://robintrack.net/symbol/KODK

They just straight up said fuck it and skipped phase 3. If you go by that standard, there are a lot of vaccines ready for widespread use. Pretty much everyone expects corners to be cut. So rather than Russia being the only one with a perfectly safe vaccine already, we might see a drastic...

Technically you can crack the skull open and take brain samples with them still alive from some of the most vulnerable parts of the brain to disruption. Most places aren't equiped to do this, but in theory there's a chance they could survive it. Any other method is incredibly unreliable.

Looks like NKLA signed a deal to produce electric dump trucks. Researched the subject a bit more and found a novel way that other companies want to use hydrogen in industrial vehicles, which NKLA may attempt to emulate. Apparently they want to use electric along with a hydrogen/propane mixture...

Kodak done goofed I think. All the shit that went down the monday before their announcement shows that insiders knew and were cashing in. The CEO options deal was just downright cheeky. They probably expected the stock to jump nicely, but when tues day happen they were probably having a...

what spooked people.

Trump has been swinging up in the polls, and is now close to his highs in some of the more reliable ones. I think stocks are being mildly optimistic that Trump will win, and we'll probably see some pops on the debates if there are any, since there's no way Biden could look good against trump...

That's definitely the approach a western mind would take to this situation. Chinese people... I'm not confident that China would allow the disgrace of their companies being shamed without retaliation. Face is a big deal to them, and staying quiet during times like these makes a leader look...

China can cause short term disruptions that'd smear egg on apple's face, but yea, I'm convinced they have plenty of money to set up shop somewhere else and be fine long term.

Sooo, executive order attacking two chinese tech firms. The way china works, they WILL retaliate and quickly when it goes into effect with what they feel is an equivalent measure. Looking at all of their options in tech, I believe the most vulnerable companies by far are Amazon, Apple, and...

Since there's a lot of weird stuff with retirement accounts, I thought I'd mention a little plan I had for the first few years of my retirement. You can roll 401k over into Roth IRA. I was planning on traveling the world and having close to 0 income for my first years in retirement. Rather than...

Im jelly of people who can do HSAs. Being a gov worker, the rolls royce medical plan is way too good to pass up. Surgery with a 4 day hospital stay that includes CT scans, physical therapy and all those tests and medicines. 150k on paper, 600$ out of pocket. If I had a way to weasel a HSA into...

It's definitely valued far ahead of where it is. I wouldn't be surprised to see more growth in the stock's price while we live in clown world though. I'd probably hold for now. Also very good they made opt in the default choice. I've heard plenty of stories of people with 20+ years that spent...

TSP is very good, but not responsive. It's always surprising to me how few people took advantage of it. Luckily, they changed it so you have to opt out of it instead of opting in recently. A lot of people probably just didn't understand what it was. As far as the government is concerned, its one...

I think I'm up 15k the last two weeks. Pretty okay with that. I say I think because my biggest account is something @LachiusTZ is familiar with, the slow behemoth that is the TSP. Crazy how far things have come since my first investment of 31$ years and years ago and the 5 cents I made off it in...

If you save any money consistently you're already ahead of 90% of americans. Managing your money is easy. Just don't greedy and think you figured it out where nobody else ever has. That's where people get hazed and lose everything. Wins will come, but never forget that losses will come too.

AMD is definitely offblasting into outer space. Not even close to TSLA levels of ludicrously overvalued, so plenty of room to grow still.

https://robintrack.net/symbol/KODK Robinhood users are mostly long kodk it seems.

NFL is the worst. If XFL doesn't gay it up like NFL I'd watch it.

Is MSFT the only company that fucks up everything except its stock price?
