    You can go on TXstreet and it graphically represents where the bulk of ETH transactions are coming from and yesterday I watched as in the evening it was something like 80% from Opensea... So I can confirm this assertion. Sucks because I have a tiny position I want to bridge over to Polygon but...

    I bought a "tiny flyer" sized position in F back when all the manufacturers were lining up for government bailouts and F said "NaBro.. We got this.. we're good." I've held it since then and since them tucked away at the back of my "just for fun" portfolio it's sitting at +402.24% since then...

    Well, I can see how they explain this... They aren't "creating" the multiverse, they're just peeling back a layer to expose it ala Jack Kirby. The multiverse as a concept existed, but Kang was acting as a kind of regulator keeping things on a path he was in effect choosing. His death unhinges...

    I haven't seen shit on the Flash movie, and the level to which I have no faith in anybody involved with it indicates to me a high degree of probability they're going to do irreparable damage to the IP. Which sucks as I'm running out of favorite comics for them to destroy. Top three superheros...

    Question, will this be out before or after Multiverse of Madness? Obviously some strategic changes to Strange might happen in that one, and from that teaser he's talking Multiverse.... Based on that teaser, I am officially cautiously optimistic.

    Sounds like you have a level of self realization which is putting you well on your way to doing right by your kids sir, if I'm any judge of it. I was actually raised by my grandparents, so I can fully empathize. My grandfather passed in 97, my grandmother passed in 2010. A day doesn't pass I...

    What If...?

    It might not, but then why not take a character and simply make a change to their story, WITHOUT any gender/race swapping?

    What If...?

    OK.. so far I have heard some generalized reviews. I have been holding off until the season is done for bingeability. But so far the consistent theme is : Take a white, male character... then gender and/or race swap them... then show how the gender/race swapped version is just better all...

    Life is shit, change my mind.

    You're right, life is in fact shit. The world is out to kill you from the moment you're born. Any happiness you find or experience is because either you made effort to craft a less shitty world for yourself, or someone else did. This doesn't change a single thing about your life, by the way...

    I leave the prepper work to @Mrs. Haus , although that is a point. If both stock and crypto markets correct hard that would mean even with inflation the dollar would be the "least of three evils", short of us going true old school German levels of hyperinflation. But if that happens it would...

    Yes, which is what gives me trepidation as right now every instinct I have says to be as far from $USD as humanly possible. But in the event of a market crash (Stock or Crypto) having that dry powder is very useful. So it's probably a necessary evil. Right now as the wave rides up in Crypto...

    Let me know if you find something easily workable for US citizens on this front. I'm literally at the point where I'm hoping Amazon starts dealing in BTC , just on the hope that they would have a "how would you like to process your return? Back to CC, or to a BTC wallet" and it instantly...

    Safe savings things

    I guess another question here would be how you define this "safe savings" as an amount. For me, I work off an extension of what I was taught by my grandfather growing up which was "Estimate what your total expenses for a month are, and ALWAYS have at least 6 months worth available to you". In...

    Safe savings things

    The way I see it I operate on a scale of how essential the money it. The stuff in cash/stable coins are the funds I know I need to always have stable and available (i.e. the true "emergency" fund). Above that I shift to less risk-averse storage as a means to try to grow that egg more. Also...

    Safe savings things

    I have a tiered approach.... This is for my "emergency"/stash liquidity pool. I call this pool of assets overall my "liquid fund", meaning it's assets I can easily liquidate if needed. Right now it's heavily in crypto, but with stocks, "savings", an on hand cash fund, and a very small cache...

    Watched this last night and I will have to concur with the general consensus. It was worlds better than the first one. I found the first one a passable popcorn flick, but very meh. This one I was at least entertained by the frequent enough laughs to stick with it. I do agree the second act...

    I have a small pile of LBRY but it's small enough I've essentially forgotten it exists. What's worse is I hate YouTube and want to see Odysee take off, but it's service just still isn't that good.

    It's applicable. The reason is that when people say "You need to be able to process $1.0B a day/hour/whatever in transactions" in comparison to CC networks remember that those CC networks are ALSO the Debit card networks. So essentially it's just saying the "overall economic flow requires $X...

    I disagree, you can say it for pretty much exactly that reason. They had a very diverse cast, including racial and sexual orientation diversity.. But that was never the focus of the show. Outside a few occasional jokes where the gay characters pretty much made fun of gay stereotypes.. It was...

    I loved this show so much... then they pivoted "woke" and suddenly we have the "Empathizing with Rosa being Bi", BLM nonsense, etc and I stopped. I want to say that was the first non-NBC season. If it pivots back, someone please tell me. heh

    I would disagree with him on a fundamental level in that the adoption of Bitcoin and other immutable cryptocurrencies is simply taking the ability to manipulate wealth of the individual away from the government, which should never have had it in the first place.

    Covid screwed up the filming of season 2, and there were apparently delays. If I heard right the first two episodes of this season will really be what should have been the last two episodes of last season.
