    Health Problems

    Yeah, I've been thinning since my 20's. I just embrace it now. Unrelated, as I mentioned a while back, I had an abscess on my hip that put me in a hospital overnight. It opened and drained (which is how these things have worked for me in the past), and usually the next step is the remaining...

    Yeah, I will hear something interesting come across it in the background every now and again. But it's mostly deep nerdery/geekery for very comic and gaming centric folks.

    Nerdrotic has an entire ecosystem of other blogger/vlogger/whatevers, including a couple women. They do this show called "Friday Night Tights", and it's big enough and has enough fans that they are apparently now doing in person meetups. If their reporting on it is accurate, they're getting...

    IIRC he's been in Vegas for a meet and greet with a bunch of his followers/fans. Which is why this had generic backdrop. He's pretty passionate about a few specific things, this was one of them, and there's no way he wasn't doing a video about the trailer drop. So it makes some sense.

    I've got one of these, but I just treat all slots as "am" since I only take prescriptions once a day. But yeah, you dread having one, you make jokes about needing one, but once you have one, you will end considering it like an extra vital appendage. heh

    Why would they put that level of effort in? If you're carpet bombing text smishing you just throw at everybody. I've gotten attempts like this involving "bank account access" for banks I have never had accounts with.

    I love getting scam texts like these.... And thinking to myself... They're sure doing a lot of work for a coinbase account with currently around $9 of scraps in it. Times must be rough for em.

    I wish I didn't agree with your underlying assertion here as much as I do. That's one reason Trump needs to overload the thing and win fast if he's going to fight this fight. If it becomes really protracted then public opinion will hammer Trump, which he does care about.

    I'd say to dig out whatever is loose/soft and see if it's really a hole through, or just as you suspected a poorly mixed area. Once you know that patching shouldn't be too difficult.

    It's KNOWN that other have partial ownership of the gold reserves. It was one of the things about us becoming the reserve currency had somehow also involved many countries storing gold with us.

    I think one of the points is that the standard story setups are all so generic. Because you're really watching to see what the characters you have interest in would do at said generic event to go to... Please don't post Sakamoto Days spoilers yet... I'm not done with the season.

    Well, with the markets closed now... Yes, we closed friday in the green overall. But I don't think it was in the green enough to justify calling a significant bullish tidal shift, IMHO. We didn't recover to Wednesday's high for instance. So I'm not calling the "absolute win" here. But...

    Well, with a default reserve currency, we're getting back to the core of what "money" is. It just has to be something all parties involved agree has an intrinsic value representation as a proxy for things of value (be that goods, service, whatever). The market/world seems to agree that BTC...

    You say gold is illiquid, but countries deal in gold reserves still to this day. It's just become unpegged from the currency valuation directly due to FIAT currency becoming en vogue. For instance : In China, they have a lot of gold in the ground, but don't have a lot of companies that are...

    I have my suspicions.. and well... if you look over here.... See above as one alternative. And as much as many of us dream of the day of BTC being the default for reserves the fact that no country (or group of countries) controls it means they probably won't accept/embrace it for something...

    How it will cause problems is that the T bond rates go up when people sell/dump them, because of how T bonds work. This becomes an issue because when the US needs to issue new debt, or refinance existing debt, it has to sell bonds on the bond market. When it does it has to pay interest on...
