Was a fan till they did the helm of the tracker.

I know he had problems going way back. I listened to his pod cast once and he was talking about when he first started doing Dilbert or maybe before he couldn't talk for a year or two. He finally found a Dr. that knew what was causeing the issue. I know cancer is different but from his podcast...

Large percentage of the shit I get recommended on youtube now is AI pure crap. I clicked on one and forget how accurate or inaccurage it was totally was mispronouncing the words. It was on Chevrolet and they have CH like chew at the front. Not youtube making that crap but they should find a way...

Moving at such a high seems like an uber risky move. Kind of buy high and sell low but make it up in bulk kind of a deal. I don't own any silver but have kind of been watching for a while just to see what was going to happen. I used to buy silver rounds pretty often but stopped almost 15 years...

Silver futures $83. About what silver was when CME upped the margin requirements.

My guitar came in a few days ago and had to go back to sweetwater. I'm sure they will make it okay.

There were rumors the reason CME upperd the margin requirements twice was to protect a large bank that had shorted silver. Of course it was nothing more than a rumor. Seemed like an odd time to short when several things were going on in the favor of silver. Usage in a variety of tech that was...

I have a 5070ti. It does all I want at 1440. Of course I don't play many cutting edge games. Games will have to come out with something new and near revolutionary for me to want to upgrade.

Been self employed most of my adult life. Few times took a year long contract and worked on site for a company. I should unionize lol. Early in my career one shop unionized I worked at. They put a large sign X job paid Y. That didn't last long at all. Some guys realized they were better than...

The geese know what it is going on. Friday morning about 1am I heard a lot of geese flying overhead leaving the nearby lake. At first I thought maybe someone was night fishing but seemed odd for this time of year for someone to be out night fishing at 1 a.m. Then 4 a.m.giant downpour and hail...

They didn't pop out the first time I looked. Now when I look it's super obvious, is it just for light behing that close to the celing?

I wouldn' mind an off center door. One, nobody comes to my house. The second reason if they did I give them an intricate reason on how I had to move it to make way for the supports to withstand a 1000 year seismic event or some other long bullshit thing and see what they did.

I peek in on the silver bugs from time to time. A couple of places were "out" of rounds and bars a while back. It cleared up. I think shops got spooked and didn't want to get caught holding silver if the bottom really fell out, took a cut but the bottom didn't fall out. But buying bars and...

Southwest MS today high of near 80. Guessing near the same for Baton Rouge and New Orleans and possibly near that around Houston.

I wonder how long companies like Chevron can turn it around since it's been almost 20 years. A quick search showed 800k barrels of oil exported per day in 2024. The Motiva refinery in TX refines 600k plus barrels a day (the largest refinery but still only one refinery). A lot of upgrading needs...

Not really an invention but a marketing idea. I was told by the salesman it was a terrible idea, I think I was right. When shopping for a new bass boat you go to a dealer and they have you get in the boat to show you how large the front deck is, called a flipping deck. Normally the owner fishes...

Yes and no. I know what I have now. Other than the diabetes which I have never had much issue with keeping my A1C in the 5s which is borderline non diabetic/pre diabetic. The other stuff is normally treated with corticosteroids, which raises my blood sugar. The doctor that referred me to the...

Guys that work in the maintenance shop at Exxon are all blue collar workers. Welding, fitting, burning, etc...It's air conditioned and you have a job for life if you don't fail a drug test or punch out a coworker. My friend in school his dad was a boiler maker there and he sent his kid to...

A "welder" that is making $48k a year is known as a "tacker", not a welder. I know a pipeline welder that paid off his house in 5 years then got married and had kids. Note, married after he paid off the house lol. I know the placed I worked a decade ago their welders that could do high nickel...

Don't think I ever said what my final diagnosis was. MAC. Multiple Autoimmune Condition. They have a chart, type 1,2, or 3. I have several from 2 and 3. Diabetes near all my life but the others all at once. Doctors at the mayo says it just happens. They have an auto immune clinic there. Type 1...

I think states take control of certain assets that have been abondened or idle for a certain period. But at least in the states I have lived in once a year they publish the names of all the people that need to claim whatever. A few years ago I was on the list and got a final check that I think I...

Tell me this isn't sad. D4 made such an impression I had to download battle.net to see if I had ever bought it. I did lol.

I give it another day or I'm going to have to get off the amitriptyline. It is working I guess. I j ust sit here not thinking of anything. Of course that's when I am awake. 5 days and still in the sleep all night and all day mode. I don't get stuck thinking about the future with MAS as it is...

I use a 5070ti. I have a 5060 and 5060ti that were barely used. Also a 3060ti. I should get motivated to unload them just like the memory I have. I thought I would keep one in case my card goes tits up. I've never sold anything on ebay and facebook marketplace really doesn't exist here.

I saw my niece at Christmas, it's still up in the air. It's in a very small town that also has a directional college (it may be adjacent I can't remember). But 3+ hours away from home and they wouldn't know anyone which is the complaint her son had about it. Especially the first year he wouldn't...

I tried amitriptyline in the past and could not take it all. Drs. are big on it and others that are anti depressent and help with nerve pain. So I decided to try it again. It's much different this time, no idea why. I hope after taking it for a while the sleeping 20 hours a day go away. Doctor...

Everything takes memory nowdays from the coffee maker onwards. Memory makes are going to pivot to whatever pays the most. But for the low low cost of whatever $$ per month you can lease computer time.

There's a giant hole to fall into that you had no idea weas here? Cool.

Well that didn't last lol. Was up to almost $78 for a while. Chicago Mercantile Exchange upped margin requirements again, second time in a week...

At noon now, silver up 10%.

Chicago Mercantile Exchange changed requirements for margin on silver going into Monday. Silver and gold up in futures.

People ask me about markets from time to time. I'm not a big investor at all. I have money in the market in index etfs and some stock inherited. I have noticed a number of people if they don't have a reasonable idea of how much money you make because your job title/description means nothing to...

I use Fidelity. One thing that happened to me that I put in their plus. I had an issue with my account and I called them after normal business hours. I talked to a real live human that was an english speaker from South Carolina I think. She got the problem fixed in minutes. Silver looks like it...

When the board had a guild several years ago playing EQ I used the ranger epic to slow crap, until i bought a shaman from someone in game for next to nothing. Then I no longer needed a guild/group lol. The haste weapon was replaced a long time ago, but when it was new it was great.

Silver spot up 11% today to almost $80/ounce. Crazy to the moon, expecting a large downturn "eventually" lol.

Just mentioned spot for silver was $70/troy ounce. Well bounced around $75 already earlier. It was $28 at the start of the year.

Rustled because of brisket. Okay.

Might have been an all time high here in southwest MS for Christmas. I didn't look earlier but they said earlier it was probably. Pretty warm, not as hot as it was the year my grandfather caught the pasture on fire burning trash on Christmas and we had to put it out. Pretty hot.
