Back when walk up ATMs were a more popular thing I used to say that the dork in front ot me was trying to get a small business loan through the ATM and taking half an hour or more.

I have always been extremely long on most of my stuff in the market. I have known a couple of people that just divested of most of their stuff and later got back in. Seemed like a big toll to play to try and time it right. I have a little that I take in and out and more "go with the flow' but...

They all look good in a trailer. Traffic in a trailer is one thing, in game is another. Of course real life traffic control is pretty fubar as well so maybe they are simulating that.

15 hands to 12 hands give or take in horse people talk.

It's been up and down in the various sub sectors of the industry sector since the conflict in Iran started. But I mentioned it here that refining had been up 30% or so for the year before things in Iran started. Midstream (pipelines) had really been on a roller coast. Energy is still up >30 %...

Mostly healthcare workers on the last one.

Not the price of oil but the energy sector is up more than 30% YTD. Did not see that coming at the start of the year. Crude down 15% early.

WalMart has a sign when you enter that petroleum products are going up in price. Stuff like bath soap, dishwashing soap, etc... they had a really long list and I skipped it.

Sulphur was another, but no idea what it is used for. Gunpowder but I am not sure that is the issue. A large issue in the US is plants shutting down and the rest contracting to the US.

A lot of stuff that are a physical product have some tie in to not only energy/oil but stuff made in related petro chemical. Everything from tires, fertilizer, plastics etc. all start at a refinery then off to a chem plant (often adjacent to a refinery) via feed stocks and onto to whatever...

It's not just mental. But my hands feel like blocks, you can feel them but nothing like you do when you don't take it. Kinda numb. I know when I first was prescribed it I looked it up and you could spend days reading all the side effects people menton. When I first started I had major problems...

Someone made a video, just a guess.

Now at 3600mg a day on gabapentin and it really slows down your brain. It really helps with the pain but it feels like you are a rock or mud moving in a mud slide. I had to start wearing a watch to keep up with the time. I guess all medication has an upside and down side. I feel like I'm an hour...

Point being a LOT of people talk about like it was super rich white guys that just had a thing/experiment and had nothing to lose because it was all shifted to other people under them. Just a guess they had significant money/wealth before they even came to North America and what would later...

Someone sent me a meme a while back. When the auto correct keeps changing how you spell something so you use another word entirely. I normally have that off because when I send a work text or email it is totally lost.

First race to the moon we had to deal with the Cubans. Deja vu.

So at some point we will get a human police force that their job is take down rogue AI/robot stuff. Seems like I've seen that in numerous movies, ahead of their time I guess. Tom Selleck and Gene Simmons did one in 1984.

Well after the talk last night futures for oil this morning are up almost 10% in the premarket futures.

Companies are picking up the same thing Amazon does and has for a while. The price you see aren't always what others see. Also if you put something in your cart and don't buy it they will sometimes lower the price to entice you to buy it and then if you don't it goes back up, sometimes more than...

Any guesses that the return to the moon will cost more adjusted for inflation than we spent in the entire decade of the 60s to get their the first time?

If you are up early enough the last week or so futures have been up and Trump would release something on his social site at 4am and then it would pull back some, until this week it stayed up. Seems a lot of investors are buying into the hype that the war is going away soon. If the strait opened...

Looking online at walmart they have reviews and AI summer of reviews. I needed a super cheap watch when I'm outside, on the lawnmower and was just going to buy one and have it delivered when the AI summary caught my eye. Reviewers find this item is too lose for large wrist and too tight for...

Congrats. I got to 96 once and died. That pretty much killed off my desire to go further. Of course not dying would have been the key take away.

Nike down 10% in futures. Said the Iran war is hitting them on Chinese and Europe sales.

It looks like a fantastic game, kinda worried about the combat but that's a me thing.

Is Octavian a guy that used to make PoE videos and did not work for GGG at the time or different guy?

I'm sure it varies a lot from state to state. I sold a house in TX myself. It was super easy. I paid a title company and they took care of all the paperwork and had a deal explaining all the things I had to do, when to do it, where to do it and so forth. I'm not sure they are all like that. I...

I've watched a little of the game so far. I will say it looks fantastic and appears to have a huge amount of stuff to do. The mechanics aren't for me but it does look great.

We did it for several years, bringing in a dozen or more deer a week from the end of season till bucks started dropping their antlers and we couldn't tell buck from doe at night under a spotlight. But the local food bank in a town of 30k said stop, it was offensive to people down on their luck...

I know there are adapters to fit a phone and some of those produce some good shots of the moon and some of the planets through a dob. I have seen some pics from an iphone and they work out great. I know everyone scoffs at this idea. But a planisphere or a smart phone app, a cheap pair of...

It happens here. Mostly because someone having a cow butchered or side of beef butchered is either local or bought it from someone local they get what they asked for. But a lot of deer are processed for people that drop it off and never come back till the day they pick it up some time later and...

I've built a number of computers going back 20 years or more. I gotta tell you just trying out some of the popular LED apps made building a computer look like elementary school. They definitely go for the most difficult for the smallest result theme. At first I just wanted to be able to turn...

Skip the $100k video card and go with hookers and blow.

Had to look it up. A dob mounted scope will not have the tracking to take deep sky pics. You can take moon, some plants like Saturn and such. Fitting a camera, either smartphone or a CCD scope to that is beyond my thing. WWW.cloudynights.com is a great place to look up stuff under various...

Corporations are not there to employ people. They are there to make money for share/stake holders. If they want otherwise go to work for a private company or become self employed. Sucks, but that is the way things work and have for a very long time. If corporations couold make the same profit...

Just because they ask for certain cuts to be ground doesn't mean you have to give them that cut ground. They won't know the difference. It's pretty common here with things like deer someone will say they are just going to make sausage and want it ground in with something else like beef or hog...

Lot of shit with subs now. I was looking for a program to control fan speed and LEDs in a computer. One of them the LED part was free but the fan control was a monthly sub. Umm no.
