I've had a Note 8 for a while, its still in great condition and I might just get a battery for it however a new phone is always an option. I'm cheap and if I could get a really good alternative to the Note I'd do it. I use the Note for business and I actually do use the Stylus and a few of the built in Stylus features daily to have clients sign documents and a big one is smart select where I can highlight any text and it gives me a "copy/paste" option. Very important to me since I have to copy things like MAC addresses off of photos. Apple is not an option.

Love when threads get broken. I learn a lot, have fun guys.

If there was something worth mining I'd love to put some of my servers to the task. Their old so not a ton of hashes like 800-900 but I don't know much about it except that won't do much for Bitcoins.

Thats interesting, my wife handles commercial lending at her bank and they won't touch liquor stores either and I know one of the industries not allowed to get PPP or EIDL loan money was adult entertainment.

Ah, I see. Lol old shit here. Fuck Android auto then I'd disable it as well.

Is this something new? I watch videos on my Note 8 and my kids do on S9s all the time in the car. I watch many hours of video traveling to client sites every week.

Don't need it here, shady realtors and others just put your "for sale" house on CL and take vacation rent money for it and don't tell you. Its a huge problem here which blows my mind. I don't really have anything good to add except its kind of a shady practice and AirBnB's stance when things go south is "we're not a hospitality company we're just an app." Hopefully thats gotten better in the past few years, but I've heard that it can be a problem. Kinda like Uber is "just an app."

Well if there going to hold them to the law then I guess thats that, but still is it for anything else? I mean I don't think I've heard of any other purpose. Thats funny Otis, especially considering the number of people I know of who are trying to "work from home" on the site.

Bloomberg: OnlyFans to Bar Explicit Videos Starting in October. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-08-19/onlyfans-to-block-sexually-explicit-videos-starting-in-october Am I missing something? I really didn't think it was for anything else.

Yeah that's been my opinion on everything for a long time now. I probably side more with republicans but I don't agree with either side half the time on anything because of the obvious "taking sides" that goes on. I just wish we could all do things for the right reasons but both sides have gotten to the point of fanatical oppression of the others views on every issue.

This is the shit I'm talking about, Mark Cuban says doge is the best crypto, then Elon agrees a few days ago. Price rose a lot and I had friends/relatives telling me I'm missing out. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/13/mark-cuban-dogecoin-is-the-strongest-crypto-as-a-medium-of-exchange.html Then yesterday Cuban says he's only got $500 in it. Price started tanking again, ain't heard from the friends. https://fortune.com/2021/08/16/mark-cuban-dogecoin-doge-dallas-mavericks-crypto/ Bottom line, yeah you can win the lottery, but unless your on the inside knowing what these asshats are doing your probably just gonna buy at the wrong time and fuck it up.

Yeah 95 is pretty bad in direct sunlight, though not bad with a sea breeze.

Looking great! Sucks doors are back ordered, but your getting it done. Insulation will keep you busy and itchy for a little while;-) been way too busy this summer and then it gets way to hot to work outside here so I haven't done anything else to mine since getting electric and some work areas done. I'll get back to it once the first few hurricanes push the cooler weather in. I measured the inside temp at 136 when it's 95 outside and I'll fix that with ridgid insulation board over winter.
-
Looks like Mark and Elon are at it again. I'm very surprised they are involved in the pump and dump and can't understand why. Hopefully guys here are making gains and if so taking profits. Would be great opportunities if you had a good feel for when they were talking their shit.

Yes that's how scalping works, 80k is small potatoes I'm just getting started. Your not risking 80k your only at risk for maybe 5-10 minutes tops so the risk/reward ratio is about 1:1. and taking profit before anything goes wrong, your entry is on very specific buy signals and that's how I'm getting a very high win rate otherwise you'd be risking a ton to make very little. As you can see that was just trading Ford and General Electric, and WISH is just a meme stock I heard about. I didn't pick perfect days to trade those were just mornings that I wasn't doing something else and had the time. Today I traded Robinhood since it went public recently so it's full of noobs. I got in two trades for 1k gains. My goal is to replace my IT job, not get rich quick so I don't need big wins, just consistent wins that are larger than my losses. I'll eventually get to the point where I do it at least 4 days per week and 1-10 trades per day.

Get some huge dogs to guard the catalytic converters, hehe. I was doing some work at a newly opening Budget Rental location here and the cars got delivered a week before the place opened and they had half the cats cut off in those days. The regional GM guy I was onsite with said thats how its been all year with most of his locations. Its sort of a "not funny" game to find the ones that got hit each morning.

I think over time, 40K could seem like a good price but that will be determined by whether its usefulness continues and it doesn't get deprecated by some other tech, ie quantum computing blows its security out of the water and develops some much more robust digital coinage. Another major factor is going to be how regulation effects it, I stated I don't want to trade them right now due to all the BS going on, and I think regulation is a great thing for long term investors and day traders alike on these assets. Right now Its a free for all and huge sharks are stealing peoples money, the institutions who aren't involved know this and aren't investing as of yet, but once they become regulated you'll start seeing tons of ETFs and other funds set up to "invest" in them within the rules and start pushing the prices up across the board.

This summer I've been putting more mornings into day trading and this is the month of July, I tried to do a minimal amount of trading so as not to over trade since summer is low volume time anyway and hard to find good set ups and generally things are down until Sept-Oct. I forgot to enter the time of entry/exit on some of the trades and don't feel like going back through brokerage records to update it as its not really important anyway, I just like to include it so I know that the time was typically a couple of minutes. Everything is always during the high volume hours of 9:30-11:30 and I found that I don't tend to lose money if I wait until after 9:50 once the market has mostly settled and picked a trend for the day. Thats actually why July looks so green, I have sheets from May and June with some red due to trying to trade the opening, now I'm just reading news and waiting that out.

I've been at this for over 20 years and decided a long time ago that you either buy and hold in less risky things ie, ETFs, index funds, etc and let inflation and the hope that we all have a future be the reason the value goes up over a long time period. Its almost impossible to predict larger swings in price such as 2-12 months range unless its a very predictable market such as Scotts Miracle-Gro Co (SMG). They were always an "old faithful" not sure how they are trading now, but you could expect to buy them around 3rd-4th quarter and then sell by end of next years 2nd Quarter for a good 15-30% return. I'm sure there are others, Boeing (BA) used to be good, its actually at a very good price right now and something I might put long term money in. Budweiser (BUD) used to be good before the germans bought them, not sure how it does now, its been a long time since I timed markets on swing trades. OR You go for very short time frames, minutes, and day trade the shit out of the volatility on things noobs are jumping on because they don't know what the hell they are doing and it makes the chart easier to predict vs the calmer ones that the big boys using "High Frequency Traded algorithms" to move on fractions of pennies 100 times a second.

I think a compression test on a 3yr old car with relatively low miles would normally be "looking for problems that don't exist", however in this crazy market I guess its possible that your looking at a "best of whats left" situation so maybe its not to much to check it. While your looking for trouble you could get an oil analysis done as well. Being mostly serious.

You should live where 80% of people are retired. Their reaction times are so bad that two cars go at every green light, three more run the red light and someone nails someone every fucking day. Talked to paramedics here they are run ragged by old people doing stupid shit here. Not even getting into the number of times someone drives through the side of a building or front doors often killing people.

Thanks for the great info, scenario 2 is how I've always handled things with a single insurance company involved and it's always very simple. I'll give that a try as I get time to deal with it. My insurance told me I'd have to file with both anyway to get my deductible and they SF aren't going to help with that. I'll get another insurer ASAP.

Lol I totally missed that

That's what I was thinking. Anything of that era above 20 PSI at idle is probably okay. Also the Jeep is about the easiest vehicle you can work on
