Looks like Davos jump started the speed of this cycle. Since today he announced a "framework" was reached for a deal. Which would now put us at step 8 to lead into this weekend.

I'm trying to hunt down if it's real or not. But I'm seeing tweets and nonsense saying there's a second crypto bill about to plow through congress because of the money behind it, and it's going to functionally make self custody impossible by stating that all crypto must be held on government...

Talking to some of the folks in my org who are "coders" now... all in their early 20's.... And I feel this future is charging at them like Thomas the Tank Engine on a cocaine bender...

Now a days they could just set a stream of Nuvoluxe off youtube into the things.... The ultimate in "wallpaper music". Completely AI generated, always sounds somehow comfortable and familiar, while also being completely forgettable. I'll literally put it on in my car when I want to wholly...

In my case the mortgage for me is the last standing debt I have. No CC balances, no car payments... and I never racked up college debt.

Yeah, another Trump generated "buying opportunity".... Following his standard tariff playbook. A comprehensive step-by-step playbook to navigate Trump's trade war: On Friday, President Trump posts a cryptic message signaling tariffs on a specific country or sector. Markets drift lower as...

I've actually had this shop fix a different rim for me before. Cool guy and simple cracks are usually $30-50. Just annoyed that now my side project tomorrow morning will be taking the wheel off and hauling it up there in the wife's car.

The fact of it being in a bank account is part of my "speed to money" habit which came from my post depression era grandfather. It starts with that adage about "Always have 6 months of your expenses readily available in case of emergency", which for me I've always seen as something like...

Only big purchase would be the potential of "buying land away from town to build the forever house on" and that's a far larger scale than what's left. It's also probably something I'd cash out my outsized bucket of stock in my current company to do. But I am also in my mid 50's so looking at...

When I had around a nice car left, I meant in the principal, and if $50k is what it takes to get a nice car now, then it's less than a nice car left.... Around $36k

My daily driver is a full sized corsair mechanical with round keycaps on it.

Yeah, exactly how is the slicer or the printer going to know that the random plastic object it's fabricating is part of a gun? I mean, you might do something where the slicer sends it to an AI to identify, but then just make sure the slicer/printer don't have internet connections and you're golden.

I have mostly generic rounds. With a few "year of the <whatever>" rounds throw in for variety. A solid silver coin makes a treat card cover when playing poker.
