    One Piece

    As for timing, from what I hear they're already filming the next season, so hopefully they're realizing these multi-year gaps don't work well when you have flesh and blood actors.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    OK, question in case someone knows this... Do the mobs still scale up HP if there are multiple people fighting them? It kinda feels like that. And my usual Sunday afternoon nonsense in the game is my wife and I running some delves and prey runs. Also, funny when you're paired up and do...

    True, option 2, even if not giving you your goal gives you at a minimum experience and hopefully some salty but funny stories. As I have heard said, few people lay on their death beds bemoaning the risks they took, but many regret the things they never tried. Now with that all said, we are a...

    Bottom line reality here. You have three possible paths : Try and succeed Try and fail Don't try If your goal is to be in a happy and loving relationship now or in the future then "Don't Try" is the one path which will never get you there. Option 2 hurts a lot, Option 3 is a slow miserable...

    Dating

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    We have those where I work, we call them boomerangs. As @ShakyJake mentioned, sometimes there is a definite "grass is greener" effect. In my company's case, it is often they go to chase startup money/stock and it doesn't pan out. My company though... it's facing a situation now where they did...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    When allowed to work without government interference being orchestrated by business (i.e. "Crony Capitalism")? Surprisingly well. The argument from the banks is that they don't want to allow exchanges to simply offer the yield they get on stablecoins in their exchange to simply flow to the...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    They haven't won quite yet.... The coinbase CEO basically flipped the double bird on the deal today. This tweet explains it pretty well and is my exact stance on it. This needs to be a decision made by the market. Which will piss off the banks.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    So apparently the company which does $USDC (Circle) dropped 18% in market cap. The reason? The "Compromise" they came up with for the upcoming cypto legislation that was supposed to give clarity to the crypto industry is now that you aren't allowed to pay yield or interest on stablecoin...
